Christina turned to gaze at Lyle. “What did he leave me?”
“I’m sorry, but according to Mr. Hadley’s orders, I cannot give you the item unless it’s absolutely
necessary.”
Nevertheless, Christina’s focus was not on the item that Nathaniel had left for her. Now that she had
uncovered the reason behind his trip abroad, her next course of action was to wait for him to contact
her.
At this moment, I must prioritize my own safety to protect others. Moreover, I have confidence in
Nathaniel, and I’m sure he made a wise decision.
Despite Christina’s efforts to convince herself not to worry about Nathaniel, there was no denying that
she was unable to fully control her own actions.
That night, she couldn’t avoid the restless grip of insomnia.
The following morning. Christina appeared in the dining room, visibly worn out. She half-heartedly had
a couple of bites of breakfast, declining Raymond’s suggestion to have a doctor come and check on
her.
She then went to the company and attended a scheduled meeting that lasted until noon before finally
coming to an end. Christina, completely worn out, sank into her office chair, longing for a brief respite.
Lyle had gone out to fetch a nutritious meal for her. Thus, she instantly perked up at the sound of
footsteps. Warily opening her eyes, Christina recognized the person standing in front of her and said
with a hint of annoyance in her tone, “You’re not supposed to be here, Anya.”
The thick-skinned Anya casually plopped herself down on the couch in the lounge area and helped
herself to the fruits and snacks on the coffee table.
Christina glared at Anya but did not call for her secretary to have the uninvited guest removed from her
office.
After finishing a plate of snacks and a plate of grapes, Anya turned to regard Christina with a smile on
her face. “Your life is becoming quite comfortable. You even had the gall to reject Old Mr. Stone’s offer
of several billion as compensation. When did you become so confident, Christina?”
The negotiation between Barnaby and me took place at my mansion, with no more than five people
present. Excluding myself and Barnaby, the other people present at the negotiation are our trusted
confidantes. How did Anya come to know the details of our conversation
Christina rose to her feet and walked over, taking a seat opposite Anya. “Are you here to plead for
leniency on Nigel’s behalf?”
The insincere smile on Anya’s countenance faded, only to be replaced by a sneer. “Plead with you?
Why would I bother pleading with you? Nigel abandoned me and my mother. Whatever happens to him
has nothing to do with me.”
Even so, Christina was not naïve enough to believe that Anya had come to see her just for a casual
chat. “Get to the point. I’m busy,” she said, cutting to the chase.
“Grandma was in a car accident. She was in the emergency room all night, and her condition only
stabilized this morning,” said Anya. “I won’t beat around the bush. She’s your grandmother too, and the
upcoming medical expenses require a substantial amount of money. I’m sure you’re well aware of our
family’s financial situation and that we can’t afford those expenses. Right now, you’re the only one
capable of covering her medical bills, so shouldn’t you step up and provide the funds?”
Timothy was still hospitalized. Logically, it should be Christina’s duty to fulfill the filial responsibilities on
behalf of her father. Even though she was displeased with Azure, she couldn’t shirk the obligations that
were expected of her in this situation.
Of course, Christina would provide the necessary funds for Azure’s medical fees, but she absolutely
would not entrust the money to Anya. “I understand. I’ll send someone to the hospital to take care of
the matters concerning Mrs. Lazuli. I’ll also ensure that all the medical expenses are covered. Thank
you for making the trip here to inform me.”
Having been seen through, Anya didn’t bother hiding anymore. She boldly demanded what she wanted
from Christina, “Grandma despises you the most. Even though you’re fulfilling your father’s duty on his
behalf, I’m sure she wouldn’t be pleased if she were to find out that you were the one who paid for her
medical expenses. If your actions end up angering her and bringing her harm, none of us will be able to
shoulder that responsibility
Christina took a sip of water, her calm gaze seemingly carrying a penetrating power that struck directly
at Anya’s heart.
“So, you want me to entrust the medical fees to you?”
“It’s for the best,” Anya stated brazenly. “You’re a busy woman, and I’m sure you don’t have the time
nor the energy to take care of Grandma. Hiring a caretaker isn’t something my mom and I are
comfortable with. We’ve already discussed it among ourselves and decided that the two of us will take
turns looking after Grandma. If you’re not willing to contribute your efforts, then you should at least
contribute the money.
Christina didn’t interrupt Anya’s self-righteous speech, prompting the latter to add, “Also, considering
the current market rates, hiring a caretaker is expensive. My mom and I can’t work for free. You’ll have
to pay us for our services as well. How about starting with a million?”
Staring at Anya as if the woman was a fool, Christina said with a hint of mockery in her voice, “Anya.
you’ve lived a life of luxury since childhood, and your mother spends her days attending gatherings.
shopping, and traveling, yet you’re expecting me to pay you a million as compensation for your
services? Do you really think I can entrust you and your mother with taking care of Grandma?”
Anya had been driven to the brink of madness by her mounting debts. Desperate to make money, she
saw Christina as her prime target, and Azure’s medical expenses were merely a convenient excuse for
her to approach Christina for money.
At that moment, as she realized things weren’t going in her favor, Anya swiftly shifted her stance.
“Christina, don’t think I’m unaware that you’re involved in Grandma’s accident. Even the police have
come looking for you. I’m sure you had a hand in this!”
“How do you know the police came looking for me? Did you bug me, or did you plant an informant in
my house?” Christina asked solemnly.
Anya looked away. “I went to see you last night and happened to see the police officers entering your
mansion with my own eyes. I didn’t come to see you after because I couldn’t leave the hospital.”
No matter how perfect Anya’s explanation was, Christina didn’t believe a single word that came out of
her mouth.
“You suspect me of wanting to harm Grandma, but I have reasons to suspect you too,” Christina stated
matter-of-factly. “In fact, the reason is simple. Grandma found out about your secret, so you wanted to
silence her while simultaneously pinning the blame on me. Isn’t that right?”
“Nonsense!” Anya almost leaped out of her seat. Glaring at Christina, she continued, “I have always
been transparent and truthful in my actions. Grandma is so good to me, so why would I ever want to
harm her? Christina, you must’ve sent someone to do this. You’re unhappy that Grandma favors my
father, so you want to seize her entire fortune.”
Christina had never been interested in Azure’s assets; her only desire was to seek justice for Timothy.
“Don’t think you can clean your hands of everything. Anya. The case involving Madison and Miranda
isn’t fully resolved yet.”
“Madison? Who is that?” Anya feigned ignorance, her voice laced with sarcasm. “Oh, I remember now.
Isn’t that woman your love rival? What possible gain would I have in killing her? She was after your
man, not mine. And as for Miranda, she is even more irrelevant to me. She’s your stepmother, and we
all know how much you despise Emilia. After all the abuse you endured from them, your reasons for
wanting them dead seem all the more justified.”
Following the passage of time, despite occasional moments of fear when she feared her deeds might
be exposed, Anya grew increasingly confident.
After all, given the lack of concrete evidence, the police would be unable to establish her as the
perpetrator.
“I have no patience or tolerance for your harassment, Anya. If you continue to bother me, I won’t
hesitate to have you reunited with Nigel behind bars.”
