A Crazy Night Novel

Azure’s pride ran deep, reaching a breaking point as she could no longer tolerate Christina’s scathing remarks. Anger laced her voice as she retorted, “Christina, is this the result of your upbringing? How can you disregard your own family and lick the boots of outsiders?”

Christina’s gaze turned icy as she responded, “I grew up with my adoptive mother since young. I might not have received formal etiquette training, but she has taught me to discern right from wrong and never sacrifice my conscience for personal ambition.”

Each word she uttered felt like a stinging slap on the Gibsons’ face.

Azure was aware of everything that had happened, but driven by her thirst for revenge, she feigned ignorance even when Anya and Nigel schemed against Christina, plotting to kill her.

Azure’s expression betrayed her disappointment. “Christina, deep down, you still harbor resentment for the Gibson family’s failure in finding you back. We’ve already explained that we did try to find you. and when you returned to the family, we also did our best to make amends.” !

With a self-deprecating chuckle, Christina responded, “Go ahead and blame me for not appreciating your kindness. I don’t need you guys to make it up to me. I don’t need it, and I don’t want it.”

After uttering those words, she pushed her chair back and stood up, casting a disdainful gaze down at Azure. “I’ll repeat this once again. Anya’s kidnapping has nothing to do with me, and Nigel’s confinement in the police station is the consequence of his own actions. When my dear father finally sorts himself out, then you can come to find me.”

When Christina was about to turn around and leave, Azure stopped her. “Christina, I’ll cut to the chase. You can sever ties with the Gibson family if you want, but you must convince Nathaniel not to press charges against your Uncle Nigel. You must also bring Anya safely back to us and help solve the Gibson Corporation’s financial issues.

Three conditions were proposed in exchange for Christina’s single demand. What made Azure think Christina would insist on returning to the Gibson Corporation?

Christina turned back, her gaze filled with mockery as she confronted Azure. “Do you still believe that the Gibson family reigns over me? Mrs. Lazuli, this isn’t the appropriate way to seek assistance from someone.”

and give away more of my assets to Nigel? That’s quite a brilliant idea, but you’ve overlooked one crucial point. Everything Nigel and his family are currently enjoying rightfully belongs to me. Why should I hand over what is rightfully mine to someone else? Even if you insist on a clear division of assets, remember that my mother has a rightful share in the Gibson Corporation. Here’s a proposal: return my mother’s assets, and I’ll let
