Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 403

“I had to hold a meeting because something cropped up before the end of the workday,” Nathaniel explained, his tone devoid of confidence,

Christina narrowed her eyes. “Is that so? How come I was not aware of it?”

As Christina had worked as his secretary for a few days, she could track his schedule on her tablet.

“It was a last-minute meeting, so it wasn’t on the schedule. There’ll be more meetings for me to attend in the next few days,” Nathaniel said.

Christina shrugged, understanding that work matters could be unpredictable. She decided not to make a big deal out of it.

Upon hearing that, Sebastian whispered in Nathaniel’s ear, “Mr. Hadley, should we cancel Mrs. Hadley’s assistant account?”

He understood no man would enjoy being constantly monitored by their wife.

“It’s all right,” Nathaniel firmly declined. “You can go home now.”

Sebastian froze for a moment before agreeing and leaving Scenic Garden Manor.

Christina refrained from mentioning Madison in front of Nathaniel.

Even though it was not in their best interest to allow Camila to have frequent interactions with Madison, it would not be fair to remove Camila from the ballet class solely based on her skepticism toward Madison.. After all, Camila had a deep passion for ballet.

When Christina went upstairs, thinking of a way to explain things to Camila, her room door was pushed.

open.

The petite Camila stepped out, gazing up at Christina with her eyes twinkling like a princess in a fairytale “Mommy, I don’t want to attend ballet classes anymore.”

“What’s the matter? Didn’t you enjoy performing today?” Christina squatted down and asked out of curiosity.

Camila bit her lip. “Because I don’t like Ms. Taggart.”

Christina took a deep breath. Bailey must have said something to Camila.

“You should continue if you enjoy dancing. Don’t worry about the teacher, okay?” Christina stroked her head, her eyes brimming with tenderness.

Camila nodded, seemingly understanding her mother’s advice. “Mommy, please sign me up in a different dance studio then. My friend Shannara told me her mommy has also signed her up in a dance studio.”

“All right. I’ll definitely hire a professional teacher for you,” Christina agreed.

Camila inched closer and wrapped her hands around Christina’s neck. “Thank you, Mommy.”

Christina felt a wave of relief knowing that Camila could still participate in ballet classes without having to interact with Madison.

Sebastian walked over with a stack of documents, placing them on the desk. “Mr. Hadley, these are the documents about all the assets under Gibson Corporation”

Nathaniel picked up the top document and began scanning through the pages, his eyes gradually growing

darker.

He inquired. “So Gibson Corporation has a tile factory? And it seems they have had a business collaboration with Hadley Corporation in the past.”

Sebastian retrieved the file, took a closer look at the factory name, and searched for more information about it.

“Yes, we did, a few years ago. I’m surprised you still remember it, Mr. Hadley.” Sebastian was taken aback.

It was uncommon for someone to remember something that had happened so long ago.

Nathaniel’s eyes turned cold, and he spoke in a deep voice. “That’s because the tiles Hadley Corporation used from that company in one of our commercial complexes led to multiple complaints from tenants. We had to replace the tiles to resolve the issue.”

The incident made a lasting impact on him as Hadley Corporation had always upheld a strong reputation throughout the years.

He recalled how he had to deal with the procurement manager and issued an order that Hadley. Corporation would not engage in any future collaborations with that manufacturer.

Sebastian found himself caught in a dilemma. “But holding them accountable now would be difficult since so many years have passed.”
