A Crazy Night Novel

There was a ladder behind Christina, but there was nothing on either side of the ladder. It happened so suddenly that she couldn’t react in time.

Right as she reflexively held her tummy, someone wrapped an arm around her waist, and she felt a warm and familiar breath on her body.

Just like that, Christina fell into the man’s embrace and she heard the voice she had been missing.

“Are you all right?” Nathaniel asked, then shot Anya a piercingly cold look.

Christina nodded, looking pale. “I’m fine. I was just startled.”

Nathaniel’s gaze was filled with murderous infent as he glared at Anya.

Anya’s expression contorted as she argued. “I didn’t push her! She lost balance on her own. 1-I saw her falling down, so I came to help her.”

Nathaniel was determined to teach Anya a lesson.

“Christina, it’s Old Mdm. Garcia’s birthday. Why can’t you settle the matter privately? Must you cause a scene in public? You are too ignorant,” Azure said sternly.

“Anya tried to harm me. Why can’t I settle scores with her? If that were to happen to you, could you brush it off?” Christina sneered.
