An Impossible Marriage novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142

As soon as Margaret said those words, she hung up on Hannah and blocked the number in one go.

Once she did everything, she let out a long sigh.

As expected, Christopher did not return to the Lewis residence at night. On the next day, Margaret went to work as usual with gauze on her forehead. Although her body was still weak, she did not want to stay home. Only at the office could she feel that she was still alive.

Casper knew she had gotten in a car accident, so he felt a little worried upon seeing her at the office. “Do… Do you want to rest a few more days before coming back to work? You can take a month off. I will give you paid leaves.”

Margaret flashed him a faint smile. “Mr. Flemmington, I’m fine. You should continue with your work.”

Casper frowned. For some reason, he felt that she was acting a little different than usual, but he could not tell which part of her had changed.

While he was hesitating whether or not he should continue convincing her, a coquettish voice sounded. “Casper…

Casper shuddered and even had goosebumps all over his body. He could tell it was Megan just by listening to the tone.

With her head lowered, Margaret continued with her work in silence. However, she was trying to suppress the anger in her heart.

“Why are you here? I’m working, so don’t disturb me and mind your own business.” Casper had never liked to deal with Megan and only interacted with her out of respect for Christopher.

“I’m on my way to send Christopher my homemade cookies, so I decided to come and give you and Margaret some along the way. Why do you sound so angry?” Megan put two boxes of cookies on Margaret’s desk.

While speaking, she blinked her innocent, doe eyes as though she had said all of those unintentionally.

Margaret was unusually calm. “No. It’s not his child. Are you happy now? Can you take your stuff and get lost now?”

Those present in the office gasped. No one expected her to admit to cheating on Christopher in front of everyone.

Casper was also taken aback by her words. “Margaret, you can’t say whatever you want in a fit of temper! Let’s calm down and talk about that after work. Now, you should continue with your work first. Megan, didn’t you say that you were going to see Christopher? I’ll see you off!”

Megan nodded in agreement. Suddenly, she leaned toward Margaret’s ear and whispered, “I’m the one who hit you with the car. Do you have a problem with that? Mom knows it was my doing, yet she still helped me to settle all of this. You’re just a b*stard child that nobody wants. Christopher should keep a pet dog instead of keeping you as his wife, The b*stard inside your womb deserved to die!”
