Chapter 288

It was heart-wrenching for him to hear her crying. Christopher’s heart ached as daggers were stabbing his chest. He felt hurt as if he was suffocating and completely out of breath.

He raised his hand and stroked Yuliana’s head gently without saying anything.

Yuliana cried for a while. Finally, she was weary and soon fell asleep in Christopher’s arms.

In the end, the plate of pasta got mushy and sticky.

Christopher carried Yuliana up and put her back to bed. She looked tired and worn, as she had not slept well these days.

Christopher wiped away the tears on her face gently and brushed away the hair stuck on her face.

He sat by the bedside for a while before taking the plate of pasta downstairs.

Christopher made his way to the yard outside and lit a cigarette. He stared at the sky, which was covered in complete darkness.

The darkness, coupled with the hot and stuffy air, made him feel suffocated.

He stayed until Joyce got out of the car and walked straight to him.
