Chapter 456 Adapting To New Identity
Fifteen minutester, Azure’s car arrived at a small alley.
It wasn’t until Christina saw her grandmother stepping out of the vehicle that she approached the
automobile.
“Grandma.” She threw herself into Azure’s arms, her heart still pounding. That was too close. If I had
remained captured, I’d be imprisoned in Scenic Garden Manor again.
“Why are you this frightened, my child? Come, let’s talk inside the car.” Without dy, Azure brought
the younger woman into the vehicle before it drove away.
Through the rearview mirror, Christina watched the alley gradually vanish from her sight and sighed in
relief.
“Why are you alone? Where are the children?” inquired Azure caringly.
A cold look swirled in Christina’s calm eyes. Tightening her grip, she answered, “We’ll go back first. In
the future, we’lle back and pick them up.”
Azure patted her granddaughter’s hand. “I’ll do whatever you wish, my dear.”
At the same time, Nathaniel returned to the condominium but couldn’t find Christina anywhere.
I see her luggage, which means she left without returning here. Grimacing, he felt as if powerful waves
were crashing against his body.
Sebastian approached him and reported, “The bodyguards searched the whole ce with me. We
can’t find her.”
Narrowing his eyes, Nathaniel thought, She fled, then? Well, as long as the children are still at my side,
she’s not going anywhere. “Bring the children back to Scenic Garden Manor.”
Meanwhile, a beam of sunlightnded inside the study within Yeatder Vi at Hallsbay. There, Christina
received a picture from a private detective. So, Lucas and Cam were brought back to Scenic Garden
Manor by Nathaniel. He even transferred them to a different, aristocratic kindergarten. It seems they’re
busy with homework every day.
She brushed her finger on the screen. Wait for me, Darlings. I’ll grow stronger and bring you two to my
side.
Suddenly, Azure knocked on the door and entered the room with the share transfer document. “Once
you put your signature on this paper, thirty percent of Gibson Corporation’s shares will be yours. With
that, you’ll be the biggest shareholder in thepany.”
Without hesitation, Christina put her signature on the document as she desperately needed money.
After all, whoever could provide the children with a better environment was more likely to win their
custody.
The difference between Christina’s and Nathaniel’s status was too significant. Therefore, if she couldn’t
rapidly close that gap, she could never snatch the children’s custody from him.
Azure watched Christina sign before handing the document to thetter. “From this moment onward,

you’re thergest shareholder in Gibson Corporation. I hope you’ll lead thepany to greater
heights.”
“I will do my best, Grandma.” Christina nodded.
Abruptly, urgent footsteps disturbed the tender moment in the study.
When Anya saw the signed document, her eyes almost popped from her skull. “How can you hand all
the shares to Christina, Grandma?” Now that Christina’s the biggest shareholder in Gibson
Corporation, she can be the CEO! Doesn’t that mean she can do whatever she wants to me in the
company?
With a serious expression, Azure answered, “This is what Christina deserves.” I took Yerek’s shares
away, leaving only three percent behind.
Anya was upset. “Christina’s just a designer, Grandma. There’s no way she knows how to run a
company!” How can someone who has never learned a thing about business management helm such a
bigpany?
Patting her shoulder, Azure replied, “She can learn. With your help, she’ll definitely be able to take
good care of thepany.”
Me? Helping Christina? What kind of joke is that? Then again, so what if Christina’s entering the
company? I’ll find a way to kick her out! Anya stifled her reaction so her grandmother wouldn’t notice
her true thoughts and narrowed her eyes at Christina. “Christina, I’m very experienced as I’ve been the
vice CEO of thepany for almost four years. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask me
about it.”
Christina spotted the cold look in her sister’s eyes. “I will.”
Meanwhile, Azure was contended to see the sisters getting along with each other. “With you sisters
working hard with each other, the Gibson family will no doubt reach a greater height.”
Christina left the study and returned to her room to read thepany document. I don’t have time to
waste. I need to adapt to my new identity as soon as possible. The children are still waiting for me at
Scenic Garden Manor.
Lucas and Cam were unhappy that their mother disappeared after they were brought to Scenic
Garden Manor.
They cried for their mother the whole day. Additionally, they refused to drink or eat, worrying Raymond,
With no other choice, Raymond sought help from Nathaniel.
It’s been twelve hours. Christina didn’t call even once to ask about the kids. Nathaniel narrowed his
pursed lips. When did she be that ruthless? I’m really surprised.
eyes
with
Raymond asked in a worried tone, “Will Mrs. Hadley never return?”
A gloomy vibe enveloped Nathaniel as he stood up. “She’ll return.”
Then he exited the study and headed downstairs.
Lucas and Cam sat on the couch grumpily, believing their father was why their mother disappeared.
After all, she was smiling when they went to buy toys earlier.
When Lucas saw his father approaching, he leaped from the couch and hugged thetter’s leg. “I want
Mommy, Daddy!”
“Daddy, does Mommy not want me anymore?” Cam had always looked adorable. However, when
she furrowed her eyebrows with teary eyes, she appeared even more sympathetic.
Nathaniel carried the children. “You’re both too adorable for Mommy to abandon you. She’s just busy
with worktely. Once she has finished her work, she’ll return.”
“Really?” The kids stared at him earnestly.
He nodded. “Of course. You two better eat well, or else Mommy will scold you when she returns and
sees how thin you two have be.”
His words sessfully convinced them. While hugging his father’s neck, Lucas smiled. “We want
Daddy to eat with us!”
“I will.” Nathaniel pecked his children’s cheeks and brought them to the dining hall.
After dinner, he tucked them in. He then returned to his study to continue his work until midnight.
Nathaniel spent his following days busy taking care ofpany matters and the children.
A monthter, a red Jaguar drove into Scenic Garden Manor. After the car was parked, the driver
opened the door.
Madison exited the vehicle in a strapless red gown. Peering at the building, she grinned and stepped
into it.
When she did, she saw the children ying with toy blocks in the living room. I should improve my
rtionship with them so we’ll get along better in the future.
She approached them, beaming. “Cam, Lucas, what are you two ying?”
