Let Me Stay The Night Chapter 573 Get into Trouble

Chapter 573 Get into TroubleNathaniel raked his icy gaze across the people on the screen. They fell silent, not daring to utter a
word. His question was both direct and sharp.
The bay project was still in its preliminary phase, attracting numerous companies competing for the bid
to supply materials to Hadley Corporation. Even if Nathaniel agreed to meet with Winston, it didn’t
necessarily imply that their discussion would revolve around this specific project.
Hadley Corporation had investments in a wide range of industries and undertook hundreds of projects,
while Raveworks Enterprise also dabbled in other industries other than the construction industry.
Furthermore, the construction supplier for the bay project had not been finalized yet, so Percy’s
insinuation that Nathaniel had already decided to collaborate with Raveworks Enterprise seemed
dubious and raised suspicions.
In a way, Percy had just dug his own grave.
Nathaniel despised people who accepted bribes and exploited the company for personal gain,
prioritizing their own profits over ethical conduct.
Percy quickly replayed Nathaniel’s words in his mind as a bone–chilling sensation ran down his spine.
He stammered, “I heard it from someone else. A company recently signed a low–priced contract with
Winston, and the batch of construction materials provided by Raveworks Enterprise to their company
happens to be the same batch that Hadley Corporation specifically ordered from them a while ago.
Moreover, many people are aware that you’ve been socializing and discussing the possibility of
cooperation with Mr. Labarge frequently.”
Nathaniel remarked pointedly, “Mr. Sutton, it seems that you know my schedulepretty well.” Percy strained his mind, desperately searching for a suitable response, barely managing to
hold on. He wished he could abruptly end the conference call, but doing so would only reveal his guilt.
Nathaniel would never let him off the hook if he did that.
The reasons behind Nathaniel’s sudden change remained unknown, but he had recently initiated a
restructuring of Hadley Corporation. Along with it came unpredictable reshuffling of the staff, seemingly
driven by his mood. The entire company was gripped with fear due to his erratic and unpredictable
decisions.
The board of directors was really not amused. In order to exert more decision–making power within
Hadley Corporation, they not only relied on their shares but also on the trusted aides they strategically
placed within the company. These trusted allies helped balance the pressures coming from different
sides, ensuring the board’s influence and control were maintained.
Percy forced a dry laugh, attempting to downplay the situation. “I’m merely looking out for the
company’s profits and gathering information through socializing with others. Mr. Hadley, please don’t
take it too seriously.”
Nathaniel whirled around and ordered Sebastian, “End the meeting now. We’ll talk when I go back to
the office.”
After the meeting ended, Percy could finally heave a sigh of relief. He sank into his chair and panted,
belatedly realizing that his shirt was drenched in cold sweat.
Feeling frustrated, he entered the adjoining room in his office to change his clothes before discreetly
slipping into the restroom to make a call.
“That despicable Nathaniel is starting to suspect me. I fear I won’t be able to handle the upcoming
tasks on your behalf any longer. It would be best for you to find someone else for that role.”Christina slept through the afternoon and only woke up in the evening. She looked calm by the time
she woke up.
Nathaniel remained with her at all times, meticulously taking care of her.
After dinner, Christina insisted on visiting Sharon. Nathaniel couldn’t persuade her to change her mind
and caved in.
When the doctor informed Christina that the knife was only one centimeter from piercing Sharon’s
heart, a wave of shock and disbelief washed over her.
“There’s no need to panic. Ms. Zapler underwent major surgery, but her recovery is progressing well.
Although the wound was deep, it did not pose a life–threatening risk. Just ensure she takes the
necessary precautions and she will recover smoothly. As her family, it’s important to be mindful of not
allowing her to become too emotionally strained during this time,” the doctor advised them with a
serious expression. While supporting Christina, Nathaniel shot the doctor a look. The doctor got his hint
and made up an excuse to leave.
“I want to get discharged right now,” Christina demanded angrily as she glanced at an unconscious
Sharon “Miranda hurt Mom, and I want her to pay for it.”
Nathaniel frowned. “Considering the complications you’ve experienced during your pregnancy, the
doctor strongly recommended that you stay in the hospital for a few days for observation. It’s important
not to exert yourself by traveling or engaging in strenuous activities. In the meantime, I’ve instructed
Sebastian to keep Miranda hostage. Once you’ve fully recovered, you can pursue your revenge.”
However, Christina couldn’t wait anymore.
Every time she saw Sharon, she couldn’t stop herself from imagining Miranda stabbing Sharon.Christina had once believed that with the Steele family’s bankruptcy, Miranda and Emilia would lose
their backing and face the consequences they deserved. She thought their troubles would come to an
end, and they would no longer be a threat to her and Sharon.
However, the harsh reality shattered her innocent expectations.
As the saying goes, “a rotten apple spoils the whole barrel.”
Christina had made up her mind not to spare anyone. She was determined to get rid of the rotten apple
thoroughly.
Christina placed a hand on her stomach, her gaze fixed on Sharon for a moment. After a brief pause,
she replied in a soft tone, “Okay.”
They spent about an hour in Sharon’s ward before Nathaniel escorted Christina back to her own ward.
Nathaniel made Sebastian take care of her while he returned to the company to attend to his mounting
workload.
Sebastian carried out Nathaniel’s orders thoroughly by ensuring that all her needs were met.
Christina had slept for a whole day, so she was invigorated and full of energy,
“Nathaniel told me that you kept Miranda locked up,” she remarked.
Sebastian instantly put his guard up. “Yes, Mr. Hadley instructed me to hand her over to you once you
have recovered and are discharged from the hospital.”
Christina threw the covers away and hopped off her bed. Sporting a chilling smile, she proclaimed,
“Let’s make that happen today, Mr. Taggart. Take me to her immediately. I have no other engagements
for the day, and I’m eager to get started.”Sebastian was taken aback. “I’m afraid I cannot take on the responsibility if any harm befalls you. It
would be better to wait for Mr. Hadley’s return and discuss this with him.”
He knew better than to attempt to take Christina out of the hospital without Nathaniel’s approval.
Christina had decided to teach Miranda a lesson today. “Forget it. Mr. Taggart, you must be busy. Just
tell me the address, and I’ll head there myself.”
Grabbing her jacket, she put it on and strode to the door.
Sebastian was caught in a dilemma. He hurriedly blocked her path and blurted out, “Mrs. Hadley, Ms.
Lesley is on her way to visit you. She just found out that you’re in the hospital, and I believe she would
be quite upset if she arrived to find that you weren’t here.
Those who knew Victoria well were well aware of her temper.
Christina glanced at Sebastian, clearly considering his words.
“Mr. Taggart, it appears that you have a close relationship with my junior, don’t you?” Christina inquired,
her gaze piercing.
Sebastian couldn’t muster the courage to meet her eyes and replied rather casually, “Ms. Lesley and I
are just friends. We’re not romantically linked to each other.”
novelbin“Oh, I see.” Christina gave him an amused look before shifting her gaze to the figure standing at the
door.
“Mr. Taggart, I believe you’re in huge trouble.”
