Chapter 375


    I sighed exasperatedly. I already knew what Nathan was trying to say, and I already realized who I had


    bumped into on the way here. Obviously, that was Mitchell Martin, Monica’s father. It was no wonder he


    would speak to me in such a tone.


    Nathan had always assumed I was just Christopher’s mistress. He had even tried to make some


    connections through me so he could coborate with the Lane family. Now that Mitchell was causing


    problems, Nathan didn’t even think twice before demanding that I leave Christopher.


    “That’s right, Eve. Before this, at least you were officially married to Lyle. Now you’re just a mistress.


    Where’s the fun in that? The Tanner family may not be one of the most prestigious families in the


    community, but we are still respected. You don’t have to sink that low. If you’re really having a hard


    time, you could alwayse back. We’ll be waiting with open arms,” Yvette said with a sickly


    sharine smile.


    “I’ll have to say no to that. If I returned to the Tanner family, I might get buried alive by all of you,” I said


    with a smile. “Who was the one who told you I was Christopher’s mistress? Was it Mitchell?”


    “What else could you be? Do you know how the tabloids are making you sound? If I hadn’t been so


    busy at thepany, I would have asked you toe back. Did you think Christopher announcing


    your rtionship would have helped you clear your name? Anyway, you should move out of his ce


    as soon as possible. If you have nowhere else to go, you can always move back in with us until after


    Mr. Lane and Ms. Martin’s wedding.”


    Nathan was clearly getting impatient at the sight of my nonchnce and casual insults. He seemed to


    be just a step away from picking me up by the neck and shaking me if I didn’t give him the answer I


    wanted.


    I hate you so much, I cursed inwardly. Even though he was my father, I had hated him for a long time.


    He never spoke to me like how a father should speak to his daughter. He treated me like I was a


    stranger and was even willing to immediately assume that I was just Christopher’s mistress.


    I burst out intoughter, the type that caused tears to stream from my eyes. I couldn’t help but p the


    table in my fit of giggles.


    “Why are youughing? Shut up!” Nathan’s anger finally boiled over at myughter and yelled in


    frustration.


    I finally managed to stopughing and rested my head in one hand as I said carelessly, “Oh, my dear


    father. You really don’t care about me at all. Do you really want me to leave Christopher? I’m already


    married to him. I’m officially protected by thew. Have you ever heard of a married woman getting


    pulled away from her marriage by her father, let alone watch her husband get married to another


    woman? That’s a crime, you know. Have you ever heard of bigamy?”


    “You two are married? Impossible!” My words had clearly shocked Nathan to the point where all he


    could do was stare at me with his mouth hanging open in surprise.


    “Stop lying, Eve! How could someone like Christopher Lane possibly marry you? He’s the modern


    Prince Charming and the ideal type for all the girls in Avenport while you’re just a divorced woman.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Even if you don’t want to leave him, you shouldn’t make up such lies,” Yvette said softly, looking at me


    cautiously with a hand over her mouth.


    Is my happiness truly that uneptable to these people? I couldn’t believe that even my blood rtives


    weren’t willing to believe me, so I said mildly, “I’m sorry for disappointing you, but Christopher is my


    lawfully wedded husband now. As for him being Prince Charming,” I looked at Yvette with a smirk


    before I continued, “too bad that your Prince Charming has married me, Cindere. Perhaps you


    thought of yourself as one of her wicked sisters? Either way, please forget about that fairytale of yours.”


    “I don’t care what rtionship you have with him. Now, the Martin family is driving us over the edge


    because of you. You would better settle this. If the Tanner family gets ruined because of you, I’m not


    going to let you go easily.”


    “Don’t worry. Now that I’ve heard about it, I’ll still help you guys out even though you’ve never seen me


    as a daughter.”


    I stomped out of Fiesta Hotel angrily. When I arrived at the door, I realized something. Why was Julia


    suddenly trying to start problems with me?
