Chapter 56

Margaret was confused. Three years ago, she had married Christopher, and she had been neglected

since then. No one could figure out the reason why he finally announced their marriage to the public.

Christopher always takes me as a disgrace to him, doesn‘t he? So, why did he do that? Well, he‘s an unfathomable man... I never manage to figure out what he‘s up to...

“What? How come you don‘t know about this?” Casper stared at her in disbelief.

“Well, now I know about this... Oh, Mr. Flemmington, I can see that you have plenty of free time. Since

you learned design too, shall we work overtime together?” Margaret replied.

Casper immediately rejected, his face full of reluctance. “No, thanks! You go ahead with your things. I

have something else to attend to. Remember what I told you during the meeting. I‘ve given you the

sample. Follow the sample and come up with a design that matches Christopher‘s taste. Don‘t mess up

again!”

After Casper left, Margaret still couldn‘t get rid of her uneasiness about the news. Based on her

understanding, Christopher was not the type to act without a good reason. Why did he do that?

Just as she was thinking about the matter, her phone rang. She headed to the pantry and answered the

call. “Hello?”

It was Jodie. Her voice was choked with tears as she said, “Meg, thank you so much! My dad told me

that he went to Christopher and you were there too! I know

Christopher agreed to help my dad all because of you!”

“All right. Everything is going to be okay. Don‘t lose contact with me again in the future, okay?” Margaret

gently consoled her.

Jodie started weeping. “I was just afraid that I would get you into trouble! How was I supposed to speak

up to you on such a serious matter? Besides, I couldn‘t afford to make you plead with Christopher. It

seemed to me that you were not on good terms with Christopher, so I didn‘t want to trouble you.”

Margaret unconsciously avoided talking about Christopher. “Jack came to me secretly to seek my help. I

can tell that he cares a lot about you. He requested that I help you out and told me not to tell you about it.

But now that the problem has been solved, I guess it‘s fine to let you learn of it. You have to stop

overthinking. All right. I need to go get busy now. Talk to you later.”

Right after she ended the call, someone shouted outside the pantry, “Margaret, someone‘s looking for

you!”

Margaret went out with a glass of water in her hand. Her expression instantly darkened when she saw

Hannah standing in front of her. “What do you want?” She stared at Hannah with disdain. So she‘s

anxious after knowing that I am Mrs. Lewis, huh?

…

A glint of despair flashed across Hannah‘s eyes. “Meg, please don‘t treat me this way. I was just passing

by and wanted to pay you a visit.”

Margaret felt disgusted and accused, “Do not call me Meg! It will only make me think that you‘re calling

out to your precious daughter, Megan! I‘m curious as to why you would name her after my nickname. Did

you feel guilty? Did you name her that way to remind you of me whenever you call out to her?”

Hearing that, Hannah drew in a deep breath with an unreadable expression spread over her good–

looking face. “All right. I shall leave now. I hope you‘ll live a good life.”

Though Margaret was a little baffled by Hannah‘s words, she decided to ignore her and returned to her

desk. However, it pissed her off when she noticed that Hannah was still around. Margaret was distracted

and couldn‘t focus on work.

After all the chaos, she still did not manage to come up with one wedding gown design draft. She had no

choice but to go around searching for ideas at night. Her mind was occupied with the marriage

announcement that Christopher had made earlier. She realized that her colleagues stared weirdly at her

after the news broke out. At least they will no longer mess with me.

Suddenly, a question flashed through her mind. What kind of wedding dress would Christopher prefer? I guess I will have to design it according to his liking. After all, he will be the one to make the decision.

When it was time to get off work, she was still stuck at the same point, racking her brain, yet she could

not figure out the design that Christopher would like.

Christopher had fallen asleep when Margaret arrived home.

She lay in bed after washing up. However, she was unable to fall asleep with countless thoughts

occupying her mind,

After she tossed and turned for quite a while, Christopher‘s voice came out of nowhere. “Tell me if there‘s

anything bothering you.”
