Chapter 519 Christina Falls Into The Sea
Seeing that, Madison was elated.
The incense is taking effect.
“Nathaniel, are you all right?” Madison feigned ignorance as she came forward to support him.
“Stay away from me!” Nathaniel barked.
This time, it wasn’t that easy for him to push Madison aside. Just like a snake, the latter began to entwine herself around him.
She suggested in a seductive tone, “Nathaniel, do you feel hot? Why don’t I take off your jacket for you?”
Just as she spoke, she reached out to unbutton Nathaniel’s shirt.
“Get lost!” Nathaniel pushed her away with all his might but lost his balance and fell to the ground due to his own inertia.
The moment she saw him on the floor, Madison’s eyes lit up.
Brimming with excitement, she crawled up to Nathaniel like a dog before straddling his hips.
If anyone were to take a picture of the compromising position they were in, it would definitely hit the headlines.
Obviously, that was what Madison was looking to achieve.
When she disguised herself as Christina the last time, she didn’t put in place any reporters.
Therefore, having learned her lesson, she invited over a dozen reporters over this time and even colluded with quite a few of them.
Upon checking the time, she expected them to swarm inside at any moment.
The thought of everyone knowing that she had slept with Nathaniel and the look on Christina’s face when she learned of it gave Madison an unprecedented thrill.
“You’ll be mine real soon, Nathaniel,” Madison murmured as she stared at the unconscious Nathaniel.
Thereafter, she began to take off his clothes carefully, as if she was unwrapping an extremely expensive gift.
Just as she was engrossed in what she was doing, she felt a forceful pull from behind, causing her to topple onto the ground.
Slap!
The moment she turned around, a heavy slap landed on her face.
“Christina!” Madison shrieked as she glowered at Christina while holding her cheek.
Slap!
The latter didn’t say a word as she unleashed another devastating slap upon Madison’s face.
“How dare you hit me, Christina. I’m going to kill you!” Once she recovered from her daze, the defiant Madison climbed back up to her feet and lunged at Christina.
Even though the latter managed to dodge, both of them were soon embroiled in a brawl.
Mustering all her strength, Madison dragged Christina to the wrought-iron railings that separated them. from the sea.
The railings were waist-high, and a little strength was all that was needed to push someone over it.
If one were to look down, one would be greeted by a cliff that plunged right into the sea.
“You’ve gone mad, Madison!”
“Yes, indeed I have.” Madison’s eyes were glaringly wide, and her twisted expression was extremely terrifying. “Let’s die together, Christina!”
It was clear that Madison wasn’t afraid of death, but the same couldn’t be said of Christina, who still had parents, a husband, and children.
With that thought in mind, Christina flipped Madison around with a sudden burst of strength, switching their positions with each other.
In spite of that, Madison maintained a death grip on Christina, preventing her from extracting herself from the dangerous situation.
While both of them were locked in a desperate struggle, the railing-meant to only keep tourists away from the edge-could no longer withstand the weight of the two ladies. Amidst the blowing wind, indiscernible creaking began to ring out.
“Over here!”
The reporters finally arrived.
“You’ll never be able to beat me, Christina!” Madison burst out in laughter upon hearing the flurry of footsteps outside.
Victory is mine!
“Ah!”
No sooner had Madison finished than the screw that kept the railing in place finally gave way.
Caught off guard, both ladies lost their balance and fell right off the clift
The reporters who had barged in coincidentally saw what happened and lunged forward in an attempt to save them. Unfortunately, all they could do was watch the two plunging into the sea with a splash.
“Oh no, Ms. Taggart has fallen into the sea!”
As some of them were invited by Madison, they naturally knew that she was one of the two. As for the other, no one had a clue at that time.
Soon, news of Madison falling into the sea spread like wildfire, ending the engagement banquet before it even started.
The Taggart and Lesley families busied themselves by sending rescue teams to go out to sea while the invited guests gradually left the venue.
As for Nathaniel, he slowly woke up in the lounge.
The moment his eyes opened, he was greeted by the sight of Sebastian and Francis standing by his bed.
“What happened to me?” He held his throbbing head as he sat up.
“Have some water first, Mr. Hadley.” Sebastian handed him a gla*s of warm water attentively.
After feeling better from downing the water, Nathaniel remembered what happened before he lost
consciousness.
With a tight furrow of his brows, he asked. “How did I get here? What happened after I fell unconscious?”
He figured that there was more to Madison’s plan than just causing him to faint.
The two men exchanged glances before Sebastian decided to tell him with a solemn expression. “I’ll explain, Mr. Hadley, but you’ll have to stay calm.”
As the look on Sebastian’s face was unprecedented. Nathaniel couldn’t help but be filled with a sense of dread. Hadley Corporation’s stock price must have been affected, but that isn’t something I can’t handle, even if it’s the combined effort of the Taggart and Lesley families..
“Spit it out!”
“Ms. Christina has fallen into the sea.”
Nathaniel suddenly heard a ringing in his ears, as it had never crossed his mind that he would hear such a thing from Sebastian.
As he stared at Sebastian, the veins on his hands bulged up. “Say that again?”
Nathaniel almost fainted a second time upon hearing Sebastian’s revelation.
