Chapter 173 I Am An Investor

Christina didn’t suffer any serious injuries, and her mental state recovered as well.

Nonetheless, Nathaniel still requested that she rest at home for two days before returning to work.

In order to accompany her, he had arranged all his company affairs to be taken care of at home.

As a stream of yellow light illuminated the study, Christina could be seen sitting next to Nathaniel, taking up one–third of his desk.

Holding a tablet in her hand, she browsed through the news website, occasionally taking notes of useful information she came across.

Just then, a light knock sounded on the door, and Madison walked in, holding some files. “These documents contain the key points for the next meeting. I have organized them all.”

It was evident she was as competent as Sebastian in terms of efficiency. Coupled with the fact that she had more experience, she was able to produce more thorough work.

As Nathaniel skimmed through the files, he simply gave a slight hum in responsé.

Madison’s gaze finally fell on Christina, and she noticed that the young woman was propping her chin with both hands. Leaning slightly forward, the pendant on her neck had slipped out and was dangling in

the air.

With the help of the light, Madison could recognize that the pendant belonged to Nathaniel.

Even though she had only seen it a few times, she had heard that it was a pendant that Julia had obtained from a temple to protect Nathaniel’s safety.

Nathaniel has always cherished the pendant, so why is Christina wearing it? Those people really are a bunch of idiots. I can’t believe they can’t even handle a woman.

Tamping down the jealousy that was surging within her, Madison asked in concern, “Mrs. Hadley, I heard you were in danger. Did you get hurt?”

Christina turned around, and with a distant look in her eyes, she replied softly, “I’m fine. Thanks for your

concern.”

“I’m glad to hear that.” Madison squeezed out a smile.

Although she had put on her most dazzling smile, Christina thought that it looked insincere.
