A Crazy Night Novel

As soon as Christina and Bailey stepped out to the courtyard, some rich young men walked up and greeted them

However, their attention was not on Bailey but on Christina.

Christina was supposed to be a foil, but now, she had become the protagonist.

She turned her head sideways and whispered into Bailey’s ear, “No wonder you worked so hard at picking a dress for me earlier. Is this your motive? To shift their attention onto me so you could get out of this sticky situation?”

Since her ruse was seen through, Bailey could only flash an awkward smile. “We’re besties, right? Just do me a favor, will you? I’m tired of getting set up all the time.”

Christina smiled resignedly. Not wanting to disappoint Beatrice either, she fervently tried to upsell her best friend. “Gabrielle learns business management.

Christina responded with a smile. Lifting her gaze, she was attracted by a towering figure in the banquet hall, and promptly, the smile on her face vanished.

Nathaniel was clad in a black suit with neatly combed short hair. His deep, frosty eyes looked like abysses, and his exquisite features made him stand out among the crowd. The elegant and regal aura he was emanating from head to toe was just one of a kind.

Another slender figure stood right beside him.

Noticing the change in Christina’s expression, Bailey followed her friend’s line of sight.

“Why is your husband with Madison?” she exclaimed in shock.

Rage instantly burned in Christina’s gaze. He went to Madison just because I didn’t agree to attend the banquet with him?

Right then, Madison also noticed Christina’s presence. Her provocation-filled eyes had a hint of smugness.
