Chapter 99 

Thats absurd! Margaret sneered inwardly before replying, “Are you kidding me? I was only eight years old when I joined the Lewis family! At that time, he was already eighteen years old and probably had a few girlfriends before. How would a teenager have feelings for a kid? Moreover, we got married because of what happened three years ago. It would make more sense to say that our marriage is just a show for public relations. We‘re still together because he knows that there will be tittle–tattle about our relationship if we divorce. He‘s probably taking his revenge on me by forcing me to be stuck in this marriage for my whole life. He hates me to the extent that he‘s willing to sacrifice the rest of his life to gain revenge. Hence, it‘s ridiculous to say that he likes me!” 

Hearing that, Elizabeth said straightforwardly, “Do you really think so? If Mr. Lewis really dedicates his whole life to taking revenge on you, it‘s more like torture to himself. He won‘t even bother to look at you if he truly despises you. If that‘s the case, he wouldn‘t have touched you!” 

Elizabeth spoke tactfully but Margaret was aware of the meaning behind her words. In fact, Margaret had noticed Christopher‘s intimate acts toward her a few years back, and without a doubt, his actions made her skeptical about his feelings toward her. 

Nonetheless, she ruled out such an absurd possibility when she thought of the intense hatred in his gaze whenever he stared at her. “Let‘s not talk about this anymore. I will feel it if he has feelings for me. Unfortunately, all I could feel from him is resentment toward me.” 

Elizabeth breathed out a sigh and fell silent. 

After a long tiring day, Margaret went to bed early and had a few dreams. Waking up from her slumber, she could not remember anything from her dreams. Instead, all she could feel was her sweaty and sticky body.
