Chapter 145 Resentment

It was late when Christina came out of the company. She spotted a familiar car parked nearby the entrance once she exited the building.

Recognizing Nathaniel’s car, she walked over to it.

She opened the door and got into the car.

Sebastian started the engine and drove back to Scenic Garden Manor.

In the car, the sparkling chandelier shone down on them, casting a beautiful glow. Nathaniel’s woody scent filled the car, creating a cozy atmosphere.

“Is Zachary so demanding on his employees? Why do you get off work late every day?” Nathaniel asked icily.

Christina behaved like an employee who was being lectured. Then, she replied meekly, “No. I was the one who chose to work overtime. My decision has nothing to do with anyone else.”

She was afraid that Nathaniel would file a complaint with Zachary out of anger to cut down her

Christina could sense the tension in the air.

She pulled out her phone and started tapping on the screen quietly, ignoring Nathaniel completely.

Sebastian noticed their interaction through the rearview mirror and promptly broke into cold sweat.

Even if she doesn’t feel like talking, she could at least sit there quietly and show some respect. It’s unacceptable for her to be on her phone while ignoring Mr. Hadley.
