Let Me Stay The Night

“Am I scary?” asked Christina with confusion as she watched Sebastian flee.

Nathaniel smiled affectionately. “Of course not. You’re too cute to look scary.”

Everyone loved hearing sweet nothings, including Christina.

Satisfied, she consumed two mouthfuls of food. Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind, and she turned her line of sight toward him. “Does Sebastian have a girlfriend?”

Nathaniel paused his movement and contemplated the answer. “I don’t think so.”

“Then he doesn’t have one,” asserted Christina. Since Nathaniel’s a workaholic, as his assistant, Sebastian is probably also a workaholic. Not to mention Sebastian has to be on standby twenty-four hours. How can someone like him have time to find a girlfriend when he has to serve his boss at a moment’s notice?

“Why did you ask that?” Nathaniel sent a small piece of beef into Christina’s mouth.

While chewing, she answered, “Sebastian’s almost thirty years old, yet he still hasn’t found a partner. I think his family’s probably panicking about it.”

Nathaniel didn’t believe it was a serious issue because he got together with Christina after crossing the thirty-year-old mark.

When she realized he didn’t register the severity of the issue, she immediately swallowed her half-chewed beef. “You’re such an inhumane boss. How can you not care even a little about your subordinate’s life? It’s as if you’re trying to keep riding a horse without feeding it any grass!”

Christina turned a casual topic into a serious one after only a few exchanges.

Feeling aggrieved, Nathaniel stared at her furrowed eyebrows. “How about I give him a few days of leave so he can find a potential partner?”

Upon hearing that, Christina relaxed her frown. However, when she thought about Sebastian having a blind date in the park’s blind date corner, she predicted it would become a nightmare.

Hence, she shook her head. “That’s not good enough.”

Seeing that she rejected his idea, Nathaniel didn’t know what else to suggest because he didn’t have much experience on the matter.
