Chapter 294
Chapter 294 Tense Atmosphere
Although Sebastian was furious, he did not want to disturb Nathaniel’s work.
Hence, he kept quiet about Madison.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel was reviewing some documents in his office. All he could think of was how he
could settle the negotiation as quickly as possible.
He nced at the time printed on the ticket and saw that it ended at ten.
I can probably rush over….
Meanwhile, Christina stared at the ticket in her hands disappointed!
Music sounded from within the venue as the people crowding at the door started to head in.
“Hi! What a coincidence! Are you here to watch the fashion show too?” A man’s gentle voice rang out
beside her car.

When Christina raised her head, she saw Francis handsome face. “Why are you here?”
Francis waved the ticket in his hands and replied with a chuckle, “I’m here to watch the fashion show.”
What a coincidence!
As it was quite a small and niche fashion show, people who were not so involved in the industry would
not watch it.
“Let’s go! The show is about to start. Before Christina could return to her senses, Francis grabbed her
wrist and pulled her into the venue.
They sat down at a suitable spot after entering.
Soon, the fashion show started. It was obvious how creative the designers were. With the singer who
was specially invited to perform, the atmosphere was extremely lively.
Christina thought that Francis would merely attend the show briefly and leave after uploading a few
pretty pictures on social media. As they watched the models strut past them, he said coolly. “The
design elements of this model’s outfit are quite decent. If it’s designed as an individual product, it’ll look
nice with a white shirt.”
For some reason, Christina suddenly felt that he was a like–minded friend who had eye for the
highlights at the fashion show.
Nodding, she replied, “I like the design and styling of the third outfit. Thebination of navy blue with
dark orange is really ssy. It’s good for professional outfits.”
As the two of them chatted happily, the initially boring fashion show became intriguing.
When the fashion show ended, they walked toward the exit together.
“I didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable about fashion,” remarked Christina with a smile.
The corners of Francis lips lifted as a confident gaze appeared in his eyes. “Well, I’m the trendiest
celebrity, after all”
While other celebrities might not make the cut, Francis definitely deserved to be considered one of the
top celebrities.
Not only did he have an alluring face, but he also had fair skin and narrow dark eyes that sparkled like
obsidian. With his strong build and long legs, it was like heaven had blessed him with those good looks.
Francis suggested, “There’s a spring fashion show by a famous brand at the central exhibition hall next
month. Are you interested in watching it together?”
“Sure! I was just thinking of having a break recently,” agreed Christina.
As there were a lot of people exiting at the same time, someone bumped into Christina identally.
Losing her bnce, she toppled into Francis‘ arms.
He subconsciously shielded Christina’s head and warned hostilely, “Look where you’re going
The person turned around and nced at Francis. As he was wearing a mask, all that was revealed
was that cold gaze of his.
“Sorry, mumbled the person before striding away.
Christina regained her bnce and gently left his embrace. “I’m fine. You should hide yourself! that
others won’t discover you”
It was lucky that the man earlier did not take a closer look. Otherwise, he would have discovered
Francis identity.
If someone spotted such a famous celebrity, it would attract huge crowds and lead to a lot of
congestion. By then, it would be impossible for them to leave.
Narrowing his eyes, Francis asked with a smile, “Why? Are you worried about me?”
“Nonsense! I just don’t want to appear on the news and be attacked by your fans.” Christina sighed
helplessly.
As an avid reader of entertainment news, she would regrlye across articles regarding Francis.
As long as he had a coboration with a female celebrity, his fans would unleash a barrage of attacks
on her online.
Regardless of how gorgeous the female lead was, Francis fans would never concede easily. Hence,
there were many instances of wars breaking out between the fans of both parties.
If someone snapped a picture of her attending a fashion show with Francis, someongwould definitely
wreck her the next day.
It was terrifying to even think about it.
Francis raised his hand and stroked her head gently. With his eyes filled with affection, he said with a
smile, “Don’t be scared. I won’t let such things drag you down.”
This little girl looks so adorable when she’s anrious. Her cheeks are puffing out like little buns. I really
want to bite them.
While the two of them stood at the exit, the streemps shone on them, casting two long shadows that
were so close to one another that it seemed quite romantic.
Christina shrank back to avoid his hand. Before she could say anything, a ck shadow appeared in
front of her. Soon, a fistnded heavily on Francis‘ face.
Even though he had trained before, Francis still got the full blow of the punch, having been caught off
guard. Losing his bnce, he fell onto the ground.
Francis red at the person who hit him and roared, “Are you out of your mind, Nathaniel?”
“I’ve already warned you. You brought this upon yourself.” Nathaniel wiped his hands with a
handkerchief before tossing it onto Francis body as if it was a piece of trash.
His sharp gaze was like daggers piercing Francis‘ flesh.
Themotion between both of them attracted quite a few curious nces from others. Christina
quickly returned to her senses. Afraid that someone would recognize Francis, she stretched out her
hand to help him up. “Don’t create a ruckus in public. It’ll be bad if someone takes a picture of us.”
The moment Francis hand touched Christina’s fingertips, someone pped his hand away.
“Who allowed you to touch her?” Nathaniel pulled Christina behind him. Her thin body almost toppled
over before she managed to regain her bnce.
He had rushed over after finishing the discussion. To his surprise, he caught the two of them acting so
intimately.
There was no way he would not be angry.
Christina could sense the tense atmosphere. It was as if there was gunpowder scattered in the air,
threatening to explode at the drop of a pin.
She tugged the corner of Nathaniel’s shirt and said in the gentlest tone possible. “You’ve
misunderstood, Nathaniel. We bumped into each other coincidentally at the fashion show.”
Their rtionship had always been quite tense. Every time they met, a fight would always break out. It
was more serious this time, with Nathaniel actually throwing a punch.
Francis stood up. His dark hair was slightly disheveled, and his mask had dropped to the side. There
was a tinge of blood at the corners of his lips, his bloodshot eyes making him look like a wild wolf about
to go on a rampage.
Aplicated look appeared in his eyes when he nced at Christina. Her watery eyes sparkled as if
she had just suffered from a huge shock.
Francis frowned. “What do you take Christina for? There’s nothing between us. Are you so anxious
because you aren’t confident in yourself or because you know that she doesn’t like you at all?”
His words of provocation immediately ignited Nathaniel’s fury.
Their expressions were equally cold, with neither of them willing to take a step back.
Nathaniel clenched his fists, feeling like all the blood in his body was boiling. “If there’s nothing between
you two, why did you put your hand on her head? Why are both of you standing so close to each
other? Don’t use your tricks from the entertainment industry on her!”
