The fact that Nathaniel had been called the Grim Reaper wasn’t without any basis.
Anyone he targeted would never be able to escape his grasp.
“I’m not sad, Nathaniel. I just feel that it’s a shame.” Christina stared at him. “I had assumed that my
plan was perfect. Given how evil Anya is, I can’t believe that there’s someone out there willing to
protect her still.”
Anya was no longer the glamorous daughter of the Gibson family. In fact, she had nothing left and was
reduced to living in poverty and disgrace.
Consequently, Christina couldn’t, for the life of her, figure out what the mysterious person saw in Anya.
“The truth will definitely be revealed one day. Everything will make sense once we find out who her
mysterious benefactor is.” Nathaniel tried to come up with a solution for the dilemma she was in, “You
can monitor those who interacted with Anya before. There’s a good chance that one of them is her
protector.”
A person popped into Christina’s mind immediately. “Could Vladimir have interfered behind the
scenes?”
Nathaniel rejected the idea, “It can’t be him, as my men are monitoring the Specker family. Vladimir
knows very well what’s at stake and values the reputation of the Specker family more than his own life.
On top of that, he’s a man of virtue. Since he declared that he would stay out of the Gibson family’s
conflicts, he would definitely not cross the line.”
The only other suspect Christina could think of was Yerek.
Hence, she asked hesitantly, “Can it be Yerek?”
After giving the matter some thought, Nathaniel gave an ambiguous reply. “Anything can be possible.”
Before Christina had the chance to question further, Nathaniel elaborated, “Yerek has been desperately
looking for investors recently, but the results were dismal. He plans to sell the company Nigel left him to
raise cash. Therefore, he has met with some foreign investors at an overseas conference and is
seemingly close to them. Perhaps he is preparing to start a company with them overseas.”
Expanding his business overseas was undoubtedly the best path for Yerek to take.
After all, it was close to impossible for him to clean up the mess Nigel had left him.
“Let’s not talk about such topics anymore.” Christina changed the subject. “The studio’s renovations
have almost been completed. I feel like going to check out the place tomorrow.”
“Remember to take Lyle with you.” Nathaniel knew what she was up to, yet he wasn’t going to stop her
as long as she didn’t cross his threshold.
“Got it,” Christina replied in delight.
In the evening, Christina and Nathaniel had dinner at the Hadley residence. Lucas and Camila clung to
Christina and refused to leave her despite it being their bedtime.
After ending his chat with Charlie, Nathaniel returned to his bedroom from the study. The sight of Lucas
and Camila hugging their respective pillow and doll on his side of the bed caused his face to darken.
“Go sleep in your own room.” Grabbing the children with one hand each, he reprimanded them, “Both
of you are too noisy and will prevent Mommy from getting a good rest. Now that she’s carrying a baby,
she needs a place that’s absolutely quiet.”
The children struggled desperately with their limbs flailing in the air. Giving up upon realizing the futility
of their efforts, they declared in unison, “Mommy promised us that she would sleep with us tonight, so
you’ll have to sleep in the guest room, Daddy.”
Me? Sleep in the guest room? No way!
Ignoring the children’s vehement protest, Nathaniel carried them back to their room without breaking a
sweat.
“Both of you, stay here and behave,” Nathaniel ordered sternly before turning to leave.
With that, the children obeyed and remained in their room, staring blankly at each other.
A short while later, Nathaniel returned with their pillow and doll. He then proceeded to make their beds
and patted them.
“Now, be good and come to bed.”
Upon exchanging glances, Lucas and Camila stubbornly stood where they were when they saw the
defiance in each other’s eyes.
“Daddy, how can you insist on sleeping with Mommy when you’re an adult? Aren’t you embarrassed?”
Camila lectured.
Amused by her words, Nathaniel explained, “I’m different from the two of you. Mommy and I are
husband and wife. We are supposed to sleep with each other, but you’re not allowed to.”
Lucas pouted in response. “You’re really cunning, Daddy. You just want Mommy all for yourself.”
Nathaniel cocked a brow. “She’s mine after all.”
Clenching her fists, Camila fumed, “Mommy is your darling, while we’re Mommy’s darlings. Good things
should be shared, Daddy. You shouldn’t be unreasonable.”
Nathaniel gave Camila’s hair a tousle as he replied in a gentle tone, “That’s not how you use the
phrase. Certain things can never be shared. You’ll understand when you grow up. That said, there’s
one thing I need to clarify. Not only are both of you Mommy’s darlings, but you’re mine too.”
Nathaniel added affectionately, “So, don’t be angry about it. Can you go to bed now, my darlings?”
Elated over Nathaniel’s soothing words, the children climbed into bed obediently.
“Daddy, you’re not allowed to cancel the family holiday next month. Otherwise, Lucas and I will be
angry.” Camila grabbed Nathaniel’s pinkie as she sounded particularly serious.
Lucas chimed in, “That’s right. If you don’t keep your promise…”
Pondering for a long while, he was unable to find the words that would make him sound more
authoritative.
The curious Nathaniel probed further, “What will you do if I don’t?”
After some hesitation, Lucas declared, “I’ll get someone else to be my daddy.”
As the veins on his forehead began to throb, Nathaniel gritted out, “You won’t get the chance. Now, go
to bed.”
Sensing Nathaniel’s displeasure, both of them quickly hid their plump selves underneath their blankets.
Their reaction caused his anger to evaporate immediately. Smiling without a word, he tucked them in
before getting up to leave.
When Christina emerged from the shower to be greeted by the empty bed, the sight of the missing
children caused her to open the door curiously. Just as she was about to go out and look for them, she
saw Nathaniel on his way back.
The latter wrapped his arms around her and led her toward the bed. “It’s already late. Where are you
going?”
Christina answered candidly, “I was looking for Lucas and Camila. I promised to sleep with them
tonight.”
“They went back to their room to sleep.” When Lucas‘ words about how he wanted Christina to change
husbands echoed in Nathaniel’s mind, he couldn’t help but feel a squeeze in his heart. Thus, he asked
in a pitiful tone, “Christina, do you find me annoying? Is that why you don’t want to sleep with me and
insist on me sleeping in the guest room?”
Unsure about what was going through his mind, Christina decided to indulge his occasional silliness.
“What are you talking about, little Nathaniel? I would never find you annoying. Come on now, let’s see
you smile again.”
