Chapter 235 The Punishment Of Possessiveness
A surge of anger welled up in his heart, and he lowered his head slightly to bite her lip.
Christina’s fragrance was untainted by the scent of any strange man. At that, Nathaniel finally felt somewhat relieved. However, his possessiveness became uncontrollable
He didn’t give Christina any chance to resist, and he didn’t even care that he had hurt her.

She let out a whimpering protest, her small fists pounding against his muscular chest, but her strength was too weak to push Nathaniel away.
“Let go of me…”
The metallic scent of blood filled her nostrils. Christina could only surrender as if she was prey being captured by a fierce beast.
After some time, Nathaniel finally released her.
Under the light, tears filled Christina’s eyes.
Did I hurt her, or is she sad? At that moment, Nathaniel felt his heart ache. “Does my kiss make you so upset?”
“You hurt me, and you still think you’re right?” Christina puffed her cheeks. How dare he act so righteous when he is wrong in the first place?
“It’s your punishment for not listening to me.”
“I’m not an object for you to compete for and show off. I have the freedom to make friends!”
Am I not allowed to interact with others in the future? Am I only allowed to interact with women? I’m a designer and will meet various people in the future. Is Nathaniel going to control all of it?
“Do I have to submit an application to you for every person I meet and every project I take? Can I only interact with them if you agree, and I should refuse if you don’t?”
What kind of person does he think I am?
Nathaniel was at a loss for words.
He was only concerned and worried about her.
“Get out! I don’t want to see you!”
Christina turned her back to him, not wanting to look at him.
There was a moment of silence as if they were the only people left in the world.
After quite some time, the sound of receding footsteps rang out, and the office fell quiet.
The following week, everything returned to normal.
Sharon’s condition improved, and her mood stabilized considerably, but she often cried out in her dreams, “Christina, forgive me! I didn’t mean to hide it from you…”
Christina thought Sharon was talking in her sleep. Hence, she didn’t pay much attention to Sharon’s words.
After all, Sharon seemed stable during the day.
A phone call came in while Christina was organizing documents in the office.
Sierra’s tone was reproachful as she said, “How long has it been since you returned to Scenic Garden Manor? Is this still your home? Not only are you not coming back, but you’re also encouraging Nathaniel to live with you in that shabby little hease! Are you even his wife? You better come back to Scenic Garden Manor right now!”
Christina was stunned. She had been comfortable living in Sharbrook Manor, and upon counting the days, she realized she had indeed not returned in a long time.
Sierra would go to Scenic Garden Manor every few days. Hence, she knew Christina and Nathaniel were staying at Sharbrook Manor temporarily.
She continued, “I have guests to entertain this afternoon. You better come home right now and clean up the house.”
With that, she angrily hung up the phone.
Christina could only sigh softly after hearing Sierra’s words.
She handed over her work to Rayne and left.
Upon returning to Scenic Garden Manor, the once tidy house looked messy, as if no one had cleaned it while she was away.
Sierra stood with her hands on her hips and commanded, “Look at how you manage this house. Things are all over the place! You have two hours to clean everything up. I have guests to entertain later.”
Christina was furious. I’m not a housekeeper. Why should I clean up?
“Sorry, Mrs. Hadley. Ms. Sierra didn’t allow us to clean up…”
The housekeepers and butler felt uneasy. It was their responsibility to do all those tasks, yet now Christina had to clean everything herself, which made them feel guilty.
Christina felt that it was pointless to argue with Sierra. Since she only needed to clean up the house, she would pretend to do so for a while and then leave.
“All right.”
Sierra was satisfied to see her so obedient. “Hurry up. None of you are allowed to help her.”
With that, Sierra walked away.
Christina picked up a cloth and started cleaning while the housekeepers secretly helped her when Sierra wasn’t looking.
Moments later, the sound of a car was heard outside.
Sierra’s laughter could be heard from the living room.

“Ms. Hadley, these seafood delicacies are gifts from my nom” A sweet, accented female voice sounded.
Sierra led a woman of similar age to Christina into the living room.
That woman was Alana Hernandez, the daughter of a famous scholarly family in the city.
Sierra had observed Christina carefully and deliberately found a woman with a similar appearance and age to introduce to Nathaniel
After all, differences would only be neticeable when there were comparisons.
Nathaniel likes his women young, right? There are countless young ladies in the city around Christina’s age. There will definitely be one that could surpass her.
“Christina, go and pour me a cup of tea.”
As soon as they entered, Sierra started giving orders without hesitation, putting her status as Christina’s elder to full use.
While holding a cleaning cloth, Christina glanced at both of them. In an instant, she could guess Sierra’s
intentions.
She scoffed in her heart. Will Aunt Sierra ever stop?
Heading to the kitchen, she soon brought out a pot of tea and placed it in front of the two.
Seeing the dark expression on Christina’s face, Sierra couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.
Infuriating Christina made her happy!
Alana looked around the surroundings, observing the unique decorations and numerous valuable paintings.
She had heard that Nathaniel was very handsome. It would be great if they hit it off.
Alana picked up the teacup, but right as she was about to take a sip, she put it down with a disgusted. expression. “Ms. Hadley, your housekeeper doesn’t seem to pay attention to hygiene, does she? The cup smells like a cleaning cloth.”
Housekeeper?
Christina’s eyes widened instantly. Which part of me looks like a housekeeper?
Sierra smirked as she said mockingly, “Don’t mind her. She’s just an uneducated housekeeper, nothing like you, Alana. You are educated and well-mannered, a true lady from a good family!”
Alana smiled shyly, flattered.
That was what she thought too.
Seeing Christina’s expression becoming even grimmer, Sierra continued to add fuel to the fire. “The more I look at you, the more I think you’re a perfect match for Nathaniel!”
“Ms. Hadley, don’t tease me. Mr. Hadley has high standards. He might not like me.” Alana blushed shyly.
How could Mr. Hadley not like me when I’m so perfect?
After all, I come from a scholarly family, and my grandparents are both professors. Which other girl in the city can compare to me?
Christina didn’t hesitate to roll her eyes at the two.
“You’re right. Nathaniel indeed wouldn’t like you. Just one look at you, and it’s obvious how scheming you. are! What a pretentious woman!”
Alana’s smile froze, and she glared at Christina angrily. “You…!”
The harsh words she wanted to spit out stopped at the tip of her tongue.
She realized she couldn’t lose her composure in front of Sierra.
