Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 377 No One Takes Care Of Daddy 

As the car door opened, Nathaniel swiftly lifted Christina off her feet and carried her inside.

The closing of the door reverberated in her ears as she found herself pressed against the car window.

Without hesitation, Nathaniel forcefully kissed her, his fiery and intense breath engulfing her like a raging fire, consuming her completely.

Instinctively, she tried to evade his overpowering presence. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a familiar figure standing outside the window.

It was at that moment she understood why he did that.

Nathaniel intentionally used her to provoke Francis.

Outside the car, a chilling gust of wind slipped into Francis’ collar, yet his handsome face remained remarkably composed.

The figure pressed against the window and their entwined hands appeared to be signaling to him that something was happening in the car.

He felt as if someone had ripped his heart out and dropped it from a great height, shattering it into pieces.

As the car drove away, only the solitary figure of the man remained on the empty ground.

Inside the car, Christina pushed Nathaniel away, her icy face showing no reaction. “You’ve achieved your goal. Can you let go now?”

The wrist Nathaniel gripped onto throbbed with a faint pain.

Nathaniel slowly released his grip, appearing calm as if nothing had happened.

He admitted he did that to provoke Francis. Seeing the disappointment and frustration on Francis’ face gave him a sense of satisfaction.

Christina rubbed her wrist before mouthing the word “childish.”

“I can be more childish than this if you insist on keeping in touch with him,” Nathaniel said, unfazed by her disdain.

Upon returning to Scenic Garden Manor, Christina was the first to get out of the car and went upstairs.

Observing her visibly irritated expression, the butler deduced that another argument had ensued between the couple.
