Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 373 Reuniting With Bailey 

“The fact that you know Mr. Fernando is here just goes to show you’re an obsessive fan! We come across people like you far too often!”

“Penelope is the only stylist here in this company, so she must be lying! We should kick her out!”

Just like that, Christina was swarmed by the group of staff who surrounded her.

Penelope Lacefield reached out and shoved Christina amidst the chaos, causing her to lose her balance. and fall backward.

Her palms were instantly cut open the moment they hit the sandy ground.

“Get lost, all of you!” a man shouted coldly from behind.

Everyone froze and turned around, only to see Francis making his way toward them.

Despite his gloomy expression, he looked like a foreign prince with his white dress shirt, puffy cuffs, jewel necklaces, and curled hair that had been dyed into a bluish-green color.

The icy-cold look on his face changed the moment he saw Christina’s bleeding palms. “Are you

The staff realized they had made a huge mistake when they saw how Francis treated Christina. With a gloomy look on her face, Christina pulled her hands back and said, “I don’t think the work culture” here is suitable for me.”

Given her current status, there were plenty of people out there who would willingly get in line just to hire her.

As such, she had no need to put up with such nonsense at all.

“It was her fault for not making that clear. None of us intended for this to happen. There have been far too many obsessive fans lately, so our response was perfectly justified,” Penelope protested..

Christina shot her an icy-cold glare. Wow… This woman sure knows how to twist the facts!

“Apologize to her,” Francis ordered coldly.

The looks on the staff’s faces turned gloomy when they heard that. However, as reluctant as they were, none of them dared disobey Francis’ orders. “Sorry…” they muttered through clenched teeth.

“Come with me,” Francis said as he grabbed Christina by the hand and dragged her inside.

The staff began complaining the moment the two of them left. “Who the f*ck is that woman? How dare she behave so arrogantly?”

Francis then retrieved a first aid kit and carefully treated Christina’s wounds. “I’m sorry. It’s my fault for not briefing everyone beforehand.”

“If you feel guilty for what happened, then how about you tell me what I want to know before we sign this contract?” Christina asked calmly.

After treating her wounds, Francis handed her a contract that he had prepared in advance and said, “You’ve become a lot smarter than before. I’ll tell you after you sign the contract.”

Christina took the contract over from him and read through every term in great detail. Apart from the penalty for breach of contract, which was billions, it looked no different from any other contract

“Did you make a mistake with the penalty amount for breach of contract?” she asked.

“Nope That amount is inclusive of the money for the information I’m selling you. I don’t know if you would bail on me, so I’m going to need some insurance Nathaniel can totally afford to pay for this, so

you don’t have to worry about a thing. If you do breach our contract, I can use that money to go after Nathamel. I’ll be honest with you here. I’ve been saving up a lot of money over the past few years, and 1 have quite enough to go against him.” Francis said nonchalantly with his arms crossed.

Christina kept her gaze fixated on him as she hesitated.

“Of course, you don’t have to sign the contract if you don’t want to. I’m not going to force you into doing anything.” Francis continued and reached out to take the contract back.

Christina quickly pulled the contract away from him and proceeded to sign her name on it.

“There, can you tell me what I want to know now?” she asked while handing it over to him.

Francis’s eyes lit up slightly when he saw her name on the contract.

He was about to say something when a staff knocked on the door and reminded him, “All preparations are complete, Mr. Fernando. We can start the shoot anytime.”

“Got it.” Francis put the contract away and shifted his gaze back toward Christina as he asked, “Do you mind if we get this job done first?”

“No, I don’t,” Christina replied.

Francis then explained the procedure to her. They were going to shoot a commercial for a skincare product, and Penelope had already prepared the outfits and hairstyles beforehand.

“I want you to come up with new designs and hairstyles in five minutes,” Francis said before walking off to get his makeup done.

Christina glanced at the outfits that Penelope had prepared, but she did not find any of those to her liking-

Instead, she spent one minute looking up information on the product and the commercial’s concept before selecting the clothes for her outfits.

“I heard you graduated from some lesser-known institute. I wouldn’t embarrass myself here if I were you!” Penelope warned her.

“I don’t need you to judge my professionalism,” Christina replied with her expression as cold as ice.

She was so calm with her response that Penelope had no idea how to counter her at all.

Eventually, all Penelope could do was shoot her a vicious glare before storming off.

Christina picked out a suit jacket with no lining on the inside and paired it with a pair of casual pants matching color.

She then presented the outfit to Francis and said, “Here’s, your first set of outfit. Go ahead and put it on.” The makeup artist standing next to them felt really displeased with the way she spoke to Francis.

Reuniting With Bailey

Ugh! How dare she talk to our dream man like that?

Francis simply picked up the clothes and made his way into the changing room without saying anything

Everyone else around them got mad at Christina when they saw that.

What an insolent woman! Mr. Fernando is a nice guy who hardly scolds his subordinates, but that doesn’t give a stylist the right to be disrespectful toward him!

After changing into the outfit. Francis made his way over to the spot that had been decorated beforehand. The photographer then took a few pictures and confirmed that the lighting was okay.

After that. Christina walked up to him with a scarf and carefully wrapped it around his neck.

The black scarf had white letters in Anglandurn printed on it, which helped form a bit of contrast against his fully-black outfit.

The outfit revealed his delicate collarbones, which made him look all the more sexier.

The photo shoot went by rather smoothly, and the sky was already dark by the time they were done with

Christina decided she would come to see Francis the next day to continue their discussion, so she packed her things and got ready to leave.

“I’ll give you a ride home.” Francis didn’t have time to change out of his outfit, so he still had the scent of perfume on him.

“That won’t be necessary. My car is here.”

Christina had contacted the driver earlier to come and pick her up.

“It’s late, and you probably won’t have dinner waiting for you at home. How about having dinner with met before heading back?” Francis asked as he followed behind her.

“No, thanks. I have an appointment.” Christina said as she walked out the door and got into Raymond’s car.

Francis let out a sigh as he watched the car leave the set.

“Will you be going home, Mrs. Hadley?” the driver asked.

“No. Take me to the bar in the city.” Christina was supposed to meet Bailey there. Besides, she was in a bad mood, and the kids weren’t home, so she didn’t feel like going back to Scenic Garden Manor at

all.

Half an hour later, the car pulled up outside the entrance.

Christina could hear the sound of people chatting and laughing the moment she entered the bar. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’ve missed you so much, Christina! I can’t believe you just upped and left for four years! That was so uncool!” Bailey exclaimed as she wrapped her arms around Christina and clung to her like a koala bear.

Christina had left in a real hurry back then. Fearing that Nathaniel would be able to track her down, she did not contact Bailey at all.
