Let Me Stay The Night

Sebastian’s heart sank to the pit of his stomach as he felt a chill go down his spine. He stiffened and followed Christina’s gaze to the door.

There stood Victoria, standing with her arms folded and her brows arched. Her gaze was calm, but Sebastian still felt his scalp tingling with unease.

Flashing a calm smile, Victoria declared, “Mr. Taggart, what did you just say? I didn’t hear you clearly. Please say it again.”

If I knew Victoria would arrive so soon, I wouldn’t have used her as an excuse. Now I have offended two women whom I can’t afford to offend. Oh, no… My life is going to be a living hell

Despite thinking that way, Sebastian tried his best to avoid answering her question. “Ms. Lesley, you’re here. I need to return a call, so come on in and chat with Mrs. Hadley.”

As Sebastian attempted to pass by Victoria, she firmly gripped his shoulders, causing him to feign nonchalance and meet her gaze with a calm expression.

Victoria shot Christina a smile. “Christina, please allow me to talk to Mr. Taggart for a few minutes.” Without waiting for a response, Victoria slammed the door shut. She grasped Sebastian’s arm and effortlessly pulled him into the emergency stairs, despite him being taller than her.

Christina settled into her bed and scrolled on her phone, waiting for Victoria and Sebastian to return to her ward.

Obviously, Nathaniel wouldn’t let her know where Miranda was, so her only hope was Sebastian.

Aware of the futility of extracting information from Sebastian, Christina turned her attention to Victoria, believing that she would be a valuable ally.

With that thought in mind, she quickly sent Victoria a message on WhatsApp and proceeded to scroll through social media on her phone, biding her time.
