Let Me Stay The Night

Nathaniel’s emotions, which had just been in turmoil, resumed peacefulness.

Behind his shades, his eyes narrowed at the inexplicable sense of comfort spreading within his heart.

Yosef sighed lightly. “There’s no reason for me to slander Nathaniel. Christina, I—

“I don’t doubt you. It’s Laura’s words I don’t trust. Perhaps someone’s just trying to shift the blame,” Christina interjected lightly.

While her voice was soft, the message she hoped to convey was clear enough.

Yosef had not foreseen Christina mistrusting him and was about to come up with a retort when a tall figure stood and pulled Christina’s wrist to leave. “Rest.”

From the way he spit out that one word, it was as though speaking more would cost him.

Yosef’s expression was back to its placid state. “You should get some rest since it’s getting late. I’ll drop you off at the studio tomorrow morning.”

“I still remember the route to get there. I’ve only been gone for a few months.” Christina declined his offer inadvertently.

“All right, then. See you tomorrow.”

Christina was not surprised by how luxurious the presidential suite turned out to be since Nathaniel had been the one to arrange for it.

Before stepping into the room, Christina inquired, “Mr. Bodyguard, where will you be staying?”

“Right opposite you.” His voice was deep and husky.

Christina’s eyes widened. “A bodyguard staying in a presidential suite? You sure are living the high life.”

“I’m not your ordinary bodyguard.”

Christina laughed drily. You are almost as unique as your employer at this point.

“Get some rest. Feel free to call me if you need anything.” This was the longest sentence Nathaniel had uttered for the entire day.
