Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 349

“What are you getting at? Do you not trust me?” Christina froze momentarily. I’m already leaving the children behind at Scenic Garden Manor, so it proves I have no choice but to leave for a while. If I were to leave and not return, I would bring the children with me.

Nathaniel’s eyes shone with determination when he answered, “It’s not that I don’t trust you. I’m just worried about you… Also, I want to help you.”

Christina stared at him dubiously.

Nathaniel was worried about her, but that was only one of the reasons he was refusing to let her leave. The other reason was that he couldn’t trust Francis or Yosef.

“I don’t need you to worry about me. If you want to help, please help me look after Camila and Lucas while I’m away” Christina wanted to leave with her luggage in her grip.

However, the man before her wouldn’t budge.

Christina then bit her lip lightly and grumbled. “If you stop me, you’ll only remind me of the time when you kept me in Scenic Garden Manor against my will! Do you want me to recall how domineering, ruthless, and annoying you were?”

Christina’s words were as sharp as daggers.

Although they had already cleared up most of the misunderstandings between them, Christina was still brooding over the things he did to her back then.

Nathaniel knew Christina was angry, but he was worried about letting her travel abroad on her own.

After mulling over it for a while, he said. “You can go, but you must let me assign you a bodyguard to keep you safe. He won’t stop you from doing anything. His only job is to protect you.”

Is he really sending someone to monitor me? Christina wasn’t pleased.

Before Christina could utter a word in response, Nathaniel said authoritatively. “If you don’t let me do that, I won’t let you leave.”

Christina checked the time and noticed that she was late by almost half an hour. Since she couldn’t convince him otherwise, she had to give in.

“Fine. I need to leave now,” Christina responded. Well, I guess it’s good to have someone protecting me. After all, dangerous situations might arise when I’m abroad.

“I’ll get the driver to send you to the airport and arrange a private plane for you,” he said.

“Okay.”

Christina was in contact with Yosef when she was at the airport.

Apparently, plenty of imitation model products were found in their studio. Since they were making. high- end commissions for their clients, they had all signed non-disclosure contracts.

Hence, the appearance of imitations could be considered as them breaching the contracts. If that were the case, they would be forced to compensate their clients.

Due to the enormous amount of money involved, the studio could be forced to go belly up.

Suddenly, a deep and magnetic voice of a man rang out. “The plane is ready, Ms. Steele.”

Christina lifted her gaze and saw a tall man standing before her.

The man was wearing black casual clothes, a mask, and a pair of sunglasses. He was almost all covered up and had short yellow hair.

“A-Are you the bodyguard Nathaniel sent to protect me?” Christina queried.

The man nodded slightly. “Yes. Is there a problem?”

Christina had seen most of Nathaniel’s bodyguards, but she had never seen one looking as eccentric as the man before her eyes. Is there some kind of mistake?

Upon noticing the dubious look on Christina’s face, the man whipped out his employee ID and gave it to her. “This is my employee ID. If you don’t trust me, feel free to call Mr. Hadley.”

Even though the man was wearing a pair of sunglasses, Christina could still sense his sharp gaze.

Nevertheless, she took the employee ID from him, and it read: Yael Grealish.

While standing before the man, Christina texted Nathaniel for confirmation.

Soon, she received a text saying that the man before her was the most experienced bodyguard Nathaniel
