Chapter 246 A Caring Sister In Law

The anger brewing in Nathaniel’s eyes dissipated significantly.

He pulled Christina into his embrace as if they shared the same stance while gazing at Francis. “My wife is right. She’s just caring for you like an elder in the family expressing concern for a younger member of the household. I’ll hire two more caregivers to attend to your needs so you won’t have to trouble your sister- in-law.*

With that, he dragged Christina along and left the ward.

After leaving the hospital, the two arrived at the presidential suite of a five-star hotel.

Christina didn’t know how Nathaniel had found out her whereabouts, but judging by his usual temperament, she figured he must be angry.

He remained silent along the way, causing Christina’s guilt to intensify. Nothing happened, yet it had caused a misunderstanding. “Nathaniel, 1—”

Before she could speak, Nathaniel pushed her into the bathroom.

The warm hazy air lingering in the air added a hint of ambiguity to the atmosphere. Christina riveted her big, charming eyes at the handsome man before her, not knowing what he was planning to do.

He dominceringly pinched her chin. A pensive and inscrutable look flashed across his eyes as he lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Recalling the scene at the hospital earlier, he felt discomfort churning within his chest. Nonetheless, he turned calmer after learning Christina didn’t harbor any romantic feelings toward Francis.

His heart softened further when he took in her frightened mien.

When he noticed the fair skin of her neck when her chin was lifted, his libido was swiftly roused.

“Take a shower to wash off the disinfectant smell on you” After saying that, he suppressed his lust and exited the bathroom.

Christina’s face flushed crimson. Why did he kiss me for no reason and leave just like that? Anyway, it seems like

hr not mad

After taking a shower, Nathaniel had someone send over a high-end gown for her to change into.

Although Christina wasn’t tall, the dress perfectly fitted her one-hundred-and-sixty-two-centimeter stature. The slightly split design on the side revealed her fair, slender legs.

Under the light, her bare and clean face shone like a piece of flawless emerald, evoking within anyone who lad their eyes on her a desire to protect her.

Subsequently, the two went downstairs. When they entered the VIP private room on the third floor, she saw several people sitting inside

Christina recognized those people, all of whom were well-known designers in the industry. She had seen them at a few gatherings previously.

“Did you purposefully arrange this for me?” She turned to look at Nathaniel.

At times, it was hard for her to imagine how a proud man like him would be so considerate and meticulous in helping her with career-related matters.

“They happened to have worked with Hadley Corporation before, so I thought we could have a small and casual gathering, no pressure.”

Nathaniel led Christina into the room and asked the waiter to open a bottle of their finest red wine.

The designers had heard in advance that Nathaniel’s wife was also a designer, but designers tended to have strong personalities and were not easily swayed by men of power.

They sized up Christina, noticing she was good-looking and dressed in an ordinary manner. However, the expression in her eyes was unique, as they seemed to shine with confidence.

The designer sitting to the right was Lime, and she wasn’t one to judge others by their appearance. “Mrs. Hadley. I heard you’re also a designer. Do you have any representative works?”

Representative works were the fastest way to get to know each other. As designers, they preferred to become acquainted with others through their works.

Christina didn’t mention her secret identity, Ada. Instead, she merely talked about her achievements during her time at Radiant Corporation.

Lime had been paying attention to Radiant Corporation’s development recently. “So, Radiant Corporation’s significant improvement in style happened because of you?”

In fact, Radiant Corporation’s clothing design was among the top in the country but was still far from being a stellar brand internationally.

The design circle wasn’t exactly expansive. Any talented designers were bound to be noticed by their

peers.

Christina flashed a faint smile. Although she no longer worked at Radiant Corporation, she was not in the habit of badmouthing her former company.

After chatting briefly about design-related matters, Nathaniel, being uninterested in that topic, left to deal with some work in the next room when he saw Christina could handle the situation rather well.

By the time he reentered the private room after finishing his work, Christina and the other designers were engaged in a pleasant conversation. They even exchanged contact information before leaving.

To be able to pick the brains of more experienced designers was a meaningful experience for Christina. When they learned Christina was starting her own studio, all of them promised to attend the opening ceremony to show their support.

“Thank you for deliberately arranging this session for me.” Christina realized expressing her gratitude verbally was somewhat inadequate.

“There’s no need to thank me. This is my obligation.” Nathaniel curled his lips into a smile, exuding his innate confidence and elegance.

Then, the two returned to the suite to rest.

It had been more than a week since they had last seen each other.

Christina sat on the couch while nestling in his embrace Countless sparks of affection flew between them.

as they gazed into each other’s eyes. She was wholly captivated by his exquisite facial features.

“I have to go back tomorrow morning. I’ll come to pick you up after the competition is over.” There was still plenty of work pending at Hadley Corporation. He had barely squeezed out some time to be there for

her.

“Okay.”

Since they returned from the hospital, Christina had been unnerved by Nathaniel’s unusually calm demeanor, fearing he might flip out and drag her back to Jadeborough or deliberately restrict her in some

way.

However, he remained gentle and tender as if he hadn’t taken to heart her staying overnight at the hospital with Francis.

He’s finally not acting petty for once. Should I reward him? Christina leaned in and took the initiative to kiss his lips, feeling the warmth of his skin.

Nathaniel’s gaze darkened. He was rarely passive when they were together. He raised his slender arms and wrapped them around her thin waist, feeling the softness of her skin on his palm. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Their intertwined shadows were cast on the carpet as the ambiance inside the room turned ambiguous.

The next day, sunlight filtered into the room through a crack, enveloping the fingertips of the girl lying at the edge of the bed with radiance.

Nathaniel requested the hotel to deliver the breakfast to their room. When they enjoyed their meal together, his phone rang.

In fact, his phone had been ringing since last night. He instinctively wanted to silence it, but Christina picked up the device and answered the call.

The video call connected, and before the person on the other end of the line, wearing a smile, could speak, her visage gradually stiffened.

“M-Mrs. Hadley?” Madison expression froze.

She thought Nathaniel had gone to work. Unexpectedly, he actually went to meet up with Christina. The unattended files are already piling up on his office desk, yet Nathaniel, a man who values his company so much, left a mountain of work behind to meet with Christina?

Christina picked up a strawberry with her fork and put it in her mouth before drawling, “What’s the matter, Ms. Taggart?”
