Chapter 162 Come Down
The phone rang and stopped.
Margaret picked up her phone and took a quick look it was Scarlett calling.
Although she and Scarlett had known each other since they were young, they were not very close. The last time
Margaret and Scarlett went shopping together was when the latter was at the Ziegler residence. The two of them
had said it out of courtesy, but Scarlett took it seriously and asked Margaret to go shopping.
However, after that, Margaret realized that Scarlett did not want to go shopping with her. Instead, she wanted to
know more about Harry’s ex-wife, Yuliana.
Margaret did not like Yuliana either. Hence, she exaggerated while telling Scarlett about Yuliana.
“Marge, are you still in Romdale?” Scarlett asked.
“Yes”
Margaret controlled her emotions, but her tone was still very cold and stiff.
In an instant, Scarlett could hear that Margaret was in a bad mood. “Marge, what’s wrong with you? Did something
happen to you?”
“I’m fine!” Margaret snapped. She was extremely annoyed.
Of course, she did not want to tell Scarlett about it
Recently, the photos she had posted on Instagram were secretly showing off her romance. Scarlett must have seen
them as well. That was why she knew Margaret was in Romdale.
“If I tell Scarlett about it, I wonder how she will make fun of me in private,” Margaret said inwardly.
Upon seeing that Margaret refused to say anything, Scarlett did not continue asking questions. Scarlett saw the
man in Margaret’s Instagram video and thought he looked handsome. However, with just a glance, Scarlett knew
he was a playboy
Only Margaret would fall for a man like that.
“Marge, when will you come back to Juxshire?” Scarlett asked.

Scarlett was silent for a few seconds before changing her tone. She sounded depressed and was not in a good
mood
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing that, Margaret’s voice softened a little. “What can I do for you?”
Scarlett hummed softly in response and answered, “You know, I spent most of my time abroad and only have a few
friends back home. I don’t know who to talk to except you.”
After hearing what Scarlett said, Margaret was pleased.
Even though she was the Ziegler family’s daughter, her mother was, after all, not the legal wife. It was rumored
that Margaret’s mother was a homewrecker and had taken over her father’s legal wife’s position. Thus, the girls in
her circle were only close to Margaret on the surface and secretly looked down on her.
They often gossiped and made fun of Margaret behind her back.
Margaret did not expect Scarlett to treat her as a real friend. The former was somewhat touched and asked, “What
is it that you want to tell me?”
Scarlett started stammering and did not make it clear. Nevertheless, Margaret could also feel that it had something
to do with Harry.
She did not understand what was so good about Harry. Was an illegitimate child like him worth Scarlett’s attention?
Margaret responded, “I’ll contact you in a couple of days when I return to Juxshire.”
“Okay, I’ll buy you a meal when you’re back,” Scarlett answered with a smile.
Margaret absentmindedly hummed in response and hung up.
She was outraged when she saw Yuliana with Christopher that day. Thus, she could not hold back and hit Yuliana.
Margaret was certain that a man like Christopher never liked shrewish behavior, which was why he had shouted at
her.
“Yuliana was married before. The Solace family would never let a woman like her marry Christopher. I bet it’s most
likely a momentary ty, and he’s just playing with her. Ultimately, he’ll surely marry a distinguished lady of
equal social status,” Margaret thought
Margaret felt much better at that thought.
She would never give up just like that.
In the evening, Margaret went to a bar.
Compared with the fast pace of Juxshire, Romdale was much slower and could even be described as laid-back
Romdale’s food and entertainment establishments were not inferior to Juxshire’s-especially during the night. There
was so much to do.
Since Margaret was already in a bad mood that day, she entered the nightclub and started to dance after drinking
two glasses of alcohol. The way she dressed was suitable for a place like a club. As soon as she stepped onto the
dance floor, many men gathered around her.
Of course, she was not interested in those not of equal status. She was lazy to even act like she was interested.
After dancing until her body was warm, Margaret walked out of the dance floor. She went to the bar and ordered
another glass of alcoholic drink. Margaret sat there and drank slowly. However, deep down in her heart, she was
thinking about how she should take Christopher away from Yuliana.
“Ms. Zielger.”
A man’s voice rang out.
Margaret tilted her head and realized that it was a chubby man. He was so plump that she felt like the oil in his body
was about to flow out from his chubby face.
She could not help but frown in disgust and retract her gaze. Margaret took a sip of wine and suppressed her
emotions before asking. “Who are you?”
Lincoln put his hand on the backrest of Margaret’s barstool and smiled, “My last name is Foster. I met you once
when I was with Mr. Solace last time.”
When Margaret heard Lincoln mention “Mr. Solace,” she looked at him again.
All of a sudden, she felt that he was not that disgusting anymore.
“You mean Christopher?” Margaret asked.
Lincoln nodded with a smile.
Margaret sized him up for a while and said, “Why don’t I remember you?”
She could only remember a man whose last name was Sinew, who was good-looking
Lincoln shrugged and laughed self-depreciatingly, “Maybe I just have a common-looking face!”
Upon hearing that, Margaret snorted and drank by herself again..
Lincoln’s eyes moved up and down from Margaret’s face. Then, his gaze fell on her exposed chest.
Margaret’s figure was slightly chubby. At that moment, she was wearing a bodycon knitted spaghetti strap dress
with a leather jacket. The leather jacket hung loosely around Margaret’s upper arm, revealing her round and small

Suddenly, Lincoln felt a little thirsty
He looked up and signaled the bartender with his eyes. The bartender immediately understood and
responded with a smile. Not long after, he made a cocktail and handed it to Margaret.
“Miss, this cocktail is for you,” the handsome bartender said with a smile.
Propping her chin on her hand, Margaret stared at him for a while. She then raised the glass and drank it all.
“Thanks,” Margaret said while smiling sweetly
Ten minutes later, Lincoln dragged and carried Margaret out of the club.
Yuliana went back to the hotel to prepare for her lessons at night.
Christopher was in the hospital himself.
When Yuliana left, she had told Christopher that she would go to the hospital the following morning instead of that
night.
Initially, she was not expecting Christopher to agree.
However, he was quick to agree.
After returning to the hotel, Yuliana turned on the computer and started preparing for her lessons.
Before she knew it, it was 10 p.m., yet there was still a little left to be done.
Yuliana turned off the computer and planned to get up tomorrow morning to continue. She took her pajamas
and was about to shower when her phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
She glanced at the screen and saw that it was Christopher calling.
Yuliana picked up her phone and answered the call. Her voice was soft. “What’s wrong?”
“Ana, come down,” Christopher said.
Upon listening to Christopher’s low voice, Yuliana was stunned and asked, “Come down where?”
Christopher answered, “I’m at the hotel lobby.”
Yuliana was dumbfounded and instantly got angry. “Shouldn’t you be in the hospital? What did you come out for?”
On the other end of the line, Christopher joked in a flirting manner and hurriedly said, “For you!” “Christopher!”
Yuliana got angrier at Christopher because he was being cheeky.
“There, there, Ana, please don’t get angry. Quick, come down. It’s so cold in the hotel lobby. It’s raining outside.”
His soft voice came from the other end of the phone.
Suddenly, Yuliana could not bear to get angry at him. She walked to the window and looked out. It was indeed
drizzling.
