Chapter 140 Time To Have Medicine
Outside the door, Sebastian, who was eavesdropping on Christina and Nathaniel’s conversation,
panicked and broke into cold sweat.
Hadn’t I reminded her to be careful? Yet, she’s frankly admitting to having an ulterior motive. Does she
intend to make Mr. Hadley burst a blood vessel before she’d quit?.
In the room, the temperature abruptly plummeted. Christina marched to Nathaniel’s side and stuck her
hands on her slender waist before dering, “You must behave when you take your medicer
instead of having me feed you again.”
“That’s all?” Nathaniel questioned coldly.
Christina nodded firmly and pulled him up from his seat.
When the two of them had finished eating lunch, Sebastian came in with a bowl of traditional medicine.
“Drink it while it’s hot, Mr. Hadley.”
Something unique about traditional medicine was it had to be drunk while it was hot. Otherwise, its
efficacy would be affected when the aroma had dissipated.
Picking up the bowl, Nathaniel threw his head back and downed the medicine.
“Wow, how amazing! Here’s a piece of candy as a reward.” As though performing a magic trick,
Christina whipped out a strawberry-vored candy from her bag.
After unwrapping it, she stuffed it into the man’s mouth.
“Well? It doesn’t feel bitter anymore, does it?” she eximed, beaming from ear to ear.
Under the lights, her innocent smiling face was revealed in its full glory. Sheer vitality was reflected in
her limpid eyes and rosy lips.
It was the first time Sebastian had seen Nathaniel being so cooperative. Sure enough, he’s different
when Christina is here!
Rejoicing inwardly, he left the room with the empty bowl in his hand.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel returned to his desk and continued working. Christina was in no hurry to leave.
She moved a stool over and sat by his feet quietly, flipping through a magazine.
The magazine in her hand was thetest fashion publication with the currently trending celebrities and
singers who were rtively popr.
She behaved remarkably well, resting a hand against Nathaniel’sp while flipping through the
magazine with great interest.
This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
“Look, Nathaniel, the styling I did for Coco made it into this magazine! The editor evenuded it for
being wildly creative!”
She spread the magazine in front of the man. “Look. Isn’t it beautiful?”
Nathaniel indifferently swept a gaze over it. “Yeah.”

“Am I incredible or what?” Christina boasted proudly.
“Yeah.” Nathaniel murmured.

All of a sudden, the woman who was all enthusiastic previously slumped against the man’s shoulder
like a deted balloon.
Shemented, “Unfortunately, Coco told me all her work has recently been suspended. Even if I’ve got
new ideas, I can’t put them into practice. Oh well…”

Having said that, Christina raised her bright eyes and blinked them at Nathaniel pitifully.
Her innocent look made Nathaniel’s heart soften. If she had asked for the moon in the sky at that very
instant, he would have been willing to get it for her.
“What do you want?” In the end, he caved in.
Following that, Christina jumped for joy. “Don’t make things difficult for them anymore, okay? Restore
their work. Then, I can also continue mine.”
There were at least a dozen celebrities attached to Francis’ studio. Once their work was suspended.
everyone around them would be affected.
Nathaniel ced his massive palm on her delicate wrist. With a forceful tug, he yanked her right into
his arms.
He lowered his head, brushing his thin lips against her fair and exquisite neck. “You’re not allowed to
meet him anymore henceforth.”
Like an order, his words held no room for negotiation.
Christina immediately realized the man was still fuming about the incidentst night. “I didn’t go there
for the express purpose of meeting him.”
No sooner had she finished speaking than his teeth mped on her neck. Her heartbeat promptly
sped. up. “Ouch, it hurts…”
Wrapping a hand around her slender waist, Nathaniel lifted her chin with the other hand. His scorching
breath brushed against the back of her ear. “You’ll never learn unless it hurts.”
After he had said that, he stered his cool lips against the back of her ear once more.
When Christina returned to the office, she wore a scarf around her neck.
The man’s ck scarf on her neck appeared very much out of ce with her professional attire.
Her colleagues cast strange looks in her direction, but she steeled herself and ignored them all. Within
seconds of stepping into the office, she received good news from Coco.
“My jobs have been resumed, Christina! The gown has to be on schedule as I need to wear it next
month!”
The corners of Christina’s mouth turned up. “That’s great. I’ll definitely do my best and make you the
limelight on the red carpet.”

“I love you to the moon and back! See you then!”
After hanging up the phone, Christina started busying herself with work matters.

As the group leader, her workload was several times higher than it was previously. Hence, she only
settled everything when it was almost time to get off work.
Ever since thepany came up with the new rule, she had her schedule packed. She openly
epted. themission from Coco, going to the tailor room after the workday to work on it.
The gown she designed was golden in color, and the curved seam design rendered the hem stunningly
beautiful. The gilt design was superimposed with golden rhinestones.
With that, a perfect gown took shape. Before leaving, she took the gown off the hanger and put it into
her bag.
There were too many people in the office, and she could not allow the gown’s design toe to light
too early. Otherwise, things would be bad if someone were to imitate it.
When she arrived back at Scenic Garden Manor, she locked herself in the tailor room specially
prepared for her. The room was fully equipped with everything she might need.
It was prepared on Nathaniel’s orders, mainly to entice her into spending more time at Scenic Garden
Manor.
Christina was the kind of person who would forget the time when she got absorbed in work. She only
returned to her room to restte at night. The next day, she again continued working without a
moment’s dy.
At longst, shepleted the gown before the film festival.
On the day of the awards ceremony, Coco had her assistant pick Christina up and drive her to the
venue’s dressing room. As soon as Christina stepped in the door, she was greeted by the sight of Coco
waiting without any makeup on.
“You’re finally here, Christina! I can only rest easy with you doing my makeup.”
By then, Coco was exceedingly dependent upon Christina when it came to the issue of her dressing
and styling, having no confidence in allowing others to do her makeup.
Christina had Coco change into the gown before she started doing thetter’s makeup. Then, she
wrapped up with the overall styling-
After more than two hours of hard work, aplete set of looks were presented to the staff.
“Ms. Coco’s gown is truly breathtaking!”
“She’ll undoubtedly be the center of attention tonight!”
“Ah, I can’t wait!”
Coco stared at herself in the mirror. Wow, I can’t believe this
In all the years I’ve been in the entertainment industry, the most fortunate thing that happened to me is
making Christina’s acquaintance. She helped me create my image, rendering me the darling of the
industry time and
again!
Grasping Christina’s hands, she gushed, “Although I might not necessarily win tonight, I still wish for
yourpany. Shall we go for supper together after the awards ceremony?”
Christina nodded in assent. “I’ll be waiting for you. Good luck!”
Subsequently, Coco left the dressing room under the staff’s arrangements. Christina and her assistant,
on the other hand, slipped into the auditorium backstage and took their seats.
When Coco walked the red carpet in her elegant dress, countless lights shed, and all cameras were
focused on her.
“Coco is drop-dead gorgeous!”
“Look here, Coco!”
“Are you confident of receiving an award tonight, Coco?”
Coco greeted the media with a smile on her face, taking the spotlight.
Behind her, many female celebrities were inevitably envious to see that she was the center of attention.
The dress she’s wearing is not from a luxurious brand. Why is it so beautiful though?
