A Crazy Night

Chapter 462 Collaboration With Nathaniel

As soon as Nathaniel got her phone, he immediately deleted the newly added contact numbers. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Why are you deleting my contacts?” Christina saw what he was doing and tried to snatch her phone back anxiously

Nathaniel refused. He didn’t even bother looking carefully, as he was deleting any contact name that seemed masculine. “Why? Are you upset that I deleted your potential suitors? Are you having a great time chatting with these guys?”

She looks tense when she’s with me, but she’s smiling at everyone else.

Christina froze momentarily. Was Nathaniel also there? Did he see me chatting with them?

It was quite remarkable that he could hold it in until now with his temperament.

Christina regained her senses and frowned. She said anxiously. “Those are my clients’ numbers! Don’t delete them randomly!”

Nathaniel deleted a few more before passing her phone back to her.

Christina looked at her phone and noticed that more than half of the contacts were gone, including Francis.

Cold sweat began to form on her forehead. She quickly put the phone back into her handbag and zipped it as if she was guarding against a thief.

Nathaniel grabbed her hand again and pulled her out of the place. Then, he dragged her into his car.

Once the car door was closed, the driver drove off.

“Let go of me! I want to go home.” Christina’s voice held a tinge of frustration, and she knitted her eyebrows.

Nathaniel remained calm and composed as he looked out of the window. “If you don’t want your two children to start calling another woman Mommy, you’d better behave yourself.”

The mention of her two children immediately captured Christina’s attention. “Don’t forget what your promised me initially. You said you wouldn’t fight for the children’s custody.”

Nathaniel turned to glance at her. “I will do that as long as you cooperate with me with the divorce proceedings.”

Christina snorted inwardly, as she knew he didn’t intend to divorce her. It was nothing more than a strategic delay. “I don’t understand. It’s just a simple matter of putting your signature on a form. Why do you have to make it so complicated?”

“I’ll be the one who decides if it’s complicated or simple,” Nathaniel left no room for her to continue questioning.

Soon, the car stopped by a hotel.

Nathaniel dragged Christina up the stairs. When they entered the room, Christina became anxious and crossed her arms over her chest. She looked at Nathaniel warily. “What are you planning to do?”

Nathaniel was amused when he turned around and saw her defensive demeanor. He took out his phone and made a video call. The call quickly connected.

“Daddy, where are you? Did you find Mommy yet?”

“Mommy! Where’s Mommy? I want to see her!”

The children stared eagerly at the phone screen, trying to see their mother.

In reality, they had wanted to call her after she left. However, Nathaniel kept all their electronic devices, claiming that his gesture was to protect their eyes.

He was only preventing them from contacting their mother secretly.

Then, he passed them back their devices before he left for Hallsbay.

Nathaniel smiled and passed his phone to Christina. “The children miss you.”

Christina took the phone. Her longing for them intensified as she looked at the two familiar faces. All of a sudden, she began tearing up.

She smiled. “Lucas, Camila.”

Upon seeing their mother, Lucas’ and Camila’s brows furrowed. They wanted to embrace Christina very badly.

Lucas complained, “Mommy, there’s a fierce lady who came to our house and wanted us to call her Mommy!”

“We only have one Mommy! We don’t want her!”

Christina frowned. She guessed that the woman the children were talking about was most likely Madison. She glared at Nathaniel.

Lucas asked, “Mommy, when are you coming back? Didn’t you promise to take us to see Granddad and Great-Granny?”

“Mommy, I miss you. Mommy!” Camila spoke while choking back tears. She blinked her watery eyes repeatedly, and Christina’s heart melted at the sight.

Christina felt a burning sensation in her nose. “I miss you guys too. Mommy will go back to accompany you guys soon!”

“Really?” The two kids’ eyes lit up.

Christina nodded. She had decided to work with Nathaniel, then go back to see her kids. “I won’t lie to you guys. It’s getting late. Aren’t you sleeping? You might get eye bags, and you won’t look good anymore!”

Christina had always tried to instill the habit of not staying up late in her children.

Camila and Lucas were very obedient. Upon hearing Christina’s reminder, they immediately wanted to hang up the phone. “Mommy, come and pick us up soon. Good night, and we love you!”

“Good night!” Christina blew a kiss at the screen and then hung up the phone.

With her children’s encouragement, Christina felt revitalized!

When she returned the phone to Nathaniel, she said, “On behalf of Gibson Corporation, I agree to cooperate with Hadley Corporation. We will sign the contract at the company tomorrow,”

Nathaniel stared at her intently and hugged her. He whispered in her car, “Why don’t you stay here tonight?”

Christina’s heart pounded, and she pushed his hands away. “Why don’t you call Ms. Taggart to accompany you?”

With that, she turned around and left

Nathaniel still didn’t understand the reason for her cold treatment.

In the meantime, Anya started throwing a tantrum the moment she entered her room in the Gibson residence.

That Christina! How dare she make me lose tens of millions!

That was the capital for her new company, which she had saved so hard for. Not only did she lose a large sum of money, but she also made a fool of herself.

She would never let Christina off easily.

The next day. Anya went to see Yerek and told him the plan she had thought about all night.

“Yerek, you have to help me! We can’t let Christina bully us!” Anya bellowed.

She wished she could tear Christina apart to vent her anger.

Yerek had given Christina an opportunity. Since she was unwilling to take it, she couldn’t blame him for what he was going to do.

He patted her shoulders lightly. “Don’t worry. Nothing will go wrong.”

“I believe you!”

Christina had a lot of work, so she made plans with Nathaniel to sign the contract in the evening.

She was in the office the entire day. As the sun started to set from the window behind her, her colleagues gradually left one after another.

Lina brought the revised contract. “Ms. Steele, this is the contract. Do you really not need me to accompany you tonight?”

“There’s no need. The legal department has gone through the documents, and it’s just a matter of signing them,” Christina replied.

Lina nodded and left after placing the contract on the desk.

Christina sat in the office, organizing the documents. The room gradually turned colder, and a strong medicinal odor quickly spread.
