Chapter 32


    Chapter 32 I Have No Opinion


    Without a doubt, the hand in the picture belonged to a woman.


    Christopher stopped in his tracks, and his gray eyes suddenly darkened. He stared at the picture for a


    few seconds. After that, he put away his phone and went upstairs. However, when he was about to


    open the door to the study, Christopher suddenly took out his phone and looked at the picture again.


    After pausing for a second, Christopher typed a question mark and sent the message.


    Soon, Raymond replied. He wrote: [Ms. Livingstone came for a blind date. It’s a coincidence that we


    met, so we’re having a cup of coffee together.]


    Christopher stared at the message sent by Raymond for a while, especially at the keyword for a bit


    longer. Christopher gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.


    “Why are you standing by the door and snorting?” Kendrick was standing behind Christopher in a set of


    dark-colored loungewear. The former’s face was as stern as ever.


    Christopher put away his phone and did not say anything. He then opened the door of the study, waited


    for Kendrick to enter, and followed suit.


    Christopher sat downzily on the chair, took out his phone, and looked at the message from Raymond


    again. Without lifting his head, he asked, “Ken, what can I do for you?”


    Kendrick sat on the chair behind the desk and did not look at Christopher as he stared at theputer


    screen with his sses on. “What’s going on between you and Annabelle?”


    “What do you mean by ‘what’s going on? You see it, too, don’t you? I’m preparing to get married to


    Annabelle,” Christopher answered nonchntly.


    Kendrick nced at Christopher coldly and asked, “Do you think getting married is a joke?”


    “Didn’t you get married to Joyce when the two of you only met once? Isn’t that more like a joke?”


    Christopher responded while looking at Kendrick.


    Kendrick replied, “Joyce and I are different from you guys.”


    “How different are you guys?” Christopher shed an evil smile and continued, “If Joyce wasn’t


    pregnant, would you have married her?”


    As soon as Christopher finished speaking, he heard the sound of porcin shattering outside the door.


    Christopher was stunned. He stood up and walked to the door to have a look. He saw a figure hurrying


    downstairs and a broken coffee pot on the ground by the study’s door.


    Christopher then turned around, looked at Kendrick, and gloatinglymented, “You’re screwed, Ken!”


    Kendrick nced at him coldly. Before running away, Christopher said, “Ken, you’d better take care of


    your own business first. Don’t worry about me.”


    After going downstairs, Christopher picked up his coat that was on the couch as if he was about to


    leave. Seeing that, Winnie hurriedly asked, “Chris, where are you going?”


    After hearing what Winnie said, everyone else in the living room turned to look at Christopher, including


    Annabelle.


    Christopher looked at the others. Finally, he looked Annabelle in the eyes and said, “Ray has


    something, and he needs me. I’m going out now. Don’t wait for me for dinner.”


    Zachary nced at Annabelle and said with a bit of dissatisfaction, “I specifically asked all of you to


    come back today to discuss your marriage with Annabelle. Do you think it’s appropriate for you to leave


    like this?” Christopher put on his coat and answered casually, “You guys discussing it will do. I have no


    opinion.”


    He paused and looked at Annabelle again but did not say anything. After that, Christopher took his car


    keys and strode away.


    Annabelle looked at Christopher’s back as he left and did not say anything in response. Instead, La


    carefully observed Annabelle’s expression.


    Annabelle smiled at them and said, “La, don’t look at me like that. I’m fine. Raymond and


    Christopher are close friends. Something urgent must havee up. That’s why he needed


    Christopher. By the way, what were you saying? Let’s continue.”


    La sighed. Could she not know what her younger brother, Christopher, was like?


    In fact, La was not optimistic about Christopher and Annabelle’s marriage. It was not that Annabelle


    was not good. It was because La felt Annabelle was a great girl, so she was worried that


    Christopher would hurt Annabelle in the end.


