Chapter 136

Why Did You Lie To Me

Christina’s clear eyes were filled with rage.

Francis was struck by a wave of guilt when he saw the mild-mannered woman glaring at him. “What’s
the matter with you?”

“You’re not Rence’s fiancé. Why did you lie to me?” Christina questioned.

Francis had wanted to take the opportunity to explain to her, but as it turned out, she had already found
out about it herself. “You didn’t ask me properly about it. I wanted to explain to you.”

Explain to me? You had so many opportunities to explain to me, but you decided to only tell me about
this after I exposed your lie?

With a scoff, Christina began walking toward the doorway.

Francis ran after her. “Don’t be mad! I was worried that you’d ignore me if you found out that I wasn’t
Rence’s fiancé. That’s why I hid the truth from you.”

Even though Christina did not slow down, she was much shorter than Francis, who soon caught up
with her and stood in her way.

Forced to halt in her tracks, she then snapped, “Thats not a good reason.”

With that. Christina shoved him aside and strode off

Francis did not run after her this time. He knew that not only might he fail to console her, but she might
even attack him.



As he watched her leave, he could not help but lamen about how it would be wonderful if she were not
Nathaniel’s woman.

In her anger, Christina blocked Francis’ contact.

For the next few days, she focused on finishing Coco’s appearance. It was a personal project, and
Francis’ studio was going to transfer the fee to her account at the end of the month.

Soon, Coco’s new album was released. The moment it was released, it garnered over five million
views.

Not only was the audience praising her incredible dance moves and beautiful singing voice, but they
were also praising the stunning attire showcased in the music video.

A number of companies noticed that, and plenty of people started trying to find out who was the stylist
for the music video.

As Coco proudly displayed her photo with Christina, she unknowingly unveiled the secret that Christina
had been working on a personal project.

Not long after, someone in the company wrote an anonymous letter to the company. In the afternoon,
Gina received a message about the matter and summoned Christina to her office.

Christina knew that she had gone against the company rules, so she was nervous. After all, she still
needed the job.

As Gina watched the music video on her computer screen, she remarked, “You’ve made good choices.
in the matching. You seem to be talented in this area”

Christina had braced herself for a scolding from Gina, but to her surprise, instead of a warning letter,
Gina began to praise her. “Ms. Tanner. 1-”

Gina cut her off. “You’re not allowed to take on personal projects in the future. However, the company
has also implemented a new rule. From now on, all employees of the company will receive eight
percent of the remuneration for personal projects.”

The employees were concealing their personal projects from the company in order to earn some extra
income. Once the company became aware of this, they decided to amend the rules.

Just as Christina stepped out of the office, the employees received an email about the new rules. It
made those who anonymously complained about Christina pale.

Their intention was for the company to reprimand Christina, but their plan did not unfold as expected.
Instead, it had the unintended consequence of making other designers appreciate Christina

even more.

After all, she was the reason others no longer needed to hide their personal projects from the

company.

As it had been a long time since Christina had seen her grandmother, she went to the supermarket for
a grocery trip after work before heading home.

Nathaniel had gifted Evelyn with a dance studio, and as a result, she began inviting her friendly
neighbors to dance together on a daily basis.



When Christina entered the house, she kept the groceries she had bought in the fridge. It was only
after she cooked dinner did she head to the dance studio to look for her grandmother.

Upon entering the dance studio, she realized the building had a far better environment than the

outside.

Even though Evelyn was old, she still loved dancing enthusiastically.

That day, she was wearing a bright floral skirt, and it twirled as she danced gracefully to the music with
a young man.

Christina stared at the young man curiously and realized that the man seemed familiar.

Meanwhile, the middle-aged women around them were all talking about the handsome young man.
They were thinking of asking for his number to introduce him to their daughters.

Right as the song ended, Christina walked over to say “Granny, let’s go home to eat.”

However, Evelyn pulled her dance partner over and exclaimed, “Christina, let me introduce you to my
new friend.”

The young man, who was wearing a white shirt, caught everyone’s eyes as he stood under the light.
He was dazzling.

“Francis? Why are you here?” Christina questioned with a frown. Why is he Granny’s dance partner?

“Oh, so the two of you know each other. What a coincidence. Come on, let’s go home to have a meal
together.

It seemed as though Evelyn did not notice the frown on Christina’s face, for she chuckled and led
Francis away. In the end, Christina had no choice but to follow them.



Nevertheless, before Francis could enter the house, Christina stopped him and asked, “What are you
trying to do?”

A cynical smile grew on Francis’ lips before he replied, “I don’t have any nefarious plan. I’m a
representative of the neighborhood elderly care project, so I’ll spend some time on charitable work
every year.”

Dressed in a thin shirt, he nonchalantly slipped his hands into his pockets, emanating an effortless
charm infused with a subtle touch of mischief.

At the sight of that, Christina thought, No wonder others think of him as the most attractive male
celebrity the second he debuted.

Still, Christina did not believe his words. How could he possibly encounter her grandmother by
coincidence while doing charitable work?

Just then, Evelyn called out to them, “Why are you lingering by the entrance? Come inside already!”

“Of course, ma’am,” Francis answered before entering the house.

When his gaze landed on the scrumptious dishes on the table, he praised, “I didn’t think you’d be able
to prepare such delicious-looking food besides being a great designer.”

Christina shot him a glare and whispered, “Hush and start digging in instead.”

After dinner, Francis insisted on leaving with Christina. Before he left, he even told her grandmother, “I’ll
come and dance with you again when I have the time.”

It seemed like Evelyn was enamored with him, for she was all smiles as she sent them both off.

Once they were in the car, Christina said to him, “Just take me to the nearest junction.”



Francis ignored her words and said, “I’ll send you back to the city.”

Christina did not answer him. She looked out of the window instead, clearly still angry about the
incident.

When she was quiet, she was as cute as a kitten, and he would feel the urge to hug her.

Still, Francis sent her to a junction with a nearby bus station. Without hesitation, Christina got out of the
car and left.

It was only when Christina was out of Francis’ sight did he finally drive off.

By the time Christina arrived back at Scenic Garden Manor, it was already late.

The dishes on the table remained untouched, but there were already two clean, empty plates on the
table. Christina guessed that Nathaniel was home.

When she tiptoed into the study, she found Nathaniel by the table, working as usual. There was even a
pile of folders on a corner of the table.

It seemed as if he had endless documents to go through.

When Nathaniel caught a whiff of the faint scent Christina had, he said, “Come in.”

Christina chuckled. “You haven’t had your dinner despite the late hour.”

Nathaniel lifted his head to look at her. “Where did you go?”
