A Crazy Night Novel

Chapter 442 You Disappoint Me

Christina’s breath caught in her throat, freezing her entire body She stared at Azure in utter disbelief. “Mrs. Lazuli, tell me, is this true?

Azure frowned. “It’s all true, Christina. I was planning to explain it to you at the right time

Christina finally preced together the entire story from the fragments of information that she had accumulated and asked in a trembling voice. “Were my parents amongst the people who died in the collapse of the building under Hadley Corporation’s ownership?”

Anya was satisfied to see the color drain from Christina’s cheeks as an expression of guilt crossed her face. “Yes, it was all because of the Hadley family. They are the mortal enemies of the Gibson family. If you want to inherit the shares from the Gibson family, you must get a divorce first!”

Azure patted Anya’s hand and said in a rather worried tone. “Stop talking now. Allow Christina some time to digest the information. It’s a lot to take in, after all.”

Christina was in shock. It was an accident! After a long silence, she turned on her heels and ran out of the study.

Anya couldn’t hide her satisfaction as a smug smile played on her lips. She relished seeing Christina caught in a heartbroken dilemma, knowing that whichever choice she made, would only lead to her unhappiness.

Christina did not know how, but she found herself back in Scenic Garden Manor.

She obsessed over the matter the entire way back. Finally, she decided that she would ask Nathaniel for clarification and stormed into the study, flinging the tightly-shut door open.

Sebastian who had been reporting on work matters, was shocked. Who is that? Who dares to throw the door open with so much force?

The two men looked up to see Christina stalking over to them with a gloomy expression on her face.

Sebastian was startled. “Mrs. Hadley, we are-

“Leave us,” ordered Christina in a voice devoid of any emotion.

Sebastian did not dare to protest. He quickly put down the documents in his hands and left the room, the door swinging shut behind him.

Christina marched toward Nathaniel, her eyes ablaze. “Nathaniel, did you already know my true identity?”

The man looked straight into her eyes and declared firmly, “It doesn’t matter what your identity is. You are still my wife.”

His assertive voice made it impossible to argue with him.

Christina’s brows pulled together. Her voice became serious and she almost shouted, “That’s not what I’m talking about. You knew who I was! You knew that the collapse killed my mother! Why didn’t you tell me?”

There was nothing she hated more than being told lies and half-truths.
