Chapter 36 Your Wife Bullied Me
I didn’t expect Isabella to even have a knack for managing a marketing account to promote gossip. Christopher was devastated.
Isabella said guiltily, “I’m sorry! We’re all family here, and they just care about your situation with Luna. Besides, think about it, if you and Luna do end up together, this video might actually become a cherished memory.”
Wow, gee! Thanks! Christopher was speechless.
Even though I’m sure they won’t have a happy ending, let’s just tell a white lie to appease him for now to get myself out of this.
Christopher was livid. D*mn you! Your apology isn’t even sincere!
“Right, about Bianca…” Isabella noticed Christopher’s grim expression and quickly shifted the topic. How should I put this? It’s a matter of life and death. But how can I justify where I got
my information
Christopher cast an irritated glance at Isabella but gave her a way out. “There’s something wrong with Bianca. Hayden just told me to keep my distance from her in the future, lest she does something reckless.”
Christopher kept things to himself. Neither Hayden nor Isabella would suspect anything.
Isabella was surprised, not expecting them to already know. This put her at ease.
Isabella beamed. “Thankfully you managed to… Ahem. evade a crisis.”
“Go to sleep!” Christopher’s face fell, so irritated by the sight of Isabella that he wanted her to disappear.
Isabella shrugged. Why are you so mad? Is it such a disgrace to be a virgin? Both you and your brother are virgins. You don’t see him feeling ashamed. Ah, I see. So this runs in the family, huh?
Christopher looked at her in bewilderment.
Did I just hear that right? Did she just spill the beans? So that incident back then was really just a hoax? Wait! That’s not the point! The point is, Alex’s a virgin like me! So those exclamation marks in the chat are not just about me?

He felt comforted knowing he was not alone and that Alexander was just like him. That was probably the only good news about that night.
Over at the Quirk manor, Alexander, who had just finished his work, suddenly felt out of sorts.
Then, he seemed to hear whispers coming from somewhere within the usually quiet residence.
Are they all awake in the dead of night?
Puzzled, Alexander checked his phone’s memo before bed, only to discover a video his mother had forwarded to him.
Curious, he clicked on it to take a look and was at a loss for words.

the time Christopher, exhausted to his bones, returned to his room, he received a call from Alexander.
hristopher suspected that Alexander had also seen the video, which was why he called him at such a late
Jur.
e was embarrassed to face others, but not when facing his brother, who was in a similar situation. Hah! He as been a virgin longer than me, and he has a wife!
riven by an inexplicable smugness, Christopher confidently picked up the phone.
lexander had initially called to make sure Christopher was fine because the latter had cried and even got n his knees, only to hear his complaints.
Did you watch the video?”
Yes.
‘Alex, your wife has been bullying me.”
‘But I think you sound fine.”
“You’ve changed. Are you even my brother?”
Alexander was speechless, wondering why his brother had become so dramatic after an outing with Isabella.
“Wait. You are my brother. Just now, Isabella mentioned that we are both virgins and that it runs in the family.”
Alexander was irked, feeling tempted to beat up his younger brother. “I’m hanging up.”
“Hey, wait a minute! I’ve got something important to discuss with you.” Christopher couldn’t be bothered to make himself feel better about being a virgin anymore and quickly seized the opportunity to discuss the investment.
“Isabella mentioned it to me. How about this? I’ll come by to pick you up tomorrow and sort this out.”
“Oh, you don’t have to make a trip here yourself. I can handle it.”
“This is a brand new area for Quirk Group that we’ve never ventured before.”
Christopher became anxious. “I’m serious. You can’t show up, or you’ll steal my thunder. I was planning to use this method to impress Luna!”
Alexander paused momentarily and said, “You can’t resort to threats.”
“Do you think I’m a fool? Of course I won’t!”
“So, you’re really not giving up?”
Alexander found himself at a loss for words, listening to his brother’s tearful voice on the other end of th 54
The following morning, Christopher unabashedly took the initiative to arrange a meeting with the professor, behaving as if nothing had happened. They agreed to meet in the hotel’s restaurant downstairs. where a breakfast buffet was served.
So much had happened yesterday. Luna could have chosen to hide from him, feel repulsed by him, or even embarrassed to be around him, all of which would indicate she treated her differently and that he still held a place in her heart.
