Chapter 141
Christopher’s hand that was flipping through the pages of the document paused. However, he was quick to recover his repose and said, “This matter has ended, so there’s no point bringing it up again. Besides, the perpetrator was caught. Do you understand me?”
Margaret froze and even stopped breathing for a moment. She could feel a deep gash forming in her heart.
It’s not that he doesn’t know the perpetrator is Megan. He doesn’t want it to be her… In the end, he covered up the truth even when Megan had almost killed me and caused me to miscarry…
After a short period of silence, she stubbornly said, “What if I want to overturn the case? What if I still want to pursue the truth? I don’t care if Megan is your lover or not. If you want to protect her, that’s your problem. I’m the victim here, so I have the right to decide whether or not I want to keep pursuing the case!”
Only then did Christopher close the document and look up at her. He was expressionless as he said, “You said it’s my problem if I want to protect her. So do you think there’s any meaning to it if you pursue the case?”
She was speechless because he was right. He was Christopher, a prominent figure in the whole of Dellmoor. On the other hand, she was known as Mrs. Lewis, whom many women envied, but in reality, she was a worthless accessory to him. He could abandon her at any time. How can I win against the person that he wants to protect?
At the end of the day, the ten years’ worth of feelings he had for her were nothing but piled up hatred. That was why their relationship was so fragile and why he could be so cruel.
A doleful smile tugged on her lips. “If that’s the case… I don’t owe you anything else. I got pregnant because you wanted a child, but the person you’re protecting killed it. You two are the reason that the child couldn’t be born. Let’s end things here. Tell me, when are we going to sign the divorce papers?”
Fredrick, who was standing at the side, could not watch them any longer, so he interrupted the heated conversation. “Mr, Lewis, this matter is not Mrs. Lewis’ fault. Please reconsider.”
