Let Me Stay The Night

By the time Nathaniel returned to Scenic Garden Manor, it was already nine at night.

The first thing he did was visit his sleeping children before heading to his bedroom to change his clothes.

He didn’t spot Christina in the bedroom, so he assumed she was in the study.

As expected, Christina was embroidering flowers onto Madison’s gown in the study.

The longer Nathaniel stared at her, the more he found her to be alluring, so much so his heart skipped a beat. She’s likea delicate flower waiting to be picked.

However, Christina tended to be absorbed in her work, so she didn’t notice Nathaniel approaching her.

It wasn’t until he coughed that she returned to her senses.

When Christina raised her head and saw Nathaniel’s handsome face, she beamed. “You’re back?”

“Mhm.” He nodded and eyed the gown in front of Christina. “It’s late. You should leave it be. It’s not good for your eyes if you keep working on it. As much as I support her work, I don’t want to see her ruining her eyes.

“I’ll stop after completing this section. Oh yeah, have you eaten yet?”

Nathaniel was very disciplined in many aspects, but he always had trouble maintaining a healthy meal

routine.

While his stomach had recovered greatly, and he didn’t suffer any pain, that didn’t mean he should be careless with it.

Upon meeting Christina’s sparkly eyes, he pursed his lips guiltily. “No… I forgot.”

She frowned immediately, ready to lecture an adult less sensible than a child. However, she swallowed her criticism when she noticed his brand-new stubble. Fine. I guess he has been incredibly busy lately, considering he doesn’t even have time to maintain his image.

In a voice filled with heartache, she inquired, “What do you want to eat, then? I’ll prepare it for you.”

Nathaniel wasn’t in a hurry to answer as he stretched his slender arm toward Christina and wrapped it around her waist, pulling her into his embrace,
