Chapter 189 Do Not Visit Without A Reason

Christina paused whatever she was doing immediately. Ever since the contract was signed and a large sum was invested into the Steele family’s company by Nathaniel, Gideon never came looking for her once.

Right then, she had a hunch that Gideon was up to something.

Afraid Gideon might cause trouble at the office like Miranda, she said, Hold on. I’ll head down.

She quickly hung up the phone and took the elevator to go downstairs.

Even from afar, she already saw Gideon holding a box of custard tarts. Could he be concerned about me and Mom because he’s gotten older?

She approached him and greeted softly, Dad.

A grin formed on Gideon’s face. Here you go. Your custard tarts.

Christina took the tarts that were still warm. They seemed to warm her heart, too.

Didn’t you say you’d bring Mr. Hadley back for a meal? Why haven’t you been home for so long?asked Gideon with concern.

He stared at her with a crafty look in his eyes.

Alas, Christina was too focused on relishing the custard tart that she did not notice it. He’s busy these days. Maybe he’ll be free tonight.

This girl’s so easy to trick. Secretly delighted, Gideon asked with a chuckle, Can you invite him for dinner at Laguna tonight?

Seeing the genuine look in his eyes, Christina said, Okay.

With that, she returned to the company with the custard tarts.

After taking a few steps, she turned around to glance at Gideon, wondering if her father, who had a poor reputation, was still worth trusting.

Maybe I’ll find out after tonight.

That night, Gideon booked a private room and ordered plenty of delicious food that filled the entire table.

Gideon did not want to be too stingy in treating Nathaniel to a meal. After all, he needed to rely on the latter in the future to live a comfortable life.
