Chapter 117 Busy Being A Father

Half an hour later, Christopher finally arrived at the airport.

Seeing the two people in the private room, he glanced at Raymond and said, “You go out first.”

Raymond shifted his gaze between Christopher and Xandria. He asked, “Is there anything I can’t listen to?”

Christopher blurted, “Yes.”

Raymond looked at Xandria again. She was pursing her lips. Her face turned pale as she stared at Christopher angrily.

After a few seconds, he finally stood up and said, “I’m going out to have a smoke.”

When he passed by Christopher, he raised his hand and patted the latter on the shoulder.

When the door was closed, there were only Christopher and Xandria left in the private room.

Despite Xandria being stubborn earlier that she was not afraid of Christopher, she was still a little scared. when she was facing him alone.

The first time she saw Christopher fighting was in the second semester of her sophomore year.

She wrote a love letter to Christopher during the first semester of sophomore year.

During the summer vacation of freshman year, she was enthusiastic about a boy band. Her idol had blonde hair and could sing and dance well. Moreover, his appearance was cute and handsome, looking very charming especially when he was performing on the stage.

To her surprise, Christopher had the same blonde hair soon after the commencement of their sophomore year. He looked even more handsome than the boy band she idolized. Instantly, she fell hard for Christopher and soon forgot about her previous idol.

Unable to contain her affection, she wrote a love letter to Christopher and asked someone to put it in his

book.

In fact, writing love letters was quite old-fashioned at that time.

Nonetheless, in order to express her sincerity, she wrote it by herself regardless.

Never did she expect the result of her love to be trampled mercilessly.

Therefore, her love for Christopher turned into annoyance.

At that time, she was not so afraid of Christopher. She just felt ashamed to meet him every time, so she avoided him as much as possible in school.

What really scared her was that she saw Christopher fighting with several gangsters outside the school during the second semester of her sophomore year.

The head of the gangsters had a certain influence in her school area. They often wandered around her school in groups. Many people in the school were afraid of them as they often harassed girls who were alone nearby.

She and Yuliana had bumped into those people before. Fortunately, they were together at that time. Nonetheless, there were a few girls who got harassed, and it was said that Annabelle was one of them. In fact, she thought that Annabelle might not be harassed. It could be out of her own will.

There was once she saw Annabelle and the head of the gangster sitting outside the school drinking coffee. The head of the gangster treated Annabelle flatteringly like a pug.

It was said that Christopher fought with those gangsters because of Annabelle. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

It was at night that time. Because of the power outage in the school, she and Yuliana finished the evening self-study session one hour ahead of schedule. When they came out of the school, the driver who was supposed to pick them up had not arrived yet, so they walked near the school.

Unexpectedly, many students rushed in one direction heading the same way. She and Yuliana were curious and also ran over together.

In an alley, those gangsters, who had been wandering around the school for a long time, were beaten by Christopher with blood covering their faces. At that time, Christopher’s face was particularly gloomy. He

looked like a monster that came from hell.

After that night, Xandria had nightmares for nearly half a month. The scene continued lingering in her mind until now.

That was why Xandria was afraid of Christopher.

Xandria could not help gulping twice. The muscles of her entire body were tense. She looked at Christopher vigilantly and asked, “What do you want to do?”

Christopher took a seat and stared at Xandria for two seconds. Then, he laughed and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t beat you up.”

Xandria fell into silence.

Christopher poured a cup of coffee and took a sip. Then, he opened his mouth and said, “I’m here to apologize to you.”

Xandria was stunned. “Apologize? What for?”

Christopher gazed at her. “For the love letter you wrote to me in high school. When I was in the studio with Annabelle at that time, the love letter fell out of the book suddenly. We didn’t know that the equipment in the studio was turned on at that time.”

Xandria looked at him in a daze and forgot to react.

Christopher paused before continuing. “Although it was not my intention to embarrass you in front of all the teachers and students, I did cause you trouble. Therefore, I want to apologize to you.”

Xandria was still silent, or perhaps, she did not know what to say.

After so many years, Christopher actually apologized to her. It was incredible.

She pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and asked, “Why do you suddenly apologize to me?”

Christopher pondered for a while and said, “I’m going to marry Yuliana soon. Aren’t you her friend? We will be meeting very often in the future. I don’t want her to be caught in a dilemma between us. Besides, I do owe you an apology.”

The apology had gotten delayed for a few years. At first, it was because of the arrogance of the youngsters who could not put their pride aside to say “I’m sorry.” As time went by, it seemed that it did not matter anymore.

Although Xandria had figured out the answer in her heart, she was still moved by Christopher’s words upon hearing him.

However, what surprised her more was when she heard that Christopher was going to marry Yuliana.

She asked in surprise, “Are you going to marry Yuliana?”

Christopher raised his eyebrows. “Didn’t she tell you yesterday?”

Xandria pursed her lips without saying anything. Maybe it was not that Yuliana did not tell her, but that she did not give Yuliana a chance to do so.

After pondering for a while, she frowned and asked, “Are you marrying her because of the baby in her belly or because you like her?”

Christopher replied, “That’s between Yuliana and me. I don’t need to explain it to you, do I?”

Hearing that, Xandria got angry again.

“What a jerk!” she cursed inwardly.

Thinking of the way Yuliana looked when Yuliana told her yesterday that she liked Christopher, Xandria felt the urge to blow Christopher’s head off.

She thought, “Why would such a person like Christopher deserve Yuliana’s love?”

Before Raymond finished smoking a cigarette, Christopher came out of the room.

“You’re leaving now?”

Christopher looked at him with a smile. “Do you think I’m as idle as you?”

Raymond scoffed. “What keeps you so busy?”

Among them, Christopher was considered to be the idlest person.

Christopher said, “I’m busy being a father, okay?”

“Who are you fathering?” Raymond thought that he was joking.

Christopher said, “Not you definitely. I don’t have a stupid son like you!”

Raymond raised his leg and kicked him but it was in vain. Christopher dodged it easily. He smiled and turned around to walk away.

Raymond stared at his back for a while and felt that there was something unusual with what Christopher just said.

After smoking, he went back to the private room and saw Xandria sitting there, frowning with a darkened face. She was holding a cup of coffee in her hand but did not drink it.

He asked, “What did Chris just say to you?”

Xandria came back to her senses and glared at him. “Chris? Don’t you feel disgusted calling him that?”

Raymond raised his eyebrows and teased, “What? Are you jealous? I can also call you Xani!”

Xandria’s face became warm as she roared, “Get lost!”
