Chapter 28 We Will Get Married

The person moved slightly after hearing the sound of the door being opened. Then, a woman’s soft, groggy voice was heard. “You’re back.” It looked as if she had just woken up.

Without any expression, Christopher hummed in response. Then, he said, “When did you arrive?” Annabelle sat up from the couch and held a pillow in her arms. As she looked at Christopher changing his shoes at the door, she said, “I’ve been here for a while. I thought you wouldn’t come back here tonight.”

Christopher glanced at her and noticed that she was wearing his black T-shirt. Then, he said, “If you are sleepy, you can go to the room. I’m going to take a shower.”

Annabelle asked, “What about you?”

“I’ll sleep on the couch.” Having said that, Christopher went straight to the walk-in closet.

“Christopher.” Annabelle looked at his side profile and asked, “About what you’ve said three years ago, does it still count?”

Christopher stopped in his tracks and was silent for a moment. Then, he turned to Annabelle and smiled lazily. “What did I say?”

“You said before that if I’m willing to do it, you will marry me,” Annabelle replied.

Having heard her remarks, Christopher’s eyes darkened. He walked to the couch and sat down. Then, he took out his cigarette box, lit a cigarette, and smoked slowly. “Aren’t you getting along well with that illegitimate child of the Ziegler family? What’s the matter? Did Harry dump you?”

Annabelle moved closer to Christopher and held his arm. After that, she leaned on his shoulder and smiled. “Are you jealous, Chris?”

Christopher tilted his head to glance at Annabelle. She smiled and added, “Harry and I are just trying to pass the time. You know very well that he won’t marry me, and it’s impossible for me to marry him.”

Christopher exhaled a puff of smoke and stared at it. “It’s all your fault. If you had agreed to marry him three years ago, he would definitely marry you without saying another word.”
