Chapter 259 Apologize To Her

“Chris!” Leonard called out. He wanted to dissuade Christopher.

Inwardly, Leonard remarked, “Raymond is the host for this meet-up. These guests came from afar, too. We shouldn’t go overboard, considering we’re the host’s friends.”

However, Christopher ignored Leonard completely. The former continued to stare at Yocelyn with an icy cold expression.

Leonard knew Christopher had a quick temper.

“Alas, if Chris is offended, he won’t listen to anyone, regardless of who is present,” Leonard thought.

When Leonard felt his head ached slightly, he saw Yuliana pick up the card Christopher had thrown out. Then, she gently placed her hand on the back of Christopher’s hand. “Which card to discard?” she asked softly.

Christopher was momentarily stunned. His gaze landed on Yuliana. Noticeably, the iciness on his expression diminished a little. He glanced at the cards in Yuliana’s hand and said, “The first from the left.” His tone was a lot gentler by then.

His expression changed, too. A moment ago, he looked as though he would devour someone.

Even Leonard was shocked to witness such a scene.

Yuliana took the card that Christopher picked and discarded it. Then, Edward, who had been silent, voiced, “Yocelyn, apologize to Mrs. Solace.”

Both Yocelyn and Jimmy were stunned upon hearing that.

“Mrs. Solace?” Yocelyn looked toward Yuliana with a frown.

Yuliana, too, was stunned upon hearing what Edward had said. Earlier, when Yuliana and Xandria arrived, Raymond did not explicitly tell Edward and Jimmy about the relationship between Christopher and Yuliana. Raymond also did not deliberately introduce Yuliana. He only addressed her as Ms. Livingstone.

That was why Jimmy called her Ms. Livingstone moments ago.

“I wonder why Edward could tell our relationship,” Yuliana thought.

As she thought about that, she heard what Yocelyn had said. At that moment, both Yuliana and Yocelyn’s gazes met.

“Apologize to her,” Edward voiced once again.

His tone was stern.

Yocelyn composed herself and pursed her lips tightly. Her eyes had already reddened. Still, she continued to look at Yuliana. Albeit unwillingly, Yocelyn said, “Sorry.” Verily, it was perfunctory.

After that, Edward spoke again. “Mr. Solace, Mrs. Solace, I’m sorry. I’m negligent in not disciplining my sister. Please forgive me. I’ll make her reflect on herself once we get back.”

Edward sounded very sincere.

In actuality, Yuliana did not hear what Yocelyn had said. The former would not even know what had happened if Christopher did not suddenly throw the card.

As such, Yuliana naturally did not feel angry.

“Since she has already apologized, there isn’t any reason for me to treat her harshly. I can’t ruin the mood when Raymond is the host,” Yuliana mused.

Yuliana tugged at Christopher’s clothes. The latter then looked at her.

The two of them exchanged glances silently for two seconds.

Christopher looked at Yocelyn with an eyebrow raised. He uttered, “It’s your turn now, Ms. Zimmerman.”

As such, the matter was put to rest. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Yocelyn kept her head down and did not look at Christopher. At that moment, she felt a warm blush rise to her cheeks She thought about what she had said to Christopher before this and wished she could find a hole. in the ground to hide.

This time, Yocelyn came to Juxshire with her eldest brother, Edward. Initially, she had already planned to meet her friend. However, the friend stood her up to attend to some urgent matter. Since Yocelyn was too bored on her own, she tagged along with Edward.

In the beginning. Yocelyn came here with no expectations. She intended to kill time. She had never thought that she would get to know Christopher.

Christopher’s appearance alone was enough to make women fond of him. Moreover, his cold expression and quietness gave him an air of mystery. It made one feel attracted to him and want to pry him out.

Thus, when Christopher headed outside to answer a call, Yocelyn immediately followed suit and went after him.

Yocelyn had always been bold in doing things. As she was interested in Christopher, she flirted with him right

away.

She did not expect that Christopher was already married.

Yocelyn thought that Christopher looked young and was around the same age as her. From her point of view, Christopher did not look like a married man at all.

Therefore, it had never crossed her mind that Christopher had already married.

Deep down, Yocelyn was annoyed and angry when she realized she had nearly hooked up with Christopher, a married man. Nonetheless, she could only contain herself. She did not even dare to look into Christopher and Yuliana’s eyes.

With reddened eyes, Yocelyn got up from the chair. She choked back her tears and said, “I’ll stop playing. Jimmy, it’s better if you get back into the game.”

She then trotted out almost immediately.

After a short while, Xandria and Raymond came back together. Yuliana then left the poker table and returned the seat to Xandria.

They played for another few rounds. When it was almost seven o’clock, Raymond ordered several dishes. They had their dinner at the villa straight away.

It was getting dark after they finished their dinner.

Raymond then asked someone to bring coffee. After that, he got down to business with Edward and Jimmy.

Soon, it was around nine o’clock, and the group left the villa.

Jimmy was driving, and the lady he brought along was sitting in the passenger seat. Edward and Yocelyn were sitting in the back seat.

Jimmy expressed his amazement as he looked at the car in front of him. “I didn’t expect that Mr. Solace has already married at a young age.”

Edward smiled, “You aren’t observant enough, though you’re experienced in life.”

“Uh, how can you tell that?” Jimmy asked.

Edward exchanged glances with Jimmy through the rear-view mirror and responded, “It’s obvious. The wedding ring.”

That day, Edward had already noticed the ring on Christopher’s finger when he saw the latter. Edward had already speculated the relationship between Yuliana and Christopher when the two went in together. Edward knew his guess was correct when he caught sight of the ring on Yuliana’s finger.

As Edward turned to Yocelyn, he said, “Don’t think about him anymore. He’s not suitable for you.”

Yocelyn had already composed herself. She snorted and turned her head to another side. “Don’t worry. I’m not interested in married men,” Yocelyn answered.

Meanwhile, Yuliana was driving the car, since Christopher had drunk some wine that night.

In the afternoon, Yuliana tried driving Xandria’s car, and she got more skillful at it. However, as the night limited her vision, Yuliana had to pay more attention.

Christopher leaned against the back of the seat and fixed his gaze on Yuliana.

It was already half past ten when they arrived at Oceanview Apartment.

Yuliana parked the car steadily at the side of the road. Then, she looked at Christopher. Although his eyes.

were shut, Yuliana was unsure if he had fallen asleep. “Would you like me to call a designated driver for you?” she asked.

Christopher did not even move a muscle.

Yuliana held her breath for a moment and said, “Stop pretending. I know you’re still awake.”

Two seconds later, Christopher opened his eyes and looked at Yuliana steadily. “I’ve had alcohol.”

“So?” Yuliana questioned.

“I’ve had alcohol, but you still want to get rid of me. Yuliana, you’re too heartless, aren’t you? Furthermore, my son must be missing me. He hasn’t seen me for so many days. You can’t take away his right to enjoy fatherly love,” said Christopher.
