Chapter 38

Chapter 38 

Christopher was taken aback. Shortly after, he turned his head away and pursed his lips. “Don‘t you know how to light a cigarette?” 

When Margaret finally fathomed his meaning, she placed the cigarette between her lips amateurishly. Before she could light it up, Christopher had snatched away the cigarette, holding it between his fingers. “That‘s enough. I‘m not free tomorrow. Ask Casper to keep you company.”

He was holding Margaret‘s tiny, frail hands, and she was only eight years old at that time. Even now, she was still weak and delicate.
