Rayne quickly said. “They’ll be coming to discuss the details with you tomorrow at nine.”
“Okay. Look into the company’s background and ensure that they’re trustworthy,” said Christina.
We have to check carefully before proceeding. What if they’re scammers?
After work, Christina brought the contract with her back to Scenic Garden Manor.
Nathaniel had finished work early that day. The first thing he did upon arriving home was ask Raymond if Christina was back yet.
Raymond replied with a smile, “Mrs. Hadley returned home early today. She is waiting for you in the study.
“All right.”
Nathaniel immediately ascended the stairs and headed to the study.
He opened the door and was greeted by the sight of Christina in a white nightgown, curling up in his black. office chair. The bright lights in the room highlighted the stark difference between the two colors.
She seemed to have nodded off while waiting for him. Her dark and long eyelashes cast shadows under her eyes, making her look like a cat that was taking a nap on its owner’s chair.
At the sound of the man’s footsteps, Christina opened her eyes. “You’re back.”
She waddled over to Nathaniel, tugged on his arm, and sat him down in the chair. After taking his suit jacket from him, she handed him a glass of warm milk. “You’ve had a tiring day. Darling. Have some milk
and relax.”
Nathaniel broke into a smile as he watched her fuss over him. Tapping her on the nose, he said lovingly, “You’re clearly up to something. Out with it. Is there something you want my help with?”
Christina was a little embarrassed that he saw through her act right away and grinned sheepishly. “You’re so smart, Darling.”
She pulled out the contract and said proudly. “Look! There’s a company that wants to work with me. I’m afraid they might be scamming me, so I want you to help me examine if there’s anything wrong with this
contract.”
Deciphering complicated contracts like this wasn’t her strong suit, but it was Nathaniel’s. With years of experience in reading such documents, he would definitely be able to spot any issues.
The corners of Nathaniel’s lips curled to form a smile as he pulled Christina into his arms.
“Letting me peruse the contract for you is a smart move. With that, he planted a kiss on her forehead. “This is your reward.”
Blushing, Christina buried her face in his chest. “Hurry and help me read it.”
Nathaniel opened the file and scanned its contents. There was nothing wrong with the clauses, but he read it one more time just to be sure.
When he was done, he went online and looked for any information on the company. Christina poked her

head out of his embrace and joined him in reading them.
He tore his eyes away from the computer and gazed at Christina. “Everything in the contract looks fine. You can sign it without any worries.”
“That’s great! Now, I’ll be able to earn enough money to buy a new house in no time,” she exclaimed happily, her dark eyes twinkling with joy.
She had been worrying about finding a place for her mother to recuperate after she was discharged from the hospital.
