A Crazy Night Novel

When Nathaniel saw the edge of her dress pulled up to her calf, he took off his suit jacket to cover her legs.

Christina looked at him in confusion.

Nathaniel gently said, “You’re pregnant, so don’t catch a cold. Even though the living room is constantly kept warm, it won’t do us any harm to stay on the safe side. Be good, okay? I’ll slowly tell you about it.”

Christina buried herself in his arms and urged, “Hurry up, Nathaniel!”

Holding her hands, he slowly rubbed them and said, “He kidnapped Sebastian.”

“What?” Christina gasped. “When was this? Why didn’t I hear anything about this?”

As Nathaniel stared at Christina’s resentful gaze, he patiently explained what happened.

By the end of it, Christina was gritting her teeth in fury. “None of the Taggart family are good people!”

Realizing who she had just included, she quickly added, “Except Sebastian. They can’t compare to him.”

Nathaniel was protective and biased toward his people, and Christina’s protectiveness was even more intense than his.

Dotingly, Nathaniel pinched her earlobes and said, “The crimes of these two cases are more than enough to make Manuel and the Taggart family pay a painful price for what they’ve done.”

There were some things Christina could not wrap her mind around, however. “I remember Hadley Corporation getting the chance to invest in Koandria’s medical project, so how did you find out that there was something wrong with the project?”

“It’s not hard to look into this, honestly. The person in charge of the medical project has a criminal record. Even though he had spent money to change his personal details, the more perfect it seems, the more suspicious it’ll be. It’s the same concept for the contract of the project. High risk means high return, but according to the recent market analysis, the market isn’t doing so well. It’s rare for investment returns in medical projects to be more than sixty percent. The few successful exceptions won’t be enough to stop me from being suspicious about it. While it’s true that Hadley Corporation has gotten the chance to invest in the project, they had not invested much into it. The loss of their funds is only a cover. Hadley Corporation is just a victim to the police, not the main investors. In contrast, Manuel had changed the Taggart family’s assets into cash and signed an investment with Koandria’s conglomerates to become an official investor. To establish his reputation and show off his capabilities, Manuel convinced a few of his friends to join him, and they had signed on with those conglomerates.”
