Chapter 401 Must Wear It
After work, the two of them returned to Scenic Garden Manor
Lucas and Camila ran up to them “Mommy, are you done renovating the new home?”
“It’s done I can take you to see it during the weekend Christina stroked their heads.
When Nathaniel saw how Lucas and Camila were trying to climb onto Christina like little kangaroos, he bent down and carried them “That condominium is so small. It’s not even as big as the lawn in front of our house. There’s nothing fun about it”
“Mommy bought a bunk bed! I want to go!”
Camila’s eyes crinkled when she smiled. She looked so adorable that others would buy anything she wanted without hesitation.
“We’ll go together during the weekend,” Christina promised.
Christina sent her kids to the kindergarten early in the morning.
“Monimy, I have a ballet performance at five in the afternoon. You must come on time to watch me. okay?” Camila blinked expectantly.
Christina kissed her little forehead. “Okay, my little princess. I promise.”
“See you in the afternoon.”
Holding her brother’s hand, Camila entered the kindergarten happily.
After breakfast, Camila was summoned to the dance studio by her ballet teacher.
The woman gazed at her with a gentle look. “Camila, you are going to perform with me later. Have you remembered the dance moves?”
Camila smiled faintly, revealing her cute dimples. “I’ve remembered them all, Ms. Taggart.”
The sunlight poured into the spacious office while Christina sat at her desk and sketched some design drafts.
As she had a habit of getting lost in her work, she set an alarm in advance to remind herself to pick up the kids from kindergarten before five.
When lunchtime approached, someone pushed the office door open.
“Aren’t you going for lunch?” Nathaniel’s charismatic voice sounded above her head.
Christina was so focused on her work that she did not even look up. Sounding as languid as a cat bathing in the warm sun, she said, “I’m going to watch Camila’s performance in the afternoon, so I need to quickly finish today’s work first.”
“You still need to eat regardless of how busy you are.”
Nathaniel reached out and took the tablet in front of her.
Like a cat whose food had been stolen away, Christina whined and stood up from her seat.
She grabbed the tablet back and saved the document before putting it down
“Let’s have lunch in my office.”
A satisfied smile appeared on Nathaniel’s face as he held her hand and walked out.
When they reached the office, Christina barely had time to react before she was pinned against the wall. A pa*sionate kiss then greeted her.
Hugging her slender waist with one hand, Nathaniel slipped his other hand into his pocket, which contained a small velvet bag with a diamond ring.
It was the ring he had specially bought after Christina left.
At the time, he had bought it with the thought of putting the ring on her finger after finding her to tie her to him so that she could never leave him again.
Arching her head, Christina met his kiss. Suddenly, she felt him grip her wrist and restrain it. A cool sensation then descended upon her fingertip.
When she lowered her head, she spotted a ring on her finger.
The five-carat diamond ring shone dazzlingly underneath the light.
“I wanted to buy a bigger one. However, since I was afraid it would inconvenience you during work, I chose a more casual style.”
Nathaniel stretched out his hand, revealing that he was also wearing a matching wedding ring on his ring finger.
Taking off the ring without any hesitation, Christina complained softly, “I don’t want to wear a ring. Besides, how is a five-carat diamond ring casual?”
He just wanted everyone to know that she was a married woman.
Nathaniel placed his hand over her hand, stopping her. “If you don’t wear a wedding ring, others will think you’re single. Those new male colleagues are looking at you like hungry wolves seeing a tender little rabbit.”
Christina did not know how to react.
Is it necessary to be this nervous just because a new male colleague spoke a few words to me in the elevator this morning?
“There’s no need for this, right?”
“You must wear it.”
Nathaniel hugged her slender waist and pressed her against the gla*s window. Lowering his head, he pressed his lips on hers, taking her breath away.
Just when Christina became completely defenseless, he slipped the wedding ring over her finger again.
Christina found the huge diamond extremely dazzling. “The five-carat diamond is blinding me. Let’s pick a ring that doesn’t stand out too much another day.”
One without diamonds
A satisfied smile formed on Nathaniel’s lips when he saw that she was no longer resisting “Okay”
He lowered his head slightly and kissed her lips. She could feel the warmth of his breath spreading across her body.
Although there was no one in the spacious office, Christina’s heart was constantly gripped with fear. She felt anxious, as if she had smick into someone’s house to steal something.
“Stop fooling out! We’re in the office now.”
She pushed Nathaniel away, her lipstick smudged from his kisses.
Nathaniel raised his hand and gently wiped the lipstick off the corner of her mouth, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
Christina’s face was flushing from his kisses.
Because of what the man did, she said that she was returning to work immediately after eating a bowl of food for lunch.
When she went to her office downstairs, Rayne noticed her smudged lipstick and reminded softly. “You’re going to meet a client later. Do you want to touch up your makeup?”
Christina’s face turned even redder. “Thanks for reminding me. I’ll do it now.”
She walked into the office and closed the door behind her. The scene of her kissing Nathaniel circled her mind repeatedly.
Taking a deep breath, she opened her bag and took out a compact mirror. She then powdered her face. and reapplied her lipstick.
Her phone’s alarm went off on time. Christina tidied up her desk quickly and hurried out.
When she was heading there, she received a call from Bailey. They arranged to meet at the kindergarten
gate.
Bailey was even more excited than Christina. “I’m going to take the best photos for Camila later!”
Soon, the homeroom teacher walked over and led them to the dance studio in the kindergarten.
Many parents had come to watch the performance that day. Bailey and Christina soon found some random seats adjacent to each other and sat down.
Bailey raised her phone, ready to start filming.
At the drop of the music, a little girl wearing a pink, fluffy ballet dress emerged.
With her adorable and innocent face, Camila swayed with the melody, earning a round of enthusiastic applause from the audience.
At this moment, another figure in a pink ballet dress twirled toward Camila’s side.
Holding hands with each other, both dancers-one taller than the other-gazed at each other with wide smiles. It was a very heartwarming scene.
The moment the female teacher appeared on the stage, Christina recognized her to be Madison.
Why is she Camila’s ballet teacher?
When their gaze met, an invisible tension filled the air,
Bailey also sensed something was odd. She had seen Madison before and heard Christina mention her.
A grim expression immediately crossed her face as she stopped filming on her phone.
