Chapter 23 Suitability.

Nathaniel seemed increasingly agitated. “Why are you always talking about getting a divorce? Those who have no clue about what’s going on will think I’ve been mistreating you.”

Christina looked into his eyes and noticed a hint of anger in his gaze. “I didn’t say you aren’t treating me well. It’s just that we’re not suitable for each other. Don’t you understand what I’m saying?” she asked. Sometimes, the distance between two individuals could be an unbridgeable abyss. What can I do to make him understand that?

Nathaniel fell into deep thought after hearing what she said. Seeing that he was distracted, Christina quickly pulled herself away from his embrace.

“Please think it through. I’ll give you the document as soon as possible.”

With that, Christina left.

By the time Nathaniel snapped out of his reverie, she was already long gone.

Christina then went back to draft a divorce agreement, print it out, and send it to him by mail.

After getting the important matter over with, she moved out of the university dorm.

The Steele family was never going to take her in, and the only person she could rely on in the city was her grandmother.

With only a suitcase, she hailed a taxi after exiting the university and headed toward the east side of

the city.

On that side of the city, an old woman in a floral skirt was seen standing in front of a two-story mansion. With a cane in one hand, she was craning her neck and glancing around.

A green taxi soon arrived at the entrance of the mansion. Christina paid the taxi fare and hurried out of the car with her suitcase.

“Hi, Granny!” Christina greeted before throwing herself into her grandmother’s arms as if she were still a child. “I’ve missed you dearly! Did you miss me?”

Christina hadn’t been back in a while, so when she was hugging her grandmother, Evelyn Henderson. Christina felt the warmth of a family member once again.

“I’ve missed you too, Christina! Let’s go in. I’ll make you something tasty.” Evelyn smiled and brought Christina into the house.

I haven’t been back in a long time, but the interior decoration is still the same. There’s that decorative piece with carvings in the middle of the hall facing the main entrance, and she’s still playing the same song on the record player! Christina would feel at ease every time she visited Evelyn.

“Christina, bring your suitcase into the room. I’ll go to the kitchen to cook you dinner. Although Evelyn was in her sixties, she was a strong, healthy woman who loved singing and cooking.

Christina replied in the affirmative and went to the room with her suitcase.

The decoration in the room was simple. Evelyn had known Christina was coming back, so the elderly woman had put on brand new sheets with daisies printed on them After keeping her suitcase away.

Christina took out her laptop and started sending out her resume.

To be safe, she decided to send it out to multiple design companies at once. After sending out her resume, she texted her store manager to inform the latter of her resignation.

The store manager replied to Christina’s text almost immediately. That day. Xandra and Nathaniel had bought a lot of stuff from the store, so the manager ended up transferring Christina the salary and commission she had made over the past few days.
