Chapter 579 A Sense Of Danger

Christina felt her temple throbbing, feeling as though a sense of danger was wrapping her tightly like a
massive web.

Opening her arms, she hugged Nathaniel’s slender waist and buried her face in him. “Someone tried to
kill me. Nathaniel.”

His body stiffened momentarily before he anxiously pushed her away and peered straight into her eyes.
“Tell me what happened earlier.” No wonder I felt a strange vibe when I entered the room. I didn’t ask
her about it directly in consideration of her privacy.

Pursing her lips, Christina wondered what she should say.

Nathaniel perceptively noticed the handprint hidden underneath her shirt and checked her neck.

Seeing the harrowing red mark left behind by the strangle pained him.

A murderous intent flashed past his eyes as he did his best to conceal his most violent persona.

“Tell me, Christina. Please.” There was a cold touch to his tender voice.

Closing her eyes, she suppressed her fear and recounted, “When I was sleeping, someone entered my
-room and tried to choke me. There was a blackout here at the time, so the room was too dark for me
to make out the person’s appearance. When I was fighting back, I scratched that person, but I don’t
know which part of the body part I injured.”

Regret filled Nathaniel’s voice. “I’m sorry. I should’ve stayed with you or returned here sooner.” Those
old farts in the board meeting kept troubling me. Even though I handled them perfectly well, I wasted
too much time. To think I almost lost Christina in the few hours I left her unattended!



Smiling, Christina reassured, “It happened so suddenly and no one saw it coming, so don’t blame
yourself, Nathaniel. I won’t allow you to do that.”

Unfortunately, Nathaniel was unable to forgive himself because he thought that such a dangerous
encounter could’ve been avoided entirely.

“I’ll handle your discharge procedure so you can continue to recuperate at home,” stated Nathaniel
firmly. “I won’t allow a similar incident to occur again, Christina.”

However, Christina hesitated. “If I do, it’ll be inconvenient for me to tend to my mother-”

“I’ll hire a professional medical team to care for your mother. Furthermore, I’ll assign a few bodyguards
to protect her from the shadows. The culprit’s target is you, but I doubt they’ll strike again soon after the
failed attempt.”

Nathaniel’s not wrong. Since the mysterious assailant is injured, I doubt they’ll appear before me
carelessly again. Additionally, I’m now carrying a baby. I must be a responsible mother to him. In that
case… Christina nodded. “I’ll -recuperate at Scenic Garden Manor.”

Immediately, Nathaniel arranged for her discharge. Sebastian came to pick them up.

Christina entered the automobile with a cup of warm milk Nathaniel had prepared for her. Upon sipping
it, she glanced at him. “I forgot to mention something. After the assailant left my ward, I recognized the
smell in the air. It was the same scent as the handmade velvet flower. Hence, I suspect the person who
attempted to murder me was Emilia.”

In response. Nathaniel informed. “The buyer of the handmade velvet flower has been confirmed to be
Emilia.”



Sebastian hesitated briefly. “Emilia was released two hours ago. I’m sorry for not asking anyone to
keep an eye on her, Mr. Hadley.”

In that case, Emilia’s even more suspicious. Christina glanced at Sebastian and comforted, “It’s not
your fault, Mr. Taggart. We’re merely speculating that Emilia was the culprit. There’s no evidence
proving that she was the assailant, so she has many arguments she can use to defend her innocence.”

Still, an apologetic smile settled on Sebastian’s face. Even if Christina’s defending me, it still doesn’t
erase the fact that I have made a terrible mistake.

Instead of reprimanding his subordinate, Nathaniel ordered, “Have someone keep an eye on Emilia,
Sebastian. Ask them to find out if she visited a hospital or a pharmacy or if she was injured.”

“Understood!” replied Sebastian.

Then, Nathaniel turned to the milk in Christina’s hand. “You should finish it.”

Christina couldn’t stand the smell of milk, so she usually wouldn’t touch the drink. However, she
couldn’t resist Nathaniel’s stare and relented.

Hence, she drank all the milk inside the thermos cup.

On the way back to Scenic Garden Manor, she started feeling sleepy.

After Nathaniel finished handling his work emails on his laptop, he turned his sight to Christina. He
noticed she was sleeping with her head pressing against the window.

In response, he leaned toward her, gently turning her head toward him.

Abruptly, Christina woke up. With her drowsy eyes, she scanned her surrounding. “Are we home?”

“Yes. I’ll carry you out of the car.” As Nathaniel spoke, he covered his coat on Christina’s body.



Hugging his neck, she let him lift her out of the vehicle. “Am I heavy?” I’ve gained quite a lot of weight
recently, and my waist has gotten rounder. One more month, and I won’t be able to hide my tummy
anymore.

“Not at all. I think you should eat more and grow a little chubbier so you feel softer to touch.” Nathaniel
grinned.

I feel like he was making a sexual remark, but I don’t have any evidence supporting that assumption.
“Let me down. I want to walk on my own,” she protested.

“The ground’s slippery. It’s not safe.”

Christina didn’t respond. After Nathaniel brought her into the building, he let her down.

Sebastian followed behind the couple and closed the door. Facing Sebastian, Nathaniel frowned.
“What’s the matter?”

Sebastian glimpsed at Christina and steeled himself. “Will you still attend the banquet at nine tonight,
Mr. Hadley? The organizer had someone call us a couple of times already.”

Without hesitation, Nathaniel uttered, “No.”

“Mr. Labarge of Raveworks Enterprise wishes to discuss the collaboration with you face-to-face,
though.”

The mention of Raveworks Enterprise fully awoken Christina. “I want to attend it, Nathaniel.” I wish to
meet H’inston in person.

Nathaniel grasped her intention and nodded. “Handle the arrangement, Sebastian.”

“Also, please help me obtain a guest list of the banquet, Mr. Taggart,” requested Christina.



“Sure.” Sebastian replied before leaving.

Without delay, Christina entered the living room.

“Aren’t you going to explain your plan, Christina?” Nathaniel was seated beside her on the couch. I
want to hear it from her.

“I want to know what kind of person Winston was and what role he played in the incident back then.”
answered Christina. “Back then, his construction company was only a small workshop. Meanwhile, the
Hadley and the Gibson family were already distinguished entities in the city. If no one introduced him to
the families, he wouldn’t have been able to secure their major collaboration project.” I won’t abandon
my investigation until the day I discover the truth. Many possibilities crossed my mind before, and I
believe there was a conflict in the family or business.

“Winston’s not the only one who wishes to collaborate with Hadley Corporation recently. There’s also
Nigel, who had someone contacted me many times already.”
