Marrying the Ugly Heir for Truth and Wealth

Chapter 98 Wake Up Darling

Christina could finally heave a sigh of relief when the floor clicked shut behind her. Madison is insistent

on making things difficult for me. How annoying.

She whipped her phone out to call Nathaniel. The call was answered after a few rings.

“Do you miss me?” His charming voice rang out from the other end.

“Of course I do. Can you come over?” she asked coyly

Nathaniel’s mood was lifted when he heard her soft voice. “I have nowhere to sleep if I arrive there this

late at night.”

Christina was speechless. “There are dozens of rooms in the Hadley residence. Why can’t you find a

place to sleep?” He could even change rooms every hour, and there would still be rooms left.

untouched.

A half-smile nudged Nathaniel’s lips as he stood up from his chair, gesturing for Sebastian to prepare

his car. However, he didn’t play along with Christina and responded, “I can’t fall asleep in other rooms.”

Christina sounded like she was about to burst out in fury.

Biting her lip, she tamped down her anger as she needed his help. “Can you share a room with me?

But you’ll have to leave early in the morning.”

“Since you want that, I’ll come over to keep you company now,” Nathaniel told her. He was already.

walking into the elevator as he said that.

Christina’s goal was something else entirely. “Before coming here, you need to help me out with Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

something.”

“What is it?” Nathaniel didn’t make things difficult for her.

Christina talked to him briefly before ending the call.

Meanwhile, Madison had been ingratiating herself to Julia in the living room, and it seemed to be

working as Julia was looking pleased.

Her phone rang at the wrong time, but she answered it nonetheless.

“Mr. Hadley has an urgent document that he needs tomorrow morning. Can you come back and work

overtime now?” Sebastian asked.

Nathaniel was always Madison’s priority, so she agreed readily. “Of course. I’ll head back now. Send

the details to my email.”

After the call ended, Madison shot the design studio upstairs a resentful look before she bade goodbye

to Julia.

Not long after Madison left, a black Maybach drove into the residence.

Helen considered the odds of Nathaniel showing up twice within three days to be lower than winning

the lottery.

She went out to welcome him. “Mr. Hadley, are you Back for the night or just here to inspect a nearby

project?

Nathaniel’s expression remained unfazed as he let out a soft grunt in acknowledgment.

He was usually indifferent, so the housekeeper was used to it.

Julia exchanged a look with him before parting her lips to say, “Rest early.”

Nathaniel gave another grunt in affirmation but looked calmer than before.

He knew his mother would suspect him as he kept showing up at home..

That was why he stayed in the living room, reading documents on his tablet until late at night. He then.

instructed the kitchen to prepare supper for him.

The chef left for the day after finishing preparing Nathaniel’s supper, leaving the Hadley residence

shrouded in a late-night silence, filled with an air of mystery.

Finally, Nathaniel felt sleepy and placed his tablet down. Instead of heading upstairs, he went to the

room allocated to “Ms. Ada.”

Shortly after, a slender figure made her way into the room.

Christina entered the room quietly and furtively as if she were a thief. She quickly drew the curtains

shut and locked the door before finally removing her mask.

Her cheeks were flushed as she winked at him cheekily. “I’m glad that you managed to make her

leave.”

Otherwise, Madison would still be here, trying to nitpick on her.

Nathaniel’s chest puffed up proudly. “I’ve brought supper. Come, let’s eat.”

They huddled together side by side. Christina was starving as she didn’t eat dinner after Madison

showed up.

The chef had prepared a bowl of beef noodles. It was generous portion but could only feed one.

A few bites later, the bowl of noodles was devoured by them both. Nathaniel had picked up the last

slice of beef when he noticed that she was staring at him greedily. “Are you starving?”

Christina bobbed her head vigorously. “Yeah!”

“Here you go.”

Nathaniel clamped a hand behind her head and pulled her closer to him to feed her the slice of beef.

“Yummy!” Christina’s eyes lit up in delight as she bearned with happiness, like a sunflower basking in

the nourishing sunlight.

“Now that you’re full, it’s time for bed.”

With that, Nathaniel scooped Christina off her feet and placed her on the bed.

“We’ve just finished the noodles. Shouldn’t we take a break?” Christina whined.

“It’s all right,” came Nathaniel’s reply. He buried his face into her nape and took a deep sniff of her

alluring scent.

He believed that a conducive atmosphere would aid him in sleeping.

Christina stared ahead as her heart leaped to her throat. She was afraid the door would open anytime,

and someone would catch them in the act.

“Wake up early tomorrow so Mrs. Hadley won’t find out that you’re here,” she reminded him. worriedly.

Nathaniel was about to fall asleep, but her abrupt reminder woke him up. He opened his falling onto her

plump and pink lips.

eyes, his

gaze

Suddenly, he reached out to brush her fringe aside before inching closer to her. His gaze was as

captivating as ever as he rasped out, “Okay.”

Parting his lips, he brushed them across Christina’s casually, causing a zing to travel across their

bodies.

Christina felt her hair standing on its ends as though she had been electrified. When Nathaniel’s

breath. entered her lungs, she let her guard down and relaxed,

A long while later, she gradually fell into a deep slumber. Perhaps she was too tired, or the kiss had

gone on for too long.

The following day, it was still dawn when the alarm rang.

Christina rubbed her eyes and woke up to find Nathaniel’s handsome face next to hers. His prominent

nose cast a shadow on his cheekbones, and his lips were slightly parted. The collar of his shirt was

slightly open, revealing his sexy collarbones.

Even when he was asleep, he looked especially charming and elegant.

Christina couldn’t help but gape at him.

When the alarm rang for the second time, she snapped out of her reverie and shook his shoulders.

“Wake up. It’s time for you to leave.”

Nathaniel was sleeping soundly, so his expression turned grim as he was rudely awakened. His

displeasure was evident, giving the impression that a thunderstorm was imminent.

Christina was aware of Nathaniel’s morning grumpiness, but it was already eight o’clock. The

housekeeper had already started her work, so if Nathaniel stayed in her room any longer, they would

likely be caught soon.

After staring ahead blankly for a few seconds, Nathaniel closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

Christina felt both exasperated and helpless. Look at the time! I can’t believe he can go back to sleep.

He promised me to leave early in the morning last night, didn’t he? I knew he was lying! Hmph!

Without warning, someone knocked on the door.

Upon hearing that, Christina nearly leaped onto the ceiling to conceal herself. Taking a deep breath,

she whispered in his ear coyly, “Darling, can you please wake up now?”
