As soon as Christina and Bailey stepped out to the courtyard, some rich young men walked up and
greeted them
However, their attention was not on Bailey but on Christina.
Christina was supposed to be a foil, but now, she had become the protagonist.
She turned her head sideways and whispered into Bailey’s ear, “No wonder you worked so hard at
picking a dress for me earlier. Is this your motive? To shift their attention onto me so you could get out
of this sticky situation?”
Since her ruse was seen through, Bailey could only flash an awkward smile. “We’re besties, right? Just
do me a favor, will you? I’m tired of getting set up all the time.”
Christina smiled resignedly. Not wanting to disappoint Beatrice either, she fervently tried to upsell her
best friend. “Gabrielle learns business management. If you marry her in the future, she’ll be able to
help. you manage your family’s business. Oh yes, she’s also a very famous voice actress. She has a
really nice voice. You guys can search for the name ‘Bailey’ online. The one with the highest number of
followers is her account.”
Christina got fully engrossed in chatting with those rich young men, but she didn’t forget to mention. -
Bailey in almost every sentence.
Eventually, Bailey grew annoyed and fled the scene with Christina in tow. “My mort only asked you to
keep an eye on me. What do you think you’re doing? Why are you so serious about this?”
Christina responded with a smile. Lifting her gaze, she was attracted by a towering figure in the
banquet hall, and promptly, the smile on her face vanished.
So the banquet Nathaniel was talking about is this one, too.
Nathaniel was clad in a black suit with neatly combed short hair. His deep, frosty eyes looked like
abysses, and his exquisite features made him stand out among the crowd. The elegant and regal aura
he was emanating from head to toe was just one of a kind.
Another slender figure stood right beside him.
Noticing the change in Christina’s expression, Bailey followed her friend’s line of sight.
“Why is your husband with Madison?” she exclaimed in shock.
Rage instantly burned in Christina’s gaze. He went to Madison just because I didn’t agree to attend the
banquet with him?
Right then, Madison also noticed Christina’s presence. Her provocation-filled eyes had a hint of
smugness.
to them.
Pretending to lose her footing, Madison stumbled and clumsily leaned against Nathaniel Groaning in
pain, she woefully remarked, “Nathaniel, I think I sprained my ankle. Can you help me to the side to sit
down?”
There were two other guests around, so Nathaniel had no choice but to support her as they walked
away.
Initially, Madison was merely putting on an act so that Nathaniel would hold her, but she soon went

completely limp on his body as if she had become some kind of boneless animal.
All of a sudden, a figure appeared and blocked their way. Following that, the person pushed Madison.
causing the latter to almost crash onto the ground.
With her hands on her waist, Bailey furiously yelled, “Do you have no shame? How dare you seduce a
married man in public!”
“That’s enough, Bailey.” Christina quickly stopped Bailey. It was not because she wanted to help
Madison but because she did not want her best friend to become the laughingstock of the onlookers in
public.
When Madison recognized Bailey’s identity, her face paled drastically. “Ms. Cook, you’ve
misunderstood.”
Bailey let out a cold snort and mocked, “I didn’t. I saw with my own eyes that you threw yourself onto
Mr. Hadley. Don’t you know that he’s already taken? How shameless.”
Madison’s expression turned ashen. She could not find any words to defend herself.
Deliberately putting on an aggrieved look, she explained, “Christina, don’t get the wrong idea. It’s
purely a coincidence that Mr. Hadley and I ran into each other. We engaged in a brief conversation
simply because we had common interests. I sprained my ankle when I was about to leave just now,
and Mr. Hadley merely helped me out of concern.”
Coincidence? Common interests? Concern?
Her concise explanation had made her relationship with Nathaniel sound ambiguous.
Christina’s gaze darkened as she parted her lips and uttered. “That’s true. You’re Nathaniel’s ex-
subordinate, and there’s no reason for him to throw shade at you upon running into you again even
though you’ve committed an unforgivable mistake. If I were you, as long as I feel a wee bit guilty, I
wouldn’t dare to show myself before Nathaniel again. It seems like you’re much more thick-skinned
than I thought, Ms. Taggart.”
Bailey was secretly thrilled upon seeing how Christina retaliated against Madison, leaving Madison at a
loss for words.
My dear Christina has grown up. She doesn’t even bat an eyelid when she tears her enemy into
shreds!
“Let’s head inside first.”
Christina grabbed Bailey’s hand and turned to head inside..
They had only taken a few steps before Nathaniel caught up with them. His cold, handsome face wore
an expression way grimmer than earlier. “I want to talk to Christina.”
Deep down, Bailey obviously was against that idea, but at the same time, she understood that she had
to let the couple settle matters between themselves
Before leaving, she did not forget to warn the man. “Don’t you dare bully her, or else I won’t let

Once Bailey left, Nathaniel pulled Christina into a guest room.
At the sight of the muscular silhouette inching toward her, Christina felt an overwhelming pressure
enveloping her from head to toe.

Nathaniel grabbed her chin and lifted her head slightly. “Didn’t you say you have plans tonight? It turns
out you’re here to flirt with others?”
Flirt with others? Met
Christina scoffed as fury flashed in her gaze. “Mr. Hadley, when did you see me flirting with others?
You’re the one who’s acting all lovey-dovey with Madison!”
What’s more, he’s doing it in public. There are so many people watching. Talk about the pot calling the
kettle black!
Nathaniel shot Christina an amused look. In that instant, he felt his heart thumping with excitement. He
almost could not recall the last time he saw her getting jealous.
So, shell get jealous when she sees me being together with Madison?
“I was just helping her. I have no other intentions, he patiently explained.
Christina sneered disdainfully. “I don’t care whether you have other intentions or not. Can you let go of
me now?”
With that, she reached out and smacked his hands off.
Alas, that only made Nathaniel tighten his grip on her. “Mrs. Hadley, are you jealous? You look so
adorable when you’re jealous. I love it.”
Christina’s pupils constricted. What leads him to believe I’m jealous? I’m just angry at how he
slandered me earlier! Besides, since when did he become such a sweet-talker?
“Whatever you say. Can you let go of me now?” Christina snapped in annoyance.
“I’ll let you go after you make up for what you owe me earlier today.”
As soon as he said that, he planted a kiss on Christina’s lips without warning. The man’s domineering
and searing breath, laced with a light sandalwood scent, filled Christina’s lungs, leaving her in a daze.
Christina was captivated, but the moment she regained her senses, she lifted her hand and smacked
Nathaniel’s chest.
Is he insane? We’re at the Cook residence. Also, we didn’t lock the door when we came in earlier.
What if someone comes in and sees what we’re doing?
The mere thought of it left Christina wholly embarrassed.
Nathaniel grabbed her wrists, and without giving her a chance to say anything, he deepened the kiss.
“I’m going back.”
