Chapter 169 I Am Begging You
Zachary sat down beside her and patted her on the back of her hand. “Alright now. The doctor said you can’t get
angry with your current state. Getting pissed off and ruining your health because of them isn’t worth it!” Winnie
glanced at him and dodged his hand. After letting out a hum, she said nothing more.
She calmed down and asked in a worried voice, “Is there really something between Christopher and the girl from
the Ziegler family? Her parents aren’t all that great. I doubt their daughter is any different from them. Surely
Christopher doesn’t have such bad taste? Also…” Winnie’s voice trailed off.
Zachary was picking up the teacup to take a sip when he heard her. He glanced at her and asked, “Also what?”
Face glum, Winnie was silent for a moment. “Also, although I’m not very satisfied with Yuliana, the two of them are
already married after all. She is probably 5 or 6 months pregnant. Christopher is a jerk if he really did something
like that!”
Zachary took a sip of tea. “Christopher knows his boundaries. We can just get someone to check what is really
going on.”
They looked at each other before Winnie sighed, “How worrisome!”
Before school was over, Yuliana received a call from Joyce asking her and Christopher to go back to the Solace
residence for dinner.
She was caught by surprise.
In the past, Layla was always the one who contacted her regarding anything with the Solace family.
Fiona saw Yuliana still sitting in a daze even after the school bell rang. She packed up her things and walked over to
her desk before she knocked on the table. “Aren’t you leaving?” she asked, bringing Yuliana back to her senses.
Yuliana shook her head, and with a smile, she replied, “I am.”
With that, she picked up her bag and went out of the office with Fiona. When she went downstairs, she saw Spencer
and another teacher walking up to her. They were leaving after work.
“Ms. Livingstone! Ms. Clark!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey nodded and smiled as they walked toward the school gate together.
“You didn’t drive today, Mr. Carl?” Mr. Wilson, who was with Spencer, asked.
Spencer pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and answered with a smile, “My car had a small issue on the
weekend. I took it to get it fixed.”
Fiona glanced at him and then at Yuliana before she quietly shook her head. “Ah, unrequited love,” she thought
When they reached the school gate, Mr. Wilson jabbed Spencer, prompting the latter to glance at him without any
giving other reaction.
Disappointed in Spencer for not doing anything, Mr. Wilson gave it a thought and suddenly offered, “Ms. Livingstone
and Ms. Clark! Mr. Carl and I are going for a seafood boil. Join us!”
Fiona didn’t respond and only looked at Yuliana subconsciously
Yuliana was about to refuse when she saw a familiar figure walking toward her, leaving her stunned.
Fiona, who noticed her strange reaction, looked in the same direction Yuliana was looking. She was also surprised.
If it weren’t for the person’s unique temperament, she would have thought that it was someone else who was
coming toward them.
Yuliana came back to her senses after they walked up to her. She looked up and asked in a low voice, “Why are you
here?”
Her eyes then fell on his head.
He had gotten a haircut. The blonde hair that initially covered his eyes was gone, leaving only his black roots
However, he could only get a crew cut as the black part was still a little short. The contours of his ears and face
were all exposed.
His red earring was particularly eye-catching.
Only then did Yuliana realize that his ears were somewhat wide and pointed like an elf’s
Due to their height difference, Christopher could smoothly sling his arm around Yuliana’s neck. He casually told her
that he was there to pick her up after school before he glanced at the three people with Yuliana.
“Dear, introduce your colleagues to me!” He smiled and suggested in a nonchalant tone.
His eyes finally fell on Spencer
Yuliana was a little embarrassed. She wasn’t used to being intimate with Christopher in front of her colleagues,
especially when they were standing at the entrance where there were other teachers, students, and even the
students’ parents who came to pick up their children.
She lightly slapped him on the arm. “Stand properly,” she scolded.
Her voice was still quiet. They have a kind of intimacy between lovers in which outsiders couldn’t intervene.
Christopher glanced at her with a face full of smiles. Not only did he not stand up straight, but most of his body was
tilted against Yuliana.
Yuliana had no choice but to introduce them. These are Mr. Carl and Mr. Wilson. This is Ms. Clark who shares an
office with me.” She then glanced at the man next to her. “This is my boyfriend, Christopher Solace. You must have
met him during Mr. Norris birthday party.”
“So you’re Mr. Carl Christopher smiled and commented in an odd tone. After looking at Spencer for another two
seconds, he turned to Fiona. “Ms. Clark, I’ll have to trouble you with taking care of Ana at school in the future”
He remembered Fiona as the only one who protected Yuliana when Margaret came to the school to cause
trouble
Fiona was taken aback at first, but she soon let out a sheepish titter. “It is Ms. Livingstone who has been taking care
of me!”
Fiona wasn’t wrong at all. Whenever she stumbled upon a problem at work, she would always ask Yuliana for a
solution. Yuliana had helped her a lot all these years.
Juxshire was a somewhat xenophobic city. She was not a local, but most of the teachers in the school were, so she
found it difficult to get along with everyone else when she first entered the school. If it weren’t for Yuliana, she
wouldn’t have known whether she could stand working here for so long
Christopher grinned upon hearing that “You can take care of each other then.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFiona couldn’t help but laugh “Ms Livingstone’s boyfriend seems like a nice person.”
Yuliana then brought up. “I can’t go for a seafood boil with you guys. I have something to do tonight. You should go
ahead I’ll treat you next time
After that. Yuliana said goodbye to the teachers and got in the car with Christopher
After getting in the car, Yuliana fastened her seat belt, and couldn’t help but stare at Christopher’s hair. “Why did
you suddenly cut your hair?” she asked.
Christopher started the car engine “Didn’t you say it’s too long? You told me to cut it, didn’t you?”
Yuliana stopped for a second there. She somehow recalls saying something like that.
However, she didn’t expect Christopher to do as she said.
Christopher looked much more refreshing and mature after cutting his hair.
But it was just the appearance that was different. No one could change their personality with a haircut.
After buckling up, Yuliana asked a question when she remembered something. “Did Joyce call you?”
Christopher started to drive slowly while he kept his eyes on the road.
He only hummed in reply. After getting into traffic, he added, “Don’t worry about her.”
Yuliana was surprised by his words Why not?”
Christopher tilted his head and looked at her. “Didn’t our last visit to the Solace residence taught you anything?”
Yuliana was silent for two seconds. We can’t possibly avoid them for the rest of our lives, can we?”
Moreover, it was mostly because Christopher refused to believe that Joyce called her.
Yuliana couldn’t imagine what the Solace family would think of her if she and Christopher didn’t go back for dinner
tonight.
Yuliana put her hand on his arm and coaxed softly. “Maybe they are calling us because something is wrong. Let’s go
back for dinner, okay?”
Christopher glanced at her hand. The satisfaction he felt almost made him blurt out an agreement.
As he made a turn, he drawled, “Ana, are you begging me?”
“Mm.” Yuliana pursed her lips and whispered. “You can think of it that way. So… please?”
