That night, Christopher suddenly called when Kathleen was just about to sleep.

“Chris? Why are you calling so late?” She was a little surprised.

“Can you come out? I have something to tell you.” His voice was hoarse.

“Can’t you just tell me over the phone?” Kathleen asked curiously.

“I’m downstairs of your place.” Christopher looked up at the window of her room. “I won’t take much of your time.”

“Okay,” Kathleen agreed.

Then, she put on a white down jacket and went down.

Standing against the car door, Christopher looked sophisticated in his dark gray coat.

His expression was gloomy, though.

“Chris.” Kathleen walked up to him.

She wrapped herself in a white down jacket and cascaded her hair down to her waist. The sight of her delicate and adorable cheeks would make one feel the urge to hold her in their arms.

“Are you cold? Do you want to get into the car?” Christopher asked in a husky voice.

Kathleen shook her head. “It’s okay. I’m wearing snow boots.”

She had put on a pair of snow boots with rabbit ears.

Christopher looked deeply at her before saying, “I’ve received the test result from the police.”

Stunned, Kathleen did not understand his words for a moment, but soon, realization dawned on her.

“Nothing had happened between her and me. In truth, she had prepared the blood on the bedsheets in advance,” Christopher explained.

Anyhow, he had proved his innocence.

“My gosh, how bold of her!” Kathleen said in disbelief.

“She wouldn’t dare to do so if she didn’t have her grandpa’s tacit approval,” said Christopher coldly. “Of course, she couldn’t have planned this matter alone. They probably did not expect I would go to the police when planning this.”
