Let Me Stay The Night

Christina played with the children in the front yard. Then, she drew pictures with them

Acnoon drew close Lucas and Camila grew tired of playing. Hence, Christina instructed the nanny to take them back to their room for an afternoon nap.

Later, Nathaniel worked in the study, Sebastian arranged some documents, and Christina lounged on the couch, drawing on her tablet

A knock on the door interrupted the quiet atmosphere of the room. The door swung open, and Madison walked in

The women’s eyes met, and Christina recalled what Francis said the day before yesterday.

It was Madison who had leaked the secret back then.

However, without any evidence, it was just her word against Madison’s. She would achieve nothing and just put Madison on her guard if she were to confront her.

Then, a thought suddenly crossed Christina’s mind. She looked at Sebastian and asked, “Hey, Sebastian, you told me before that you still have the computer that was hacked four years ago, right?”

Yes, that’s right. Mr. Lucas said he would help me restore the data and identify the thief,” replied Sebastian in a serious tone.

He had kept the computer in good condition with that hope in his heart.

Madison tensed up. Why did Christina bring up this matter all of a sudden? No, I must not let her bring up this matter!

“It’s been so long. Back then, the best hackers were hired to crack it, and all had failed,” countered Madison in a deliberately calm voice.

“No harm trying again.” Christina’s steely gaze pierced right through Madison. “What are you scared of?”

“I… No, what I meant was, the virus was very powerful. I’m just afraid that an information leak might happen again.” Madison looked away to hide her guilt.

The corners of Christina’s lip lifted in a small smirk. She gave Madison a loaded look but said nothing.

Ever since Sebastian had asked Lucas for help without prior authorization, Nathaniel had been worried about Lucas’ safety, so he had forbidden anyone from mentioning Lucas’ skills.

Sebastian glanced at Nathaniel, seeking his input.

“Bring the computer over tomorrow,” said Nathaniel casually.

“Yes, Mr. Hadley.”
