Chapter 188 She Gets Jealous Too 


The atmosphere seemed harmonious under the dim warm light. 


Madison was dressed in an elegant gown with her gaze pinned on Nathaniel, who sat across from her. 






They rarely had dinners alone, so she was thankful to Sierra for purposely making such an arrangement. 


I must make good use of this opportunity. 


“Nathaniel, shall we have some wing?” Madison suggested. 


Placing his utensils down elegantly, Nathaniel responded, “As you wish.” 


Madison’s heart surged with joy, and she quickly got a waiter to serve them a bottle of wine. 


She had prepared a lot for their date that night. For example, she had picked a strong wine that could liven things up. 


Meanwhile, Nathaniel glanced at his phone screen to find that Sierra was now thirty minutes late. Hence, he did not think it was necessary for him to wait anymore. 


He wiped his lips with a napkin and rose to his feet. 


“Nathaniel, where are you going? The wine isn’t here yet,” said Madison in confusion. 


“You can have it while waiting for Aunt Sierra.” 


He then strode to the door and opened it to find Sierra exiting the other room. 


Immediately, his gaze darkened, for he had a bad feeling. 


Sensing he was about to leave, Sierra quickly put on a smile. “Oh, my darling nephew. Did you miss me?” 


Apart from his parents, Sierra was the only relative who kept him company all year round. 


His parents were always busy with work when he was younger. Thus, Sierra was the one who attended most of his parent–teacher conferences. 


Naturally, he still respected his aunt. 


“Yes,” answered Nathaniel robotically. 


Sierra smiled satisfactorily and brought him back to the private room. “Let’s continue eating. I’d like to chat with you.” 


The look of dejection on Madison’s face vanished the moment she saw Nathaniel return. 


After bringing him to his seat, Sierra poured him a glass of wine. 


Just like that, Christina was left alone in the room next door for one hour while the trio chatted happily. 


She wanted to go home, but she did not think it was polite to leave without informing the older woman. 


Besides, she did not stay idle since there was a waiter who kept bringing in new dishes. Right then, she accidentally ate a piece of pepper, which made her tear up from the spice. She felt better only after taking

several gulps of wine. 


After that, Christina tried calling Sierra, but the latter did not pick up. 


Don’t tell me Aunt Sierra forgot all about me and went home already? 


At that thought, Christina decided not to wait anymore. It was only when she had exited the room did she remember she had forgotten about her handbag. 


The wine was getting to her head, making her lose her sense of direction. 


Without realizing it, she opened the door to another room, only to meet three pairs of 


Silence hung in the air, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward. 


Christina’s eyes went wide instantly; she even sobered up a little.

All that traffic jam Aunt Sierra was talking about was just an excuse to stall for time. Her objective was to dump me here so she could bring Nathaniel and Madison together!
