Let Me Stay The Night

As soon as Nathaniel got her phone, he immediately deleted the newly added contact numbers.

“Why are you deleting my contacts?” Christina saw what he was doing and tried to snatch her phone back anxiously

Nathaniel refused. He didn’t even bother looking carefully, as he was deleting any contact name that seemed masculine. “Why? Are you upset that I deleted your potential suitors? Are you having a great time chatting with these guys?”

She looks tense when she’s with me, but she’s smiling at everyone else.

Christina froze momentarily. Was Nathaniel also there? Did he see me chatting with them?

It was quite remarkable that he could hold it in until now with his temperament.

Christina regained her senses and frowned. She said anxiously. “Those are my clients’ numbers! Don’t delete them randomly!”

Nathaniel deleted a few more before passing her phone back to her.

Christina looked at her phone and noticed that more than half of the contacts were gone, including Francis.

Cold sweat began to form on her forehead. She quickly put the phone back into her handbag and zipped it as if she was guarding against a thief.

Nathaniel grabbed her hand again and pulled her out of the place. Then, he dragged her into his car.

Once the car door was closed, the driver drove off.

“Let go of me! I want to go home.” Christina’s voice held a tinge of frustration, and she knitted her eyebrows.

Nathaniel remained calm and composed as he looked out of the window. “If you don’t want your two children to start calling another woman Mommy, you’d better behave yourself.”

The mention of her two children immediately captured Christina’s attention. “Don’t forget what your promised me initially. You said you wouldn’t fight for the children’s custody.”

Nathaniel turned to glance at her. “I will do that as long as you cooperate with me with the divorce proceedings.”

Christina snorted inwardly, as she knew he didn’t intend to divorce her. It was nothing more than a strategic delay. “I don’t understand. It’s just a simple matter of putting your signature on a form. Why do you have to make it so complicated?”
