A Crazy Night Novel

Timothy glanced at Azure with a dark expression. “If you don’t want to stay here, you can leave anytime.”

According to the original plan, Timothy had only invited Christina and Nathaniel to have dinner together in order to mend their relationship.

He chose the Gibson residence because he wanted Christina and Nathaniel to go to the ancestral hall together after the meal. This would send a signal to the outside world that the Gibson family and the Hadley family were about to reconcile.

Timothy didn’t disclose to anyone that Nathaniel was coming as a guest. Azure thought it was only Christina, so she had something else in mind. She wanted to seize the opportunity during the dinner to persuade Christina not to destroy Nigel’s family.

Even though Timothy and his family were at odds, and Azure had done unspeakable things, she was still his biological mother. Timothy didn’t object to Azure’s proactive gestures, but it didn’t mean he would tolerate her unreasonable behavior.

Azure glared at Timothy resentfully but eventually held back her retort. She sat quietly at the head of the table and took a big gulp of red wine as if she was venting her frustration.

“Father, I brought Nathaniel back with me to have dinner. These are the supplements we bought for you.” Christina remained unaffected by Azure.

“Mr. Gibson, Mrs. Lazuli, apologies for disturbing you tonight.” Nathaniel handed the gift he was carrying to the butler behind him and greeted Timothy without changing his expression.

At the present moment, the relationship between the Gibson family and the Hadley family was rather ambiguous. However, the truth had not yet been clarified, and before Nathaniel obtained Timothy’s approval, he wouldn’t neglect Timothy’s previous warning to him and the grudge against him.

Addressing Timothy as “Mr. Gibson” was also Nathaniel’s way of testing the waters.

As for his attitude toward Azure, it depended entirely on Christina.

Christina held some resentment toward Azure. After all, this woman knew the truth but chose to conceal it

for her own selfish reasons.

Nevertheless, Christina hadn’t completely severed ties with Azure yet. She was willing to sit at the same table with Azure out of respect for Timothy..
