Chapter 290 I Do Not Have A Say

Nathaniel’s displeasure faded significantly as he looked at her innocent face. He wiped her hair using the silk handkerchief. Why did you attend a function like that?

After hearing what he said, Christina felt aggrieved. Her eyes reddened instantly. I didn’t turn her down because she’s your cousin. It’s not like I wanted to attend a party like that.