    However, there were some things that La could not change.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Since it was Christopher’s choice and Annabelle was willing to do it, Winnie and Zachary were happy


    about it too. Hence, it seemed like there were no problems with it.


    Raymond fiddled with his phone and asked, “Ms. Livingstone, what do you want to talk to me about?”


    “Mr. Quinn, as of now, Xani has no ns to get married. She came to meet you today because Mr. and


    Mrs. Yeager forced her to,” Yuliana answered.


    Raymond replied faintly with an “oh.” He then continued, “Well, that’s good. I’m not interested in Ms.


    Yeager either.”


    Yuliana was not surprised after hearing Raymond’s answer.


    She picked up the coffee cup and took a sip. The content of the cup was not coffee but simply warm


    water. “However, Xani wants to make a deal with you,” Yuliana said.


    Raymond was stunned and suddenly looked up at Yuliana. “A deal.”


    Yuliana nodded in response. “Xani hopes that you can y along with her for a while so that she can


    deal with her family.”


    Pauline was still sick. Hence, Xandria did not want to have a head-on conflict with her. However, if the


    blind date with Raymond did not go well today, there would be many blind dates waiting for her after


    this, and Xandria would be annoyed.


    Therefore, Xandria discussed the idea with Yuliana while on their way to the café.


    Xandria and Raymond were longtime enemies. It was natural that they did not see eye to eye.


    Moreover, Raymond was not a well-behaved man, and his family probably forced him to meet Xandria


    too.


    Since both Xandria and Raymond were in the same situation, they could actually work together. They


    could y along with each other and act when needed. They could continue with their respective lives


    whenever they did not need each other.


    Yuliana saw Raymond frown and hurriedly said, “Of course, Mr. Quinn, Xani will try her best to


    cooperate, too, if you ever need her.”


    Raymond understood what she meant.


    Xandria was also forced by her family. That was why she wanted to make a deal and work together


    with Raymond.


    Suddenly, Raymond smiled and said, “I’ll think about it.”


    “What’s there to think about?” After cleaning up, Xandria still looked like an angry lion. “As a man,


    you’re not losing anything. I’m the one who will be at a disadvantage. My reputation will be ruined if I


    have something to do with you.”


    Raymond sneered, “Then, don’t look for me. Go find someone else!”


    “Y-You!”


    Just then, Raymond’s phone rang. He picked it up and looked at it. He then clicked on the screen a few


    times. Suddenly, Raymond looked at Yuliana and said, “I’m a little hungry. Otherwise, shall we grab


    something to eat first and chat while eating?”


    “Who wants to have dinner with you?” Xandria retorted.


    “Okay then!” Raymond rose to his feet and continued, “When I go backter, I’ll tell Mrs. Yeager that


    we’ve liked each other for a long time and want to get married immediately. I’ll ask her to prepare for


    our wedding immediately!”


    “Are you crazy?” Xandria’s eyes widened as she looked at Raymond as if he was a psycho.


    Yuliana pulled Xandria and said, “Forget it. It’s almost time for dinner anyway. I’m a little hungry too.”


    After hearing what Yuliana said, Xandria could only tolerate Raymond for now.


    Raymond smiled, turned around, and walked out of the café first.


    Xandria red at his back for a few seconds and said to Yuliana, “Yuliana, why did you agree to have


    dinner. with him? If you are hungry, we can eat by ourselves.”


    “Don’t you want to work with him? Won’t you need to eat with him often in the future in order to deal


    with your family? I think you should change this bad temper of yours. Otherwise, you will be at a


    disadvantage,” Yuliana replied.


    Raymond found a Clusian restaurant nearby and asked for a private room. After the three of them sat


    down and finished ordering, the private room door was pushed open from outside.


    Yuliana’s vision was a blur. Suddenly, her gaze was fixated on someone. Yuliana then saw Christopher


    enter the private room with a young girl.


    Looking at the two who had just arrived, Raymond leaned against the chair, smiled, and said, “You


    came just in time. We just ordered the dishes.”
