Chapter 145


    1/2


    “I already refused youst time. Now our family’spany is facing some problems. I was short on


    money before, and now it’s even worse. Think of another solution.


    “You might as well ask Skr. She had a formidable backer. She even dared to mock us coldly


    when she came home the other day. She even had the courage to cut ties with my family.


    Maisy was really running out of patience with Christopher. She wondered why she hadn’t noticed


    how troublesome Christopher was before. He constantly bothered her with trivial matters over the


    phone,


    which annoyed her to no end.


    Christopher looked at the phone that had been ruthlessly hung up. He could feel his cheeks


    burning.


    He had spent so much money on Maisy, and now that he was facing difficulties, he couldn’t believe


    Maisy


    had turned her back on him!


    If only he had known…


    He shouldn’t have betrayed Skr. If he hadn’t betrayed Skr, she wouldn’t have left him for


    another


    man


    Paul didn’t seem better than him in any way. Skr must have found out about him and Maisy, then


    acted


    recklessly in a fit of anger.


    Christopher regretted it more and more!


    But there was no time left for regrets. “I can only sell the old house and go back home for the


    surgery.”


    No, he felt he had to try again. He had to find Skr. He couldn’t live without her!


    Janine was surprised when she received a call from Amelia. She had blocked Amelia’s number, and


    she


    had called from a different one.


    She started crying as soon as she spoke. “Janine, I apologize. It was my fault! Over the years, my


    health has been poor, and I’ve often visited the hospital.


    “After so long, it affected me mentally, making me selfish and inconsiderate of others. These past


    few days, I’ve been full of regret, especially about the hurtful things I said to you that day and how I


    hurt


    Skr’s feelings.”


    She added, “I’ve been reflecting these days and even consulted a doctor. My condition is mostly


    psychological, which is why I couldn’t control myself and hurt others.


    “We’ve known each other for so many years. You should know what kind of person I am. I truly wish


    for the best for them. Last time, I wronged Skr, and I regretted those words as soon as they were


    said.”


    She continued, “Janine, the children have been in a rtionship for so many years, and it’s the


    purest form of romance. Our generation hasn’t experienced much romance, but we can’t ruin the


    kids‘ love.

    “Christopher truly loves Skr. They had such a stable rtionship before, and they were about to


    get married. We can’t let a few misunderstandings and my mistakes end their rtionship.


    “It really is a misunderstanding. How could Christopher ever wrong Skr? It’s all fake! Oh, right,


    the Williams family. They really mistreated Skr, especially your own daughter.


    *She often seduces Christopher and then causes trouble for Skr at the Williams family. This time,


    it must have been her doing, just to break Skr and Christopher apart.


    Amelia had now seen clearly that she couldn’t rely on Maisy. Christopher had made it clear that


    Maisy would only watch coldly from the sidelines and take their money but never give them any in


    return.


    They had to depend on Skr for the surgery.


    Janine’s face turnedpletely cold as she listened to her parents talk about the things Maisy had


    done to Skr.


    Just a few days ago, Maisy had unusually called her. She was asking Skr to return to the


    Williams family.


    Then she called Skr, and she must have gone back to the Williams family. She never mentioned


    what the Williamses did to her.


    She always reported joy but not sorrow. She hid her grievances deep inside, not wanting to


    concern


    anyone.


    Janine felt utterly ipetent as a mother, especially after hearing from others about Skr’s


    suffering.


    “So you knew everything, yet you just watched Skr suffer. Let me make it clear, I absolutely will


    not agree to Skr being with your son. You can give up on that!”


    Janine had just hung up the phone when Harvey, who had been listening to her and Amelia’s


    conversation, pushed open the front door and ran out.


    “Harvey, where are you going?”


    “I’m going to find my sister!”
