Christopher’s mind was in disarray, so he slipped away shortly after he half–heartedly entertained the guests with Alexander for a bit. 

Alexander didn’t care much about Christopher, either. After all, he had made the latter stay just to discuss matters regarding Isabella. 

On the other side, Luna watched as Henry and Marjorie incessantly boasted about Bianca within their social circle, completely disregarding her. She had long since become numb to it. 

She could, however, feel a gaze lingering on her that made her uneasy. 

She glanced around, but there were too many people to identify who it was. As such, she could only move away and take a breather in the bathroom. 

The bathrooms the Quirk family arranged for their guests were located at the end of the hallway, with separate ones for men and women. 

Luna was just about to enter the ladies‘ bathroom when a strong force from behind abruptly shoved her in. 

“Ali!” Startled, Luna let out a scream. However, someone covered her mouth. 

Before long, she found herself pinned against the bathroom wall by a man. 

It was only then Luna got a clear look at that man. He seemed like a scion from a wealthy family whom she had seen a few times, but she wouldn’t exactly say she knew him. 

Luna glared angrily at that man. 

Triggered by her intense gaze, the man reached out to tug at her dress. 

“Trying to put on an act, huh, b*tch? I don’t care whose fiancée you are, 111 let you know today what it’s like to offend me…” 

up 

Luna heard the sound of her dress ripping. Her mind was in a whirl of confusion, unable to believe she 

welled with tears as she was in such a situation. She was too flustered to even scream, and her eyes struggled desperately. 

Sensing the man’s breath on her neck, Luna started bawling her eyes out. 

Just as utter despair surged within her, the door was forcefully flung open with a loud bang. 

“F*ck! Are you asking for trouble?” 

In an instant, Luna felt the force weighing on her case. She fell pathetically to the ground, and when she looked up helplessly, She saw Christopher, grasping the back of the man’s neck. 

His face was flushed with anger as he swung his fist toward the man, leaving the latter twirling in the air from the impact. 

When Christopher turned to look at Luna, he realized that the hem of her dress had been torn, revealing her fair thigh. He quickly averted his gaze and said, “Fix yourself up.”

After saying that, he tossed his coat toward her and dragged the man out of the bathroom. 

Christopher was so livid he clenched his fists so tightly that they creaked. A surge of indescribable anger burned within him, but fortunately, he was still rational enough to not make a scene out of the situation. 

Instead, he dragged the man to the deserted backyard, threw him onto the ground, and kicked him several 

times. 

When the man snapped back to his senses, he hastily shouted. “Christopher, are you out of your mind? You’re defending her, even though you’re involved with her sister? You don’t even acknowledge her as your fiancée. What are you doing here, catch her cheating on you?” 

Christopher’s face darkened instantly. “No matter who she is to me, I can’t allow such an incident in the Quirk manor. Why are you trying to force her when she’s obviously unwilling?” 

“F*ck. You don’t know a thing. That’s just a lover’s spat, to spice things up!” 

Christopher was stunned to his core. 

“W–What did you say?” 

who 

The man picked himself up from the ground, lifting his lips into a malicious grin. “I wasn’t the one made you a cuckold. That slt was the one who seducell me, but she dumped me after just three months. Can you blame me for wanting some sort of explanation?” 

Christopher’s expression abruptly changed, instinctively reaching out to choke the man’s throat. “Say that again!” 

The man, too, was infuriated. “What the heck. Just because you acting like you’re jealous!” 

lon’t want her, no one else can? Stop 

Christopher’s eyes were filled with rage. He was ready to lash out, but Alfred suddenly appeared and stopped him. 

“Oh dear. Mr. Christopher, it’s not right to hit a guest. You should keep your cool and talk it out” 

Alfred hastily separated the two and quickly dragged the man away, seemingly able to sense that Christopher was truly furious. 

“Mr. Christopher, you should hurry back to attend to the guests. Everyone has arrived and Mr. Alexander is looking for you.” 

Christopher froze in place, his emotions in turmoil. By the time he regained his composure and turned around to look, Luna was already standing there, clutching onto his coat in her hands, her face pale and stunned. 

Wearing a somber expression, Christopher was about to bypass Luna and leave when she suddenly exclaimed, “It wasn’t me!” 

Christopher glanced over, only to see Luna, as if summoned her courage, staring at him with a fearless demeanor. “h’s Bianca. I’m sure she’s the one who caused all this trouble…” 

“Luna“” Christopher roared.

Luna was taken aback. When she had a proper glimpse at the look in Christopher’s eyes, she felt as if a bucket of cold water had been dumped on her. 

With a hint of mockery on his face, Christopher said. “Let’s forget about those previous instances, but this time, how can you still shift the blame to Bianca after doing something so absurd?” 

All color drained from Luna’s face, and her eyes gradually lost their luster. She wanted to explain that she wasn’t the culprit for the previous instances, but she couldn’t. 

Christopher sneered. “To think Bianca has always felt guilty toward you because of our matter, and out of respect for the engagement, she and I have never officially started dating. Now that I think of it, it’s not worth doing all that. Luna. I don’t care whether or not you harbor feelings for me, but I’ve only had Bianca in my heart since she risked her life to save me when we were younger. So… let’s call off our engagement. The only woman I want to marry is Bianca.” 

