Chapter 306 Blooming Red Flower

Hearing the commotion, Raymond immediately rushed into the room with the housekeepers.

“Mrs. Hadley, what’s wrong?”

Christina’s face was wet with tears. “I need to go to the hospital… My grandmother is dying!”

It was as if a huge boulder was weighing down on her heart, suffocating her.

“I… I’ll call Mr. Hadley now. Raymond took out his phone nervously, wanting to ask Nathaniel for

instructions.

“Do you not perceive the gravity of the situation? Why are you still thinking of calling Nathaniel? Does that mean I can’t leave without his approval?” Christina was bent out of shape.

Her sparkly eyes had lost their brightness and were currently filled with rage.

Raymond was troubled. They were working for Nathaniel, so they dared not go against his words. Christina snatched the phone over and dialed Nathaniel’s number. However, nobody answered the call. Meanwhile, Nathaniel was in his office. It had been almost a week since he last talked to Christina. The thought of her adorable face inevitably swayed his resolution.

At the end of the day, he still needed to deal with the issue no matter what.

All of a sudden, his phone pinged, and a piece of trending news popped up on the screen.

Pausing for a moment, he clicked into Twitter. What he saw made his blood run cold.

Francis had posted a picture of himself hugging a woman on his official Twitter account with a caption that read: Please come to my side. No matter what happens. I’ll keep you protected.

That post of his caused chaos in an instant, and in less than a day, the number of views had hit tens of millions.

The netizens erupted into a heated discussion upon finding out that their prince charming had gotten a girlfriend, and they couldn’t stop guessing the identity of the lucky woman.

The reporters naturally wanted to take advantage of the trending topic. They tried looking for any information in the photo regarding the woman’s identity but to no avail.

Francis used his body to cover the woman’s face in the photo, and only her petite figure could be seen.

Nevertheless, that photo looked familiar to Nathaniel.
