Seizing the chance when Xenia was momentarily distacted, the security guard standing to one side. swooped her up in his arms and brought her down. After that, Xenia fainted from the shock and had to be sent to the hospital.

More than anything, the commotion left others heartbroken.

Christina returned to the sewing room, feeling terrible. She sent the offer letter to Xenia’s phone, hoping the unpleasant incident would merely be a minor hiccup that did not affect her future.

Just then, Anna walked in with a cup of latte. “Drink this. It’ll help to calm you down.”

Forcing a smile, Christina held the warm cup to her lips and took a sip.

Her eyes were slightly lowered, seemingly lost in thought.

Anna patted her shoulder gently and continued to comfort her. “You’re just too kind. What happened isn’t your fault at all.”

Actually, I was also guilty of harboring prejudice toward Christina in the beginning. Through our interactions. however, my admiration for this young yet responsible lady gradually grew. Others say she climbed the ladder by riding on someone’s coattails, but she genuinely has what it takes. Xenia’s hubris is to blame for this incident.

Christina finally snapped out of her daze and said calmly, “I’m fine. Let’s get back to work.”

After the scandal blew over, Christina insisted on returning Henrietta her money and compensated the company for the cost of the materials for the dress out of her own pocket.

Henrietta’s attitude toward her shifted considerably upon learning that she had not copied another’s. work and even suggested engaging her again in the future.

Christina did not refuse, and the two exchanged contact information.

Although Gina had planned to arrange for another assistant for Christina, the latter declined the offer.

With all the work falling onto Anna and her, they were busy practically day and night in the following days. Hence, Christina took the opportunity to sleep in at Scenic Garden Manor when it was finally the

weekend.

After waking up, she changed into a casual outfit and went for a stroll in the front courtyard after

breakfast.

Since it was the start of winter, the winds were stronger and faster.

While sitting on a wooden bench and enjoying the breeze, she took out her phone and took a selfie. Then, she sent it to someone.

A second later, Nathaniel received the message on his phone.

He was in a conference room, and the atmosphere was serious as the director of the market development department was giving a report.

Christina was wearing a white sweater paired with a short red skirt. She had on nude-colored stockings. over her long, fair legs, and her bare face appeared radiant. Her lips were curved into a slight smile, and there was a tender look in her beautiful eyes. She looked absolutely charming.

He could not help smiling at the sight of such a sweet photo, and he tapped on the photo to save it to his phone before replying with a message.

Meanwhile, the director had finished giving his report and was staring at his CEO in bewilderment.

The other executives also looked toward the head of the table in shock, hardly daring to breathe. They had never seen Nathaniel smile in a meeting or get distracted by his phone.

As for Sebastian, he did not show any surprise at the scene. If that expression appears on his face, it can only mean he’s chatting with Mrs. Hadley.

“Mr. Hadley, that’s the end of my report. Is there anything you think needs to be improved?” the director enquired softly.

Nathaniel looked up, his gaze icy. “Start from the top again.”

“Sure.” The director broke into a cold sweat as he began his hour-long report a second time.

Upon receiving his message, Christina read it out under her breath. “The skirt is too short. You’re not allowed to wear it out of the room next time.”

She studied her skirt carefully. How is this too short? The hem falls right to my knees. It’s the perfect length for a short skirt! I can sense his jealousy even on this side of the screen.

Just as she was about to go back into the house, a black Lincoln drove up.

Immediately recognizing the car plate number, Raymond had the guard at the gate let the vehicle. through.

The person who got out of the car was Hannah. “Ms. Christina, Mrs. Hadley would like to invite you to the Hadley residence.”

Even though she was a housekeeper, she spoke in a steady tone. After serving Julia for many years, she had honed an aura that was neither obsequious nor supercilious.

Christina’s heart lurched when she heard that Julia wanted to meet with her. However, since Julia had made the request and even sent a car to pick her up, she had no reason to decline.

As Christina stood up, Hannah scrutinized her outfit’s a young and innocent style. However, it’s unsuitable for a meeting with the in-laws, especially someone like Mrs. Hadley, who is a stickler for etiquette.

Hence, she said to Christina, “Please change into another outfit. I’ll wait for you here.”

Looking at her casual clothes, Christina thought it was not quite suitable indeed. She smiled and said, “In that case, please wait for a moment.”

With that, she turned and went upstairs. After changing into a beige suit, she tied back her long hair and added a rhinestone-encrusted hair clip in the shape of a bow on the right side.

Then, she went downstairs, got into the Lincoln, and returned to the Hadley residence with Hannah.
