Chapter 251 Intensifying Public Opinion
Christina breathed a sigh of relief only after she hung up the phone.
“Was that your boyfriend?” asked Benjamin.
Uh… That was my husband.” Christina flushed, feeling a little shy.
She rarely mentioned Nathaniel to outsiders because he attracted too much attention. Besides, she did not want to attract the attention of people with ulterior motives.
As if discovering an interesting fact, Benjamin said, “D”mn. I thought you were still underage. Turns out you’re married.”
It was understandable that he saw her that way since she had fair skin and smiled in a way that charmed everyone. It would not be an exaggeration to say that anyone would fall in love with her at first sight.
“The details of the next round of the competition will be announced tomorrow. You should rest early.” Christina put down her empty cup and got up to leave.
Seeing that. Benjamin opened the door and gestured to the door. “Good night.”
“Good night.” Upon reaching her room, Christina stopped thinking about the protest.
They’ll leave when they’re tired. Everyone’s got to work, anyway. They can’t possibly starve themselves and hang around the gate to protest.
Christina got into the bed and soon fell asleep.
At midnight, unified shouts from the outside traveled into the room. “Withdraw from the competition, Christina! Withdraw!”
They shouted in unison, and their voices grew louder with each shout. Soon, everyone in the house was awakened.
Several designers rushed to Christina’s door and scolded, “You’re a jinx, Christina! Get out now!”
“Open up, Christina! Deal with your problem now!”
“How are we supposed to sleep with all this noise?”
The moment Christina opened the door, she was met with several pairs of eyes that were glaring at her as if they wanted to gobble her up.
Nonetheless, there was nothing Christina could do about the protestors out there. It was not like she asked for this.
