Chapter 319 Apologize
“W-What are you trying to do?” Christina’s eyes widened, and her heart pounded uncontrollably.
“Didn’t I say I’ll be moving out tomorrow? That means I can stay here for another night. It’s been a long time since you slept in the bedroom. Don’t you miss it?”
A low magnetic voice sounded, causing Christina to blush again. She protested, “No, I don’t.”
“I know you do.”
As he spoke, Nathaniel was already on his way to the bedroom with her in his arms.
He shut the door gently, leaving only their breathing to fill the quiet room.
Silently, Nathaniel held Christina in his arms. She was just as frail as she was before. It felt as though the wind could lift her off her feet.
However, this petite lady before him would run away and leave him without a word.
Nathaniel wrapped his arms around Christina’s slender waist, hugging her tightly in his embrace as he breathed hot air down her neck.
They remained quiet. The moonlight shone brightly, illuminating their figures that were cuddling together.
Early morning the next day, Christina woke up to the morning sun. When she opened her eyes, the man beside her had already left.
She opened the wardrobe and found half of Nathaniel’s clothes gone.
Upon a closer look, she noticed some latest women’s designer fashion pieces hanging in there.
Did Madison stay here while I was away?
Just then, someone knocked on the door. A housekeeper entered the room to clean. When she saw Christina looking at the wardrobe in a daze, she quickly explained, “Mrs. Hadley, even when you weren’t around, Nathaniel would still ask people to fill the closet with the latest women’s designer fashion every season. I guess he was worried you wouldn’t have new clothes to wear when you’re back.”
In doubt, Christina checked the label on the clothes. They were indeed the size she usually wore.
Madison had a larger frame than her. Hence, these clothes wouldn’t fit her.
Suddenly, her mood turned brighter. After changing into a new set of outfits, she went to the study.
“Mommy, can we play soccer at the lawn?”
Camila walked over and made a request using her cute voice, making it hard for others to reject.
“Go ahead. I have something to work on now. Luke, please take care of Camila,” Christina said. Scenic Garden Manor belonged to her now, and she could do whatever she wanted to.
“Okay, Mommy.”
Lucas grabbed Camila’s hand and hurried down the stairs cheerfully.
They had always loved playing soccer. Being too busy with work, Christina couldn’t bring them to the soccer field. Most of the time, they would play at Christina’s studio.
However, her studio was too small for them to play soccer.
Lucas felt like he could finally play a real game with Camila now.
Under the sunlight, the two little figures ran as much as they wished on the
Lucas kicked the ball and sent it flying in the air.
With a thud, it hit Madison, who just got off a car.
“D*mn it! Who did this?” Her dress was wet with mud.
Lucas quickly ran over. “I’m sorry, miss. It was an accident.”
gra*s.
“Where did this kid…” Madison’s eyes widened in shock as she looked at the little boy before her. The little boy looked about three years old but already bore a strong resemblance to Nathaniel.
An ill premonition suddenly brewed in her heart.

Lucas didn’t like the lady before him and only thought she was a scary and fierce woman.
He picked up the ball and wanted to leave but was stopped by Madison. She grabbed his slender arm and asked, “Who is your mom?”
“Let me go. It’s none of your business who my mommy is.” Since they were young, Christina had taught Lucas and Camila not to disclose family information to strangers.
Lucas instinctively thought the woman before him was an evil lady.
“You witch, let go of my brother.” Camila picked up a small stone and threw it at Madison.
Madison gasped in shock before she looked at her. “Another one!”
The little girl and the little boy looked so similar that anyone could tell they were fraternal twins.
Taking advantage of the situation, Lucas broke free and took Camila’s hand. “Run, Camila!TM
With their small steps, the two ran into the house together.
“Run, Raymond! A witch is chasing after us!”
Anxious, Lucas and Camila cried out, and their voices echoed to the second floor.
Upon hearing their cries, Christina came down from the study and met Madison, who was wretched.
Four years later, these two rivals in love finally met, tensing up the atmosphere.
Madison gasped and asked in disbelief, “Christina, why are you here?”
Although Nathaniel had been persistently inquiring about Christina’s whereabouts these years, the news all turned out to be false. Despite his efforts in looking for Christina, nothing worked out.
A few days ago, Madison heard from Sebastian that there was news of Christina. Naturally, she thought it would be a dud.
She never expected Christina to return.
With an icy glare, Christina said, “This is my turf. I should be the one asking why you were here.”
After Madison heard the response, her expression grew dark. Her eyes were filled with disdain as she asked, “Who is their father?”
I remember her stomach was flat when she left. When did she get pregnant?
Crossing her arms, Christina replied firmly, “It’s Nathaniel.”
Upon hearing that, Madison’s eyes quivered. When did she get pregnant? Before she left?
She forced herself to remain calm and said sarcastically, “Well, who knows who their father is? Back then, you had an ambiguous relationship with Francis. Maybe, he’s the father? Or maybe you had them with some other man out there. Don’t try to make Nathaniel their father!” After she spoke, she deliberately looked at the kids with disdainful eyes.
Camila frowned slightly before she hid behind Lucas.
“Nonsense! We’re not some kids that were born out of nowhere. We’re Mommy’s precious kids,” Lu retorted as he shielded Camila.
Seeing her kids’ frightened expressions, Christina was angered.
She walked to Madison and raised her hand, slapping the latter on her face.
Her palm print was clearly printed on Madison’s face.
“How dare you hit me?” Madison’s pupils were ferociously red and bloodshot.
“So what?”
This was something Christina wanted to do four years ago. Now that she had done it, she felt satisfied beyond words.
The pain on Madison’s face couldn’t compare to the humiliation she felt. Furious, she lunged at Christina. “Christina, I’m going to kill you!”
“Don’t hit Mommy, you witch!”
Lucas pounded on Madison, who came charging at Christina. Taken aback, Madison staggered and fell backward. However, she was caught by someone in time and didn’t fall.
“What’s happening here?” Nathaniel looked at them coldly as he asked.
“This evil lady here said we were b”stards, so Mommy got angry and hit her!” Lucas furrowed his brows, and his eyes flashed with anger.
“The kids attacked me first. Look how dirty my clothes became. Even my forehead is grazed…” Madison felt wronged..
Gritting his teeth, Nathaniel breathed through his teeth coldly. “Apologize.”
