Chapter 165 Not Going To Let It Off
Christopher shouted so loudly that his voice cracked.
Beads of sweat rolled down his temples and blended into the pillow.
The muscles on his body tensed up, and he was trembling.
“Ana, quick, run!”
Yuliana’s hand was painful from Christopher’s grip. In that way, however, she could feel more clearly how fearful he
was in the dream.
She nudged Christopher on the shoulder and called him out loudly, but she couldn’t wake him from the nightmare,
and his body shook even more violently.
Seeing him like that made Yuliana feel her heart wrenched.
She was at a loss for what to do. In the end, she couldn’t help but hug him tightly.
“Christopher, I’m here. Don’t be afraid. It’s just a dream…”
Somehow, Christopher seemed to dream about something again and began to struggle. Yuliana couldn’t hold him
at all. She only heard him shout while swinging his arms in panic. “Get out of the way Quick…”
Tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes at the same time. The veins on his neck popped out, looking
ferocious and terrifying.
Yuliana’s eyes went misty when she saw that. She wrapped her arms around his neck tightly and kept calling his
name.
Finally, Christopher quieted down.
He no longer screamed in terror and only murmured.
Yuliana looked at his beautiful thin lips. It seemed that he was repeating something.
She then moved her ear closer to his mouth and listened to him carefully. After some time, she finally heard him
clearly.
Her body stiffened at his words, and she gradually became expressionless. After a moment, she let go of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChristopher, sat on her knees at the side, and looked at him quietly for a long time.
Such a situation only happened because Christopher had a high fever that night. Yuliana went to Hailey and handed
her the fever-reducing medicine, asking for her help feeding Christopher with the medication. Then, she requested
Hailey to clean up the vacant room, as she would be sleeping there tonight.
When Yuliana woke up the following day, Christopher’s fever had already subsided, but he was still asleep. She went
into the room and took a look at him. After breakfast, she went to school.
It was Tuesday, and Yuliana had exchanged a class with Albert. As such, she would have five classes instead of four
that day.
In the morning. Christopher texted her. [How about I pick you up at noon?]
Since Hailey came, Yuliana had been going home for lunch and would take a nap at home before returning to
school. The timing was just perfect.
However, Yuliana didn’t plan to go home that day and replied: [No need. I’m going to stay at school to mark the
assignments at noon. I’m not going home.]
Later, Christopher called. Yuliana was giving a class and did not answer the call.
It was already noon when she saw it. She did not return Christopher’s call, however.
There was a snack bar that sold handmade beef wraps opposite the school. Yuliana had invited Fiona to have beef
wraps for lunch.
As soon as they went downstairs, someone rushed up to them. Before Yuliana could react, she felt a pail of cold
water pouring on her head.
Yuliana’s hair, face, and clothes were all wet.
She was a little confused. Only when she opened her eyes did she find Margaret standing in front of her with
hatred, holding an empty pail. Judging from the design and condition of the pail, Yuliana could tell it was
from the school.
She did not know how Margaret got the pail.
The campus was crowded with teachers and students at that hour, and many people had witnessed the
scene.
Fiona was the first one to react. She was also splashed with water but much less than Yuliana.
“What are you doing?” Fiona said to Margaret fiercely before going to check on Yuliana. Seeing that Yuliana’s hair
and face were wet, she hurriedly took a tissue from her bag. “Ms. Livingstone, are you okay?” Yuliana took the
tissue and expressed gratitude before wiping the water on her face.
“Huh! Yuliana, does one like you deserve to be a teacher?” Margaret sneered.
Fiona looked around and saw quite a number of teachers and students looking in their direction.
Fiona was infuriated at the sight of the arrogant Margaret and asked solemnly, “Who are you? What are you doing
at our school?”
Margaret glanced at Fiona and said, “I’d suggest you mind your own business. This is between Yuliana and me.” She
then shifted her gaze to Yuliana and continued, “Yuliana, I’m going to reveal your true colors to your colleagues and
students today!”
“Everyone, come over!” Margaret threw the pail away and shouted, “Ms. Livingstone used to be my
sister-in-law. However, she was unfaithful and cheated on my brother, Harry. So, my brother divorced Yuliana I felt
sorry for her and had been taking good care of her. I didn’t expect her to seduce my fiancé one day! Tell me Does
this immoral woman deserve to be a teacher? If she continues to stay in the school, she will mislead the children!”
Upon hearing Margaret’s words, the crowd began to whisper among themselves.
Yuliana halted her actions and stared at Margaret coldly.
Fiona, however, lost her temper and said, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Margaret looked around and added, “I’m not talking nonsense. My boyfriend was on a business trip to Romdale last
weekend. After Yuliana knew about it, she followed him, and I caught them in bed!”
She spoke with certainty and seemed to be telling the truth.
Fiona couldn’t stand it anymore. “Where are the security guards? Why haven’t they come over and thrown this
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcrazy woman out?”
In fact, the security guards already rushed over once they heard the noise. But since Margaret didn’t do anything
wrong, they stood in the crowd and didn’t come forward immediately.
After hearing Fiona’s words, they approached and said, “Miss, this is school. You’d better not make trouble here
anymore.”
“Don’t you dare touch me! Or I’ll make your life difficult in Juxshire!” Margaret shouted.
Margaret’s domineering temperament was somehow intimidating, and the two security guards dared not to touch
her. The people around the scene took pictures with their mobile phones. If they posted it online, the consequences
would be too ghastly to contemplate.
“Get your principal here!” Margaret pointed at one of the security guards and said, “I’m telling you, I won’t let this
off if the school doesn’t punish Yuliana today!”
Suddenly, a series of sneers rang out from the crowd. “Tell me. How are you going to do that?”
Yuliana, momentarily stunned, subconsciously lifted her gaze and looked in the direction of the voice. It was then
that she saw Christopher standing not far away from them, staring at Margaret coldly.
Probably because he had yet to recover from the cold fully, his face was still pale.
He was injured and had caught a cold in the past few days. As a result, he had lost a lot of weight, and his trousers
seemed loose.
Margaret turned around and looked at Christopher in the crowd. Her lips couldn’t help but tremble. “C-Christopher.”
Christopher withdrew his gaze from her and strode toward Yuliana. When he saw Yuliana soaking wet, the hostility
in his eyes intensified. He took off his coat and wrapped it around Yuliana before he fished out his phone and called
the police without hesitation.
“Hello, sir. This is Juxshire Primary School. There was an undesirable person causing trouble here, which seriously
affected the teachers and children in the school. Please come over immediately.”
Widening her eyes in disbelief, Margaret rushed up to Christopher immediately and tried to snatch his phone.
However, Christopher raised his hand, and Margaret failed. Christopher then glared at the two security guards
coldly. “Did the school hire you for nothing?”
