Is he still angry about Francis?

If Christina had to define her relationship with Francis, she would undoubtedly consider him at
stranger.
With a sigh, she dialed Nathaniel’s number. It rang for a while, but no one answered.
Christina had no choice but to call Sebastian. “Sebastian, are you with Nathaniel?”
“Mrs. Hadley? Mr. Hadley just got off the plane and returned to Scenic Garden Manor to rest,” Sebastian answered truthfully.
“All right. Thank you.”
After hanging up the phone, Christina asked the driver to head to Scenic Garden Manor.
Half an hour later, Christina walked through the gates of Scenic Garden Manor, dragging her suitcase with one hand and holding a cake with the other.
Upon seeing her, the housekeeper came over to help her with her luggage.
Christina entered the house and looked around. As no one was around, she figured that Nathaniel must be on the second floor.
We’ve already been giving each other the silent treatment for so many days now. He’s probably not upset anymore, right?
Carrying the cake she had specially bought, Christina walked up to the second floor.
The door to the study was half-open. She happily walked over and began, “Nathaniel, I bought a cake
Halfway through her sentence, Christina paused in her tracks in shock.
Madison was standing in front of the desk, slowly turning around. Her long hair was damp, and she donned a bathrobe that revealed a part of her chest.
What was worse, the bathrobe was Christina’s. She didn’t need brains to figure out what it meant for Madison to take a bath in their house and even wear her bathrobe.
“Christina, what brings you back here?” Madison lifted her chin and spoke as if she were the lady of the house.
“This is my house. Do I need to report to you when ome back?” Christina clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with hostility. “I should be the one asking why you’re in my house.”
Christina had lived in Scenic Garden Manor for several years, and as Nathaniel’s wife, she could confidently call this place her house.
Madison’s lips curled up in triumph. She hooked her hair around her finger and replied provocatively, “Why don’t you guess why I’m here, wearing a bathrobe and looking like I just took a shower?”
Christina instantly felt a lump in her throat. She blinked a few times as the scene of a mistress entering the house in a TV show flashed through her mind.

“Disgusting,” she blurted out angrily before storming off.

So this was why he didn’t contact me for a week. He deliberately found an excuse to get angry and left me at the side to have fun with another woman!
Christina could barely hold back her tears.
When she descended the stairs, the butler noticed that something was off with her expression and hurriedly caught up. “Mrs. Hadley, what’s wrong?”
Without saying anything, Christina angrily threw the cake into the trash, then grabbed her luggage and left aggrievedly.
The butler had no idea what had happened and why Christina would suddenly throw the perfectly fine. cake.
Upstairs, Nathaniel stepped out of the master bedroom.
He was dressed in casual home wear, his freshly blown hair appearing soft under the light. At that moment, he looked just like a dazzling celebrity on a magazine cover.
For a while, Madison felt as if she was truly the lady of the house, and the man walking toward her was none other than her husband.
Such a life is too perfect-
“Why haven’t you left yet?”
Nathaniel walked past her, his gaze not even lingering on her for a second.
His curt sentence shattered the beautiful vision that Madison had just conjured up in her mind.
Her heart tightened painfully.
“I just finished organizing the files for you,” Madison said with a somewhat unfocused gaze. “I’ll leave as soon as my clothes are here.”
It had suddenly started pouring when they came back just now, so both of them got drenched.
That was why Nathaniel made an exception and allowed Madison to dry her clothes in his house.
Madison had delivered documents to Scenic Garden Manor countless times before, but today was the first time she could actually stay for a while.
She didn’t expect that this would cause Christina to misunderstand. Thinking back to the way Christina left furiously just now, she felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
“I’ll let the driver take you home,” Nathaniel said, implying that he wanted her to leave.
He didn’t like other women hanging around in his hose, and he disliked, even more, having the scent of another woman in the air.
“But I’m wearing a bathrobe…” Madison protested weakly. She had casually grabbed Christina’s bathrobe earlier.
Nathaniel lowered his eyes and flipped through the documents in his hand. “I don’t need it Do whatever you want with it when you go back.”
He wouldn’t let Christina touch the bathrobe that another woman had worn, anyway.
anymore.
Madison couldn’t hide the disappointment in her eyes. She bit her lip and wanted to ask why Nathaniel disliked her so much, but she didn’t dare to speak up.
After giving a hum of acknowledgment, she turned around and walked away.
The driver was already waiting for her with the car reserved for guests when she got to the entrance.
While Madison got into the car and left, Nathaniel checked his phone and saw a missed call from
Christina.
Last week, Nathaniel had to make an unexpected overseas business trip due to an urgent matter. Due to the difference in time zones, every time he was free, it was already late at night on Christina’s side.
That was the reason he didn’t call Christina. Staring at the phone, Nathaniel wondered if his little girl had been behaving well these days.
