Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 606 The Only Heiress

When they had disembarked from the plane and walked out of the terminal, they spotted Jasper standing beside a black car, waiting for them.

Jasper immediately went up to them with all the enthusiasm in the world. He wanted to take Christina’s luggage from Lyle’s hand, only to stop short at the sharp look in the latter’s eyes.

Christina broke the tense atmosphere. “Why are you here?”

“Mr. Gibson had me come over to pick you up, Ms. Steele. He has already arranged the accommodations for you. There’s a storm at the cemetery, and that makes it difficult to relocate the grave. For that reason, he postponed the ceremony for tomorrow morning.”

Christina had no objections to that since her schedule was rather rushed. With a day to rest, she would have enough energy and strength to deal with all the tricky problems the next day.

“Thank you for coming all the way over. I’ve already booked a hotel, and it wouldn’t be wise for me and my father to have too much contact before tomorrow, Christina replied with a smile.

“Sure.” Christina watched as the man drove away.
