A Crazy Night

Chapter 96

Julia’s face darkened drastically after she got questioned by her son. Taking Helen with her, she turned and exited the room.

As the room door closed again, Christina slumped onto her seat. I can’t afford to let similar situations happen again.

She abruptly stood up and pushed Nathaniel toward the door. “Don’t come in again until I complete. the gowns.”

Upon saying that, she shut the door without hesitation, completely cutting each other’s line of sight.

And just like that, Nathaniel was chased out of the room. Perhaps I’ve been worrying over nothing. Christina can probably manage. I’ll just be causing more trouble for her instead if I stay.

After mulling it over, he eventually left the Hadley residence.

Without any interruption, Christina was making rapid progress. Within a day, she finished sewing the fabrics together.

At night, she went to knock on Julia’s room door. “M Hadley, is it convenient for you to come our and try on the gowns now?”

As much as the gowns were tailor-made, they might need some amendments too. Christina wanted to ensure they fit Julia well before adding the embellishments.

Helen opened the door. “Please head over first. Mrs. Hadley will go over in a while.”

Christina nodded and returned to the tailor room.

Since she had the rare opportunity to take a break, she walked up to the window to view the scenery. The moonlight poured from the night sky, casting a layer of glistening glow on the jasmine flowers in the backyard.

Next to the jasmine flowers were some chamomile plants. But since it was the winter season, there were no flowers.

“I can try on the gowns now.”

Christina flinched in fright when she heard a sudden voice from behind her. She hastily walked over and said, “These three gowns are ready. Try them on first, and let me know if any parts don’t fit. I’ll make the necessary changes after.”

Julia hummed an acknowledgment and took the gowns to try on.

The first gown was deep blue color, made using velvet material. It was a shade that gave off a sense of healing and, at the same time, a mysterious feeling.

Julia thought it fit perfectly after wearing it, and even lelen praised, “Ms. Ada, you have excellent skills. It’s the first time I’ve come across someone who can grasp the cutting of clothing so perfectly the first

time.”

Unlike Ada’s technique, many designers would usually save some excess fabric during cutting for amendments at a later stage.

Christina still had confidence in herself. “I’ll add the embellishments next and sew on the jasmine. flowers.”

Julia was satisfied as well. However, she did not show her emotions and merely bobbed her head.

She consecutively tried on all three gowns, and there were no problems.

As Christina hung the gowns that Julia had tried back onto the racks, a growling sound suddenly broke. the silence in the room.

Christina looked at Helen, but the latter looked at Juli instead.

“Mrs. Hadley, you hardly had anything for dinner. How about I ask the chef to whip up something for you?”

Julia had been in a bad mood for the entire day after Nathaniel talked back to her that morning.

She had barely eaten anything during dinner.

Christina suggested, “I’m good at making desserts. How about I make some for you?” Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Julia glanced at her. The combination of the black mask and white dress on Christina gave off an odd vibe, but Julia was somewhat interested in her cooking skills.

She turned to leave without saying if she wanted to ca or not.

Helen, however, turned back with a smile. “We’ll be counting on you, then, Ms. Ada. Mrs. Hadley doesn’t like it too sweet. You can leave it after you’re done making it. I’ll bring it to Mrs. Hadley.”

With that, she turned and followed Julia out of the room.

The smile on Christina’s face faded. Helen is literally Mrs. Hadley’s confidante. She seems to be able to read her mind.

After making her way downstairs, she opened the fridge in the kitchen. There were many ingredients inside, including some dried jasmine flowers.

Christina made a small portion of jasmine panna cot, then made herself a plate of pasta before. returning to her room.

Shortly after she left, Helen took a serving of the panna cotta and brought it upstairs for Julia.

It was the first time Julia had seen such a novel desser Is Ada someone I knew in the past? How did she know I like jasmine flowers? Is it deliberate, or is it mere coincidence?

It was the weekend the next day. Christina sat before the sewing machine, preparing the embellishments she needed. Each gown had a unique style and design.

She had chosen a unique material, whereby she would have to slowly superpose the material on the gown to form the floral petals. After working on it diligently for the entire morning, she finally made a lifelike jasmine flower.

Right then. Madison, carrying all kinds of supplements, arrived downstairs.

Julia was pleased to see Madison’s presence. After all, she had quite a good impression of that young

lady all these years.

Sadly, for unknown reasons, Nathaniel loved opposing her.

Nathaniel had never liked the women Julia chose for him and would always go against her.

Madison passed the gifts to Helen and approached Julla with a wide smile. “I’m here, Mrs. Hadley. How have you been?”

Julia instructed the housekeeper to prepare some coffee before chatting with Madison. “Not much

difference. I’m still waiting to see when Nathaniel will chase that woman out of the house.”

Madison was well aware that Julia disliked Christina. That was why Julia would say those words without holding back.

That was precisely also why Madison felt that she still stood a chance.

Mrs. Hadley is Nathaniel’s mother, after all. Since she doesnt like Christina, Christina might get chased out of the house at any time. When that happens, my opportunity will come, won’t it?

Madison held Julia’s hand and said politely. “Don’t say that. Nathaniel will be upset if he hears that

She was trying to act sweet and lovely in front of Julia so that the latter would be more accepting of her in the future.

As expected, that method worked wonders on Julia. It’d be great if he’s upset. He should hurry and chase out those who aren’t supposed to stay in this family. That way, I’ll be able to feel better.”

Christina decided to go to the backyard for a short break after sitting too long. Unexpectedly, she overheard the two’s conversation.

She can’t wait to chase me out of the family so that she’ll feel better, huh?

Christina laughed bitterly to herself. Mrs. Hadley sure holds a strong prejudice toward me.

Madison turned to look in the direction of where the footsteps sounded from, and at first glance, she was shocked by the woman’s strange style. “Mrs. Hadley, who is she?”

“She’s the designer I hired. There are two important dinner banquets next month,” Julia responded. flatly.

Madison thought that woman’s figure resembled Christina’s. The gentle and delicate aura she emanated was laced with a tinge of distant vibe, and her thin shoulders made others feel like protecting her.

Madison hated that kind of woman the most as she presumed they would use their weakness to gain men’s sympathy. Naturally, she did not like the woman before her eyes at that instant.

Christina merely gave Julia a light nod and walked out right after.

In the backyard, a light jasmine floral scent permeated the air as the cool breeze blew. It was refreshing and soothing to the soul. Suddenly, an idea bloomed in Christina’s head. She picked some withered jasmine flowers, intending to bring them back.

Most of the jasmine flowers were well cared for, and of course, she could not bear to pluck the healthy

ones. Instead, she picked up the ones scattered on the ground and had quite a good yield after circling the yard once.

“The nerve of you to pluck Mrs. Hadley’s jasmine flowers. Any idea how much effort she puts into caring for these flowers every month?”
