Chapter 69 Using the Same Old Tactic to Bother You

Angela took out her phone and dialed a contact from her phonebook. Her previous speed dial setting

was Christopher.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Christopher stopped in his tracks when he felt his phone vibrate. He took it out and saw that it was

Angela.

Just as he was about to answer, James turned around and asked why he stopped walking.

“Angela is calling.” Christopher gave James his phone.

James squinted his eyes when he saw the name on the screen. “Hmph! She finally couldn’t hold it any

longer. I thought she was acting tough and wanted to leave the family. Is she trying to use the same old

tactic to bother you?”

If it had been before, Christopher might have had the same thoughts as James. However, Christopher

was a bit uncertain after the unpleasant conversation with Angela last time.

However, James snatched his phone and hung up, even turning the phone off.

“If she wants to beg for mercy, she must show some sincerity. Don’t defend her!” said James as he

patted Christopher’s shoulder. “Hurry up. We still have some important business to do. You’ve prepared

so much for it. Don’t delay it. If you can get this deal done, Old Mr. Sanders will think you are

impressive. Then, you’ll have a say in your marriage with Fanny.”

Christopher hesitated. However, when he heard Fanny’s name, his expression softened. Then, he put

his phone back in his pocket.

James is right. I need to work hard to get this deal for the sake of Fanny. Angela must have called me

for some trivial matter.

As the identity of Jonathan’s brother and with the help of James, Christopher had prepared well and

finally got this deal. To share the good news with Fanny, he drove to the school and waited for her to

finish class.

After school, Fanny found the parking spot based on Christopher’s text message.

Fanny liked to wear white as it symbolized purity. She looked like an angel as she happily ran towards

Christopher. “Christopher! I’m here. Did I make you wait too long?” With a joyful expression, Fanny sat

in the passenger seat and shyly looked at him.

Christopher helped her fasten her seatbelt before taking out a dessert bag from the back seat. The bag

was filled with her favorite sweets. “Take your time. What if you fall? Your health is poor, so you should

be more careful.”

Facing Christopher’s concern, Fanny obediently nodded and said, “I know. Stop nagging.” Then, she

took the dessert bag and saw it was her favorite cupcake. She smiled sweetly and said, “It’s the one I

like.”

“I’ll never forget what your preferences are.” Christopher looked at the time and casually asked. “Did

Angela call you today?”

While waiting for Fanny, he called Angela back, but no one answered.

Fanny took a bite of the cake and pursed her lips. “No. You know she doesn’t like me. I try to avoid her

at school so she won’t be angry at me.”

Christopher frowned and was slightly displeased. “You don’t have to be so hard on yourself.”

“I’ve already received so much. I just hope everyone can be happy and not fight because of me.” Fanny

lowered her head and looked remorseful.

Looking at her, Christopher felt distressed and reached out to hold Fanny’s hand. “Fanny, it’s her fault,

not yours. Let’s not talk about her anymore. Do you know why I’m so happy today?”

“Why?”

“Thanks to James, I got the contract with Cylops Company. With this contract, I can enter the company

and talk to my grandfather about our marriage.”

Hearing her words, Fanny was momentarily stunned. Then, she threw herself into Christopher’s arms

and said happily, “Christopher, there’s no need to rush. I’ll wait for you no matter how long it takes. We

will definitely be together.” She nestled in his embrace so close that he could smell the sweet fragrance

from her whenever he lowered his head.

She was nothing compared to Angela, who wore faded, outdated clothes and smelled of cheap laundry

detergent.

Fanny held him with her delicate arms and shyly raised her head. When she looked at Christopher’s

handsome face, her heart started to race.

With the love of his life in his arms, Christopher gulped hard and fixed his gaze on her rosy lips. Then,

he leaned down and kissed her.

They kissed passionately, and their breaths grew heavier.

The narrow space inside the car suddenly felt even more cramped.

Fanny gasped and boldly wrapped her arms around his neck as she offered herself. “I like you. I will

only be yours.”

Christopher’s heart thumped as he tightly embraced Fanny.

Inside the classroom, Jessica looked around but couldn’t find Angela anywhere. Everyone had already

left. Unable to wait any longer, she asked someone if they had seen Angela, but the person said

Angela hadn’t even shown up for class.

At that moment, Jessica’s expression changed drastically. Angela didn’t attend class? She didn’t

answer her phone or come to class. Did something happen to her? Jessica pondered, knowing that

Angela was treating someone named Jonathan. Could she be with him?

After searching for a while, she found the number Angela had given her last time and dialed it. After a

few rings, someone answered the phone.

“Hello, I’m Angela’s classmate. My name is Jessica. I wanted to ask if Angela is with you.”

Hearing Jessica’s anxious voice, Sebastian was taken aback and sensed something was wrong.”

Jessica, Angela is not with us. Did something happen to her?”

Sebastian hurriedly comforted Jessica. Then, he asked a few more questions before hanging up the phone.

Jonathan stared at Sebastian in silence.

“Angela’s classmate called and said that she has gone missing.”

Jonathan squinted his eyes and made a phone call as he pushed his wheelchair out the door. “Hello,

this is Jonathan. I have something I need you…

As soon as the door opened, the chilly wind rushed in. Sebastian quickly grabbed a blanket from the couch and chased after him.

After reporting to the police, the Kins Family was notified.

Jessica waited at the police station nervously. Her eyes were swollen from crying.

James was extremely displeased as he dialed Angela’s number multiple times, but it was always switched off.

Losing his patience, he sent a text message. ‘Angela, don’t push your luck now. Stop this instant!”
