Chapter 240 Changing Partners
That night, the designers saw a clip of the latest episode. With male stars and models joining the show, the view count soared.
The designers in the show also gained more followers, and Christina noticed the followers of her social media account exponentially growing.
If the clip is online, then Nathaniel must have seen it.
A wave of worry washed over Christina as she stared at her phone. She could already imagine the scowl on Nathaniel’s face once he saw the video.
After a moment of contemplation, she decided to be honest with him, so she made a video call to him.
The man picked up fairly quickly.
Christina noticed that he was still in his office, and the sky outside the room was dark. Stars dotted the sky, but nothing was as radiant as Nathaniel himself for Christina.
“Nathaniel, are you still working?”
Nathaniel’s heart skipped a beat when he heard her voice.
“Mhm. How are things on your side?” he asked.
Christina was confused by his calm demeanor, for he was usually upset if she interacted with Francis.
Could it be that he hasn’t seen the video?
With that thought in mind, confidence fled her. “Did you see the competition video? I’ll be partnering with Francis for the next round.”
“I saw. So, what do you want to tell me?” Nathaniel’s gaze darkened almost imperceptibly, but she could sense the murderous aura he exuded even through the screen.
