Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 480

“Alright. No matter what decision you make, I’ll always support you. If you don’t want to hold out any longer, go ahead with the divorce. I’m sure you’ll find a better man,” Christopher said.

Xyla smiled bitterly. “Why bother? I’m already so advanced in years.”

“Just listen to yourself. You’re my sister, the daughter of the Jackson family, for goodness’ sake. Hordes of men vie for your attention, I’m sure.”

Xyla looked at him, teary-eyed. “Chris, thank you for your support. I was a fool to insist on marrying Geoffrey back then. I was blind, and refused to listen to everyone’s advice.”

Her remorseful expression broke Christopher’s heart. He approached her, and put an arm around her shoulder, patting her gently.

“Should I teach Geoffrey a lesson for you? Just a word from you, and I’ll do anything you ask of me.”

Xyla shook her head. “No. He has never mistreated me over the years. It’s just that he didn’t love me as much as I wanted him to. I really had it coming. I just want to quickly let go of everything, and start anew. I still have the rest of my life to live.”

Christopher nodded. “Good that you think that way. Just tell me if you need help.”

Xyla rested her head on his shoulder, and nodded. “Thank you, Chris.”

Geoffrey rinsed his face in the washroom, and looked at himself in the mirror. He thought he was seeing double as his vision blurred.

He couldn’t believe this was happening to Sebastian.

All along, he had been very strict with his son. He knew he wasn’t an easy-going father, and definitely not one who was kind and gentle. In fact, he bordered on being harsh, almost cruel to his son.

That thought filled his heart with guilt. He was so harsh and strict with Sebastian not because he wanted to make Sebastian filial, but because of another reason.

It was because he was furious. Not with Sebastian, but with another person—and he vented his anger on his son.

Geoffrey pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. He wasn’t sure if the other party would answer his call, because it was Sydney.

After a while, the call went through; the other party greeted Geoffrey before he had a chance to speak. “Hello.”
