HONEY, Love Me One More Time

Chapter 50: Do You Dare To Go With Me

“So what? Estelle is my friend. I hope she can divorce you as soon as possible! Mr. Hans, why don’t you ask your fiancee for her opinion? I believe she prefers you were going through the divorce procedures with Estelle rather than being here and buying her a wedding ring.” Cristofer gritted his teeth, unable to utter a word. Gretchen had been urging him to divorce Estelle in the past years. And this year, even York and Melody asked him when he would marry Gretchen from time to time. And sometimes, he didn’t know how to answer them. Somehow, his feelings for Gretchen seemed to have changed since he knew that Yvonne was his child with Estelle. In the past, he always thought that Gretchen was a kind-hearted woman. She didn’t care about her personal gain and loss. Nor did she care about whether he was rich or not. When he had a hard time, she stayed with him, cared for him wholeheartedly, and never complained. But what had happened recently made him feel that Gretchen was different from before. Thinking about Estelle’s words just now, he was absolutely confused. How did Gretchen know that Estelle’s account had been frozen? And since she knows that Estelle has no money, ‘why did she publicly expose it and embarrass Estelle?’ ‘Will a kind-hearted woman do such a thing?’ ‘York froze Estelle’s bank account. How did she get through these past days?’ “Cristofer...” Seeing that he was silent, Gretchen called his name and pretended to be aggrieved. “Aren’t you willing to divorce Miss Hudson?” “I...” “Cristofer, you promised me that you would marry me!” Gretchen cried and said. “How can you break your promise? Now everyone in Hadale knows that we are going to get married. If you go back on your words, I’ll be the laughingstock of the whole city!” Cristofer, whose mind was in a mess, became more upset when being pressed. He said impatiently,

“Gretchen, calm down. Let’s talk about it later.” “No! Tell me if you will marry me or not!” Gretchen forced him. Cristofer pulled her hand and said, “Come on. Don’t be difficult.” “I’m not being difficult, Cristofer. I’ve been with you for so many years! Estelle can give birth to a daughter for you. I can also do it!” “Wait, wait,” Rebecca, who had been watching them all the time, suddenly interrupted her. “Excuse me, Miss... Grantham... or Abrams... or something, I suddenly remember that I met you in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of a hospital before.” Hearing that, Gretchen turned pale. “What nonsense are you talking about?” “No wonder I thought you looked familiar yesterday. When you talked about giving birth to a baby just now, I suddenly remembered that about years ago, I accompanied my mother to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department for an examination. At that time, I saw a pregnant woman who went there alone to have an abortion. I remember the doctor mentioning that the woman couldn’t have a baby anymore because she always had abortions. Is that girl you?” Gretchen said, “Don’t talk nonsense. I didn’t...” “Seven years ago, you were still underage,” Rebecca continued, “The doctor said that you were indiscreet and always hooked up with various men. He also said that having an abortion is bad for health.” Gretchen interrupted her in a fluster, “Don’t talk nonsense, or I can sue you for slander!” “I have a good memory. I’m pretty sure that woman is you!” Rebecca said firmly. “How about we go to the hospital and check your previous medical records now? Do you dare to go with me?” Gretchen grabbed Cristofer’s arm, cried, and said, “Cristofer, can you bear to see her slander me like this?” Seeing her reaction, Rebecca knew that her assumption was right. She continued, “Miss Abrams if you are innocent, why don’t you dare to go to the hospital with me?” “Cut it out!” Cristofer interrupted her. Rebecca was unsatisfied with his attitude and said, “Cristofer, you were so smart before. How could you fall in love with such a hypocritical woman? If you don’t believe me, you can go to the hospital

to check it out.” Cristofer fell into silence with a darkened face, his lips compressed into a thin line. Then, after a long while, he said, “I believe in Gretchen.” “Huh?” Rebecca sneered, “You believe her? What a fool you are.” “Miss Miller, enough is enough. For the sake that we are schoolmates and your father is my business partner, I’m going to let that slide today. But my concession doesn’t mean that you can be more and more unreasonable!” Cristofer said coldly. “Am I unreasonable? I...” When she was about to say something else, Estelle interrupted her and pulled her arm. “Rebecca, stop it. Other people are watching us.” It was not until then that Rebecca found that the saleswomen in the store were all standing aside uneasily, and no one dared to make a sound. And many passersby outside who noticed the hateful confrontation had walked into the store. At this time, the jewellery store was full of people. Rebecca snorted and said, “All right. For the sake of Estelle, I won’t expose you in public today. Miss Abrams, please behave yourself. And Cristofer, if she can’t have a baby in the future, don’t say that I didn’t warn you.” After saying that, she took Estelle’s hand, forged through the crowd, and left the jewellery store with Estelle. They didn’t stop until they were sure that no one was following them. She breathed a sigh of relief and then asked in confusion, “I really don’t understand how Cristofer becomes like that.” Estelle smiled bitterly and said, “I don’t understand either.” “I’m pissed off just now. Forget it. Let’s not talk about him. I’m going to meet some of my friends today. They are all very outgoing and energetic. You can go with me, and I’ll introduce them to you!” Estelle refused and said, “No, thanks, Rebecca. I’m not going.” However, Rebecca didn’t listen to her. Instead, she pulled Estelle’s arm and let her enter the car. Then she started the car and drove straight to her destination. “Estelle, you’ve been stuck in your marriage with Cristofer these years and probably don’t have© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

much time to socialize. Now that you’ve got rid of him, you should start a new life and socialize more. Do whatever you want, huh?” Holding the seat belt, Estelle looked out of the window at the trees on both sides of the road. The wind dishevelled her hair, and she gently tucked the messy hair behind her ears. ‘Rebecca is right. In the past six years, I’ve been stuck in my marriage. I stay in that villa alone almost every day.’
