Chapter 35


    Christopher was driving as he said to the phone, “Skr wants to break up with me.”


    “Break up with you? But isn’t she madly in love with you?”


    Maisy felt like things were slipping out of her control. Something must have happened to Skr that


    she and Christopher didn’t know about.

    “I still don’t get it either. Could it be that she found out about our affair? If she has, I should take this


    chance to break it off with her. Let’s make our rtionship official, Maisy.”


    “Christopher, you and I aren’t in a rtionship. We’re just regr friends who happened to go to the


    same college.


    “So what if Skr thinks we had an our affair? She’s just being paranoid and overthinking things.”


    Maisy drew a clear line between her and Christopher at once.


    Christopher mmed the brakes just then. “B–But we had sex in a hotel roomst week. Doesn’t


    that mean we’re seeing each other?”


    Maisy bluntly replied, “It’s only sex. It’s not like we have a future together. Besides, my parents


    would never let me marry you. I’m different from Skr, after all.”


    She’d merely enjoyed stealing Skr’s boyfriend. It wasn’t like she would willingly let herself marry


    someone with a lower social standing.


    Christopher gripped the steering wheel, his chest tightening so much it was difficult to breathe. “You


    don’t think I’m good enough?”


    “You know about Joe Martin, right? He’s the CEO of Martin Group. I’d dly be your official


    girlfriend


    if you had the same social background as him!


    “Since you don’t, please don’t take this thing between us too seriously. You should brainstorm ways


    to win Skr back and have her continue donating blood to me.”


    Maisy had never cared about what Christopher thought. She wouldn’t have been interested in


    Christopher if he hadn’t been Skr’s boyfriend,


    Christopher gritted his teeth after ending the call. Maisy’s words had reminded him that he couldn’t


    afford to lose Skr. So, he would never let Skr break up with him.

    He called her at once, but she declined the call, just like she had before.


    For some reason, he began to panic and sent her a text. “Babe, we’re not breaking up. I don’t agree


    to it. We’ll talk things through when you’re not angry anymore.”


    Following that, he called Amelia.


    Ten minutester, Skr was driving along the road back to Gxy Vi. She first received calls


    and texts


    from Christopher. However, less than ten minutes passed when Amelia called her, too.


    There happened to be congestion on the road, so Skr answered the call.

    “Skye! I heard you and Christopher are fighting. Did he upset you? I’ve given him a good scolding,


    and he knows he made a mistake.


    “Please let him off the hook for my reputation’s sake, okay?” Amelia advised Skr like she was the


    wiser,


    older family member.


    Skr found the former’s words ridiculous. “Your reputation doesn’t matter to me. Do you know why


    I


    answered your call?”


    “What on earth is going on with you, Skye? You were never this impolite to me before.” Amelia–was


    getting slightly angry.


    “I don’t need to be polite with you. I only answered your call because a child picks up bad behaviors


    from their parents. Christopher is a carbon copy of you. In fact, he’s an even more skilled viin


    than you.


    *You and your son are like a pack of vermin. It’s no wonder you guys are family!” Skr shouted


    before


    promptly hanging up.


    Skr had only learned the truth when she’d been amputated and bedridden in her previous life.


    It turned out that Amelia had been a mistress all along, and Christopher was a bastard child. That


    was


    why Skr had never seen Christopher’s father.


    Amelia was livid as she stared at her phone screen, which indicated Skr had ended the call.


    “If I hadn’t seen you as someone useful, I wouldn’t have let you date my son! Let’s see who’ll regret


    it more after you break up with my Christopher!”


    Skr arrived at Gxy Vi half an hourter.


    She was about to open the door and enter when Caleb called her.


    He said, “Skr, I know an expert team in Jipsburg that specializes in restoring antiques. They’re


    hiring now. Would you like to drop by and check it out?”


    Skr asked, “Are you talking about the team led by Alexander Gardner, the master of antique


    restoration?


    “Yep.”


    “I’ll apply for a position if Iplete Mr. Zeller’s work theseing days. Thanks for letting me


    know, Caleb Skr hung up while opening the door.


    The vi’s interior was brightly lit. Joe stood at the stairs, his cold stare directed at Skr.
