Christina’s gaze narrowed as she acquiesced, unable to find a reason to refuse. “All right, Grandma,”
she replied.
“It’s getting late. Get some rest.” Azure gently patted the back of Christina’s hand.
With a nod, Christina made her way upstairs.
After a warm relaxing bath, she slipped into bed. The soft moonlight poured in through the window,
casting a tranquil glow in the room. Soon, her eyes grew heavy, and she drifted off to a deep, restful
sleep.
The next morning, the sun’s rays streamed through the windows, gently rousing Christina from her
slumber.
She stretched and felt invigorated.
For the day’s outfit, she had picked out a stylish ensemble, opting for a blouse that elegantly
emphasized her slender waist, paired with an over-the-knee skirt that showcased her fair calves.
Completing the look with a cardigan, she made her way downstairs.
After a satisfying breakfast, she embarked on her journey to work.
A domineering aura filled the air as Christina entered her office.
Nathaniel exuded an aura of cold austerity as he sat on one of the chairs, commanding attention with
his mere presence.
“You’re not the type to invite yourself without an invitation, Mr. Hadley,” Christina commented the
moment she laid eyes on him.
Nathaniel cast her a lazy look. His dark eyes seemed capable of piercing her soul. “You should seize
this opportunity to discuss the contract since I’m here,” he retorted.
Christina had no choice but to reschedule her morning meetings to accommodate the contract
discussions with Nathaniel.
Throughout the meeting, Sebastian and Lina diligently documented the corrections.
As lunchtime approached, Nathaniel glanced at the time and proposed, “Let’s take a break. We’ll
continue after lunch.”
Before Christina could respond, both assistants swiftly packed up and left the meeting room.
Unlock succeeded
Man’s compliance was expected. Christina found it puzzling to see Linia, who didn’t directly work for
Nathaniel, following suit.
It seemed as though they were worried about being called back to resume the meeting if they didn’t
leave promptly.
Christina tidied up the documents on the table. She then picked up another document and began
reading it, seemingly disregarding Nathaniel’s presence in the room.
“Aren’t you going out for lunch?” Nathaniel frowned and asked.
Christina remained engrossed in the document, not bothering to raise her gaze. “I still have a lot to do.
We can continue our discussion after you’ve had your lunch,” she calmly replied, her irises glowing with
a warm, amber hue.
Without warning, Nathaniel abruptly snatched her documents and callously discarded them, treating
them like mere trash. “Are you trying to starve yourself to death by skipping lunch?” he questioned.
What? Skipping one meal won’t starve me to death. What is he talking about?
Anger surged through her veins as she stood up, meeting Nathaniel’s gaze with cold determination.
“That is not your concern. Please leave,” she demanded, her face flushed and her eyes narrowing with
displeasure, reminiscent of a child who had their toy taken away.
Undeterred, Nathaniel reached out and firmly pinched her chin, his tone dripping with dominance. “It
has everything to do with me. We are still married. I don’t want my kids to lose their mother.”
Christina’s eyes darkened as she felt like Nathaniel’s concern was more like a curse than genuine care
for her well-being. “Please mind your own business. I’ll live longer if you leave me be,” she asserted,
attempting to push him away.
Ignoring her resistance, Nathaniel forcefully pinned her down on the table, causing documents and
pens to scatter and tumble to the floor.
Christina grunted as Nathaniel pinned her down, his condescending stare making her cheeks flush and
her breath hitch.
The awkward angle and position filled her with fear of being caught in such a compromising situation at
the office. She pleaded, “Let go of me. We’re in the office.”
The intensity of the moment made her feel as if her nerves were on the verge of giving out.
Nathaniel couldn’t bring himself to tease her any further as he watched Christina’s neck, face, and ears
turn a deep shade of red, resembling a blushing kitten.
Hence, he softened his tone and said, “Promise me you’ll go out for lunch, and I’ll let you go, okay?”
Christina, feeling trapped beneath him, realized the had little choice in the matter.
She forced a smile and replied, “Okay, I promise.”
With that, Nathaniel released his hold on her, satisfied with her response. He picked up her coat and
made a sweeping gesture, silently urging her to leave.
Realizing she couldn’t win a fight against him. Christina reluctantly walked out the door. knowing she
had no other option at the moment.
As she reached the door, she ran into Lina, who was on her way into the room. “Ms. Steele. do you…
Lina trailed off.
Her eyes widened in disbelief as she took in the mess behind Christina, wondering what had unfolded
between her and Nathaniel during the brief time they were left alone.
Christina sensed Lina’s thoughts through her widened eyes and promptly explained. “It’s not what you
think. I accidentally knocked the stuff onto the ground just now
“I understand. Ms. Steele. Don’t worry. I won’t tell a soul” Lina even made a gesture of zipping her lips.
Christina couldn’t help but feel amused by Lina’s response as if her explanation only fueled further
speculation.
Before she could clarify further. Nathaniel intervened firmly grasping her hand and leading her out of
the room. “You have a bright assistant there. Remember, what happens here stays here,” he stated,
reinforcing Lina’s assumptions.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Hadley,” she assured, almost patting her chest to emphasize her discretion.
A faint smile curved up on Nathaniel’s lips as he quickened his pace, leading Christina out of the room.
When they reached the car park, he settled Christina in the front passenger seat, fastened her seatbelt,
and drove off.
Christina had no idea where he was taking her, but she didn’t mind since she wasn’t familiar with the
city.
After a while, they arrived at a restaurant, only to find it empty.
Surprised, she turned to Nathaniel and whispered. “There’s no one here during lunchtime. I don’t think
it’s a good sign. Let’s find another place.
However, before they could leave, one of the servers quickly explained, “Miss, it’s not like that. We
don’t have any customers right now because this gentleman here has reserved the entire restaurant.”
Christina tensed up at that. “Is it really necessary to reserve the entire place? We’re just having lunch,”
she stated.
Nathaniel simply replied, “I don’t like the noise,” as if his decision made perfect sense.
The server led them to a table in the center of the restaurant and handed them the menu.
Christina ordered a few dishes from the menu, but Nathaniel insisted on adding a few extra signature
dishes, feeling that it wasn’t enough.
“It’s too much. We won’t be able to finish everything,” Christina reminded him in a small voice.
“No one said you had to finish everything,” Nathaniel replied, thinking that Christina could simply take a
few bites from each dish to fill her up.
Soon, the dishes were served.
