Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 124 A Unique Design

After getting into the car, Christina felt a little uneasy when she saw Julia sitting in the back seat. “I think I

should ride shotgun.”

Sebastian reached his arm out and blocked her path. “That’s my spot, Ms. Christina. It’s really spacious.

in the back, so you won’t feel cramped at all.”

Realizing that she had nothing to say in retaliation, Christina had no choice but to give up on the front

seat. “All right, then.”

After making sure that everyone was seated, the driver started the car and drove off.

The atmosphere in the back of the car was ridiculously tense, and the silence felt deafening. It was

already tense with Nathaniel around, but Julia’s presence took things to the next level.

Christina was so uptight that she didn’t even dare breathe out loud as she sat there with her palms on

her knees.

As the car slowly cruised down the road, Christina couldn’t help but feel as though the driver was slowing

down on purpose.

Julia felt pressure on her shoulder when the car pulled up at a traffic light. She turned her head in

confusion, only to see Christina resting her head on her shoulder.

What? Even Nathaniel has never been this close to me! Who does she think she is? How dare she rest

her head on my shoulder?

Suppressing her rage, Julia was about to move Christina’s head away, but Nathaniel grabbed her by the

wrist. “She didn’t get enough sleep the past few days in order to make you that dress,” he said with at

resentful look in his eyes.

Julia shot him a displeased glare as she put her hand down, but her face suddenly turned solemn.

As much as she disliked Christina, Julia decided to let it go since Christina had helped her.

The car soon arrived at the Hadley residence.

Nathaniel carefully pulled Christina into his arms before Julia got out of the car.

Christina frowned slightly in surprise and nuzzled against his chest. As though she had just found a new

comfortable spot, Christina continued sleeping soundly.

“Get some rest,” Nathaniel said and rolled up the car window.

Julia’s eyes narrowed as she watched the car drive off

Nathaniel always had an icy-cold expression, but I saw a hint of warmth on his face just now. It’s almost

as though he’s becoming more and more human. Is Christina the one who changed him?

As the rays of the morning sun shone into the bedroom, Christina slowly opened her eyes. She sat bolt

upright when she recognized the familiar bedroom around her.

Wait a minute… Did I fall asleep on the way home last night? If I recall correctly, I rested my head on

Mrs. Hadley’s shoulder… Oh, no! I can’t believe I did something that rude to Mrs. Hadley! She must hate

me even more

now! It looks like I’m going to have a lot of trouble maintaining a decent relationship with her…

With that in mind, Christina hopped off the bed, got changed, and ran down the stairs.

To her surprise, Nathaniel had yet to leave the house at that hour. Instead, he was reading the news on

his tablet while having breakfast at the dining table.

Is he waiting for me?

“Don’t you have to go to work?” Christina asked curiously while making her way over.

The look in Nathaniel’s eyes was still cold as he replied, “I was waiting for you so we could head over

together.”

Christina let out a soft chuckle when she heard that. After all, Nathaniel hardly ever waited for anyone. It

was usually others who waited for him instead.

The two of them left the house after having breakfast

After returning to the office, Christina got a call from Francis when she had only sat down for a bit.

“I’ll pick you up outside your office building in five minutes,” he said and hung up the phone before

Christina could even respond.

Christina had spent time doing some research after promising him to help Coco with her appearance, so

all she needed to do was inform Gina before leaving the office.

A black MPV was parked outside the office building. The door only opened when Christina

got

closer

to it.

Coco gave Christina a big hug the moment she entered the car. “Yay! I’m so glad I get to work with you

again!”

Coco had been so busy filming for her new show that they barely had any time to meet up. Being ant

extroverted person, Coco kept telling Christina about the interesting incidents she encountered while

filming throughout the entire drive.

Upon arriving on set, Coco went on to get her makeup done while Christina followed the staff to the

dressing room.

She saw Francis sitting on a couch inside the moment she opened the door. He was wearing a simplistic

black dress shirt with a denim jacket. The retro-looking pendant dangling from his neck helped add some

more flair to his overall outfit.

Wow… Those in the entertainment industry sure have great fashion sense!

Francis’ lips curled into a smile when he saw Christina come in. “You’re free to mix and match the clothes

here however you like. All you have to do is create five outfits in total. That should be a piece of cake for

you, right?”

It wasn’t until then that Christina realized the clothes on the shelf were the latest designs of the season.

Those clothes could easily cost up to millions.

Since Coco’s style was that of a pretty and cute princess, Christina had to focus on clothes that looked

cute when putting the outfits together.

“You know, you wouldn’t have to buy this many clothes if you had just let me preview them beforehand,”

Christina said.

“What, are you feeling sorry about how much I’ve spent?” Francis asked with a huge grin.

Ugh… Can’t he just talk to me normally? Why did he have to make it sound so flirty?

Christina rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t get the wrong idea. I was simply expressing my opinion from a

businessperson’s point of view.”

It was her dream to someday own a studio for her own brand and develop it little by little. In order to do

that, she needed to gain more experience and knowledge.

Amused by Christina’s prideful behavior, Francis leaned lazily on his side and watched her get down to

business.

Hmm… She looks kind of cute when she’s all serious about her work.

Christina became even more focused as the dressing room fell into silence.

In order to create a completely unique outfit, she tried putting together elements that did not stand out at

first glance. It wasn’t long before she came up with outfits that she was satisfied with.

All that was left to do was to have Coco try them on and see how she looked. With that in mind, she

turned around to seek Francis’ opinion on the outfits, only to realize he was standing right behind her.

Because he was standing really close to her, his handsome face was merely inches away from her

shoulder. Surprisingly, the faint scent of tobacco on his clothes mixed with his perfume didn’t smell that

bad.

Feeling satisfied with her outfit combinations, Francis reached out and tied the ribbon on one of the

outfits into the shape of a bow. “There, that outfit is now perfect!”

Christina nodded in response. “Agreed,” she said with a smile that revealed her perfect pearly whites and

highlighted her rosy lips.

Charmed by Christina’s beauty, Francis inched closer to her and whispered seductively into her ear, “We

really make a perfect pair.”
