Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 758 Ugly Side Revealed

Barnaby’s emergence gave Timothy a shock, but the latter’s expression turned icy soon after.

“Father, why don’t you head over to the lounge next door to rest? Let me attend to Old Mr. Stone.” Christina proposed, worried about her father’s health.

“I’ll leave it to you.” Timothy replied before wheeling himself toward the next room.

Barnaby shot Timothy a grim look when the latter left.

From the way he left without even bothering to greet Barnaby, it was clear how much he disliked the latter.

While gripping his umbrella, Barnaby walked up to Christina, his stern, black suit making him look more menacing.

“I’ve been told today is her funeral, Mrs. Hadley, so I’m here to give her a final sendoff.”

“Who have you come to say your farewells as?” Christina asked without mincing her words. “I heard that after she had passed on, not only did you refuse to make the necessary preparations, but you even spent a ton to suppress any news about her. Your actions have only proven one thing: you’re trying your hardest to sever all relations with Mrs. Lazuli. If that’s the case, why have you come to send her off? That’s just incredibly pretentious.”

The atmosphere grew awkward as Christina called Barnaby out on his act.
