Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore) novel Chapter 1069

Whether Christopher was willing to help her or not, it no longer mattered. He didn't owe Sydney anything and wasn't obliged to help her. It was good enough that he was willing to hear her out.

Sydney looked up and said, "I'm not expecting you to help me by telling you all these. You can just hear me out. I'll figure a way out myself."

"How are you going to do that?" Christopher asked.

Sydney pondered for a long time, and her eyes grew sharp. "If he were to force me to a corner, I'd die along with him. I'll kill him and go to jail, at most. Or I could kill myself after killing him. Whatever it is…"

Before she could complete her sentence, Christopher covered her mouth with his hand. His brows furrowed, he said solemnly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Sydney broke down and hugged him.

"I really have considered dying with him. I thought of killing him in his sleep, but I hated the thought of having to sacrifice myself to get rid of him. Why? I refuse to accept that!"

"Syd," Christopher called out to her.

Sydney was very agitated. "He's your brother-in-law. Will you blame me if I were to kill him? Will your sister blame me?"

Christopher patted her back gently. "Don't be silly. I won't let you do something like that."

He had never seen Sydney so weak and vulnerable. Clearly, Geoffrey spelled huge trouble for her.

Christopher let Sydney go and gently wiped the tears from her face. "I won't let anything happen to you. Don't worry. Leave Geoffrey Carter to me."

Sydney looked up at him with glistening eyes. "You're willing to help me?"

Christopher nodded. "Yes. My sister has already suffered with him. I don't want that to happen to you, too."

Sydney wiped the tears from her face and drew near to kiss him, but Christopher put his fingers on her lips.
