Chapter 80

At the sight of the anticipation in her eyes, Christopher had an unfathomable expression on his face. He

nodded.

Margaret felt a sense of relief at his approval. She then put on her earrings and said, “I‘m ready.”

He did not reply to her and continued changing his clothes. Before he took off his clothes, she had

already turned around with a flushed face, having her back facing him.

When they got out of the door, Margaret was wearing a thick coat. Even so, she still felt the cold wind on

her skin, which made her tighten the coat around her. She even drew a sharp breath from the cold, and

her face fell.

Christopher stopped in his tracks suddenly and said, “You can stay if you don‘t want to go–”

Margaret shook her head. “It‘s fine. I‘m not cold. Let‘s go.”

She then got into the car as soon as she finished her sentence. Meanwhile, Christopher stood still for a

moment before he followed behind her.

At that moment, Margaret sensed that there was something on Christopher‘s mind. Yet, she could not

figure it out at all as she looked into his deep, dark eyes.

The engagement party was held at a church in the suburbs. Because of the large number of guests,

there was not enough space in the church. Thus, it was held on the field outside of the church. It turned

out that the bride herself had requested for it to be held somewhere other than a hotel because it was

more romantic that way.

The decoration of the venue was striking upon first look. At the same time, there were all kinds of

luxurious cars parked by the road. Then again, the person must be a rather important figure in Dellmoor,

for Christopher had agreed to attend. Naturally, most of the guests were influential and rich people.

As soon as they got out of the car, Margaret noticed Jodie immediately. Jodie did not pay much attention

to her looks when she used to hang out with Margaret back then. Thus, Margaret was pleasantly

surprised to see how beautiful Jodie was in a dress, even though they had known each other for a long

time.

Christopher knew what was on her mind and said, “Go ahead.”

Margaret smiled at him. She then held her dress and walked toward Jodie. Christopher hesitated for a

moment as he watched her leave, but he returned to being his cold self in a flash.

“Jo!” Margaret patted Jodie‘s shoulder from behind to surprise her.

However, Jodie seemed flustered when she saw her. “Meg, why are you here?”

Margaret pointed at Christopher and said, “I‘m here with him. Why? I was a little worried that I might not

be used to this kind of event, but I‘m relieved now that I see

you.”

Jodie‘s expression darkened when she saw Christopher. “Did you attend of your own accord? Or did

Christopher ask you to attend?”

Margaret felt a little strange to hear that question. “He asked me at first, but he also asked about my

opinion later on. I wanted to come. What‘s the matter?”

Jodie held her arm and said, “Let‘s go. We‘re leaving.”

Feeling confused, Margaret said, “You‘ve got to tell me what‘s happening. I can‘t leave. Christopher will

be upset if I leave on my own.”

“He doesn‘t care about you at all, so why should you care if he‘s mad or not? I see it now that he doesn‘t

love you. He‘s just torturing you. He‘s killing you!” Jodie was losing it. Her expression was grim.

Margaret was taken aback by her words. “Jo, what are you talking about?”

Jodie was livid. “Do you know whose engagement party this is today? It‘s Jenson‘s! I didn‘t even plan on

telling you. I only found out about it when I contacted Jenson yesterday. How could Christopher not

know? Yet, he still brought you here. Is he trying to make you suffer? Or is he doing this to provoke

Jenson? I don‘t know if you love Jenson or not, but he loves you. He agreed to a marriage his family had

arranged for him so that he could return to the country. He only agreed to the marriage because he

wanted to be close to you, and he wanted to see you. He has never even met the bride before today. It

was Christopher‘s condition. Jenson can only return if he‘s engaged. Do you understand?”

Margaret was stunned. She looked over at Christopher, who was chatting away with the guests. She

could not believe that he could do such a thing. How could he do that?
