Chapter 157 It Is Embarrassing To Know You

Christina dared not say that she knew Olivia as it was too humiliating.

“If she refuses to get to know you, you can’t change her mind easily. I think you should leave.”

Not wanting to waste time talking to her, Christina tumed to leave, but Olivia grabbed her arm.

Despite her slender build, she had enough strength to prevent Christina from leaving.

“Christina, are you still upset about what happened to Nathaniel last night?” she asked, almost on the verge of tears. “I know it was my fault. Can you please not leave me alone here?”

Christina had never met someone who could act as well as Olivia.

I’m leaving her alone? Why does she make me sound so evil?

“All right. Let’s leave together, then.” Christina gripped her hand tightly and led her out.

No matter how reluctant Olivia was, she had no reason to stay behind.

D”mn it! I still haven’t gotten to take a photo with Rence and Thomas! I don’t want to leave yet!

As soon as they exited the hotel, Christina shook Olivia’s hand off and asked, “Does Mrs. Hadley know you’re doing this?”

Olivia had wanted to continue her pretense but was forced to drop the act when faced with Christina’s questioning.

Folding her arms across her chest, she directed an icy glare in Christina’s direction. “Aunt Julia adores. me. I bet you’re nothing compared to me in her eyes.

Aunt Julia and Christina’s relationship is strained, to say the least. Christina and Nathaniel are married, but Aunt – Julia still forbids Christina from calling her “Mom.” She clearly hates her.

Olivia was well-behaved in the presence of Julia, but in reality, she spent a lot of money and couldn’t keep relying on the latter for financial support.

Edward was the owner of a film company, so she ended up currying favor with him.

Words eluded Christina as she looked at Olivia’s coy manner. “You’d better behave yourself.”

With that, she spun on her heels and left.

It’s unfortunate that a young woman like Olivia is unwilling to work hard and instead looks for shortcuts. She doesn’t realize that her actions could lead to the destruction of her life if she isn’t careful enough.

It was evening when Christina finally returned to Scenic Garden Manor.

She walked into the manor to discover that there was a new couch in the living room. Nathaniel was lounging on it, reading a document on his tablet. He placed his tablet aside when he spotted her.

“Has the wedding ended?” he asked.

Christina hummed in affirmation but didn’t tell him what transpired earlier.

Her phone rang. It was a call from Julia.

Christina had a bad feeling. She was about to answer the call when Nathaniel took her phone from her and put the call on loudspeaker.

“Mrs. Hadley, is there anything I can do for you?”

Julia’s angry voice pierced through the phone as she confronted Christina, “How could you spend so much money? You bought thirty million worth of branded goods using my card!” Her bank account had just alerted her about the extravagant purchase made with her supplementary card.
