Chapter 135 Leaving So Soon

As indecision set in upon Charlie, the sight of the heavy rain outside did make him feel like staying.

“Can’t you just call the driver to pick you up?” Julia commented abruptly, plunging the warm atmosphere that had just begun to build into an icy abyss.

Her response caused cold sweat to break out across Christina’s forehead. Shouldn’t she be trying to get him to stay? Why is she trying to kick him ost?

“It’s dangerous to drive in such inclement weather,” Christina advised softly.

Seemingly adamant about being uncooperative, Julia disagreed, “He no longer has a room here. If he wants to stay, he’ll have to sleep in the living room.”

The hostile attitude she displayed dampened the spirits of everyone present.

“This is the Hadley residence. I can come and go as I please. The master bedroom is mine.”

Nathaniel took Christina’s hand and headed for the door. He knew that she wanted to mend his parents’ relationship but was also aware of what a thankless task it was.

Cognizant of her good intentions, he gave her head a gentle tousle. “Don’t worry about them.”
