Chapter 57 What Are You Smiling For

“Didn’t you say you’d call me immediately when something arises?”

Nathaniel leaned closer, making his fiery gaze appear rather horrifying.

Christina could not help but blink. It was her first time seeing him being emotional and completely. unlike his usual calm self. That’s not true. The last time he lost his cool was when I got into trouble on the road.

Nathaniel would always behave that way when he was worried about her safety.

A subtle smile crept to her lips. It’s nice to have someone worry about me.

However, Nathaniel furrowed his brows. “What are you smiling for? I’m feeling angry here!”

The smile on Christina’s lips deepened. She lifted her arms and wrapped them around his neck.

Before Nathaniel could come to his senses, she exerted more force and closed the distance between them by lifting her head slightly to kiss his lips.

Their breathing grew louder as their breaths intertwined, and their hearts beat faster.

The gentle kiss grew passionate and hot, making Christina feel disoriented.

When Christina woke up again, it was already the next morning.

It was drizzling outside. The moment she spotted the clothes that were torn into pieces, her cheeks. flushed.

She had failed to hold herself back and let Nathaniel succeed.

As she sat up, she saw a brand-new dress sitting on the couch.

Hence, she walked into the bathroom to get dressed. The second she looked into the mirror and saw the red marks on her body, her face flushed redder.

The marks were like voices screaming out to her, informing her of how chaotic last night had been. She hurriedly put on her clothes to cover the marks. Thankfully, the clothes fit her perfectly,

After that, she went downstairs. Nathaniel waited for her to finish her breakfast before sending her to Radiant Corporation.

Upon arriving at the office, Gina told her to not work that day. Instead, Christina was to go home and pack some clothes before joining the film crew.

“Aren’t I supposed to join the crew at the end of the month?” Christina asked. She had yet to settle her mother’s surgery.

Gina sighed helplessly. “These are orders from the higher-ups. I don’t have a say in this. Hurry up and get ready. We’re leaving in two hours.”

With that, she left to get ready,

Meanwhile, Christina left the company and rushed to the hospital.

She was panting heavily when she arrived at the nurses’ station. “Hello, miss. Could I please pay half of the surgery fees first so you could save my mother?”

As she spoke, her voice sounded choked. After all, her mother was in critical condition. Christina would not be able to focus on her work if the matter was not settled.

The nurse recognized her. “Calm down, Ms. Steele. The fees were paid for this morning, wasn’t it? We were even ordered to have our hospital’s best cardiac surgeon operate on your mother.”

Christina froze. She had told no one she needed money, not even Hunter.

Although they were childhood friends, she was too shy to ask him for help again after all the help he had given her.
