Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 279 Ruthless Linda

Exerting minimal force using his fingers, Nathaniel effortlessly pulled Christina into his embrace.

“It’s getting late, so you can head back now. We’ll discuss the rest tomorrow morning”

Madison felt somewhat upset as she stared at the contract that they had yet to finish discussing.

Back then, Mr. Hadley would insist on finishing his work before taking a break. Now, he’s going to leave his work aside just to be with Christina. I’ve lost count of how many exceptions he has made just for her….

As displeased as Madison was, she had no choice but to suck it up. “Understood,” she said as she retrieved the documents from the desk and left.

Christina was feeling a little sleepy at the time. Seeing as there was nobody else in the study, she muzzled against Nathaniel’s muscular chest and enjoyed the warmth that enveloped her.

“Carry me back to the room.”

Having gotten used to being spoiled, Christina would have Nathaniel carry her around at every opportunity she got.

Of course, Nathaniel didn’t mind it one bit. He gave her a light pinch on the nose and carried her back to the bedroom.

Linda’s birthday was just around the corner.

She had been calling Charlie many times, but she couldn’t seem to get through to him no matter what. It was as though he had blocked her number, and that did not sit well with her at all.

Unable to accept being dumped like that. Linda was determined to turn things around.

Christina delivered the dress she had made to the doorstep.

Thinking that Christina would be able to help with her situation, Linda instructed the housekeeper to have Christina stay for a bit.

Christina assumed Linda wanted to try on the dress, so she decided to stick around as she wasn’t in a hurry to leave.
