Let Me Stay The Night

Lyle replied, “No. She left after apologizing and leaving behind the money for the medical expenses. Mrs. Hadley, if you have something to ask her, I’ll get her to come back.”

“No need. It’s nothing important. Just let her be.” Christina did not wish to see Anya and had nothing to talk to her about. Whenever they saw each other, they would either insult each other or get into an argument, or the conversation would always lead to a discussion about money.

Christina’s money did not appear out of thin air. She had already drawn the line with Anya during the division of the Gibson family’s assets back then. If Anya had even an ounce of self-respect, she wouldn’t be finding trouble with Christina all the time.

Christina had to host two meetings that afternoon, and she did not have much free time before that. The only chance for her to rest was after breakfast

“Any news from Mr. Hadley?” Christina turned to look at Lyle after removing her coat and hanging it on the coat rack.

“We have managed to get in touch with Mr. Taggart. Everything is well with Mr. Hadley. Mr. Hadley has also instructed his subordinate to pass a message to you, telling you not to worry.

“All right.” A rare joyful smile appeared on Christina’s face. Feeling less gloomy, she said, “I’m going to get some rest. Wake me up after an hour.”

“Understood.” Lyle walked out of the lounge and stood guard outside the door.

After Anya came out of Gibson Corporation and got into her car which was parked by the roadside, her phone started ringing.

Without looking at the caller ID, she picked up the call and started lashing out at the other party. “Why are you in such a rush? I will return whatever I owe you!”

“Anya, did you and your mother steal money to gamble again?”

She glanced at the phone screen, and her heart sank. “Yerek, I don’t gamble. I didn’t check who it was before I picked up. I thought it was a previous creditor calling to ask for payment. I wasn’t scolding you,” she explained in
