An Impossible Marriage Chapter 156

Christopher did not bother getting up to answer the phone. His tone was slightly annoyed at being disturbed. “Hello?”

Megan’s voice sounded on the other end of the line. “Christopher, thank you for helping my family. We would’ve gone bankrupt if it weren’t for you. You’re so nice. My parents said that they want to invite you to dinner. I think you must be tired of socializing outside too, so why don’t you come to my place tomorrow? I’ll cook for you personally, all right?”

Before he could respond, Margaret turned her back to him and covered her ears. It’s already in the middle of the night, yet she still won’t stop. How gross!

She did not expect that Christopher would not only indulge Megan but also easily agree to her previous conditions just to disgust Margaret. Although it was Margaret who suggested that he help the Jenkins family, his current acts obviously had nothing to do with her.

Christopher noticed the movement behind him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. “All right, I’ll come over tomorrow morning.”

Even though the call ended, Margaret’s heart still felt stuffy, so she naturally could not fall asleep.

Yet, the man seemed to have fallen asleep a short while later. She was so angry that she did not want to lie in the same bed with him, so she grabbed a quilt and went to the guest room.

Early the next morning, Christopher’s phone rang incessantly. He had answered the calls and placed them on speaker mode so that even Margaret could hear Megan’s mushy words from the guest room.

Having had poor sleep last night and waking up to this, Margaret was furious, Disregarding everything else, she went out barefooted to stand on the stairway, cursing, “Can you just stop for one second!”

After a brief silence, Christopher came out of the bedroom. He had changed into a suit and seemed ready to go out. When he saw her, his expression was indifferent as he walked past her down the stairs.

Margaret’s hands clenched into fists. One day, I will no longer be able to endure this…

At approximately ten o’clock in the morning, Jodie suddenly called her. “Meg, come out for a bit. I need to talk to you. That Mr. Xenos sent another letter!”

Before even hanging up the call, Margaret began getting changed. “Find a place and wait for me. I’ll be right over!”

Although she lived a rather frustrating life, there was finally good news. She initially thought that the truth was still far away, but’unexpectedly, another letter from that man arrived again!

She only had one thought in her mind now-to hurry up and find out what happened back then. As long as her father was innocent, she could rightfully leave the Lewis family and Christopher! She did not want to live such a lowly life anymore, where she could not even refuse to kill her innocent child.

When Margaret arrived at the agreed cafe, Jodie took the letter out of her bag. The former hurriedly opened it. However, the contents disappointed her greatly, for it wrote: You don’t have to look for me because you won’t be able to find me. I can’t give you any more clues either. I can only tell you that your father was innocent. I’ve been burdened by this secret for far too long. If I don’t reveal this, I fear I won’t die in peace.

Margaret’s hands began to tremble after reading the letter. Why did this Mr. Xenos give me hope just to disappoint me again? So what if I know and believe that my father was innocent? Christopher won’t believe it, nor would anyone else.Just a few lines in a letter aren’t convincing at all. I need more than this! I want to overturn the conviction and clear my father’s name!

Noticing Margaret’s odd expression, Jodie asked, “What’s wrong, Meg? What did the letter say?”

Margaret almost bit through her lip. “Nothing useful at all… Mr. Xenos said not to find him. He said that we won’t be able to find him, and he won’t give me any more clues. He can only tell me this much. He said that this secret has been bothering him for many years, and he revealed it because he would die with regrets if he didn’t. Does he mean that he can die without regrets now that he’s said it? What about me? He rekindled my hopes only to dash them again! What should I do, then?”
