Chapter 434 A Foolish Gift

Christina led the children out as soon as they finished their breakfast.

After dropping the children off at the kindergarten, she returned to the studio and found her desk.
spotless, save for a freshly brewed cup of coffee.

Christina took a sip and remarked to herself that Rayne’s skills as a barista had improved.

Just then, her phone rang: it was Midas, the designer. When she picked up, a suave voice announced,
“My friends are having a welcome party for me, Christina. Come and join us tonight, would you?”

Midas spent most of his time abroad. On his occasional trips to Chanaea, he would get together with
some of his friends.

The pair had gotten along well during their last meeting about design. “Sure. Send me the address,”
Christina said with a polite laugh.

“See you tonight.” After hanging up, Midas sent an address.

Setting her phone aside, Christina turned her attention back to work until later that afternoon, when she
called the butler and tasked him to pick the children up as she had matters to attend to

After relegating her instructions, Christina exited her office and went to a mall owned by Hadley
Corporation.

She headed to a branded store selling apparel for men, picked out a tie clip in the accessories section,
and had the store assistant gift wrap it.

Nathaniel happened to be passing by in the corridor outside the store during an inspection of the mall.
He was flanked by a group of executives clad in suits. Beside him, Sebastian was giving a report on the
mall’s annual performance.



Nathaniel’s footsteps suddenly came to an abrupt halt. Following his lead, his entourage staggered.
The ones at the back nearly lost their footing.

Turning around, he caught sight of her familiar silhouette. He saw her paying for something at the
counter, and the shop assistant handed her a gift bag.

With her purchase, she walked out of there without noticing him.

Nathaniel glanced up at the shop’s sign and found that it was a store selling men’s apparel.

Could she have gotten me a gifi? She must have realized that she was wrong and wants to apologize
to me.

In a much better mood, Nathaniel smiled to himself before continuing his patrol around the mall.

Christina got dressed in a long, red gown. She let her hair down and applied a lip gloss of a faint pink
color on her lips. That was the only makeup she wore.

Then, she drove to a club in the city and entered the venue after parking.

When she arrived, bursts of song and raucous conversation were already sounding from the private
room.

Midas got up to greet Christina when he saw her enter, then introduced her to his designer friends.

Chapter 431 A Foolish Gift



Christina enjoyed chatting with the designers. Savoring the jovial atmosphere, she downed several gla
of alcohol

“I brought you a gift, Midas. I hope you like it.” Christina handed him the bag. Though it’s my first time
attending a welcome party. I’m sure it’s proper etiquette to bring a gift

Midas smiled as he received it. “What a lovely tie clip! I’ll be sure to wear it for my next press
conference”

The value of the gift was not as important to him as the intention of the giver.

The private room door slid open to admit a well-dressed figure. Elizabeth strode straight toward Midas,
who was engaged in conversation. “Here I am! Sorry for being late”

Upon having his conversation interrupted, Midas resumed his usual solemn air as he greeted politely.
“Nice to see you. Ms. Bennett.

Looking up, Christina met Elizabeth’s gaze. The pair did not speak, but the gaze they exchanged was
saturated with an explosive tension.

Elizabeth caught sight of the gift in Midas hand. “Aren’t you embarrassed to be giving Midas item as a
gift?”

such a tiny

She produced her own gift as she spoke. A gold-colored logo attracted the crowd’s attention at once.

“Hey, this packaging is this brand’s newest line of products! I heard it isn’t on the market yet!”

“Well done on getting your hands on it so quickly. Ms. Bennett!”

“Open it! Let’s see what the new product is.”



Looking immensely pleased with herself, Elizabeth extracted a small, exquisite box from the bag. “I
hope you like it. Midas.”

Initially excited with anticipation, the crowd cringed upon getting a good look at the contents of the
box…

How could Ms. Bennett give something like that as a gift?

With his hands on his hips, Midas rolled his eyes.

Elizabeth looked as if she had been slapped across the face. “Midas…”

Furious, she grabbed Midas’ assistant and demanded, “Isn’t it rude of Midas not to even spare a glance
at the expensive gift I bought? Lest you forget, I have hired him at great expense for design works for
my company

The assistant appeared conflicted “This isn’t Mr. Midas fault. Ustranasions hate more than anything
being gifted ties with diagonal stripes. To them, it is an act of utmost disrespect.”

Elizabeth froze. She turned even paler.

Christina chuckled. “As if not knowing isn’t bad enough, don’t you do your research before buying a
gift?”

Out of all the designs, she has to pick one with diagonal stripes. Dumb*ss.

Elizabeth’s rage tightened every line on her face. She looked as if she would lunge forward. Only for
the sake of her reputation did she hold back.

Chapter 434 A Foolish Gift

Midas’ mood had turned sour. He made no move to accept the gift. Instead, he turned away in a huff. “I
still have things with the design to consult you about. Christina. Let’s talk over here.”

Without sparing Elizabeth another glance, he stepped aside with Christina.

The crowd dispersed while exchanging uncomfortable chuckles.

Perhaps due to the pleasant company they found themselves in, Christina and Midas drank a lot during
their conversation.

Having realized that she had stayed too long, she departed after bidding the others a hasty farewell.

As it was late and she had quite a lot to drink, Christina did not pick up the children. Instead, she hailed
a cab back home.

Her thoughts were occupied with Elizabeth and her idiotic stunt. She was deeply amused by the latter’s
indignant embarrassment.

Lamenting the wasted opportunity for not remembering to take a picture, Christina unlocked the door.
crossed the threshold, and changed into her slippers. Before she took a step toward the living room,
the lights came on

Christina froze. Her gaze found the figure on the couch. “You gave me quite a fright.”

Nathaniel was seated on the couch. His hulking frame was as erect as a glacial peak. He studied
Christina. who was visibly tipsy. “Where have you been? Why are you back so late?”

I’ve been waiting for almost an hour. Since when is she so fond of gallivanting about?



Christina sauntered in. “You can ask my assistant if you would like to be informed of my activities,” she
said coolly. “Besides, my people are available to give you a report on my whereabouts any time you
like.”

She poured herself a glass of water. As soon as she set it down. Nathaniel grabbed her wrist. He was
scowling like an overbearing parent. “Have you been drinking?”

“I have a life, and I shouldn’t have to answer to you.” Christina wrenched her wrist out of his grasp,
displeased.

Nathaniel’s patience ran out when she freed herself. Once more, he grabbed her waist and pressed her
against the table. From his great height, he surveyed her ruddy cheeks imperiously. “I am your
husband. I have a right to know where you are.”
