Let Me Stay The Night

The atmosphere was initially tense, but Christina broke into laughter after hearing Lucas’ words.

“Lucas is right. Don’t mention that ever again.”

As Christina didn’t want to talk, Camila fell silent.

After finishing the meal, the kids brushed their teeth and washed their faces before going to bed.

The next morning, Christina rose early and dressed in a stunning pink tweed ensemble. Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, and she looked gorgeous as ever.

“Wow, Mommy! You look so pretty!”

The kids had already put on their uniforms. They poked their heads into her room and gazed at her in awe.

“Thank you, my darlings,” Christina replied with a smile, feeling uplifted by the early morning praise.

Lucas glanced at the clock and urged, “Mommy, hurry up. It’s getting late!”

Christina put on some pale mauve lipstick and grabbed her bag. “Let’s go!”

She dropped the kids off at the kindergarten before heading to work.

At the office, as Christina approached the elevator, its doors opened to reveal Nathaniel standing inside.

His expression was impassive, resembling a statue. There were dark circles framing his eyes, a clear sign that he hadn’t been getting much sleep.

As they didn’t move an inch, Sebastian felt like he was about to suffocate in the elevator.

Right then, Christina’s phone began to ring. “You can head upstairs first,” she told them calmly.

She then turned on her heels to answer the call.

After the elevator doors slid shut, she got into another elevator to head upstairs.

When she walked into the office, Rayne lunged at her happily. “Good news, Christina! Good news!”

Christina was taken aback by how eager she was. “Can you talk after calming down?”

She couldn’t help but wonder why Sebastian could remain composed at all times while her own assistant was often jumpy.
