Hek. So the or what it takes for her to think of met

Nathaniel arched an eyebrow in response as he lifted his bowl and drank it all in one go.

Julia flashed him a satisfied smile and patted Christina on the back of her hand. “Don’t be silly. Christina! This is good for you!”

As such, Christina had no choice but to pinch her nose and down her serving of traditional medicine in one go. Despite its awful smell, it actually tasted somewhat sweet.

“Why don’t you two stay the night here instead?” Julia suggested.

“Yay’ We want to stay the night here and listen to Grandma’s stories!” Lucas and Camila exclaimed excitedly before Christina could even respond.

Seeing as the kids were incredibly enthusiastic about staying over, Christina agreed to it as well.

The two kids then had Julia read them stories after dinner. Since she didn’t get to spend time with them very often, she was more than happy to oblige.

Christina spent the rest of the evening editing a design drawing on her tablet. She was so engrossed in her work that it was already night before she knew it.

Suddenly, Yerck sent her a text message that read: Have you taken a look at the file I sent you?

The look in Christina’s eyes grew cold when she saw his message. Had he not brought it up, she would have completely forgotten about the news she saw a while back.

She then replied coldly Just get to the point. I don’t have time for your riddles.

Yerek texted almost instantly: Why don’t you ask Nathaniel?

Christina fell into deep thought after reading that message of his. Suddenly, Nathaniel opened the door and entered the room. Christina quickly closed the chat window and put the tablet away.

“Why are you still up?” Nathaniel asked.

Christina propped her chin up with one hand and gave it some thought before asking. “One of Hadley Corporation’s buildings collapsed about twenty years ago. Do you know anything about that incident?”

As the lighting was di where Nathaniel stood, half of his body was obscured by the shadow. “Yes, I do. One of our contractors was cutting corners, and the poorly-constructed building collapsed as a result. Hadley Corporation paid for the compensation afterward, he replied calmly as though it wasn’t something worth mentioning at all

His statement matched the information that Christina had found on the internet. “Oh, I see. I read an article about it online, so I just thought I’d ask you about it. Good night.”
