Chapter 510 Find A Partner

“I’m from the children’s psychology clinic. You’ve been here before. Do you remember?”

Christina’s doubts instantly dissolved when she heard that. “Yes. Is there something you need?”

“I’m calling you to make arrangements for your follow-up visit. May I know when you will be available?”

Follow-up visit?

Christina knitted her brows as she contemplated for a while. “Sorry. We don’t intend to go for follow-ups.”

Camila was doing great so far, and the incident did not leave a particularly deep impression on her. Christina did

not think her daughter needed to be examined again.

The words of rejection were like a spark that ignited Emilia’s fury. For a moment, she could not find the right words

to respond.

As there was no response from the other end of the line, Christina thought the caller had understood her answer

and so she hung up.

“Christina!” Emilia could not help but yell into the phone when she heard the call being hung up.

Right then, the receptionist returned from the restroom and witnessed the furious woman’s actions, “What are you

doing?” she asked in puzzlement.

Emilia frantically returned the handset to its original position and picked up the mop beside her. “I was just calling

home, but no one picked up.”

“This is to interact with the clients. You can’t use it so recklessly,” was all the receptionist said without thinking much

about the situation.

Emilia nodded in response, but she was secretly memorizing Christina’s number. I must find a way to make

her meet me!

Christina chatted with Rayne for a while before getting back to work.

She looked beautiful when she concentrated on her work.

Rayne couldn’t help but pull out her phone to take a picture of her superior and post it on the Twitter account of the

studio.

Ding!

Not long after the picture was posted, someone privately messaged her to order a gown.

It was the first sale after Christina’s return.

Rayne hurriedly broke the good news to Christina.

It had been a while since Christina had made gowns for her clients, so the news cheered her up.

Regardless, confirming the client’s details and signing the agreement were Rayne’s responsibilities.

Christina was done with her work for the day when she completed the underpainting for the design draft.

Upon leaving the studio, Christina went to visit Sharon instead of going back to Scenic Garden Manor.

Christina did not bring Sharon along when she left Hallshay. Fortunately. Nathaniel had made the arrangements to

bring Sharon over and settle her in a high-end residential area.

“Christina, why are you here? Where are Nathaniel and the kids?” Sharon flashed a wide smile when she saw

Christina standing at the door, but her smile faded a little when she realized there was no one behind

her.

That is what happens when people get old. They don’t like to be alone.

Noting the change in Sharon’s emotions, Christina stepped forward and hugged her. “Nathaniel has gone to pick up

the kids from the kindergarten. They’ll be coming over in a while. I came here first to help you.”

Sharon’s spirits were lifted again when she heard Nathaniel and the children would be arriving in a while. Still, she

scolded Christina, “Why didn’t you give me a call before coming? I didn’t buy any groceries.”

“We’re not guests, anyway,” Christina refuted with a pout as she pushed Sharon into the kitchen.

Despite Sharon’s words, Christina found the refrigerator to be packed with a variety of meat and vegetables the

moment she opened it.

“Why are there so much?” Christina turned to look at Sharon.

Sharon did not answer. Her face was flushed red with embarrassment as she turned around to put on the

apron.

Of course, Christina was smart enough to realize Sharon had been preparing loads of groceries every day and

eagerly waiting for her visit.

The thought of that made Christina feel bad. She had been too busy that she had not been spending much time

with her mother.

Christina moved over and hugged Sharon from the back. “Mom, you should move in with us.”

Scenic Garden Manor’s huge, anyway.

“It’s okay. It’s not so bad here,” Sharon declined the offer right away.

She did not want to inconvenience Christina.

Before Christina could continue saying anything else, Sharon ushered her out of the kitchen with the excuse that

the kitchen was too small.

Christina had no choice but to sit in the living room, watching TV while keeping an eye on her mother in

the kitchen..

After a brief silence, Christina said in a voice that was loud enough for Sharon’s ears, “Mom, I heard Dad and

Miranda got a divorce.”

The chopping sounds from the kitchen did not seem to stop, and the person in the kitchen did not. respond.

Christina felt as if her words were like a stone that had been thrown into the bottomless sea.

Nonetheless, she was sure her mother had heard her loud and clear.

Since Sharon did not respond. Christina decided against saying anything more.

After a moment of silence, Nathaniel finally arrived with Camila and Lucas.

Immediately, the house was filled with a lively atmosphere.

Everyone enjoyed themselves during the meal.

Before leaving, Christina kept her eyes fixed on Sharon’s expression, which showed no signs of sorrow. She had no

choice but to take her leave.

Nathaniel could tell something was up with Christina during their journey home, but he waited until the children

were asleep in their beds before he asked her about it.

“I want to find a partner for my mom,” Christina said honestly.

Sharon was in her fifties, which was still a considerably young age. Christina could not help but think that it was a

lonely thing to spend another thirty years alone.

Her words did not surprise Nathaniel, for he, too, had the same thought once. However, he had never told her

about it because he feared she might not accept the idea.

“Mm, I agree with you.”

Nathaniel’s support made Christina feel as if she had half succeeded, but she quickly frowned again. After all,

looking for an elderly partner was not easy.

In fact, Christina could sense that Sharon still had feelings for Gideon.

“I’ll talk to Mom later to find out what she thinks about it.” Nathaniel suggested. The creases on Christina’s

forehead told him she was having a dilemma.

Christina nodded, keeping her doubts to herself. “Okay.”

As they stood on the balcony, they were warmed by each other’s company despite the chilly autumn

breeze.

The two were about to get ready to sleep when Raymond knocked on the door.

“Mrs. Hadley, Ms. Taggart is here. She’d like to see you.”

Ms. Taggart? Madison?

Christina quickly changed into another set of clothes and made her way to the door.

Nathaniel, too, got up, only to receive a look from Christina. “She’s here to see me. Why are you so excited?”

Blinking innocently, Nathaniel said, “I’m worried she’ll make things difficult for you.”

“She’s in my territory. She wouldn’t dare.” Christina thought Nathaniel was worried over nothing.

She’s right. She’s not someone who can be bullied, anyway.

He returned to the bed, feeling relieved, while Christina buttoned her clothes and walked toward the

courtyard.
