Kathleen looked at that woman coldly.

Astrid Holloway, what a coincidence. Did they spend last night together? No wonder Felix specially mentioned on the invitation card, for me to come earlier. Did he do that just to make me witness this scene? Interesting.

“Kathleen?” While Astrid appeared to be surprised, a flicker of smugness flashed through her eyes. “Kathleen, don’t get it wrong. Actually…”

“Shut up!” Frustrated, Christopher looked at Astrid and stopped her from talking.

Christopher strode over to Kathleen and said calmly, “It’s not what you think. I’ll explain to you later.”

“Oh.” Kathleen nodded.

In fact, she would not be bothered even if he did not explain it to her, as sexual attraction was common.

Astrid’s face flushed with embarrassment after she got chided by Christopher, and she started whimpering.

Kathleen’s lips curled into a sarcastic smile. “I really can’t tell that you used to be a war correspondent.”

Astrid was shocked to see how calm Kathleen was, as though she was not at all bothered with Astrid, and what Astrid did was child’s play.

At this moment, Felix walked out of the room with a crutch in his hand.

With his face darkened, he asked, “What’s going on?”

“Grandpa, it’s nothing to do with Christopher. It’s all my fault.” With tears trickling down Astrid’s cheeks, she looked heart-rending.

Felix questioned gravely, “What exactly happened?”

Both Christopher and Astrid remained silent.

Felix looked at Christopher with a solemn look and reproached, “Christopher, as a man, you should bear the responsibility.”

“I was drunk last night, so I couldn’t have…” Christopher did not believe that he had done such a thing with Astrid.
