Let Me Stay The Night

When Christina’s lips bumped into Nathaniel’s cheek, his faint woody scent filled her nostrils and left her in a daze. A few seconds later, she jolted back.

We should stop fooling around. It would be embarrassing if the children saw us.

Ever since the children barged into the room the last time, Christina would always keep a safe distance from him whenever they were out.

Meanwhile, Lucas and Camila were already awake by the time the car arrived at Scenic Garden Manor.

A short nap was all the kids needed to reinvigorate themselves.

After alighting from the car, both of them played ball in the courtyard. Christina was watching them she received Rayne’s call.

She subsequently headed to the study and borrowed Nathaniel’s computer for work.

It turned out that there was a problem with one of the design drawings. The design looked good on yet the intended result wasn’t achieved when it was given physical form, creating a need for a change color.

Based on the sample Rayne had sent. Christina adjusted the color a few times until she was satisfied.

By the time she was finished, night had already fallen.

When she suddenly received a call from Azure, she remembered that she hadn’t spoken to her grandmother over the last two days due to work.

Thus, she answered without hesitation. “Grandma.“

“Christina, I was worried when I didn’t hear from you for the past two days. I thought that something untoward had happened,” Azure remarked anxiously.

Christina’s heart was warmed by the concern shown by her grandmother. She felt the urge to pour her heart out and tell Azure about everything Anya did to her.

However, before she could start, she heard Anya’s voice in the background. “Grandma, did Christina say when she’ll be back?”

Anya is with Grandma?

Christina didn’t want to alert Anya of her plan yet. Besides, her words wouldn’t carry much impact since she wasn’t by Azure’s side.

Holding that thought, she suppressed her anger and decided to hold Anya accountable only upon her return
