Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 482 Why Are You Avoiding Me

“Nathaniel?” Anya was surprised to see the man present, as that meant she wouldn’t be able to enter and search for the flash drive.

Nathaniel remained composed and cold, his eyes sparkling with a concealed intensity. He reached out and drew Christina closer to him. “Why did you come back so late?”

His tone carried a hint of complaint, and upon detecting a faint smell of alcohol, he furrowed his brows.

The woman’s face was flushed, and her eyes were glimmering with tears. After all, it was customary to share a meal and enjoy a few drinks with colleagues.

Why does he look so displeased, as if I have committed a mistake?

Anya wanted to follow them inside, but Nathaniel casually closed the door in her face.

As the door slammed shut, she was left standing outside, her frustration mounting.

She couldn’t wait any longer. If she failed to find the flash drive, she would be in danger once Christina returned to Hallsbay.

As Anya walked away, she called Madison. “What’s going on? Christina was away for so long, so why haven’t you managed to snag Nathaniel yet?”

With Nathaniel around, it was difficult to go after Christina.

Madison had been feeling despondent ever since she dropped off Nathaniel at Scenic Garden Manor as he had been ignoring her calls.

Moreover, their collaboration with Taggart Group was not renewed when the contract expired.

Anya never expected Madison to be so incompetent. If she had known, she would have just found a random woman to get close to Nathaniel and obtain some intimate photos.

“We’re at the resort. Hurry over here, and find a way to keep him occupied.”

Madison’s hope ignited once again. “Quick, give me the address.”
