Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 332

A raspy voice sounded in Christina’s ears like a calm string being plucked.

She lay quietly on the bed, unable to move a muscle. Like a cat returning to its den after hunting for food, Christina curled herself up and let Nathaniel hug her.

As the wind blew outside the window, the clouds moved briskly while the moonlight beamed on the bedroom carpet, creating a picturesque scene.

Nathaniel shut his eyes and enjoyed the familiar scent, his lips curling up instinctively.

When Christina woke up in the morning, he was no longer in bed. However, the lingering warmth did not dissipate completely.

She got herself changed before heading downstairs.

When Raymond saw her, he smiled and announced, “Mrs. Hadley, breakfast is ready. Mr. Hadley has just left to send Mr. Lucas and Ms. Camila to the kindergarten.”

Raymond felt that the duo had returned to old times when Nathaniel requested the kitchen to prepare Christina’s favorite cakes early in the morning.

“Okay.”

After breakfast. Christina left for the office. When she was about to enter the elevator, she ran into Madison. What a small world!

The latter looked awful. The dark circles under her eyes were so obvious, and she seemed lethargic.

Madison had spent the whole of last night at the police station. She was only released in the morning after completing a series of procedures.

She went home, hurriedly got changed, and rushed to the office without blowing her hair dry.

“I thought you’d disappear for a few days.” Hostility laced Christina’s voice.

An exasperated Madison clenched her fingers and gritted her teeth. Yet, she plastered a smile on her face and responded, “I don’t need to be detained. After all, I can still afford a lawyer.”

“I see. I’m not surprised that some people can speak against their conscience in this day and age.”

Then the elevator reached the twenty-first floor, and Christina walked out nonchalantly when the door opened.

Madison fixed her eyes on Christina’s back. At that moment, she secretly wished she could push Christina down the stairs and get rid of her once and for all.

Christina’s return was clearly a threat to Madison. How could the latter not turn green with envy at someone who could easily tug at Nathaniel’s heartstrings and affect his emotions all the time?

Madison pondered deeply over the matter the entire night. She thought about two guaranteed ways to easily defeat that woman with children.

One way is to let her find out about her husband’s affair with another woman, but this alone would not suffice in sending Christina into a frenzy. Another way is for her to discover Nathaniel’s illegitimate child…

A vicious look flashed past Madison’s eyes.

In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend again. Christina promised to bring her children to the amusement park.

The trio happily donned their matching outfits-a red striped shirt. Christina and Camila paired their tops with a white skirt, whereas Lucas wore it with a pair of casual white shorts.

When they arrived at the amusement park, Christina bought them a lollipop each before getting the entrance tickets.

Camila held the lollipop that was bigger than her puffy little face and asked, “Mommy, why don’t we ask Daddy to come with us?”

Christina chuckled and feigned nonchalance. She did not want to see that man, but she would never say that in front of her children. “It’s because Daddy is busy working. He’s got no free time, so we have to be more understanding toward him, okay?”

Right then, comprehension dawned on the children, and they nodded in response. “We totally understand. It’s the same when you were working and couldn’t accompany us in the past.”

Relieved, Christina patted them on the head. “Come, let’s go in and have fun!”

The lively music reverberated through the vast skies. Everyone who entered the amusement park had cheerful smiles on their faces.
