Chapter 171

That afternoon, Elizabeth created a ruckus in the kitchen as though she were venting her frustrations.

When it was time for dinner, Nina was still asleep, and Elizabeth refused to wake her up.

Margaret was afraid that Christopher would return suddenly and take off his clothes to shower without realizing there was someone else in his room. She pondered for some time before deciding to give Christopher a call.

The call connected within seconds. Margaret didn’t bother beating around the bush and said, “Nina is in the Lewis residence, and she’s currently sleeping in your room. I had to rest in the guest room. When you return, you’ll have to be careful.”

Christopher was miffed. “Nina? Nina Moore? Mr. Moore said that she’d be putting up with us temporarily, but I thought she won’t be here until much later. Tell her to sleep in the guest room. I’ll call her when I’m done with work.”

After hanging up, Margaret relaxed slightly. It was past ten when Nina finally woke up. Feeling drowsy, Margaret told her, “I can only sleep in my own bed. This afternoon, I couldn’t sleep well in the guest room. Why don’t you sleep in the guest room? Christopher will be back a few days later.”
