Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 329 Slept Together

“Where are we?” Christina asked suspiciously.

“It’s raining so heavily. I don’t want to risk driving in this weather. We’ll stay in the condominium tonight!

Nathaniel got out of the driver’s seat and walked over to open the passenger-side door with an umbrella to shield Christina from the rain.

She recalled that Madison lived in a condominium. Did he bring me back to their home?

Christina was immediately filled with disgust at that thought. She did not want to be near Madison. “I won’t go in. If you refuse to drive. I’ll drive myself home.”

“Don’t be difficult. There was an announcement on the radio just now that a thunderstorm was coming. It’s very dangerous to be driving now. If you get in an accident, how am I going to explain it to the two kids?”

Nathaniel held out the umbrella to Christina. His own body was entirely drenched in the rain.

Christina got out of the car reluctantly, promising herself that as soon as the rain eased, she would leave immediately.

Upon entering the condominium, Christina realized that the unit was enormous, and the interior was clean, spotless even. Most interestingly, there was no trace of a woman living in that space.

“You live alone here?” Christina asked, doubt creeping into her voice.

“Well, you refuse to let me step foot in Scenic Garden Manor. What else can I do but live here alone.” Nathaniel slipped the umbrella into the stand by the door. The rain was relentless, and his clothes were completely soaked through. Droplets of water dripped from his body to the floor, creating a small puddle.

“Make yourself comfortable. I’m going to take a shower and get myself changed out of these wet clothes.”

Christina’s clothes had not escaped the rain either. Although Nathaniel had tried his best to shield her with the umbrella, only her hair had remained dry.

Nathaniel noticed that she looked no better than himself. He worried that she would catch a cold sitting in her damp clothes. “I don’t have any spare women’s clothing for you, unfortunately. You’ll have to make do with my baggy workout clothes.”

He disappeared into the bedroom and returned with a white tracksuit set. “Take a shower and change into these dry clothes. I don’t want you to fall sick.”

Christina stared at the tracksuit in distaste. She really did not want to spend the night in his condominium, let alone put on his clothes.

Seeing her reluctance, Nathaniel said in a rather threatening tone. “Do you need me to help you with
