Chapter 148

Christopher knew that Margaret did not care how many women he got involved with outside of their home; She just wanted to argue with him for no reason at the moment. Thus, he remarked, “You should look after the cat properly. Don’t ever let it leave your sight. Else, who knows what might happen?”

Margaret stopped her actions and replied, “You can try kicking it out of the house if you have the guts to, Christopher. You wouldn’t like what I’ll do afterward, though.”

When he came back to his senses, he realized how foreign that feeling was to him and asked coldly, “What would you do if I kicked that cat out?”

Margaret locked gazes with him before replying sternly, “I know Megan is important to you. Since you enjoy comparing her to my cat, I’m more than happy to treat Megan the same way you behave around my cat.”
