An Impossible Marriage novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126

It did not take Margaret long to figure out it was Elizabeth who informed Christopher about her condition. Otherwise, he would not have returned so suddenly and even brought her some medicine.

Looking at her icily, Christopher said, “I didn’t rush home from work just to see you throwing a tantrum at me. Take medicine if you feel sick!”
