Chapter 72 Special Privileges

“Christina!”

Brayden’s heart raced with excitement as he looked at the person who had staggered into his arms.

“Brayden? What are you doing here?” Christina asked, a bit surprised.

It felt like encountering a familiar face in a foreign land.

Brayden was wearing an extremely simple white shirt with the cuffs folded back, revealing half of his clean and strong arms.

Standing under the moonlight, he appeared gentle and refined, like a character in a beautiful watercolor painting.

“I opened a studio nearby. What about you?” Brayden squatted down to help her pick up the fallen items.

Christina took the bag and said, “The company assigned me to manage a branch store here.”

“What a coincidence! How about we find somewhere near to sit for a bit?” Brayden suggested.

After hesitating for a moment, Christina agreed.

Meanwhile, in the city center.

Nathaniel had just finished a meeting.

Originally, the meeting was scheduled for tomorrow, but he made time to handle it in advance.

After the meeting ended, Madison walked over and said, “Mr. Hadley, let’s go for a run together tomorrow. Sebastian, would you like to join us?”

In the past, the three of them used to go running together quite often as a way to exercise their bodies. They would then enjoy breakfast together after their workout.

Madison really missed those days.

Although it wasn’t a date with Nathaniel, it still counted as a cherished memory between them.

Nathaniel stood up and glanced at them. “You and Sebastian go ahead. I have something to do tonight, and I’ll be back a bit late tomorrow.”

After saying that, he walked out.

Madison watched him leave with confusion, feeling a sense of loss in her heart.

Sebastian, seeing her like this, couldn’t help but gently remind her, “Mr. Hadley is going to see Mrs. Hadley.”

After saying that, he walked out.

Madison’s eyes dimmed, and her heart ached even more as if pierced by something sharp.

This was her first time seeing Nathaniel put in so much effort for a woman.

Unfortunately, that woman was not her.

In the café, Brayden and Christina ordered hot drinks and snacks.

“It’s been so long since we’ve seen each other after the last time we parted. I really didn’t expect to meet you here,” Brayden exclaimed.

Christina smiled slightly. “Yeah. Have you been busy lately?”

The two of them chatted casually, just like old classmates would.

Right as they were paying the bill, a dark figure walked straight up to the two of them from the

entrance.

The figure was exuding a chilling aura, causing the surrounding temperature to drop by several degrees.

Christina was dumbfounded and in disbelief as she stared at the handsome and cold man in front of her.
