Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 90 A Visit From Julia

In just few seconds, Madison had come up with countless excuses for herself. Not wanting to arouse Nathaniel’s suspicion, she then turned around and said in the most casual tone possible, “I-It’s not what you think, Mr. Hadley…”

Nathaniel exuded an intimidating aura as he said, “I’ve already checked the receipt. It’s a pair of limited-edition pearl earrings.”

That meant Madison had deliberately handed Christina the perfume.

Madison tried her best to remain calm, but her palms were already drenched in sweat. “You’re right. I grabbed the wrong present by mistake and left the earrings in the car. I had wanted to explain it at the time, but I never got the chance to do so. After that, you left with Mrs. Hadley, so… I’m terribly sorry. That only happened because of my careless mistake.”

Nathaniel narrowed his eyes and simply stared at her in silence.

The air in his office felt as though it had completely frozen over at that point.

After what seemed like forever, Nathaniel said, “You can tender your resignation with the HR department if you make a mistake like that again.”,

“Understood, Mr. Hadley.”

Of course, Madison knew full well what he meant by that.

Her tears began to fall the moment she stepped out of Nathaniel’s office.

I can’t believe Mr. Hadley would say something so heartless to me because of Christina! This is a clear warning. I’ll have to be more careful next time!

Christina got so carried away with her design drawing that she neglected her meals and rest. That was especially the case since her creativity had been activated, and each draft looked better than the one before.

She would take naps at the desk whenever she got tired and continue drawing after waking up.

Just like that, she spent the entire afternoon drawing and only stopped in the evening.
