When Nathaniel saw the edge of her dress pulled up to her calf, he took off his suit jacket to cover her
legs.
Christina looked at him in confusion.
Nathaniel gently said, “You’re pregnant, so don’t catch a cold. Even though the living room is constantly
kept warm, it won’t do us any harm to stay on the safe side. Be good, okay? I’ll slowly tell you about it.”
Christina buried herself in his arms and urged, “Hurry up, Nathaniel!”
Holding her hands, he slowly rubbed them and said, “He kidnapped Sebastian.”
“What?” Christina gasped. “When was this? Why didn’t I hear anything about this?”
As Nathaniel stared at Christina’s resentful gaze, he patiently explained what happened.
By the end of it, Christina was gritting her teeth in fury. “None of the Taggart family are good people!”
Realizing who she had just included, she quickly added, “Except Sebastian. They can’t compare to
him.”
Nathaniel was protective and biased toward his people, and Christina’s protectiveness was even more
intense than his.
Dotingly, Nathaniel pinched her earlobes and said, “The crimes of these two cases are more than
enough to make Manuel and the Taggart family pay a painful price for what they’ve done.”
There were some things Christina could not wrap her mind around, however. “I remember Hadley
Corporation getting the chance to invest in Koandria’s medical project, so how did you find out that
there was something wrong with the project?”
“It’s not hard to look into this, honestly. The person in charge of the medical project has a criminal
record. Even though he had spent money to change his personal details, the more perfect it seems, the
more suspicious it’ll be. It’s the same concept for the contract of the project. High risk means high
return, but according to the recent market analysis, the market isn’t doing so well. It’s rare for
investment returns in medical projects to be more than sixty percent. The few successful exceptions
won’t be enough to stop me from being suspicious about it. While it’s true that Hadley Corporation has
gotten the chance to invest in the project, they had not invested much into it. The loss of their funds is
only a cover. Hadley Corporation is just a victim to the police, not the main investors. In contrast,
Manuel had changed the Taggart family’s assets into cash and signed an investment with Koandria’s
conglomerates to become an official investor. To establish his reputation and show off his capabilities,
Manuel convinced a few of his friends to join him, and they had signed on with those conglomerates.”
Hearing that, Christina finally understood what happened. As she hooked her arms around Nathaniel’s
neck, she chuckled. “You set up Manuel to avenge Sebastian, didn’t you?”
Nathaniel did not deny it. “Sebastian is one of my men, and his incident is partially my fault. He’s good
at his work. Moreover, it’s not easy to replace him with someone else and train them until they can work
well with me. Therefore, I might as well resolve the issue and have him return to work for me.”
Christina then said, “I’ve asked the kitchen staff to make some chicken soup. I’ll bring some for
Sebastian when I visit him later,” Christina said earnestly.
“As you wish. I have work, so I won’t be able to keep you company for now. Tell me when you’re about
to leave for the hospital so I can come along with you.” With Sebastian absent, Nathaniel had more
work to do, for he could not be at ease if he were to leave the essential work to the others.
“Sure. I’ll go and take a look at the kitchen to see if they’re done with the soup.” With that said.
Christina climbed out of his arms and headed to the kitchen.
Nathaniel returned to the study to continue working.
In the afternoon, Christina and Nathaniel went to the hospital together.
When they opened the door to Sebastian’s ward, Christina greeted Victoria.
“Christina, are you here to visit Oldster too?” Victoria seemed to be ill at ease when she saw Christina
and Nathaniel. In fact, she even seemed like she was trying to cover up something. “I was visiting a
friend in the hospital when I heard that Oldster’s injured and in the hospital too, so I came over to take
a look at him.”
Not only was there a fancy fruit basket on the bedside table, but there was also a bouquet of flowers
too. It was clear from those two items’ packaging that the person who brought them had made a careful
selection of what to bring.
Christina knew what was going on, but she made no comments about it. As she shoved the thermal
food jar into Victoria’s arms, she said with a half-smile, “I’ve brought chicken soup for Mr. Taggart. Mr.
Taggart isn’t too mobile at the moment, so please pour out the soup for him. Lucas needs someone to
keep him company, so Nathaniel and I won’t disturb your alone time any longer.”
The thermal food jar in Victoria’s hands abruptly felt like a hot potato she wanted to throw away. She
was at a loss, and she said, “Christina, you’ve misunderstood the situation. I actually…”
Christina gave Sebastian a long look before nudging Victoria. “We’re all adults, and we can love
whoever we want to. Don’t be shy and just court him if you like him. Otherwise, you’ll regret it in the
future. Do your best. I have faith in you.”
Nathaniel quietly glanced at Sebastian and Victoria.
After that, Christina towed Nathaniel away, never forgetting to close the door behind her.
Sebastian was not expecting Christina to be so straightforward. Clearing his throat to hide his
embarrassment, he said, “Mrs. Hadley likes to joke, so don’t take her words to heart. I don’t bear those
thoughts toward you.”
Victoria was shy at the start, but when she heard Sebastian’s words, she turned furious. “Sebastian, do
you think I’m not worthy of you?”
Sebastian hastily explained, “That’s not what I meant!”
Victoria aggressively questioned, “So you mean that you like me?”
Sebastian had experienced many kinds of scenes and many types of difficult women, but he still could
not hold his ground against Victoria’s questioning.
“I don’t hate you, but I don’t like in that you way either.”
“If you don’t hate me, that means you like me.” Victoria pouted. In a manner akin to a prideful demon,
she uttered, “Oldster, you’re not at all an honest man!”
Sebastian let out a surprised “huh” and forgot what he wanted to say next.
Victoria’s mood changed quicker than she could blink. Chuckling, she poured out the chicken soup to
cool it as she muttered, “But what can I do? I like smooth talkers. At the very least, they know what
romance is.”
Sebastian lowered his gaze and mumbled, “I don’t understand romance.”
Victoria shot him a glare. “I don’t need your opinion; I just need mine.”
As she shoved the bowl into his hands, she huffed and said, “Drink it while it’s hot. I had no one to shop
with me while you were gone.”
A wry smile grew on Sebastian’s lips, but somehow, he felt happy. While he was mulling over the
emotion, he did not move to drink the soup.
“Why aren’t you drinking it? Oh, I’ve forgotten about how you aren’t that mobile at the moment.” Before
Sebastian could react to that, Victoria took the bowl from him and brought the spoon to his lips. “Aren’t
you lucky? This is my first time serving someone, so don’t you make any comments about it, or else
you’re on your own.”
A joyous look flashed past Sebastian’s eyes. “Thank you, Ms. Lesley.”
Victoria huffed and began feeding Sebastian patiently.
Even though the chicken soup was salty, Sebastian felt a tinge of sweetness seeping into his heart.
While Victoria was busy feeding him, she was also busy talking to him.
“How can we just let Manuel go? Why don’t you say some nice things to me? If I’m happy, I’ll get
someone to teach that man a lesson for you.”
