Let Me Stay The Night

Instead of feeling excited and moved, Christina was unfazed when she heard those words. In fact, she e felt uneasy.

Right when Christina was about to utter something in response, Sheridan defused the tension by saying in a joking manner, “Don’t misunderstand me. I merely missed you as a friend. You’re the only friend who I can talk to openly. Hence, I’ll cherish our relationship.”

Christina gladly took the opportunity to get out of the awkward situation. “It’s my honor to be such a special friend of yours, Mr. Stone.”

“I’ll be going to Gibson Corporation tomorrow. While I’m there, I’ll send you a gift. Christina, treat it as a kind gesture and don’t reject it, okay?”

Even if Christina wanted to, she couldn’t reject his gift because Sheridan was one of the top three major shareholders in the company. I’ll eventually need to name my price if I want to regain all the shares.

“All right. See you tomorrow,” Christina answered.

For some reason, Christina felt as though Sheridan’s mood had improved massively after he heard what she said.

“I’m looking forward to see you tomorrow. Goodnight, Christina,” he said.

“Goodnight.”

Coincidentally, Nathaniel was exiting the bathroom, so he heard Christina saying goodnight to someone on the phone.

Angered, he approached her and pretended to ask casually, “Who’s calling you this late at night?”

Christina didn’t sense his jealousy, so she replied, “That was Sheridan. He’s meeting me at Gibson Corporation tomorrow because he said he wanted to send me a gift.”

A strong wave of jealousy surged within Nathaniel, and he sneered. “He’s good at flirting, isn’t he?”
