Let Me Stay The Night

Christina didn’t expect Nigel to take the initiative to contact Nathaniel for a collaboration. The grudge between the Hadley family and the Gibson family has reached the point of no return. What could possibly be Nigel’s goal but money?

“Are my father and grandmother aware of Nigel’s interest in working with you?” she asked.

“Gibson Corporation is currently helmed by Nigel, and he was always Mrs. Lazuli’s favorite. However, if your father and Mrs. Lazuli learn of this news, they’ll forbid him from doing this, considering how much they detest the Hadley family. I suspect that Nigel hasn’t mentioned it to them yet.”

When I was first brought back to the Gibson family by Mrs. Lazuli, the people who opposed this notion the most were Anya and her family. Nigel sure knows how to shift the blame and play the role of peacemaker in the Gibson family. However, I’m not an innocent girl. Without Nigel’s support. Anya wouldn’t have openly targeted and ostracized me. As such, Anya is merely a tool for Nigel to deal with me. “Will you agree to the conditions Nigel listed?” asked Christina.

Hugging her, Nathaniel smiled tenderly. “The decision is in your hand, not mine. I can’t possibly enrage my wife in the pursuit of money.”

Touched, Christina kissed his lips. “Let’s handle Nigel first. I want to see what he’s planning.”

Without hesitation, Nathaniel agreed. “Sure! I’ll do as you say. Nigel’s asking me for a favor, and the Gibson family isn’t as glorious as it was in the past. Hence, even if he’s eager to execute whatever malicious plan he has in mind, he won’t act recklessly.” I’ve been paying close attention to the Gibson family’s activities. To gather funds, they have been selling their properties and stocks at a low price en masse. The Gibson family bullied Christina when they were in their glory days. However, now that they’re declining, they reach out to her for aid. That’s why I’ve asked people to block any messages from the Gibson family to prevent them from contacting her. I know Christina is already disheartened by the Gibson family’s actions. If the scandals related to the Gibson family aren’t serious, she won’t pay attention to them whatsoever.

Christina was uninterested in the Gibson family’s latest state, so she yawned and asked, “When can we eat. Nathaniel? I’m so sleepy.”

“Almost. Just a little longer. You can rest after dinner.”

After forcing herself to stay awake for half an hour, she dined, bathed, and slumbered.
