Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 581 Consequences

When Nigel’s intentions were exposed, rage colored his countenance.

Putting on airs as an elder, he reprimanded, “How can you say that about your father and grandmother. Christina?

Even if they did something wrong, they’re still your elders, and you shouldn’t hold a grudge against them.

Everything they did, they did it for your own good. In the future, the Gibson family will rest in your hand. As a

member of the family, don’t you think you should contribute as well?”

I’ve been alive for over twenty over years, and this is the first time I’ve seen someone phrase their desire for

money in such a lofty manner. Christina mocked, “You’re the head of the Gibson family right now. If your words are

true, will you willingly hand your position over to me? I know you won’t. After all, you already answered that

question explicitly in the past.”

Nigel’s grimace intensified. “You’ve misunderstood me, Christina. Back then, I objected to the power transfer

because you weren’t experienced enough. Managing a family business isn’t a child’s game. One small mistake and

massive issues will surface.”

Christina refilled her glass of fruit juice and took a sip. Its sweet, refreshing taste washed away the bitterness in her

throat.

“You may be right, but even with your wealth of experiences, Gibson Corporation is still failing under your

leadership. I heard it’s now on the verge of bankruptcy. Even after selling family properties and luxury cars, you still

can’t stave off the company’s ill fate. The way she spoke was nonchalant, as though she was an outsider, and the

survival of the Gibson family mattered not to her.

Christina’s bluntness embarrassed Nigel further.

Nigel was willing to lower himself and seek Christina for help in order to protect his hard-earned throne. glory, and

wealth for the rest of his life. He wanted to prove to everyone that he wasn’t any worse than Timothy.

The Hadley family was, at that moment, the top dog of the business industry. Hence, they could aid the desperate

Gibson family in innumerable ways. For example, granting the Gibson Corporation a project with a multi-billion

investment. If the company could convince Nathaniel to collaborate with them, their crisis would be resolved.

However, Timothy and Azure were too sly and harsh to the Hadley family back then. It was why Nathaniel held a

grudge against the family. No matter how Nigel tried to ingratiate Nathaniel, the latter refused to meet with the

former.

Therefore, after contemplating his options, Nigel decided to approach Christina.

She can keep denying my request, but she can’t ignore the fact that the blood of the Gibson family flows in her

veins. Suppressing the humiliation, Nigel remarked, “I admit that I’m not competent enough, which is why Gibson

Corporation is in a pinch. However, I’m not solely responsible for this outcome. You played a part in the company’s

downfall as well.”

Christina arched her eyebrow, staring at Nigel and waiting for him to continue.

“If you had offered a few words of advice when Nathaniel canceled all collaborations with Gibson Corporation,

things would’ve been fine. Gibson Corporation wouldn’t have fallen to its current state. Nathaniel even employed

dirty tricks to force other companies not to cooperate with Gibson Corporation To deal with the Gibson family to

teach us a lesson. As such, the company couldn’t find any new partners, and its capital chain was severed. That is

why the company has no choice but to beg Nathaniel for help. Christina, the tragedy of Gibson Corporation is

Nathaniel’s fault. Your parent’s accident back then is intricately tied to the Hadley family. Stop being stubborn, and

don’t allow Nathaniel to continue to fool you! Never forget that romantic love will never be as precious as your

mother’s sacrifice! All the glory and wealth you enjoy today was the result of your mother’s death!”

An icy expression was set on Christina’s face as she squeezed the glass in her hand, so much so that the veins on

the back of her hand bulged.

Bang!

She slammed the glass on the coffee table, drawing attention from many of the guests nearby. However, she

ignored them.

“Are you threatening me with my mother’s matter?” She sneered overbearingly. “The truth about what transpired

five years ago still hadn’t been discovered. Do you have proof that the Hadley family is responsible for that

incident? You insinuate they are cruel and immoral, yet you’re secretly trying to get their help to make a comeback.

One mustn’t be too hypocritical. In fact, I suspect you might have a part to play in that accident. After all, you were

the one who would benefit the most from my parent’s accident.”

Nigel’s pupils constricted as he scowled. “What nonsense are you talking about, Christina? I’m your uncle! Your

father is my older brother! Why would I harm my own family for personal benefit? If you slander me any further,

don’t blame me for burning bridges with you!”

Christina covered her mouth as she chuckled and responded casually. “If you think I’m speaking nonsense, why are

you so angry? You’re just making others think that you’re guilty.”

With reddened eyes, Nigel glared at her. “In any case, you’d better consider my words. Even if you don’t care about

Gibson Corporation, you still need to think about your parents.”

He did his best to protect his dignity until the end and retreated swiftly before more people paid attention. to their

argument.

The smile on Christina’s face slowly faded, replaced by amusement and mockery. Nigel had some nerve to mention

my deceased mother when he failed to persuade me by using Gibson Corporation. Even if my father had personally

come to lecture me, I probably wouldn’t have shown him respect. Yet, Nigel thought he could gain my support. How

ridiculous!

With a grimace, she emptied her glass of juice.

After shaking off the guests, Nathaniel hastily marched toward Christina with furrowed eyebrows. “What did Nigel

talk to you about?”

The edges of Christina’s lips curved upward. “It’s nothing serious. He was asking me to help him save Gibson

Corporation. However, I declined. I disliked people bringing up familial love to threaten me.” Even though I avoided

mentioning the part about Mom, I doubt I can hide that bit from someone as smart as Nathaniel. Once Nigel is

driven to desperation, he’ll find a way to meet with Nathaniel. When the time comes, Nathaniel will solve the

problem, so I’m not worried.

In response, Nathaniel sneered, “Nigel has some nerve to threaten my woman.”

Christina didn’t want Nigel to ruin her plan for the night, so she said. “Let’s forget about him. Where’s Winston? I

don’t see him anywhere.”

“He’s here, waiting for us in the lounge.”

As she set her glass down somewhere, a sly and excited look flashed past her eyes. “We should visit him quickly. I’m

almost full from drinking fruit juices for the whole night.”
