Chapter 7 I am Potent
Christopher appeared taken aback and said nothing in response.
1 asked softly. “What about our wedding night?”
I vaguely remembered waiting on the balcony the whole night.
That night, Christopher left our home without a word, leaving me anxious and puzzled.
At twenty–three, I had married the man that I secretly loved for many years. How could I not have expectations for our
marriage and for Christopher?
But it wasn’t until today that I found out that while I was eagerly waiting for him to come home, he was with another
Woman.
It was really ridiculous.
Christopher’s voice was cool as he said, “She had an accident while street racing that night. The police asked me to
pick her up.”
What a coincidence.
On the day of our wedding, she had an accident, and it was late at night. But I remembered that at the family banquet
two days after the wedding, she was there, without a scratch on her.
I lowered the car window, remained silent for a moment, and said calmly, Christopher, if you love her, we can get a
divorce.”
Christopher slammed on the brakes and stopped the car by the roadside. His gaze was fixed on me. His reaction was unexpected–halting the car, showing emotions previously unseen.
I never thought…
vibrating phone, indicating a new message.
His voice was interrupted by a vibrating phone, indicating a new message.
Christopher glanced at it with a hint of annoyance.
His expression suddenly turned cold.
He said, almost without hesitation, “I might have to go over and have a look.”
I suppressed the sadness welling up in my chest and tried to control my emotions. I glanced at him through the roadside lights.
Clearly, he used to be the one I longed for, but at this moment, I was somewhat disappointed.

Chapter 71 am Potent
I wearily pushed open the car door and got out.
In the moment of intense anger, I thought about divorce.
But Christopher was the one I’ve liked for so many years, I can’t give up easily.
I was afraid one day in the future, I would feel regretful.
1 let out a long sigh as the black Maybach sped away.
Looking at the moving traffic and flashing neon lights, 1 felt lonely for a long time.
I looked at the moving traffic and the flickering neon lights, and I felt a sense of loneliness that I had long been
unfamiliar with.
“What are you doing?” Elissa suddenly called me. Her voice was just like her, full of enthusiasm and brightness.
The early autumn wind blew, causing me to shiver. I adjusted my coat and walked across the street.
“Take a walk on the street.”
“I didn’t expect Mr. Valence to be in the mood to accompany you…”
“No. I’m alone,” I interrupted helplessly.
“He’s such a jerk. He didn’t stay with you on such a late night? Where are you?” Elissa instantly became angry.
I couldn’t help but laugh, “I’m in the Cloud District.”
“Wait. Ill come pick you up.”
After saying that, Elissa hurriedly hung up the phone.
In less than twenty minutes, a white Audi Q3 stopped in front of me.
She rolled down the window. “Get in.”
“So, what’s going on?”
After getting in the car, Elissa drove while giving me a stern look..
“Don’t tell me you just walk alone on the street.”
She seemed fiery, but she was more rational and careful than anyone else.
I never thought about deceiving her.
At that moment, I simply told her what had happened.
Elissa was shocked and cursed, “So Evelyn wants Christopher to divorce you? She’s a shameless b*tchi”

And Christopher already has a wife, but he’s still fooling around with other women. What the hell is he doing? I think he’s extremely stupid!”
“And what do you think?” Elissa asked after her outburst.
“I haven’t decided yet.” I shook my head.
Elissa patted my head with one hand. You’re usually smart, but you get confused when it comes to Christopher. A few meals have cost you a lifetime. Only you keep remembering: Christopher has probably long forgotten.”
Her words suddenly brought up the past, and I couldn’t help but feel a little dazed, “What meals?”
She raised her eyebrows. The meals Christopher treated you to in the cafeteria. Have you forgotten?”
How could I forget that? I fell for Christopher because of that.
My parents passed away early. My aunt, Beata Dylan, took me to her family.
She wanted to be good to me, but she also had to take care of her husband, Johnson Dylan, and her son, Bob Dylan.
I started working part–time in junior high. In college, I completely supported myself financially.
Once, I had to pay a fee unexpectedly, and after paying it, I didn’t have enough money for my living expenses. Due to malnutrition, I fainted at school, and Christopher took me to the school hospital.
When I woke up, a handsome young man was standing by.
The sunlight shone on him, making him seem like a radiant being. I was stunned with just one look at him. He didn’t say much; he just said, “You’re awake. The doctor said you’re malnourished. Pay more attention to your nutrition.”
“Thank you, who are you…
“No need to thank me. I have to go.”
The conversation was as distant and cold as he was.

However, later, when I went to the cafeteria, he or his friends would casually place freshly prepared meals in front me. Their reasons were lame, but they never made me feel embarrassed or inferior.
Elissa suddenly asked, “Tell me, was it really because of those meals? Or was it his appearance that attracted you?”
“Both, I guess.” I didn’t deny it.
Bon!
