Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 251 Intensifying Public Opinion

Christina breathed a sigh of relief only after she hung up the phone.

“Was that your boyfriend?” asked Benjamin.

Uh… That was my husband.” Christina flushed, feeling a little shy.

She rarely mentioned Nathaniel to outsiders because he attracted too much attention. Besides, she did not want to

attract the attention of people with ulterior motives.

As if discovering an interesting fact, Benjamin said, “D”mn. I thought you were still underage. Turns out you’re

married.”

It was understandable that he saw her that way since she had fair skin and smiled in a way that charmed everyone.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that anyone would fall in love with her at first sight.

“The details of the next round of the competition will be announced tomorrow. You should rest early.” Christina put

down her empty cup and got up to leave.

Seeing that. Benjamin opened the door and gestured to the door. “Good night.”

“Good night.” Upon reaching her room, Christina stopped thinking about the protest.

They’ll leave when they’re tired. Everyone’s got to work, anyway. They can’t possibly starve themselves and hang

around the gate to protest.

Christina got into the bed and soon fell asleep.

At midnight, unified shouts from the outside traveled into the room. “Withdraw from the competition, Christina!

Withdraw!”

They shouted in unison, and their voices grew louder with each shout. Soon, everyone in the house was awakened.

Several designers rushed to Christina’s door and scolded, “You’re a jinx, Christina! Get out now!”

“Open up, Christina! Deal with your problem now!”

“How are we supposed to sleep with all this noise?”

The moment Christina opened the door, she was met with several pairs of eyes that were glaring at her as if they

wanted to gobble her up.

Nonetheless, there was nothing Christina could do about the protestors out there. It was not like she asked for this.

Standing in front of the crowd, Nancy threatened, “Get rid of those people now or withdraw from the competition.”

“That’s right. Your problem is affecting us!” Margaret uttered in an unpleasant tone while glaring at Christina.

The two women’s exaggerated words made the rest of the designers agree that Christina had to either withdraw

from the competition or get rid of the people out there.

Intensifying Public Opinion.

The criticisms made Christina feel suffocated, but she could not just ignore the matter. After all, she was. the cause

of all this.

“Let me check with the security guards.” Christina put on a coat and went downstairs.

As soon as she found the security guards on duty, she asked, “Why aren’t you guys chasing them away? The noise

is affecting the others.”

How are these people standing in the middle of the road for an entire day when it’s so cold? Are they being paid to

do

this?

Alas, the guard said exasperatedly. “We don’t have a choice. Everything outside of the mansion is public property.

There’s no use calling the police as long as they do nothing illegal in public areas.”

In fact, the security guards would have driven the crowd away instead of just looking at them if they had the

authority to do something about it.

Christina sighed, feeling helpless as she watched the group of people shout louder than before.

I guess I should give Nathaniel a call. He’s my husband, after all. Trivial matters like this should be resolved as long

as I ask for his help.

Hence, Christina turned around and approached the door. To her dismay, Margaret had roped in the other

designers to lock the door.

“Christina, you’re not getting in if you don’t deal with those people.”

“You jinx! You have no right to come in!”

Christina stared at the locked door in shock.

In the next second, fury bubbled in her heart. They’re too much! What gives them the right to lock me out? Even if

they wanted to do that, they should at least give me my phone.

“Open up! You can’t do this. Open up!” Christina fumed.

At that moment, she wanted nothing more than to be as strong as Hercules so she could smash the door

open.

Have these women lost their minds? They should give me my phone if they’re not letting me in!

The women inside the mansion smiled from ear to ear when they heard Christina’s panicked voice.

They were going to lock her outside in the cold for the entire night.

It’s her fault for being so aloof all the time. Tonight, we’re going to let her experience what it’s like to be ostracized.

Meanwhile, Benjamin was infuriated by their actions. He rushed downstairs and berated, “How could you do that to

Christina? Open the door now!”

Benjamin was the only person among them who stood on Christina’s side.

Of course, the women would not give up so easily when they had finally found a chance to bully Christina.

“Lock Benjamin in his room!” yelled someone. Immediately, the others began shoving Benjamin up the stairs

before he could arrive on the first floor.

“What are you crazy women trying to do? Let me go!”

With no one helping him, the women managed to force him upstairs with just a few pushes. They ignored.

everything he said as if they were zombies who lost their sense of rationality.

After shoving him into the room, Nancy grabbed a mop and slipped it through the door handle to lock him from the

outside.

“Have you women lost your minds? Open the door now!” Benjamin yelled at the top of his lungs while pounding on

the door. Even his eyes were bloodshot.

He could not be bothered about himself. All he was worried about was how cold Christina must be from being

outside in those thin pajamas.

I promised to be like a brother to her last night. And now, I can’t help her when she’s in trouble.

The women on the outside high-fived each other as if they were the victors. “Nicely done, girls!”

With that, Nancy brought the others downstairs. She could not be happier now that the two people she hated the

most were locked up.

“Come on. Let’s go to the kitchen and have a drink to celebrate this peaceful and wonderful night,” Margaret

suggested.

Hearing that, the rest headed toward the dining area. All of them had a sense of pride for being in the same boat.

Soon, the beers in the refrigerator were taken out and uncapped. With that, each of them held up a bottle. and

clinked them.

They exchanged gleeful glances. After all, they had formed an alliance after having eliminated a common

enemy.

While they were enjoying themselves, they did not notice the camera that was secretly capturing every moment in

the corner.

The cold night breeze blew incessantly outside, causing Christina’s fingers to feel stiff in just a short while. The worst

thing about all this was not that she was out in the cold in her pajamas-it was not having her phone with her.

Feeling helpless, she had no choice but to approach the security guards to borrow a phone.

The guards felt sorry for her when they saw her frozen face. However, three minutes ago, they had just received a

call from the director and were told that the director was live broadcasting the scene. They were not allowed to

lend her their phones for the sake of the show.

“I’m sorry. We’ll be fired if we lend it to you.”

“Sorry. This is being live broadcast, so we can’t lend it to you.”

Nonsense. This is all for the show again? This director doesn’t even care about my well-being.

The current temperature was almost sub-zero. Even though Christina was wearing fleece pajamas, it was still cold

without any heaters around.

Given no choice, Christina strode back to the door and eyed it coldly.

They’re causing such a ruckus. I’m sure Benjamin will learn
