HONEY, Love Me One More Time

Chapter 176: You Are So Ruthless To Me

Soon, Gary was taken out of the emergency room, lying on the bed weakly and muzzled with an oxygen mask. When he saw Estelle, Gary tried hard to reach out to hold her hand. Seeing him like this, Estelle felt distressed. She walked forward and gently held his withered hand, saying, “Grandpa, I’m here.” Hearing this, Gary felt much relieved and slowly closed his eyes to rest. After he was sent to the ward, Estelle stayed there to take care of him. “Where is Cristofer?” Gary asked. Estelle looked around and then saw Cristofer talking on the phone outside the ward. “He’s talking to someone on the phone. Maybe he’s busy with the affairs of the company.” Gary said disapprovingly with a weak voice, “Humph. He must be talking to that shameless woman over the phone.” Estelle didn’t say anything. Whether it was Gretchen who called Cristofer or not had nothing to do with her. “Grandpa, have a good rest. I’ll be here with you.” “I will,” Gary said and then slowly closed his eyes. Soon, he fell asleep, and his breath gradually became even. At the thought that Yohan and Yvonne were still at the Williams’ Residence, Estelle couldn’t help feeling worried. She didn’t know if Luke could deal with Gretchen alone. It’s evident that it was not a casual visit that Gretchen went to the Williams’ Residence. She came with a purpose, looking quite composed as if she was sure that Cristofer would marry her. Feeling restless, Estelle took out her phone. When she was about to call Luke, her phone beeped. ‘Don’t worry. Yohan and Yvonne are safe. I’ve sent someone to protect them.’ The message from Mr. Mysterious set Estelle’s mind at rest, and she breathed a sigh of relief. ‘Estelle, take good care of yourself. I’ll deal with Gretchen. Don’t be angry because of her. It’s not worth it.’ Estelle then replied to him.

‘Sir, life is so unfair. Why do good people suffer so much while bad people live a good life?’ ‘Estelle, what goes around comes around. Evildoers are bound to be punished in the end.’ ‘Then how soon will they get their comeuppances? I really feel that life is too unfair.’ ‘They’ll be punished soon. Estelle, calm down and don’t worry. I will get everything back on the right track. Trust me.’ ‘Okay. I believe you.’ **** “Gretchen, I have agreed to all your requirements. What else do you want?” Cristofer said on the phone, gritting his teeth. “Cristofer, you must want to kill me now, right?” Gretchen sneered and said, “Unfortunately, even if you already know that it was me who killed your parents, you can’t do anything to me because you don’t have any evidence. Six years have passed, and the scrapped cars can’t be found. You will never be able to bring me to justice unless I turn myself into the police.” “What the hell do you want to do?” Cristofer growled in anger. “I want to be Mrs. Williams. Estelle has ruined my reputation. And no one will marry me except you. Cristofer, haven’t we reached an agreement before? When the baby is born, I will surrender myself to the authorities. I committed murder, and I will definitely be sentenced to death. Before I die, I can donate my lungs to Estelle so that she can survive.” Hearing her crazy words, Cristofer felt exhausted both physically and mentally. Since he debunked Gretchen’s lie and learned the truth about the car accident, he felt that Gretchen had changed into another person. It was not until then that he realized that she was just pretending to be kind in front of him before, and she was actually a cunning and vicious woman. Gretchen then continued, “Cristofer, you have found so many lung donors for Estelle, but none of them can save her. Hahaha. Only my lung matches hers. If I don’t donate my lung, she will die soon.” “I’m now notorious, and those shameless old men want to kill me. I can’t live long anyway. My only wish now is to marry you and give birth to your child before I die. I’ll prove to everyone that I’m not

unwanted. After the child is born, I’ll surrender and pay for my crimes. And I’ll keep my word and save Estelle. But Cristofer, if you can’t satisfy me and make me unhappy, maybe I will change my mind,” Gretchen threatened him. “What else do you want? Tell me all at once.” “I want you to hold a grand wedding for me and invite all the people in the upper class of Hadale to attend it. I want those disgusting old men to see that I can also marry into a rich family, and my husband is younger and more handsome than them.” “Okay.” “I want you to transfer half of your properties to my mother. Since I will die, I have to guarantee that my mother can live a good life for the rest of her life.” “Okay.” “And I want you to kiss me in front of everyone at the wedding and tell them I’m the only woman you have loved in your life.” “...” “If you don’t agree, then forget it. It’s better for me to live than to die. I don’t care whether Estelle can survive anyway. But it will be a pity that her two children will lose their mother at such a young age.” “I promise you!” Cristofer interrupted her. Hearing this, Gretchen sneered and said, “Cristofer, it seems that you really love Estelle very much. For her, you are even willing to give up half of your properties and marry an infamous woman like me regardless of your reputation. What’s so good about her?” “It’s none of your business.” “Tut-tut, you are so ruthless to me.” “Have you finished your words?” “Yes. By the way, I’ll let you know if I want anything else.” With a darkened face, Cristofer hung up the phone, squatted slowly, and sat on the ground dejectedly with his eyes closed. However, the next moment, his phone rang again.

“What else do you want?” Cristofer said impatiently after answering the phone. “What?” Justin was a little stunned on the other end of the line. “Cristofer, it’s me. I’ve arrived at the Williams’ Residence. Yohan and Yvonne are fine. Vincent has brought safeguards here to protect them.” “Well, thank you, bro.” “Alas...” Justin said helplessly. “Fortunately, you finally came back. I was frightened when I knew about your condition at the beginning.” “I’m sorry.” “It’s okay. Cristofer, I have to confirm your identity again. Are you... Are you really Cristofer now?” Justin said with his voice full of doubts. Hearing this, Cristofer couldn’t help chuckling and said, “Whether I awake or not, I’m Cristofer.” Justin heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Back then, the first time you came to my place with the identity of Mr. Mysterious, I thought that you suffered from a dissociative disorder because of the grief caused by the car accident.”
