Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth novel Chapter 93

Christina looked like a little squirrel emerging from hibernation when chomping on the meat. Engrossed in watching her cat, Nathaniel felt his appetite improve as well.

“Is it nice?”

“Yeah.” mumbled Christina. As her mouth was stuffed with food, she could not pronounce the words. clearly and sounded like a toddler speaking.

“I’ll continue sending them to you tomorrow.”

Just when Christina was about to speak, someone suddenly pushed the door open. She quickly ended the call in surprise.

“Don’t you know how to knock?” She was unhappy. After all, knocking before entering is an act of basic courtesy.

Caroline replied nonchalantly, “I forgot.”

In reality, she had done it on purpose.

What qualifications do an inexperienced designer who got transferred from Team A have to become Team B’s leader? Rumors have it that she forced Yosef away to strive for the position of team leader. I will never respect someone like that.

Taking in Caroline’s flippant look, Christina could sense the disrespect coming from her.

If Caroline had genuinely forgotten, Christina would not blame her for anything. However, it was obvious that she had not.

She placed her fork down. “Go out, knock, and come in again.”

Caroline’s eyes widened in anger as a feeling of displeasure arose within her. Yet, there was a warning. look in Christina’s eyes, cautioning Caroline from angering her further.

She gritted her teeth. Since her position was lower than Christina’s, she had no choice but to submit.

Furiously, Caroline spun around and exited the room. After knocking on the door and receiving Christina’s response, she entered again.

“What’s the matter?”

“This is my draft for the department’s internal competition. Please submit it to the superiors.” Caroline passed a form and a few design drafts to Christina.

Radiant Corporation would host an internal competition annually. The winner would be promoted, and Caroline believed that this was her chance.

Once she came in first place, the first thing she would do was chase Christina out.

What’s so impressive about this woman? Didn’t she get her position by selling off her good looks? Wait and see how I’ll drag you down.

Christina took the drafts. “Okay. You can leave now if there’s nothing else.”

Despite the unpleasant look on her face, Caroline did not say anything and left.

After work, Nathaniel arranged for a car to send Christina to the Hadley residence.

Helen welcomed her. “Are you Ms. Ada?”

Christina wore a black outfit that she had prepared beforehand and put on a black cape that covered her entire body, which made her look like a night traveler.

With a mask on her face and a voice-changing device hiding in her clothes, her look was complete.

“Yes.”

“This way please, Ms. Ada.”

Not doubting her, Helen brought her in.

It was Christina’s second time at the Hadley residence after getting married to Nathaniel. The house was just as it was in her memories. The atmosphere was solemn. A vase of flowers and some coffee were placed on the grey marble coffee table.

Julia was sipping on a cup of coffee while sitting on the couch.

When she saw Ada, she scrutinized her for a few moments before averting her gaze.

What’s there for her to hide? We’ve already guaranteed that we won’t take pictures of her or expose her identity. Why is she so reluctant to reveal her face?

“Take a seat. Would you like some coffee?” asked Julia tentatively.

“I’m fine. Thank you.” Christina could not eat or drink in front of them since she would have to take off her mask.

Julia did not make things difficult for her. “I’ve arranged a room for you to rest in. You can start work.

tomorrow.”

Although she had hired Julia as a designer, she did not intend to overwork her.

“It’s fine, Mrs. Hadley. It’s still early, so I’d like to measure your waist and make a record of it first.”

Christina wanted to finish her task earlier and leave the Hadley residence as soon as possible.

Although she had already done all the preparations, unexpected events might still occur.
