Chapter 747 The Best Senior
The person who spoke was Christina. Sebastian couldn’t find a reason to refuse, so he stood up
awkwardly. “I don’t mind. I’ll attend to my work, then. I’ll leave you to your conversation.”
Victoria watched her boyfriend leave before turning to look at Christina resentfully and started howling
as shey dead on the couch.
“Christina, of all the times you could’ve shown up, why must you choose the moment I’m sharing an
intimate moment with my man? Are you doing this on purpose?”
Christina walked over and pulled Victoria up. After thetter was properly seated, she smiled
apologetically. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to disturb you two, but it’s only because you two didn’t close the
door when getting intimate. Besides, you were too engrossed that you didn’t hear me knocking on the
door.”
Victoria blushed and gazed at Christina dispiritedly. “Christina, what do you need from me?”
Christina üttered seriously, “Rayne and I had a discussion. The studio’s first fashion show will be
scheduled for the day after tomorrow at Global Shopping Center in the city center. The mall is usually
crowded on Saturdays, so we can achieve good publicity. Since the main theme of this fashion show is
focused on you, I wanted to know your opinion. If you think it’s not feasible, we can think of other
ideas.”
At the mention of work-rted issues, Victoria put away her carefree demeanor. “You’re my boss, so
the final say is up to you. My creations are alreadypleted, aside from thecking of some
essories. However, I’ve found a sponsor. The jewelry is being delivered to Jadeborough as we
speak. Barring any idents, it should arrive tomorrow.
Victoria regarded the fashion show with great importance, so she invested a lot of effort and energy in
her designs, striving to astonish the public with her works and re-establish the reputation of Christina’s
brand.
“All right. In that case, I’ll have Rayne prepare for the rehearsal of the fashion show,” Christina said.
Having finished talking about business, Victoria cheerfully showed Christina the wedding theme on her
tablet, boasting, “Sebastian arranged this for me. I’m going to be Mrs. Taggart soon!”
Christina was genuinely happy for Victoria and uttered wholeheartedly, “Congrattions on having your
wishe true in the near future.”
“Speaking of which, you and Mr. Hadley are our matchmakers. How about I let you design my wedding
dress at that time? What do you say?” Victoria was worried Christina would reject her, so she hurriedly
wrapped her arms around Christina’s and acted coy. “Please agree to this, Christina!”
Naturally, Christina wasn’t going to refuse. She even felt honored to be tasked with that responsibility.
“That’s enough. You’re making me dizzy with all the shaking. You’re my junior, so I have no reason to
say
Victoria excitedly pecked Christina on the cheek, almost lifting thetter and twirling on the spot in
exhration. “Thank you, Christina. You’re the best!”
Christina flicked Victoria’s forehead. “First, you have to do well for the fashion show. I’m counting on
you to garner poprity for the studio.”
Victoria chuckled and blinked her eyes knowingly. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely give you a huge surprise at
the fashion show in three days.”
“I have faith in your capabilities.” Christina responded sincerely.

Subsequently, the banquet ended sessfully. Exhausted, Christina returned to Scenic Garden Manor
As Lucas and Cam had to go to school the next day, Charlie and Julia brought them back to the
Hadley residence.
Charlie and Timothy were equally skilled in ying chess. After their game resulted in a tie, the two
agreed on the time for their next match before parting ways,
After taking a bath, Christinay in Nathaniel’s arms, keeping himpany and chatting with him as he
sorted out work-rted emails.
“Your dad and mine seem to get along well.” A rxed expression spread across Christina’s
countenance as she recalled Charlie and Timothy’s reluctance to leave the banquet venue earlier.
“They have amon hobby. It’ll also benefit your dad’s health for him to have someone to
apany him after he moves to Jadeborough.” Nathaniel held Christina with one hand while using
his other hand to touch theptop’s trackpad, dexterously switching between software interfaces. “You
can find some time to arrange a gathering to strengthen the rtionship between our families.”
Christina hadn’t seriously considered that matter before, but now that Nathaniel had reminded her, she
swiftly came up with an idea. “Once I’m done with the fashion show in three days, I’ll arrange a
gathering for both our families.”
Nathaniel closed hisptop with one hand, casually putting it away, andy down with Christina in his
embrace. “Is there anything I can help with regarding the fashion show?”
Christina replied, “No. Rayne has arranged everything. We also decided to host the event at Global
Shopping Center in the city center.”
“If I remember correctly, Global Shopping Center is a property under the Hadley family. If you face any
issue then, you can contact the person in charge of the mall at any time.” Nathaniel kissed her
forehead. “It’s gettingte. Let’s sleep.”
“Good night,” she chirped. The moment she shut her eyes, fatigue quickly overwhelmed her, and she
drifted off to sleep soon.
After ascertaining Christina was sound asleep, Nathaniel discreetly got up and left the bedroom.
Sebastian had been waiting in the living room downstairs for a while. When he saw Nathaniel
descending the stairs, he greeted, “Mr. Hadley.”
Nathaniel cut to the chase. “What’s Sheridan’s current stance?”
That afternoon, Sheridan had sent someone to seek cooperation with Nathaniel, offering very generous
terms with the intention of resolving the conflict between the Hadley and Stone families.
Nathaniel wasn’t a pushover. After browsing through the agreement, he turned the liaison officer away
and bluntly expressed his disinterest in the project Sheridan offered.
Sheridan thought Nathaniel was unsatisfied with the proposed revenue distribution, so he immediately
had someone draft another new agreement and deliver it to Nathaniel. However, the oue was the
same. Nathaniel rejected the proposition after taking just a nce at the document.
Sheridan was unable to fathom Nathaniel’s intention, so after carefully weighing the pros and cons, he
decided to talk to Nathaniel in person.
Nathaniel told Sheridan he would only agree to a face to face discussion under one condition Sheridan
had to first deal with the mess made by Barnaley and Anure and provide Timothy with a reasonable
exnation
With that, Sheridan cooled down considerably. Then, he ryed a message to Nathaniel, saying he
would take that matter seriously. Subsequently, there weren’t any more responses from Sheridan
Nathaniel was finally able to lure Sheridan into the trap he had meticulously spent a long time setting
up Since that matter concerned Christina, Nathaniel ced extra effort into ensuring its sess.
“Mr. Stone held a meeting with the senior executives overnight, probably preparing for how to maximize
his interest in the negotiation with you.”
“The Stone family is really full of cunning old foxes,” Nathaniel uttered derisively.
Sheridan had no intention to cooperate with the Hadley family, but for the sake of restoring the Stone
family’s reputation, he was making decisions against his own will.
Barnaby had been shrewd for most of his life, but he ultimately risked ruining the hard work of his entire
life because of an old lover.
Nathaniel figured it hadn’t been easy for Sheridan to hold on all by himself until now. Still, the business
world values abilities and tactics. Benevolence won’t bring any benefit. Besides, I’m not someone who
enjoys showing others kindness anyway.
“Snatch all the projects the Stone family is interested in. It looks like verbal warnings aren’t impactful
enough. We need to take some action to teach them a memorable lesson.”
