Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 452

The early morning light poured into the room. Nathaniel woke up on the bed in the lounge. He had removed his suit jacket, and he was left with a thin shirt that accentuated his well–defined abdominal

muscles.

Nathaniel had a headache from the hangover. He sat up and shook his head gently.

Did I come here to rest when I was drunk last night?

He recalled making several phone calls to Christina, but she did not answer any of them. This made feel Nathaniel a sense of frustration.

He entered the bathroom to take a shower and changed into a new suit. Nathaniel combed his short hair back, revealing his handsome facial features. He walked out after tying his necktie.

The office had been tidied up, and the scent of air freshener lingered in the air.

Sebastian walked in with a file in one hand and breakfast in the other. He placed them on the desk. “Mr. Hadley, there is a meeting in fifteen minutes.”

Faintly nodding, Nathaniel sat and ate his breakfast in an elegant manner.

He felt much better after filling his stomach.

Sebastian was reporting on the work schedule for today when the sound of the door opening cut him off. “Mrs. Hadley…”

Christina walked in with a colder expression than usual. “I’ll be quick, so as not to waste your time.”

She walked up to Nathaniel and threw the printed document she was holding in front of him. “Sign it, Nathaniel!”

The words “Divorce Agreement” could be boldly seen in the brightly lit room.

Sebastian, who was standing at the side, saw it clearly.

Oh no! Mrs. Hadley is seeking a divorce early this morning. I’ll be the one suffering if Mr. Hadley is in a bad mood.

“Mr. Hadley, I shan’t keep you from your work then. I’ll… get back to work.” As his words fell, Sebastian could not wait to leave the office.

The office was so quiet that not even breathing could be heard once the door closed.

Nathaniel’s expression darkened, and he grimly fixed his eyes on her. “Christina, do you think it’s fun to repeatedly blackmail me with divorce?”

Christina found it ridiculous. How am I blackmailing him when he and Madison were the ones who wanted to make vows to each other? I’m letting them have what they want.

Madison’s words from last night were still echoing in her ears.

She narrowed her eyes, which were devoid of emotions. “I’m not. I sincerely want a divorce every time I bring it up.”

She’s saying she sincerely wants a divorce?

Nathaniel had never been threatened repeatedly in his life.

He got to his feet at once. His strapping figure move toward Christina with an imposing aura. “Have you thought it through?” Nathaniel uttered those words through gritted teeth.

His imposing demeanor momentarily stunned Christina, but she was not scared. She said firmly, “I’ve made up my mind a long time ago.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Nathaniel raised his sturdy arms and grasped her wrists firmly.

He did not use much strength, but it was enough to hold her in place. Nathaniel replied icily, “Don’t think I don’t dare to divorce you!”

Christina met his piercing gaze. His rage was like a flame trying to burn and reduce her into ashes.

Despite her fear and anger, she had no reason to back down. “I wish you would just sign the papers.”

Nathaniel did not expect her to be so determined and unwavering in her resolve.

He gave a self–deprecating nod. “There are still a lot of details in a divorce agreement. I’ll have the lawyer go over each one with you one by one.”

“No need. I don’t want anything else besides the two children. I’ll leave without taking a single penny,” Christina stated calmly as if she had already thought of all the possible ways to respond.

The more determined she appeared; the angrier Nathaniel felt.

Christina, are you really so desperate for a divorce? I’m not going to let you have your way.

Christina seemed to have let go of all her defenses. She wrapped her arms around her shoulders, and melancholy filled her eyes. I need to sort out my emotions quickly.
