Chapter 362 A Call From Francis.

Christina hung up, feeling beyond relaxed.

She assigned the remaining tasks to Ginny, entrusting her with the responsibility of handling the subsequent arrangements.

“Can we head back now?” Nathaniel asked when they arrived at the hotel.

Christina nodded. “My work here is done, so it’s time to leave.”

As they stepped into the elevator, two guests with a considerable amount of luggage joined them. struggling to maneuver the trolley inside.

The elevator was quite spacious, but with the arrival of the newcomers and their luggage, it became packed.

Afraid that the others would bump into Christina, Nathaniel opened his arms wide to protect her.

Before the doors slid shut, two tall men hurried into the elevator, making it jampacked.

They were standing so close to each other that they could sense each other’s breath.

A subtle blend of floral and woody fragrances emanated from the bodyguard’s figure, intriguing Christina’s senses.

Knowing that he had no interest in women, she felt more at ease in his presence.

She lifted her gaze and locked eyes with him, only to be met with the enigmatic allure of his sunglasses and black mask. He looked really mysterious.

We’ve spent some time together, but I still haven’t seen Mr. Bodyguard’s real face. Won’t it be strange if I bump into him at the Hadley residence one day but fail to recognize him? I was initially weary of him and never got to observe him carefully.

Now, she finally got a chance to take a closer look and realized he resembled Nathaniel. Their scents were also similar, so she couldn’t help but wonder if it was a coincidence.

She took a look at the bodyguard’s blond hair. Nathaniel will never dye his hair this color, right?

With that thought in mind, Christina reached out discreetly to pull his mask away.

Before she could touch his mask, the bodyguard grabbed her hand.

Caught off guard, Christina couldn’t help but flash an awkward smile. “Mr. Bodyguard, I’m afraid I won’t be able to recognize you if we happen to meet again. Could I please take a look at you? I promise not to laugh, even if you’re ugly. Pretty please?” Her plea carried a soft, earnest tone.
