The initially grand-looking mansion seemed to have been ruined by a bunch of debt collectors. The glass windows and walls had red paint all over, and obscene words were sprayed on them.
Some glass windows on the second floor were also broken, and the courtyard was filled with rubbish.
As soon as Christina opened the main door with her fingerprint, a few men shoved her aside and rushed out of the mansion.
As a result, Christina had to hold on to the door handle to balance herself.
Right after those men made their way out of the mansion, they were pinned to the ground by a few men dressed as bodyguards. Meanwhile, the driver quickly ran toward Christina and asked concernedly, “Are you all right, Mrs. Hadley?”
Christina nodded. “I’m fine. Who are those men?”
She meant the bodyguards, who had seemingly appeared out of nowhere.
The driver wiped the beads of sweat off of his forehead and answered, “Those are the men Mr. Hadley sent to protect you in secret.”
Christina furrowed her brows, but she didn’t seem vexed by Nathaniel’s decision. “Tie those intruders up and bring them into the house. I need to question them.”
With that, she entered the mansion. Although the place was ransacked, it appeared cleaner than the outside.
Christina then walked around the house and noticed that a lot of valuable items in the closet were stolen./ and the surveillance cameras were destroyed. Bailey has to see this in order to confirm the amount of damages caused.
When Christina was making her way back down the stairs, the bodyguards had already brought the intruders back into the mansion.
The intruders were a few unruly and insolent teenagers. Though they were caught red-handed, they didn’t show any fear or remorse and started cursing at Christina.
