Chapter 173
Chapter 173 Is It Good?
Yuliana inquired, “What are you trying to say?”
ording to Margaret’s temperament, it was impossible for her toe to Yuliana just for Zachary’s
birthday party.
Margaret’s eyes were full of arrogance andcency. “I’m guessing you can’t enter the birthday
party in the Sce residence with your identity, so I came to tell you in advance.”
She suddenly took a few steps closer to Yuliana. Yuliana stood still, but the security guard was nervous
and almost stepped forward to stop her.
He stopped when he noticed Margaret had stopped moving.
Margaret lowered her voice and said to Yuliana. The Sce family will announce my engagement to
Christopher at the birthday party!”
Sofia calledst night. Quincy had a pretty good guess, even though they didn’t say it explicitly. Apart
from throwing a party for Zachary, the most important thing was to use this asion to announce
Christopher’s marriage to the rest of the world.
That was why she couldn’t help but brag in front of Yuliana.
Margaret’s heart ached when she remembered how protective Christopher was of Yuliana. However, a
woman like Yuliana could only be a disgraceful mistress. Even if Christopher had feelings for her, he
would not marry her!
Margaret assumed Christopher had a soft spot for her.
Otherwise, even if the two elders of the Sce family were unaware, Christopher knew that he had
never slept with her, but he admitted to it. How could he be willing to suffer such a loss if he didn’t have
feelings for her?
Yuliana’s brows moved slightly as she listened to Margaret’s words, and her doubts deepened.
She asked solemnly. “Are you done?”
Margaret thought it was ridiculous when she saw Yuliana pretending to be calm and pretentiously said,
“Yuliana, you don’t have to be sad. I’ll introduce you to a suitable housekeeper from the Sce
residence in the future! I know you want to be a part of the Sce family. Marrying a Sce residence
housekeeper can still be considered achieving the same goal via a different route!”
“What are you doing here again?” A voice sounded from behind her.
Yuliana tilted her head as she heard the sound and saw Fiona approaching with several books. The
latter had just returned from her ss the previous period.
Margaret’s face became tense when she noticed Fiona. She didn’t need to stay here any longer now
that she had said everything she needed to say and had seen Yuliana’s dejected expression.
She soon left with Scarlett.
As soon as they were gone, Fiona approached and asked, “Ms. Livingstone, what is she doing here
again?”
Yuliana shrugged, as she was also confused. After giving it some thought, she picked up her phone
and sent a message to Christopher: [Mr. Sce is having a birthday party?]
Christopher was in Kendrick’s office at this time.
There were some things that were found out in Romdale
Even though Christopher had left Romdale, he hadn’t been gone in vain for the past month or so. Other
important departments, in addition to Cameron, dispatched personnel over here.
There were also divisions within the Sce Corporation Romdale Branch. Not everyone was used to
Yorick’s nepotism, especially some practical people who had their own skills but were always
suppressed by Yorick because they didn’t know how to suck up and tter others. Instead, those with
limited abilities continued to rise through the ranks.
These people hade in handy recently
The headquarters would send other people to investigate the incident, especially after Christopher was
transferred away from Romdale. Yorick was rushing to erase the evidence, so he would eventually
reveal his
true colors
Kendrick pinched his brows and remained silent for a while after reading the information sent from
Romdale Christopher was sitting on the couch and drinking tea when his phone rang.
He took it, looked at the message, and replied: [Yes This Sunday.]
He waited a while, but Yuliana didn’t send any more messages. Christopher put away his phone and
nced at Kendrick, who was still silent.
Christopher inquired, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Kendrick sped his hands and stared at Christopher There’s nothing wrong, but something doesn’t
feel right.”
The project in Romdale was not the only recent issue for the Sce Corporation. There were also
issues in other branchpanies. “Why is there nothing wrong with the leadership of other branches if
Yorick has shown signs of betrayal?”
In addition, with such a big project, even if Yorick had ideas of betrayal, how would he execute it?
If something happened, he would be held ountable!
Christopher sipped his coffee and casually stated, “You’re overly suspicious. You overthink everything!”
Kendrick didn’t say anything. He closed the Sce Corporation Romdale Branch file and shifted
another stack of documents in front of him.
Christopher stated, “The Romdale issue will be resolved once we have a thorough understanding of
Yorick’s crimes over the years and have turned the pieces of evidence over to the police. Then I’ll owe
you nothing. I will not meddle in the affairs of the Sce Corporation in the future.”
Associates also had to settle their debts.
Kendrick didn’t take his words seriously and went on to open other documents. “Don’t you think you’re
a good fit for this job?”
Christopher rebutted, “I don’t think so.”
He slept in Kendrick’s office and drove out of the Sce Corporation Building around five o’clock to
pick up Yuliana.
The final exam was scheduled for next month, with more than two weeks remaining.
Some new courses were still unfinished, and Yuliana needed to organize the materials for the final
review. Because fourth grade differed from first, second, and third grades, Yuliana was busier during
this time than in previous years.
It took her more than half an hour to get out of school.

It was already dark outside.
She heard a horn beep when she approached the door.
She followed the sound and came across a car parked on the side of the road.
Yuliana approached the car, opened the door, and got in. Christopher then handed her a box
containing fried chicken from some influencer’s restaurant.
She froze for a moment
Last night, she just told Hailey that she wanted to eat it.
Her preferences had recently shifted. She didn’t like them before but had been craving themtely.
Christopher was ying games in the living room at that time.
Yuliana took the box and held it still
Christopher asked, “Do you not want to eat it?”
Yuliana nced at him and said, “TII eat when we get home.”
Christopher unwrapped the packaging and said, “When we get home, it’ll be cold and won’t be
delicious anymore. You should eat it now.”
Then, he took a piece and fed it to Yuliana.
Yuliana hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth and taking a bite.
Christopher was feeding her a fried drumstick with a lot of meat. It had a crisp skin and tasted fresh and
tender
She discovered for the first time how delicious fried chicken was.
Christopher looked at her satisfied expression, wiped the scraps from her mouth, and softly asked, “Is it
delicious?”
Yuliana squinted her eyes and nodded. “It’s delicious!”
Christopher raised his eyebrows and asked, “Since it’s delicious, shouldn’t I be rewarded tonight?”
Yuliana paused and red at him.
She turned to the side with the box of fried chicken in her arms and ignored him.
The tips of her ears were a little red.
In a blink of an eye, It was Sunday.
The day before yesterday, the Sce residence sent clothes and jewelry over. Yuliana understood
what the Sce family meant after she saw them.
Yuliana was nervous. She didn’t sleep well at night and only fell asleep as dawn approached.
When she woke up, it was almost eight o’clock.
She had to do her makeup and hairter, and she was running out of time.
Yuliana hurried into the bathroom to wash up. When she was about to brush her teeth with a
toothbrush, her attention was drawn to her fingers, and she noticed something new between them.
