Chapter 12 New Memories

  • Julia stood rooted to the spot, utterly shocked.
  • Nathaniel instructed, “Sebastian, go upstairs and bring down one of my shirts for my mother so that she can take a good look at it!”
  • Sebastian quickly went upstairs to get the shirt upon hearing his words.
  • Julia and Xandra would have no choice but to believe once they saw it for themselves.
  • Sebastian quickly returned with a shirt and laid both shirts on the coffee table. Although there were some wrinkles on the shirt that Christina had worn, it was evident that it was Nathaniel's shirt when they saw that the right collars of both shirts were embroidered with the letter N in gold.
  • Nathaniel's shirts were custom-made by Irushean tailors. Each shirt had the letter N embroidered on the right collar.
  • Julia's face paled. She had no choice but to believe it with the truth lying before her eyes.
  • Her blood pressure rose again, and she almost fainted. Sebastian hurriedly approached her and supported her. “Mrs. Hadley, shall I send you back?”
  • Julia snorted coldly before letting Sebastian support her and leaving.
  • Xandra had no relation with the Hadley family to begin with. She was only acquainted with Julia, so she didn't have any reason to stay after the latter left.
  • Soon, the sound of a car engine could be heard from the front yard.
  • “The audience has left. There's no need to continue the show.” Christina jumped out of Nathaniel's embrace like a squirrel.
  • Nathaniel furrowed his brows.
  • Was I just a tool for her to use to anger them?
  • “Get over here, Christina,” he said in a low voice laced with annoyance.
  • Christina ignored him. They locked eyes for a moment before she quickly ran upstairs.
  • Upon entering the master bedroom, she changed into a nightgown.
  • Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and someone enveloped her in his embrace from behind.
  • “What are you doing? I'm changing!”
  • Christina was in the process of wearing her nightgown, so Nathaniel could see her bare waist and legs.
  • His Adam's apple bobbed, and his heartbeat and breathing accelerated.
  • “It's not as if I haven't seen it before.” Nathaniel chuckled.
  • He was dressed in a high-end suit. The black vest accentuated his waist, and his upright posture exuded a domineering aura.
  • Christina pushed him away in anger. “Don't you ever mention what happened that night!”
  • It was an accident to her, and she was determined not to let it affect her life.
  • However, she didn't expect Nathaniel to be her biggest obstacle.
  • Nathaniel held her chin and narrowed his eyes. “If I can't mention it, then I'll let you relive it. No, I will create new memories with you!”
  • Christina's eyes widened. She was lightly picked up and thrown on the bed.
  • Nathaniel pinned her hands above her head and leaned in to admire her gorgeous facial features.
  • She had a special scent. It was seductive and addicting.
  • “Are you insane? Let go of me!” If that night was an accident, then his forceful demeanor this night was deliberate.
  • Christina refused to let him have his way, but she was like a little rabbit who couldn't fight against the big bad wolf.
  • “If I let you go, will you behave?” Nathaniel arched his brow.
  • Christina was rendered speechless. Of course not!
  • For some reason, Nathaniel felt an inexplicable urge to dote on her as he looked into her watery eyes and at her rosy cheeks.
  • He leaned in and pressed his lips against hers.
