Chapter 119 Will Not Do You Any Good
Nathaniel studied the document carefully in the study before penning his signature and placing the document on the table. Instead of leaving after taking the document. Madison stared at him, looking hesitant to speak.
Nathaniel cast her an indifferent glance. “Is there something else?”
Christina bit her hp but did not show any excessive expressions “Mr. Hadley, are you sending me abroad because of Christina?”
She had just received a notice from the HR department that she would be in charge of a project. abroad. It would take at least two months or more.
In truth, she realized Nathaniel had been more indifferent to her ever since she exposed that Christina was Ada to Julia.
The feeling was as painful as someone stabbing her heart.
Nathamel propped his chin up with his hand, his face slightly facing downward, which prevented the light from reaching his eyes Madison dared not look straight into those dark eyes.
“Are you suggesting I’m bringing my private matters into work” His tone sounded icy and
domineering
Madison felt a chill run down her spine. “Of course not I just think you’ve been distancing yourself from me on purpose. Is it because of Ada’s identity didn’t mean it.”
Her fists were balled without her realizing it. At the same time, she felt a wave of uneasiness, for she had no idea what was about to happen next.
As Nathaniel lifted his gaze, his eyes lit up under the lights, making him look like a wolf lurking in the bushes Targeting her won’t do you any good. If you don’t want to stay in Hadley Corporation, you
can leave anytime”
Madison felt aggrieved, but she did not dare to speak honestly. After all, she knew well that Nathaniel was not giving her a warning. Rather, it was a final chance.
I’ve been by Nathaniel’s side for so many years, and I’ve ever done a lot for him. How is it that I’m not better than Christina who only appeared in his life for a few months?
Madison could not admit defeat, but she still went against her heart. “N-No… I respect Mrs. Hadley with all my heart. I accept your arrangements and will do my best to complete it smoothly.”
Nathaniel hummed icily in acknowledgement.
“That’s all. I’ll get going first.” With that, Madison picked up the document and exited the study.
When Madison met Christina’s gaze at the staircase, she badly wanted to tear her apart.
Why is it that she gets to stay by Nathaniel’s side every day while I’m sent to another country because of a trivial
matter?
Even so, Madison knew it was not the right time to go against Christina. She recollected herself and greeted, “Hello, Mrs. Hadley.”

Christina caught the look of fury that flashed past Madison’s eyes. Why bother pretending to be friendly when she clearly doesn’t like me? Just exactly how scheming is this woman that she can go to such an extent?
Christina simply flashed Madison a smile before heading upstairs.
A hostile aura still lingered in the study when Christina entered. Nathaniel was looking through some documents which seemed never-ending.
“It’s late. Aren’t you going to get some rest?” she asked. He should be tired from working hard every day. Even robots get tired, too.
Nathaniel embraced her, his gaze still glued to the documents. “I’ll be done in a while.”
Unable to convince him otherwise, Christina decided to stay in his arms and study the documents with him. However, the dense text was long and boring, so it did not take long for her to fall asleep.
What they did not know was that a camera was secretly capturing everything and displaying it on another computer.
Julia was infuriated when she saw the lovey-dovey scene on the screen.
This b*tch is a tricky one. No wonder Nathaniel keeps falling harder for her. She can really flirt!
“I’ll never let Nathaniel be with a woman who’s full of schemes!”
Julia slammed the laptop shut.
Helen, on the other hand, could only watch Julia fume in silence. She had no idea how to console her.
After all, it was Nathaniel who had pulled Christina into his embrace. Christina had only advised him. to rest early. Helen did not think it was an evil trick.
“Mrs. Hadley, if Mr. Hadley finds out we fixed a camera there, he’ll definitely be mad. Should we do it another way?” Helen suggested softly.
The consequences would be dire if Nathaniel found out they had been spying on him in the study.
Julia pounded the table and hissed, “This is my plan, and there won’t be any changes to it.”
Christina never would’ve managed to hide her identity if Nathaniel did not help her to lie to me. So, why can’t I return the favor by installing a hidden camera? Since I was played by Christina. I’m going to separate the two of
them.
Helen thought Julia was becoming rather extreme, but she did not dare to say much as a mere servant.
The next day, Christina saw Renee sitting in her office by the time she arrived.
There was a mask and a pair of sungla**es on the table, and the woman was dressed in a set of casual clothes. Christina figured Renee was keeping a low profile to avoid the reporters.
“Christina, you’re finally here. How’s the design drawing?” asked Renee with concern.
“I’ve just started drafting it, so it won’t be done so soon. Let’s take your measurements today,” Christina answered with a smile.
Under normal circumstances, a design drawing would usually take a week to be completed. After taking Renee’s measurements, Christina poured her a gla** of water.
Having answered a phone call, Renee said to Christina exasperatedly. “My husband can’t make it today. Can you come to my house to take his measurements? You know he’s a celebrity, too. It’s quite inconvenient for us to move around.”
Christina could understand, so she answered, “Okay.
She informed Gina about it before leaving the company with Rence.
Taysley Prime was one of the high-end mansions that cost tens of millions per square meter and had strict security.
Renee unlocked the door with her fingerprint and invited Christina into the house.
The interior was spotless with sunlight shining in. Even the air smelled fresh, too. Not only that, but the furnishings in every inch of the house seemed costly.
“My husband is probably still sleeping. Please make yourself comfortable while I go get him.” Rence turned around and headed upstairs.
Christina sat down at a random spot. “Okay.”
Just like that, she was left alone in the huge living room, which made her feel uneasy. Fortunately, she soon heard footsteps approaching.
She lifted her gaze, only to find a man with slender legs dressed in a white shirt and a black suit. His lean shoulders gave him a clean and neat look.
Both of them were taken aback when they finally registered each other’s faces.
“Francis? You’re Renee’s husband?” asked Christina in shock.
Francis walked over. She looks cute with her eyes widened like that. “You’re the designer she hired?”
“Yes.” Christina nodded.
A glint flashed past Francis’ eyes and a smirk appeared on his lips when he said, “You’re here to take my measurements, aren’t you?”
