Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 334

Nathaniel spoke to himself, disregarding whether Christina was listening.

“You must’ve been exhausted, wandering around with the children all these years. Don’t leave again now that you’re back. I’ll make it up to you.”

Christina discreetly clenched her fists. Recalling the scene she had witnessed at the amusement park, she felt as if someone had dug out her heart and shattered it. Is he planning to make it up to me by getting back together with Madison behind my back? If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would’ve believed his lies,

Clarity washed over her at long last. Nathaniel wanted to have his cake and eat it too.

“I apologize for all the wrong things I’ve done in the past. Will you forgive me and stop being angry?” Nathaniel’s voice suddenly sounded particularly clear after he turned off the hairdryer.

Christina’s palm was almost bleeding from her digging her fingernails into her flesh. A dark glint flitted across her eyes as she remained silent.

Nathaniel found her thoughts even more elusive. He suddenly squatted down and gazed sincerely at Christina’s face. “Will you give me another chance?”

No one would have expected Nathaniel, one of the most elite people in society, to speak in such an obsequious tone.

Christina’s eyebrows twitched. A hint of emotion flashed across her eyes. “I haven’t made a decision yet. Can you not pressure me?”

Not having made a decision means she’s not refusing.

Nathaniel nodded. Compared to her previous attitude, her current demeanor was much better.

He thought to himself that as long as she was by his side, she would eventually accept him again. “I’ll carry you back to bed.”

With his sturdy arms, Nathaniel effortlessly picked up Christina and walked toward the bed.

After placing her down, he also climbed into bed.

As usual, he held her in his arms, and they drifted off to sleep together.

The next day, Christina was woken up by the alarm clock.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Nathaniel’s handsome and serene sleeping countenance. He usually gets up early, so why isn’t he up yet today?

She felt nothing was more awkward than that moment.

Christina moved slightly, intending to get out of bed. Just as she sat up, Nathaniel pulled her back into his

embrace.

“It’s the weekend. Let’s sleep in.” His hoarse voice sounded beside her ears.

Christina flinched. “I want to get up already”

Still, he showed no intention of letting go and merely asked indifferently, “Are you hungry?”

“Yes.” In fact, she wasn’t. She just didn’t want to snuggle in his embrace while she was sober, reinforcing their wonderful memories together.

“All right,” Nathaniel drawled before reluctantly loosening his hold on her.

Christina immediately sat up like an animal escaping a hunter’s trap.

She grabbed her clothes from the wardrobe and rushed into the bathroom.

When she came out. Nathaniel had woken up as well. One of them sat at the dressing table while the other changed his clothes at the side, carrying out activities of daily living like a typical couple.

Nathaniel donned a new suit and stepped out of the room. He saw Lucas waiting by the door like a sentinel.

“Daddy, it’s the weekend. Aren’t you staying home?”

Nathaniel bent down slightly, lifting Lucas into his arms. “Daddy has to work.”

“Ah…” Lucas pouted in disappointment. “Well, no one will be keeping me company today, then. Hmph.”

“Isn’t Mommy accompanying you?” Nathaniel rubbed his son’s puffed-out cheeks.
