Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 387 Everyone Has One 

“Mr. Lucas, this is very urgent! Would you please help a brother out?” The technical director tried to get in good with Lucas.

To the technical director’s surprise, Lucas replied nonchalantly, “I know I have a sister, but I never knew I had a brother.”

“Uh… I…” The technical director was tongue-tied.

Sebastian, who was standing nearby, was holding back his laughter.

“Mr. Lucas, I can offer to do your homework for you. I just need you to analyze something for me and give me an idea of how I can find a solution,” the technical director said.

The technical director continued trying to convince Lucas, but all Lucas cared about was what the technical director said about helping him with his homework.

“Can you really do my homework for me?” Lucas looked surprised.

Right then, Sebastian tugged at the technical director’s shirt. “Hey, stop it.”

“I don’t need you to fix the issue for me, Mr. Lucas. I just need you to tell me what to do,” the technical - director uttered.

Lucas was sick of doing his homework and dealing with all those words. Seeing that there was still a lot left to complete, he scoffed and said, “That’s easy. You have a deal.”

For the next half an hour, Lucas was busy studying the program’s issue on the couch while the technical director focused on doing the boy’s homework at the desk.

Lucas soon found all the problems, and he used Sebastian’s phone to list down all the problems in the form of an audio recording.

“Fix the program according to the steps I listed in the audio recording. Feel free to come and ask me tomorrow if you have difficulties understanding them,” Lucas said.

Sebastian was keeping a close eye on Lucas when the latter did the audio recording, and he was astonished. Although I don’t quite understand some of the words Mr. Lucas said, his thought process is spectacular. I forgot how talented Mr. Lucas is ever since Mrs. Hadley banned him from using technological devices!

“Understood. Thank you, Mr. Lucas,” the technical director said.

“No worries.” Lucas waved his hand casually.

Afterward, Lucas walked toward the desk and saw the messy handwriting on his homework. Annoyed, he said, “What’s with your handwriting? It looks worse than a child’s! Have you never attended school before?”

“Mr. Lucas, I didn’t write tidily because I was worried Mrs. Hadley might catch us red-handed. What if she thinks someone did it for you?” The technical director looked troubled.

Lucas then rolled his eyes at the director and mocked, “I think you’re dumber than a child. Your handwriting is so bad that I think my mommy will ask me to redo my homework.”

With that, Lucas chased the two men away and continued working on the rest of his homework.

In the late hours of the night, Christina entered the study and found Lucas sprawling on the desk. sleeping.

The sight melted and broke her heart at the same time. I want the kids to take their time growing up and enjoy their childhood, but I don’t want them to waste their time.

Christina then checked Lucas’ homework. Not bad! I knew he could do it.

She then carefully carried Lucas into her arms and felt his tender body pressing up against hers. The young boy’s sweet fragrance enveloped her.

Christina brought Lucas back to the kids’ room and tucked both of her children in.

After planting a light kiss on their foreheads, she exited the room.

Before the kids went to school the next day, Christina warned Lucas against fooling around in the kindergarten.

“I know, Mommy. I’ll be a good boy.” Lucas winked mischievously.

Christina smiled, amused by the boy’s adorable manner. She only left after watching the twins step inside.

Upon arriving at the company, Christina started working.

During her free time, she shopped for new furniture. After experiencing the horrific incident the last time around, she decided to get a fingerprint lock just to be extra safe. She even resorted to superstitious methods and bought some candles and sea salt that would bring good luck.

As soon as she received the things she had ordered, she rushed out of her office. However, since she was in too much of a rush, she ended up bumping into someone on her way out.

Nathaniel swiftly held her slim waist. “Why are you in such a rush? Where are you going?”

“I… I’m going back to the condominium.” Christina gripped the bag in her hand tightly.

“I’ll come with you,” he said.

Fifteen minutes later, they both arrived at the condominium.

Christina changed into her indoor slippers and placed another pair of men’s slippers in front of Nathaniel.

“I didn’t buy them for you. They were given as gifts when I shopped at the mall,” she explained before entering the condominium. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Nathaniel changed into the slippers, which fit his feet very well, and walked in after her.

Shortly after, Christina began lighting the candles she bought and sprinkling sea salt on the floorboards, walls, and furniture.

“What are you doing?” Nathaniel asked in puzzlement. Why is she acting like a cult member?

“I’m repelling bad luck. I haven’t done this after moving in,” Christina muttered.

Nathaniel chuckled in response. “If you think there’s bad luck here, why don’t you just move out? Scenic Garden Manor is big enough, no? If you don’t like staying there, you can move to another property. After all, I have plenty of properties under my name.”

Christina wasn’t interested in his offer. I like this condominium. Although there’s been a tiny u. it’s nothing! can’t resolve.

Once she was done sprinkling sea salt all over the condominium, the went into one of the rooms to tidy things up.

Nathaniel, on the other hand, sat on the couch and worked on his phone.

Later that afternoon. Nathaniel went in to check on Christina, who was still busying about in the room

Christina was decorating the children’s room. There was a bunk bed, a pink desk, a blue desk, and a wardrobe.

She also hung up some paintings that Camila and Lucas liked.

“What is this?” Nathaniel pointed at a yarn ball.

“I’m using that to knit scarfs for the kids. It’s getting cold out there.” Christina made clothes for the children all the time, but she had never knitted them a scarf.

“Does everyone get one?” Nathaniel asked, implying that he wanted one as well.

In response, Christina shrugged and replied, “I only have pink and blue yarn. Neither suits you.”

With that, she kept the yarn ball in the wardrobe. “Let’s return to the office.”

The couple arrived at the office and went their separate ways upon exiting the elevator.

At that moment, Rayne was seen serving someone a cup of coffee in the office. “Sir, here’s your black coffee. Would you like some sugar to go with it?”

“No, thank you.” The man was wearing a black suit, his demeanor elegant and polite.

In response, Rayne smiled bashfully and took a few steps backward. However, she kept her gaze fixed on the man’s handsome face. He looks even more charming than celebrities!

Right then, Christina entered the office and met the man’s gaze. For some reason, she found the look in his eyes somewhat unsettling.

“Who is this?” Christina asked.

“This gentleman here said he came to see you, but… I forgot to ask about the purpose of his visit.” Rayne flashed an embarrassed smile.

Evidently, Rayne was too focused on the man’s looks, so she forgot to ask the important questions.

The man then put his coffee aside and rose to his feet. “May we have a conversation in your office?” he asked Christina.

“Sure.” Christina walked into her office and sat in her office chair. “May I know your name, Sir?”

“Gibson. Yerek Gibson,” the man answered.

Christina knew that name. I investigated Gibson Corporation after Francis mentioned that name to me. Yerek is the CEO of Gibson Corporation and the Outstanding Youth of the Year.

“How may I help you, Mr. Gibson?” Despite wearing a smile, Christina found herself growing wary and cautious.

Yerek whipped out a document and put it on Christina’s desk. “I know you’re a famous designer, Ms. Steele. Gibson Corporation would like to collaborate with you.”
