Chapter 124 Say It Again
After emerging from Yuliana’s house, Christopher sat in the car and smoked one cigarette after
another. Suddenly, the phone rang. His calm eyes nced across the screen.
In an instant, his eyes darkened again.
Before the ringtone was about to end, he finally picked up the phone and answered the call.
“Christopher, do you really believe the Sce family is noble and prominent enough for you to decide
others’ lives at your own will?” Yvette cursed angrily on the other end of the line. “I’ve never seen such
despicable people like your family! Did Annabelle even hinder or cause you any trouble? When you
cheated on Annabelle
you and your and got the mistress pregnant, what right do you have to send Annabelle abroad? It is
shameless mistress who should be sent packing! I swear you’ll get what you deserve!”
With a dark expression, Christopher refuted coldly, “Yvette, don’t think I won’t dare to hit you just
because you’re a woman. I dare you to say it again!”
Yvette sneered, “What? Did I hit your sore spot? I was just about to say that you, Christopher Sce,
are a shameless and disrespectful coward. You’re lucky to have been born into a prominent family and
a brother who cleans up your mess! Is the Sce family not ashamed to bully a poor woman?!”
Yvette hung up the phone after cursing loudly. Her heart was racing quickly.
There was a banging sound when Christopher smashed his phone against the storage rack on his
right.
Taking a few deep puffs of a cigarette, he stepped out of the car, tossed the cigarette butt, and then
returned inside. Then, he picked up the phone again and began to dial a number on it.
The mechanical beeping sounded for a long time before the call went through.
“Where are you?” Christopher asked.
Annabelle was silent for two seconds. “Is there a problem?”
Christopher replied, “Yes.”
Annabelle then said, “I’m almost at the airport.”
Christopher said, “Wait for me! You’re not allowed to get on the ne before I get there.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
He then left Maple Garden and sped toward the airport.
Meanwhile, Annabelle arrived at the airport with Melinda.
Yvette was already there when both of them arrived.
After they met, Yvette and Annabelle hugged each other.
Yvette’s expression still seemed displeased. She stared at Annabelle for a while and said, “Annabelle,
why do you have to treat yourself unfairly?”
From Yvette’s perspective, Christopher was the one who betrayed Annabelle, so she did not
understand why Annabelle should be forced to leave for a foreign country.
Annabelle smiled and said, “I was the one who wanted to leave.”
Yvette sneered, “You’re just lying to yourself.”
She knew Annabelle extremely well.
Annabelle appeared to be strong and proud. The truth was, she was only outwardly strong but inwardly
weak.
Annabelle was afraid of being alone. While she was still studying, she had to ask someone to
apany her to the bathroom.
She could not have made the decision to travel alone to a foreign ce.
It was difficult for Annabelle to exin the rtionship between her and Christopher to Yvette.
In fact, she was not clear about what their rtionship actually was.
Yvette hesitated for a while before she told Annabelle that she had called Christopher to curse him
angrily.
“No wonder Christopher had called me so suddenly and spoke angrily,” Annabelle thought.
Annabelle nced at the time and noticed that there was still about an hour before boarding time. She
then went to settle the check-in procedure and proceeded to check in her luggage as well.

After Annabelle found a ce to sit, she sent Christopher her location before chatting with Melinda and
Yvette.
Half an hourter, Christopher finally arrived at the airport.
Yvette’s face darkened immediately. “What are you doing here? Are you here to make sure Annabelle
got on the ne?”
Annabelle looked at Christopher silently without trying to interrupt Yvette.
On the other hand, Melinda pulled Yvette aside and said, “Yve, why don’t you apany me to the
bathroom?”
Yvette looked at Christopher coldly for a while and finally left with Melinda.
Christopher sat across from Annabelle and asked, “Did Kendrick tell you to go abroad?”
Annabelle lowered her gaze and said nothing.
After a few seconds of silence, Christopher said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to leave. You can…”
“I want to,” Annabelle interrupted him as she smiled. “Although Kendrick indeed wanted me to go
abroad, he couldn’t force me if I didn’t want to. You’re right. I really didn’t want to leave. However, there
is a difference between wanting to leave and having to leave. I just think that I needed to leave.”
Annabelle smiled at him again.
for Frowning slightly, she added, “What I said to you thest time you came to see me was serious.
Christopher, it’s impossible for you to control me for the rest of my life, and it’s also impossible for me to
rely on your the rest of yours. I have to learn to be alone, and you need to learn to let go and live your
own life. Kendrick did this for our sake as well.”
In the end, Annabelle boarded the ne and flew toward Zai.
Meanwhile, Christopher left the airport and called the Sce residence. A maid answered the phone.
“Is Kendrick at home?”
The maid immediately recognized Christopher’s voice and replied cheerfully, “It’s Mr. Christopher
Sce! Yes, Mr. Kendrick Sce is at home. Do you need me to get him to answer the call?”
Christopher replied, “No, I’ming back home now.”
