Chapter 330
I initially thought I would decline Christopher’s request, but it turned out that I epted it without
hesitation when I saw the anticipation in Christopher’s eyes. At that moment, I forgot who I was and
only had one thought in mind—I would agree to it no matter what he said.
When Lucas saw me out, Christopher kept hugging me and ring at him. A momentter, he said with
a long face, “You don’t have to see her out, for I’ll take good care of my wife.”
Lucas felt a little awkward upon hearing Christopher’s direct remark. After all, Lucas was gentle and
always spoke tactfully. Hence, I kicked Christopher gently and shed Lucas an apologetic smile.
“Thank you for taking care of me all this time. It’s my honor to have you as my friend.”
“I hope I can hear it from you again when I meet you next time. Anyway, cherish your time,” Lucas said.
“Of course!” I would be delighted if I still had the chance to meet Lucas again.
We flew first-ss and returned to Avenport in a few hours. Once I got off the ne, I recalled the
despair I had when I left this ce.
My feelings now were different, yet I was still someone who was about to die. However, I wasn’t afraid,
for Christopher was always with me.
Once we got home, Christopher carried me to the couch and helped me wash up as though I was
crippled. When it was about time to have medicine, I took out the pills from my bag.
I hesitated, for I would feel ufortable every time I had the pills. Although the doctor exined that
it was alright, I didn’t want to cough up blood before Christopher.
“What do you prefer having for lunch?” Christopher sat beside me and asked.
“How about eating out? I want to eat something simple but delicious,” I blinked and replied smilingly.
“Sure, let’s eat outter.”
Since the sunlight was dazzling, I covered my eyes with the cloth given by the doctor to avoid hurting
them again. The beautiful tune from the piano filled the restaurant, and I gazed at Christopher as he
was eating. Right then, he was like the most beautiful being that I had everid my eyes upon, and I
was very reluctant to move my eyes elsewhere.
“Hey! Is that you, Eve?”
I turned around and saw Mason and Mary. Delighted to see my old friends, I stood up and greeted
them smilingly. “Mrs. Ziegler, it’s been a long time. Are you here to have dinner with Mr. Ziegler? How
sweet!”
“Haha, please spare me, for I’m already a middle-aged woman. Besides, aren’t you with your husband
as well—” Mary was startled once she pointed at Christopher. A momentter, she asked in disbelief,
“Chris?”Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.
“Mary, it’s been a long time. Come and have a seat.” Without hesitation, Christopher pointed at me and
introduced me to them. “This is my wife, Yvonne. Since you guys are friends, why don’t we have dinner
together? However, I think dinner should be on you because you still owe me one.”
“Sure, it’s my treat tonight.” Mason and Mary were shocked upon seeing us dating. After sitting down,
they kept looking at me and only ordered whatever the waitress rmended. I chuckled and couldn’t
understand why they were so shocked to find out that Christopher and I were together. After all, the
news about our rtionship had been widespread.
After a while, Mary heaved a sigh and patted my hand. “We’re aware of your rtionship with Mr. Smith
and also heard that you got a divorce. If a man doesn’t love a woman anymore, she should get a
divorce to ease the pain. Besides, Chris is a good man.”
I smiled at Mary gratefully and replied, “Thank you. Even though I’ve divorced Lyle, I hope it won’t
affect your coboration with the Smith family. After all, the family is still influential, especially since
Sharon is in charge.”
However, I could feel the reluctance in Mary’s gaze. She probably wanted to ask me if the Lane family
knew about it but held her tongue.
“Yvonne!” Suddenly, I heard Lyle’s voice from behind.
Speak of the devil. I turned around and confirmed that it was Lyle.
