An Impossible Marriage

Chapter 125

“Jo, don’t worry about me. I’m fine. I’ve waited for so many years, haven’t I? I can continue to do so. Trust me. I’m okay.” Margaret kept the photo and forced a smile, as she didn’t want Jodie to be as anxious as she was.

Margaret’s initial plan was to find out the truth about the plane crash. If the incident had nothing to do with her father and he was also one of the victims, she could tell Christopher all the details. She would then finally be released from her sins and could clear her father’s name. After doing all those, she could finally confess her pregnancy to Christopher. Of course, she dared not think further about the last matter.

Now that things didn’t go as planned, she would have to start all over again. That would be her way forward until she couldn’t hide her stomach from Christopher anymore. If Christopher knew about her pregnancy, he would make her leave the Lewis residence after she delivered the baby. This was not the ending Margaret wanted!

When Margaret arrived at the Lewis residence, night had already fallen. Although the house was brightly lit, it was not that bright, which meant Christopher was not home yet.

As Margaret had been out the whole day, she was so tired she couldn’t move. With heavy footsteps, she walked into the house. Then, Margaret took a bath and went to her room to lie down. At that moment, she didn’t even have the appetite to eat.

Seeing this, Elizabeth was worried that Margaret’s gastritis would act up again. Hence, she brought the food to Margaret’s bed. “Meg, you have to eat something. Don’t starve yourself. Mr. Lewis told me that he would not be coming back today. After you finish the food, get some rest.”

Margaret sat up and started eating. Suddenly, she felt like throwing up. She immediately rushed to the bathroom and vomited everything out. When she was rinsing her mouth, she noticed that her face was

abnormally pale.

Elizabeth was so worried at the scene that her brows furrowed, “Meg, why are you vomiting? I hope there is nothing serious going on with your body. Even if Mr. Lewis doesn’t care about your health, you must look out for yourself more!”

Feeling weak, Margaret dragged her body back to the bed. “I’m fine. Elizabeth, please take the food away. I really don’t feel like eating today.”

Elizabeth let out a sigh as she left the room with the food. After much consideration. she secretly called Christopher. “Mr. Lewis, Mrs. Lewis vomited again. Besides that, she hasn’t had dinner, and her face is pale. I can’t convince her to eat. If you may, please care for her as her body is already weak to begin with..”

At the other end of the phone, Christopher didn’t say a word about the situation. Instead, he hung up immediately.

Heartbroken, Elizabeth wiped away her tears. After looking toward the stairs, she went back to her room resignedly.

Over at the CEO’s office of Lewis Corporation, Christopher stared at his phone in a daze. After snapping out of it, he immediately stood up, grabbed his coat, and took the elevator downstairs.

Meanwhile, downstairs in the Rolls-Royce, Noah noticed Christopher exiting the building. He quickly got out of the car and opened the back door for Christopher. “Mr. Lewis.”

“Go to the Lewis residence,” said Christopher impatiently.

“Okay.” Noah could sense that Christopher was not in a good mood. Thus, he carefully drove toward the Lewis residence.

Along the way home, Noah drove past a pharmacy. Suddenly, Christopher ordered, “Stop the car.”

Upon hearing that, Noah hurriedly slammed on the brakes. Christopher got off the car and walked into the pharmacy. He then said to one of the employees, “I want some medicine that treats gastric problems.” Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

The employee asked, “Is the person having gastritis? Can you elaborate more on the symptoms? Is the individual an adult or a child?”

At that, Christopher frowned. After giving the employee’s questions a brief thought, he answered, “The person’s appetite varies from time to time. Besides that, she keeps vomiting and looks pale. She is an adult.”

After buying the medicine, Christopher returned to the car with an icy expression. Looking at that, Noah dared not speak another word. He flooted the gas pedal and headed toward the Lewis residence. Shortly after, they arrived.

Christopher took the bag of medicine and walked straight to the bedroom. However, he didn’t look at the person on the bed. Instead, he threw the medication on the

bedside table and said, “Take your medicine.”

Margaret didn’t understand what Christopher was doing. She sat up and asked in confusion, “What’s that?”

Christopher didn’t answer her question. Instead, he pulled at his tie as he was starting to get impatient.

Margaret grabbed the medication and had a look at it. “I’m fine. I don’t need it.”

As there was nothing wrong with her stomach, she had no reason to eat the medicine. Besides that, most of the medications out there were not safe for pregnant women.
