Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 754 Unwanted Gift 

Christina felt nothing toward Azure, so she had no qualms about doing so.

Hesitantly, Lyle disclosed. “The Stone family has already suppressed the discussion. If we intentionally make it a trending topic, the Stone family will come looking for trouble.”

Fearlessly, Christina replied, “That’s exactly what we want. Barnaby cares about his dignity. He wants the outside world to see him as an affectionate man. While he may suppress trending topics once, he won’t do it again. Even if he knows I’m pulling the strings behind the scene, he can only swallow his anger and let it happen.”

If Christina acquires evidence related to Barnaby on the case from fifteen years ago, he’ll face much more dire consequences than going on trending and getting lambasted by netizens. “I understand now.” Lyle promptly turned around and left.

Victoria delegated the rest of her work to Rayne before approaching Christina with Hera in tow. “Have you thought about where you’ll bring Hera and me for a fancy meal, Christina? We’re ready to leave.”

Christina smiled. “What do you want to eat? I’ll book us a table now.”

In response, Victoria turned to Hera. “Are you craving any food specifically?”

Hera wasn’t picky, so she said, “I’m good with anything, so I’ll let Ms. Steele decide. Food isn’t something I’m particular about.”

“In that case, let me choose a place for you. We’ll go to the restaurant you’ve mentioned to me a few times before. It’s not far from here, so we can just walk there. It’ll be quicker than traveling by car since we won’t be stuck in traffic. What do you think?”

After Hera turned to Christina, the latter nodded. “We’ll listen to Victoria, then. I’ll book our table now.”

She promptly made a call and booked a table before sending a text message to Nathaniel, informing him of her plans.

Nathaniel was probably busy because he didn’t reply immediately Christina didn’t think much about it. Abruptly, Hera informed apologetically, “I need to visit the restroom first. Please wait for me. Ms. Steele