The sparkle in Luna’s eyes faded away completely, and the coat in her arms slipped from her grasp onto the ground. 

Although she had long known this day would come, it still made her heart ache profoundly 

“So, you knew all along that I liked you,” Luna suddenly uttered. 

Christopher refused to spare Luna another glance. 

Luna let out a bitter laugh. “Don’t worry, it won’t happen again. Let’s call off the engagement. 

As expected, other than Grandma, everyone in this world, be it Mom and Dad or the young boy who promised to marry and protect me forever, will only choose to believe Bianca. 

Strangely, Christopher felt his heart lurch after hearing Luna’s response. On the surface, however, he still couldn’t help but say, “It’s good that you’re willing to cooperate. I’m warning you though, if you ever harm Bianca again, I won’t hesitate-” 

A sudden voice interrupted Christopher’s words: Tak, t, tsk. This feels like someone is trying to get on his love’s bad side! 

Unaccustomed to hearing Isabella’s heartfelt thoughts, Christopher instinctively turned to look in the direction of the voice, only to see Isabella and Alexander standing in the corridor behind Luna. 

It seemed like the two had come together. 

Before Christopher could even speak, Alexander asked with a frown. “What happened? Why are you making a scene here? Didn’t we agree to settle this matter later?” 

Since Alexander and Isabella arrived late, all they heard was Christopher clamoring to break off the engagement with Luna, oblivious to what transpired earlier. 

Christopher furrowed his brows, but he ultimately didn’t reveal what happened in the bathroom earlier. He figured it wasn’t beneficial to Luna’s reputation, after all 

“It’s nothing.” Christopher said, somewhat defiantly. 

Alexander’s gaze swept over and noticed that Luna’s dress was torn. Although it wasn’t revealing, it was not quite decent.

He lowered his head and whispered to Isabella. “Take her upstairs to change her clothes.” 

Isabella had also noticed and nodded in acknowledgment.

As she walked over to take Luna away and spotted the latter’s numb expression, she couldn’t help but glared fiercely at Christopher. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

As if being provoked. Christopher wanted to ask what she was looking at when he heard this: He said Bianca’s the only one in his heart ever since she saved him. Should I find a way to tell this fool that he got his savior wrong? The one who saved him back then was Lia, not Bianca. Seeing how annoying he is. I don’t really feel like telling him. He deserves it for making a mistake. 

Christopher’s mind went blank for a moment. Then, a wave of irritation washed over him, as if his cherished memories were being mocked. He drew his breath, about to lash out at Isabella when Alexander coldly interrupted, “Shut up. Christopher.” 

Christopher paused, staring at Alexander in disbelief. 

Isabella was perplexed, but she still departed with Luna, who had completely lost interest in everything. 

After the ladies left, Christopher finally couldn’t contain his anger and pointed. in the direction where Isabella left and yelled, “Alex, did you hear… 

Alexander knitted his brows. “You said you want to marry Bianca. If it was Luna who saved you when you were young, and not Bianca, would your decision be the same?” 

Christopher widened his eyes in disbelief, thinking he must have misheard. But even if I’m hearing things. there’s no way I’d hear something so absurd, 

“Alex, Isabella has gone mad. Are you joining her in her madness?” 

Yet, all Alexander did was stare at Christopher silently, without uttering a word. 

Seeing how Alexander didn’t look like he was joking, Christopher could no longer keep himself together. 

“I was the one involved, so how could I not know who saved me? Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Cowell and Bianca, oh yes, and even Luna knows that it was Bianci who saved me! Luna has never refuted that! How could it possibly be wrong?” Christopher found the situation utterly ridiculous. 

It was precisely because they knew how Christopher would respond that the Quirks did not immediately inform him about the fact that he had acknowledged the wrong person as his savior. 

The Quirks had complete faith in Isabella’s account. They were convinced it was the truth. 

However, the matter was so far in the past that verification was impossible unless the individual involved chose to overturn everything. 

So, the plan was to get through the party first, then bring up the matter when Christopher talked about his marriage matters so that he could make his own decision. 

In Alexander’s view, he thought Christopher shouldn’t let this illusion dictate his choice of a significant other regardless of how much that illusion weighed in his heart. 

He just didn’t expect that things would erupt ahead of time.

Christopher was on the verge of an emotional outburst and blurted out without thinking. “Could it be that Luna can’t accept it and is trying to pretend she was the one who saved me? Does she think that will make me choose her? Hah, no way I’ll do that!” 

“Stop reading too much into things,” Alexander said flatly. “It’s just a secret Isabella knows about. Whether or not it’s a mistake, we can clear that up in person later. But you have to consider carefully, who you’d choose if there indeed was a mistake.” 

“What I love about Bianca is her innocence and kindness. Even if she hadn’t saved my life, I… I’d still choose Bianca!” 

A frown marred Alexander’s countenance. I’ve no idea what kind of a person Luna is, but I’m sure Bianca is no saint. It’s so annoying how blinded Christopher is! 

Suddenly, Alexander realized there was some truth when Isabella mentioned how Christoper deserved it for making a mistake.
