Chapter 342 Finally Found You Fanny bit her lip and lowered her head in panic as she replied to Christopher. âItâs none of your business.â
She had never expected to meet Christopher now. She was not ready for a confrontation with him.
âNone of my business?!â With both of his eyes wide open and fixed on Fanny, Christopher took hold of her arm.
He terrified Fanny, who attempted to wriggle out of his hold but was unsuccessful.
Christopher clung to her more tightly the more she attempted to let go of him. All she could do was whimper weakly. âIt hurts.â
Upon hearing Fannyâs soft voice, he became aware that he had let his rage overcome him.
He anxiously examined Fannyâs arm, gently blowing on the spot where she had been pinched, before softening his tone and asking, âFanny, are youâstill angry? We already made up, didnât we?â
He knew it was wrong of him to leave Northland without saying anything to Riverdon, but wasnât Fanny also here in Northland?
Furthermore, Fanny went with him to rent a home yesterday. Why was she having a fling with another person today?
t He decided that the person in the private room was to blame.
âDid he force you?â Christopher asked for confirmation as he leaned in and cupped Fannyâs face.
Pushing his hand aside, Fanny retreated a few steps. With her eyes red, she said, âNo. Arenât you in Northland for a blind date?
Well, heâs my blind date.â
Yaxley had made a promise to her before, and he mentioned engagement right away. Already her heart was drawing comparisons between Christopher and Yaxley.
Even if she liked Christopher, she couldnât show weakness in this situation.
Not only that, but Christopher also traveled to Northland, especially to go on a blind date with another woman!
1/4 Boyâs question stunned him.
âYou knew Christopher was taken aback by bannyâs expression of disappointment. He clarified in a hurry, saying, âFanny, I donât want to go for blind dates either. My father is the who Peeling untair. Fanny interrupted him straight away, asking, âDo you think I want it as well? My dad also wants me to go on a blind date.â
She had tears in her eyes, but only she knew she was relieved on the inside.
Christopher did not choose to go on a blind date; it was Michaelâs idea.
As long as Christopher had her in his heart, it didnât matter if he went on a blind date with another woman.
Chris, letâs discuss this another day. Will you please go now? Youâre the person I like, but like you. I have no control over some things.
Christopher felt a pang of sadness at her pitiful and helpless appearance. He wished he could. slap himself twice, thinking of all the times heâd scared and nearly hurt Fanny in the past.
âBut Iâm worried about you. Who knows what harm that person might do to youâhe knows Angela!â Christopher exclaimed.
âHe. Just as Fanny shook her head and opened her mouth to speak, Christopherâs phone ranc You should answer the phone, Chris.â
At first, Christopher didnât want to answer, but after he realized it was Michael on the caller ID. he did.
The phone connected, and Michaelâs roar came through.
âWhere are you? The girl has been waiting for you for so long! Why havenât you arrived yet?â
Christopher looked puzzled and asked, âDad, didnât you ask me to pay her a visit at her house?â
âHave you not seen the message I sent to you earlier? The girl is waiting. Hurry up and go to her!â
Michael said his final two words loudly and hung up the phone.
2/4 Chapter 342 Fullany Exum Fanny stood next to Christopher, listening to Michaelâs words, and softly said, âChris, go now. Donât upset your dad, and donât keep the girl waiting too long.
Without giving Christopher a chance to respond, she turned and went back to the private room where Yaxley was waiting.
Christopher didnât have the time to console Fanny, and with Michaelâs warning in mind, he quickly checked the message. After reading it, he had no room for thought about Fanny anymore.
He decided he would comfort Fanny later and teach that man a lesson.
After that, he proceeded directly to the blind date location, stopping along the way to pick up a present.
Having clashed with Yaxley before, luckily without causing any damage to his face, Christopher believed it wouldnât affect the blind date much.
Fanny, in the meantime, made her way back to the private room, inhaled deeply, thought carefully about what to do next, and then slowly opened the door.
Yaxley was still seated, the bruise from Christopherâs blow still evident on his face.
âYaxley, should we do something about your face?â Fanny whispered her question.
He shook his head and gestured for her to come closer.
And Fanny approached him slowly.
Yaxley remained expressionless and quietly stated, âThe foodâs here, so letâs cat. After that, Iâll take you home.â
He asked no questions, which made Fanny feel both relieved and uneasy.
âOkay.â Fanny sat down, pondering why Yaxley didnât inquire further, and ate everything dejectedly on her plate.
âYou donât like it?â Yaxley questioned.
He was concerned about Fannyâs lack of enthusiasm for the food.
Fanny quickly denied it and mentioned Christopher. âItâs not that. I want to apologize on behalf of my friend.â
She didnât want Yaxley to harbor resentment now that he was still valuable to her, or at least 3/4 quite valuable.
âHmm? Itâs fine. I fought back, so no harm was done.â Yaxley dismissed the incident. âIt wasnât his first time acting like that. Just ignore it.â
Hearing that, Fanny felt reassured. Yaxley didnât recall her presence in the café with Christopher.
âLetâs not dwell on that anymore. We should cat.â
The room fell silent as they enjoyed their meal.
One appeared calm, whereas the other was truly at peace.
Meanwhile, in Jonathanâs office, Angela stretched and took a glance at Jonathan.
Jonathan was engrossed in the documents, looking serious and attractive.
Noticing Angelaâs gaze, he looked up and asked, âWhatâs on your mind?â
She pointed to the clock. âAre you almost finished? Itâs time for dinner.â
Jonathan set aside the files, grabbed his jacket, and headed toward Angela.
âYeah. Letâs go grab a bite.â
Together, they left the office after Angela finished packing.
As they left the building, they were greeted by an unexpected visitor.
âAngela!â Joseph called out.
She was surprised to see Joseph, who appeared dusty and fatigued.
Why is he here in Northland when heâs supposed to be in Riverdon?
âI finally found you, Angela.â Joseph drew a deep breath as he said that to Angela.
