Chapter 94 Why Did You Come

The wind was whistling through the window late at night, making it hard for Christina to have a good sleep. Suddenly, she heard a series of squeaky noises in the pitch-dark room and tensed up.

Is Mrs. Hadley trying to remove my mask when I’m sleeping? I bet no one else will do that. But based on my understanding of Mrs. Hadley, it’s possible. After all, there’s nothing she doesn’t dare to do.

Subsequently, Christina heard footsteps approaching as an intimidating aura enveloped the room.

She shuddered and became wide awake when a warm palm landed on her slender waist.

She widened her eyes in an instant and saw Nathaniel’s cold yet handsome face under the faint silver lighting. He was like a monster lurking in the dark, appearing out of nowhere. “Are you asleep?”

Christina broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing that. You jolted me awake!

She quickly recollected herself, got down from her bed like a nocturnal hamster, and checked if the door was locked.

As soon as she confirmed the lock was secured, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Why did you come here?”

Nathaniel pinned his eyes on her startled face and thought she looked quite cute. “I’m just dropping by since I’m heading somewhere nearby to do a recce tomorrow.”

Christina narrowed her eyes in suspicion. Even if this place is near the site he plans to inspect, it’s unlikely he will come all the way here for that one reason alone.

Nathaniel proceeded to unbutton his jacket, revealing his toned chest muscles underneath the shirt. Then, he placed his hand on his belt.

“Why are you removing your clothes?” Christina covered her eyes as her face turned crimson red.

“I’m going to sleep.”

At that, he swept her off her feet in one swift motion and lay her down on the bed, tucking her in his arms as though she was his most desirable pillow for a good night’s sleep.

He tilted his head sideways and leaned against her forehead, indulging in her body scent.

He could always get an indescribable sense of peace and tranquility from Christina, and that comfort received could never be appeased by words.
