An Impossible Marriage

Chapter 197

So, I really do have nothing…

She held back her tears and forced a smile. “Thank you for telling me. I didn’t know that you thought of me like that. But now I do. I’m sorry that a toy like me was holding on to the title of Mrs. Lewis all this while when I don’t even deserve it,” she şaid.

Christopher loosened his hand from her chin and saw the pain in her eyes. He finally realized that she wasn’t as indifferent as he thought she was when he was involved. So, there are times when she feels sad too…

She couldn’t look in his eyes anymore, so she gently pushed him away and ran downstairs. Tabby’s leg was almost healed, so it jumped into her arms almost immediately. Later, she carried Tabby with her and went to the backyard. As she sat on the swing and swung, her tears started to roll down her cheeks. “Tabby, you’re the only one I have left. You have to stay healthy and well. What would I do if you were gone? What should I do?”

Tabby meowed lazily to her in response as if it could understand her.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her, and the sound of the footsteps got closer and closer to her. She hurriedly wiped off her tears and pretended to look like nothing had happened. With how things were, she thought that only Elizabeth or Fredrick would come to talk to her, so she didn’t want them to see her crying face. However, she was mistaken. The footsteps were Nina’s.

Nina walked to the swing next to Margaret’s as if it was the most natural thing to do and started swinging in synchronization with Margaret’s pace. “I heard everything just now. What he said earlier… was a little too much,” she said.

Margaret laughed mockingly at herself. “He’s always like that when he’s with me. Sometimes, I envy you guys because he’s always gentle with you. I’ve been living with him for more than ten years, and it’s like he’s never..”

However, Nina wasn’t there to mock Margaret. Instead, she felt bad for the latter. “From what I know about him, I think he only said all those because he was too mad. I don’t know what exactly happened between the two of you, but as a woman, I have a hunch that he was lying. In the past, I couldn’t believe that he was in love with you. At one point, I even thought that you used all sorts of tricks like faking a pregnancy to get him to marry you. But now, I believe that he loves you. He’s the one who wanted to marry you back then, am I right?” Nina asked.

“What do you mean? Do you still think that he his feelings for the even after heung what he sad” Margaretuskel in contusion

Nina was slent for a while as she littera ber headw look at the stars in the sky and thought about what she wanted to sy “Alter all those years that he took care of you? You can’t possibly think that he married you because he wants to get his revenge on you by making you liis coy, do you llibal’s really the case, heil surely to worsefur worse than you can ever imagine Besacles, why woull he spend the rest of lus life playing around with you. That slovesn’t sound like something he woult do. I think that whatever he said at that noment was the opposite of what he really thought the yot angry after you said you don’t love u, right? Look, what he wants is your love

is a lover, nor your familial alleenon.” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

After a pause, she continued. “You’re really silly.clo you know that I love is what he wanice, based on his personality, there’s no way lie il suo for urything else To be honest, I loved him before and even investigateul husle. But I coulent in any scandal about him. The only woman that he will associated with was a woman callcal Megan. Given his status, don’t you think that he’s too clean. Most chien out there have blocks of women around them. Moreover, isn’t Megan your tepsister from the same mom? Do you really think that such coincident’s really can I don’t junk so. Iusicad, Itunk that he doesn’t have anything to do with Megan al all, and he only said that to make you angry because you kept thinking of lumas your brother or dad.”

Margaret had never been on goud terms with Nin, especially after they fought Other than that, they could never see eye-to-eye. But.. why do I feel that she has a point there?
