Chapter 149

After knowing what had happened, Margaret was a little fearful. She said to Christopher, “I got it. I’ll put it in the backyard tomorrow and won’t let it into the house. Will that do? As long as it’s in the backyard, you can’t do anything to it, okay? Deal?”

Christopher felt uncomfortable after the whole ordeal of touching the cat. He went toward the stairs and called for Elizabeth to change the bedsheets. After that, he went into the bathroom and slammed the door closed.

When Elizabeth went upstairs, she looked at Tabby and instantly understood what had transpired. She dared not utter a word but quickly changed Christopher’s bedsheets. After that, Elizabeth picked up Tabby and placed it in the art room. Only after locking the windows and door of the art room did she finally relax.

After getting awakened by the incident, Margaret could not fall asleep again. The sound of running water coming from the bathroom was incomparably loud in the otherwise silent night. It was almost too much for her ears to bear. Finally, the sound stopped after half an hour. Christopher then walked out with a gloomy expression and a towel around his waist.

Margaret could not be bothered with him at all. She pulled the blanket over her head and tried to sleep. Suddenly, she felt the bed space next to her dip. Does Christopher want to sleep here tonight? Wait… He came out of the bathroom in just a towel, didn’t he?
