Let Me Stay The Night Chapter 278

Can You Not Punish Me

With his face reddened in embarrassment, Frank didn’t even know how to explain himself.

He dared not utter a single word after stuttering for a long while.

Thereafter, a flurry of heavy footsteps could be heard entering the room. Following that, a man stepped
into the room with an entourage of professional bodyguards behind him.

As Nathaniel’s towering figure cast a long shadow in the room, his frosty expression and clenched jaw
exuded an air of hostility.

His imposing presence immediately filled the room with an icy tension.

“Mr. Hadley, I’ll discuss the paperwork needed with the police,” the lawyer informed Nathaniel before
heading off.

After that, Nathaniel shifted his deep–set eyes toward Christina as he walked over to her.

“Are you hurt?”

Christina looked up and blinked innocently. “I’m not, but-

That’s all that matters.” Nathaniel couldn’t care less about those who had nothing to do with him.

Paying no heed to everyone else in the room, he wrapped his arm around her slender waist and pulled
her into his embrace protectively.

Christina couldn’t help but blush upon noticing the look of surprise on everyone else’s faces.
“Nathaniel, we’re not alone.”



We’d better keep a low profile with so many people watching.

She tried pushing Nathaniel away, but her efforts were futile due to the huge gap in their strength.
There was no way she could move him unless Nathaniel willingly let her go.

Meanwhile, Rayne was stunned by what she saw, her mind overwhelmed by the sudden revelation.

Why is Mr. Hadley here? I didn’t see Christina make any calls just now. On top of that, the atmosphere
within the room changed the moment he entered.

It instantly dawned upon her why Christina was so calm–she had the backing of a powerful protector.
Meanwhile, at the sight of the pair hugging each other, Frank understood why Nathaniel had threatened
him despite the lack of bad blood between them.

It turns out that Christina is his woman! No wonder that young lady’s so arrogant!

Despite the boiling rage within him, Frank didn’t have the guts to show it. All he could do was seethe as
he asked, “Christina, didn’t you say that you didn’t have a boyfriend? Why did you lie to me?”

Poking her head out of Nathaniel’s embrace, Christina fumed, “It’s true that I don’t have a boyfriend.
This is my husband!”

What? Husband?

Frank suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning as his eyelids twitched. Recalling how he had
framed Christina earlier, he realized that he had signed his own death warrant.

If only he had known that Nathaniel was Christina’s husband, he wouldn’t have had the courage to
make a move on her.



Unfortunately, it was now too late for regrets. If Nathaniel was to hold him responsible, he didn’t dare
imagine the consequences that would follow.

Even his entire wealth wouldn’t be enough to compensate for his mistake.

With tears welling up in his eyes, Frank grabbed the police officer’s hand. “Officer, can I report? Please
let me do it. I beg of you!”

The officer shot him a look of displeasure. “What do you think this place is? Does it look like
somewhere you can mess around? If you want to withdraw your report, the opposing party might hold
responsible for making baseless accusations!”

From the beginning, the officer was skeptical about Frank’s story that Christina had tried to seduce him
for the sake of fame and fortune.

After all, she looked like a kind and decent lady who would never do something so immoral.

If it weren’t for the wounds on Frank’s face, there was no way anyone would believe that he was the
victim.

“Once I withdraw my report, she won’t pursue the matter. Wouldn’t it all work out, officer?” Frank
pleaded piteously like a criminal begging for forgiveness.

At that moment, Nathaniel’s lawyer entered the room with a grim look on his face and a bunch of
documents in his hand. “Mr. Emerson, Mr. Hadley wants to know if you’re going to continue filing the
police report. He’s prepared to fight it to the end.”

In contrast to his aggressive behavior earlier, Frank flashed a sycophantic smile. “I’m withdrawing the
report. This is nothing but a misunderstanding. I’m the one who has made a mistake”



“If you’re not going to file the report, please sign this document. The lawyer placed a settlement
agreement in front of Frank.

“I will. I’ll sign it right now.” Without a moment’s hesitation, Frank picked up a pen and put his signature
down.

After handing the document over, he whispered into the lawyer’s ear. “Please tell Mr. Hadley that this is
nothing but a misunderstanding. I’ll never show my face in front of Christina ever agin

The lawyer took the settlement agreement away with a solemn expression. “I’m sorry, but you had
better speak to Mr. Hadley directly with regard to such personal matters.”

With that, he walked out of the room.

After taking Frank’s statement for over an hour, the officer wasn’t going to let the matter slide just
because the former withdrew his report.

“Even if the opposing party doesn’t pursue the matter, you’ll be detained for five days and fined five
hundred for filing a false report. Your sentence starts this very moment!”

On the brink of tears, Frank almost collapsed to his knees. “I’m sorry. Can you spare me from any
punishment?”

“Do you think the police station is a place where you can do whatever you want? Take him away!”
Regardless of Frank’s pleas, the officer dragged him out without fear or favor.

Satisfied with the outcome, Christina even praised the officer for doing a good job upholding justice.
Upon leaving the police station, Christina got Sebastian to send Rayne home.

As a result, Madison, Christina, and Nathaniel shared the same car on the way home.



Madison turned around from the front passenger seat. “I’m glad that you’re unharmed, Mrs. Hadley,
Fortunately, there weren’t any reporters around. Otherwise, Hadley Corporation’s reputation would be
ruined if word of this got out.”

Despite the concerned expression on her face, she was insinuating that Christina almost created
problems. for the company

The latter obviously knew of the consequences, but there was no way she would allow herself to be
taken advantage of

Turning around, Christina leaned against Nathaniel. “I was just defending myself when Mr. Emerson
made advances on me. Even if news of the incident spread, I’m definitely not in the wrong, isn’t that
right, Nathaniel?”

After humming in agreement, Nathaniel shot Madison a reprimanding look.

Naturally, Madison didn’t dare comment any further, for she was well aware of how Nathaniel hated
hearing anyone speak ill of Christina.

Thus, she changed the topic “Mr. Hadley, I have yet to complete my report on the contract just now. Do
you want to continue, or shall I meet you in your office tomorrow morning?”

Before their arrival, they were discussing details of an important project where negotiations with their
partner were to be held the next afternoon.

That was why they had to be prepared beforehand.

After glancing at his watch, Nathaniel flatly replied, “We’ll talk at Scenic Garden Manor.”

“All right.”



Upon returning to Scenic Garden Manor, Nathaniel and Madison entered the study.

As for Christina, the first thing she did was get a hot shower after an exhausting day.

The warm water helped her tense muscles to relax. After she emerged from the bathroom, she noticed
that the study’s lights were still on.

Hence, she prepared some desserts and brought them into the room.

When she saw the two in a serious discussion. Christina placed the desserts by the side, as she didn’t
want to interrupt.

Just as she was about to leave, she felt a warm palm wrap grip her wrist.
