An Impossible Marriage
Margaret began wecping again as she spoke.
Frowning, Christopher passed her a piece of tissue. Margaret did not accept it. Instead, she turned her face to another side.
Christopher helped her wipe off the tears without waiting for her response. Then, he said, “I won‘t be contacting Megan again.”
Margaret was stunned. Is he expressing his stand now? Did he really do all that to me just to seek revenge? How much does he hate me for him to go to such an extreme?
At that moment, she felt as if she was already dying inside. “Fine. As long as you cut ties with her, I won‘t leave the Lewis family for the rest of my life.” NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
She would stay with him and let him torture her as he pleased.
A tinge of pleasure flashed across Christopher‘s eyes. “You said so yourself! Now that you‘ve promised never to leave the Lewis family, let‘s forget about everything we‘ve agreed on in the past. Even after you give birth to the child, you‘ll stay with me forever.”
Margaret straightened her back and looked at him. “I‘ll do as I‘ve promised. I hope you would do the same, too.”
With that, Christopher took out his phone immediately and dialed Megan‘s number in front of Margaret. He even put it on speaker mode.
When the call got through, Megan‘s excited voice rang out from the other end of the line. “Christopher, I knew you would call me!”
He did not respond to her. Instead, Margaret spoke for him. “It‘s me. Christopher won‘t contact you anymore.”
Megan raised her voice instantly upon hearing that. “What are you talking about? Who do you think you are to speak to me like that? Margaret, don‘t think that you‘re so great just because you‘re Mrs. Lewis now. You‘ll get kicked out of the family sooner or later!”
Margaret sneered inwardly and thought, “Well, you can talk whatever you like. Christopher is the one who made the call, and he‘s right beside me now. He‘s listening to every word you speak. Let him have a look at your true colors now. I

didn‘t expect you to be so ferocious when you start scolding, You always talked so softly and gently.”
Megan grew slightly panicked, but she was not entirely convinced. “No way! Christopher would never”
Christopher cut her off before she could finish her sentence, “She‘s not lying. I made the call. Let‘s stop contacting each other from now onward. We are even now after I‘ve helped the Jenkins family. That‘s it.”
With that said, he ended the call. Margaret felt gratified. It was a special feeling that she thought she could get addicted to.
Now, she had truly experienced the pleasure of seeking revenge. It was no wonder Christopher liked to torture her. She wondered if the man felt the same when he saw her in an embarrassing state.
“What‘s in your mind? Are you hungry? Shall we eat something downstairs?”
Christopher had no idea what Margaret was thinking. Meanwhile, the latter was not used to him talking to her so pleasantly. “A little bit, but I don‘t want to eat downstairs. I‘ll get Elizabeth to send it to my room.”
Christopher did not insist on getting her to go downstairs. “Well, have some rest first.”
Later that afternoon, Christopher brought lunch to Margaret‘s room with Tabby following behind him. The way the cat walked was arrogant and fearless.
Margaret could tell that Christopher was still afraid of Tabby. He would not dare to make a move whenever it touched him.
“You‘re not allergic to cat‘s fur. You‘re afraid of it, aren‘t you?” Margaret asked while eating
“Have your meal.” Christopher appeared uncomfortable and refused to answer her question.
Margaret felt amused. She did not expect that a big man like him would be afraid of an animal as adorable as a cat. If it were not because she was still feeling upset, she might have burst out laughing.
After finishing her meal, Margaret asked Christopher tentatively, “I‘m getting bored at home, so I would like to return to my job. I‘m not discussing it with you. I‘m telling
you. Though you‘ve given me a credit card, I don‘t want to spend your money all the time. That‘s for emergency use. I need to support myself”
Christopher took care of the dishes while replying to her, “I‘m also telling you, no way. All you need to do is take care of your body and give me a baby.
