Chapter 47 I Misplaced My Phone

hen Nathaniel and Christina’s words contrasted, the problem immediately came to light.

Nathaniel was a smart man, so he perceived the issue right away. “Where’s your phone?”

He had been calling her for the entire night and texting her incessantly, but she did not answer his calls or reply to his messages.

Thinking that she was still mad, he was contemplating whether to knock on her door to seek her out when he heard her terrified cry.

Christina hung her head like a child who had done something wrong. “I misplaced my phone.”

A mixture of complex emotions brewed in Nathaniel’s eyes. “You waited at the restaurant for the whole night?”

Saying nothing, Christina kept her head lowered.

She felt utterly stupid for waiting for him at the restaurant.

At her silence, Nathaniel’s muted fury dissipated. He pinned his eyes on her pitiful face, his voice growing tender. “Why didn’t you give me a call?”

“I was afraid I’d disrupt your work.”

I thought he would arrive after a while. I didn’t expect such an incident to transpire.

Unlocking his phone, Nathaniel showed her a message that came from her number. It read: I’m not going to have dinner with you. I don’t like you either, so stop pestering me.

Nonetheless, it was clear as day that she wasn’t the one who sent such a harsh and sarcasm-filled message.

All of a sudden, Christina remembered she bumped into Emilia when she made a trip back to the Steele residence to pack her clothes.

Realization struck her like a bombshell at that moment.

If Nathaniel hadn’t come to my rescue today, considering the situation at that time… the consequences would’ve been devastating!

Rage blazed in her eyes. I’ll definitely have her pay for this severalfold!
