Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 582

The advice Nathaniel offered wasn't to encourage Christina to confront Winston directly. He simply wanted to let her know he would do whatever it took to fulfill her desires.

Even if he had to pay a dear price, he would safeguard her.

Having spent a long time with Nathaniel, Christina had reached a level of tacit understanding with him and was willing to accept his intention.

“I know what to do.” A hint of haughtiness flashed across her eyes as she blinked. “If I acquire important clues from Winston about the past, fail to control myself, and end up crippling him, you have to protect me.”

Nathaniel scratched her palm lightly with his fingers. “Do as you please. Winston won't dare to cause you any harm.”

“Where's the lounge? Let's hurry over.” Christina could hardly suppress her excitement to stir up trouble, yearning to meet the well- known figure, Winston, in person.

Nathaniel held Christina in a protective stance while leading her toward the lounge.

When the two were passing through a garden, they heard a commotion resonating across the night sky.

Christina didn't want to meddle in others’ affairs, but one of the voices sounded too familiar.

She stopped in her tracks and turned toward the source of the noise.

Nathaniel frowned. “Christina, do you want to go over and watch what's happening?”

Now that Christina was pregnant, Nathaniel wasn't fond of her mingling in crowded and chaotic places. After all, if there was any pushing or uproar, she might easily get hurt by accident.

The high-end banquet venue was filled with members from prestigious families and celebrities. Arguments were commonly seen during such occasions as those elites of the society fought to be in the limelight. Bullying others on the spot had become a norm for them to satisfy their desire for victory.

Christina uttered, “I think I just heard Bailey's voice. I have to go over and take a look.”

She quickly slipped out of Nathaniel's arms and hastened toward the center of the ruckus.

Nathaniel trailed behind her expressionlessly.

When Christina arrived, the area around the pool was already crowded with onlookers.

Two beautiful women were brawling, one of them straddling the other. The woman on top pulled the hair of the woman beneath her and repeatedly slapped the latter while incessantly hurling insults. “Julian is my fiancé, and everyone knows about this. Aren't you a daredevil for having the guts to seduce my man under my watch? You even climbed into bed with him. I've arranged for someone to follow you for some time now. You could've done anything else, yet you chose to be a despisable mistress. Since you're so adept at seducing men, I suppose you must've slept with countless of them all the time. The Cook family has done a poor job raising their daughter. I'll flay you today and help your parents teach you a lesson about dignity and self-respect, you shameless woman!”

Christina pushed her way through the crowd, and the sight before her made her gasp.

The person being bullied and pinned down was Bailey.

Bailey's makeup was ruined, and there was even a scratch on her face, smearing her countenance with blood.

Even worse, Bailey's dress was drenched in alcohol and torn to shreds, leaving her body barely covered.

Nonetheless, the woman hitting Bailey was unrelenting. Her ferocious demeanor appeared no different from a crazy woman. The onlookers were all enjoying the spectacle, and none stepped forward to break up the fight.

“Tl kill you!” That woman strangled Bailey with all her might using both her hands.

Bailey's face was turning purple. She was absolutely no match for her opponent. “Let... go of me. Help!”

Christina was enraged. She picked up a bottle of wine on the table and flung it at the woman's back.
