Let Me Stay The Night Novel (Christina and Nathaniel)

Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Amending The Divorce Settlement Agreement

Christina’s heart felt like it’d been pounded by a blunt object.

Countless girls had pursued the dashing figure before her.

Brayden stared soulfully into the eyes of the ingenue before him as he anticipated her answer.

Christina recalled the night Brayden had heard of the news that she was married at the bar. She could. tell from his disappointed gaze that he minded greatly.

Christina imperceptibly exhaled to calm herself down before lifting her eyes once more. They were wiped clean from any remnants of dismay. “Thank you, Brayden. But Lonly see you as a brother.”

Brayden’s eyes widened as he struggled to come up with a reply.

Christina forced herself to appear relaxed, her eyes lighting up as she smiled. “I’m sure you’ve learned that night that I’m married now. My husband and I are deeply in love, and my heart and body belong. to him solely.

She accentuated the words “body” and “soul”.

Brayden would have to be a fool to fail to grasp what Christina was implying. She was politely rejecting

his advances.

Moreover, he wasn’t the type to become a homewrecker.

Brayden sighed lightly. “I’m sorry for disturbing you.”

At that, he turned to leave dejectedly.

The pace of his footsteps was unhurried. His shadow contrasted starkly with the bright surroundings as the sun’s rays beat down on him.
