A Crazy Night Novel

Nathaniel’s eyebrow twitched. She wants me to go back while they go on a date?

“I’ll go with you. I happen to want to try that restaurant.”

Christina was taken aback, for Nathaniel and Sheridan had mismatched personalities, akin to oil and water. If they were to have a meal together, the tension in the air would certainly be palpable!

A while later, the couple arrived at the entrance together.

Despite his composed demeanor, Sheridan was rather taken aback to see Nathaniel standing there.

“I hope you don’t mind another person joining us.” Christina chuckled in an attempt to ease the awkwardness.

Sheridan responded by flashing them a courteous smile. “Of course not. Please, get in.”

With that, he opened the door to the passenger seat.

Nathaniel’s brows furrowed, and he swiftly clasped Christina’s hand, swiftly pivoting on his heels and striding in the opposite direction. “No need. We’ll take our own vehicle.”

A tinge of tension crept into Christina’s expression. She offered a polite smile to Sheridan and suggested, “Please lead the way, and we’ll follow you.”

Having said that, she turned and glared at the man beside her, whispering. “Can’t you talk nicely?”

Nathaniel’s actions only made things awkward for everyone involved. Fortunately, Sheridan was not a petty person. Otherwise, he might have already left before they even had a chance to eat.

“What do you mean I wasn’t talking nicely? Can’t you see the way he looks at you? It’s as if he wants to swallow you whole,” Nathaniel hissed.

“He lent me a helping hand. Can you please show him some respect?” Exasperated. Christina climbed into the car and firmly shut the door behind her.

Nathaniel’s expression grew grim as he observed her forcefully shutting the door, his eyebrows furrowing in displeasure.

He merely helped you out with the accounts. Who doesn’t know how to do that?

Aware of the woman’s obvious discontent, he had no choice but to tamp down his anger and get into the driver’s seat. He then started the engine and proceeded to follow Sheridan’s vehicle.

In due time, they arrived at the restaurant. Nathaniel maintained a quiet demeanor, looking slightly displeased, but at the very least, he did not offer any offending remarks.
