Chapter 23 Do Not Touch Me

Christopher ignored Yuliana’s words and saw the clothes next to him from the corner of his eyes

He picked up two items and looked at Yuliana with a smile, “You’re about to take a shower? I didn’t expect Ms. Livingstone to be so brazen at lying.”

The items hanging on his index finger were the clean tank top and underwear Yuliana prepared for the shower.

When she heard the knock on the door just now, she simply put them on the couch..

Yuliana’s face darkened. She rushed forward to take them from him, but he quickly hid it behind himself. Following after, he leaned back, and Yuliana almost fell on him. Fortunately, she held the backrest of the couch in time.

However, in the next second, Christopher tripped her with his long legs. She lost her center of gravity and fell on top of Christopher.

“Mmph!” The bridge of her nose hit Christopher’s chin. Yuliana held her nose and suppressed her gasp. Out of reflex, tears instantly blurred her sight.

Hearing Yuliana’s cry of pain, Christopher quickly held Yuliana’s waist and helped her up. He asked anxiously. “What’s wrong?”

Yuliana’s mind went blank from the pain. She could not hear what he said at all and only covered her nose with her head lowered. Her palm-sized face almost scrunched up completely.

Only after the pain subsided did Yuliana’s body relax.

Christopher pulled her hand away and wanted to see her nose, “Let me see.” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Don’t touch me!” Yuliana pushed his hand away and said coldly.

Christopher’s hand froze midair, and he looked at her with a darkened face without any hint of his emotions. After a while, he laughed and sat next to her with his legs crossed. Then, he took the clothes hidden behind him and played with them casually.

Yuliana tilted her head and glanced at him. She coincidentally made eye contact with Christopher’s dark eyes.

She was expressionless and simply withdrew her gaze after that glance.

Then, she stared at the mug on the coffee table. It was unclear what she was thinking.

The small living room was so quiet that they could even hear the sound of each other’s breath.

After a long time, Yuliana finally moved slightly. She asked in a low voice, “Christopher, what do you really want to do?”

Christopher’s fingers paused abruptly, and the thin cloth slipped from his fingers. He spread out his palm and steadily caught it.

“Nothing.” He paused and said, “I came to get my clothes.”

Yuliana was stunned and then frowned, “Clothes?”

“Yes.” Christopher leaned his body to the armrest of the couch and said lazily, “Didn’t I leave my clothes here last time? I came to get it today.”

Yuliana thought,

Besides, how much could those clothes be worth to Mr. Solace?>

Yuliana said, “I didn’t know you needed those clothes, so I’ve already thrown them away.”

“You threw them away?” Christopher’s reaction was intense. “Do you know how much they cost?”

Yuliana looked at him and said, “Tell me the price. I’ll pay them back to you.”

Christopher’s expression turned stiff, and he was speechless.

Seeing that he did not speak, Yuliana picked up her phone from the coffee table and said, “Are 7,500 dollars. enough?”

“Yuliana, are you kidding me?” Christopher sneered.

Yuliana said, “15 thousand dollars then?”

Christopher had a sullen face and did not answer.

Yuliana said, “Okay, 15 thousand dollars it is. Do you want me to transfer the money through WhatsApp Pay or will you give me a bank account number?”

Christopher’s face darkened. “Do I look like I’m short of that 15 thousand dollars?” He smiled and said, “Yuliana, you are so ungrateful!”

After saying that, he stood up and strode toward the door.

“Christopher.” Yuliana looked at his back and stopped him.

Christopher stopped but did not turn around.

Yuliana said, “You are the one who doesn’t want the money for your clothes, so I don’t owe you anything. As for what happened recently, whether you approached me because of Annabelle, Harry, or something else, I hope this is the end. I don’t want to have anything to do with any of you anymore. Please don’t disturb my

life

in the future.”

After hearing this, Christopher stood still with his back to Yuliana for a moment. Then, he suddenly turned around with cold eyes and a smile on his face. “Approach you? Aren’t you quite narcissistic, Yuliana?”

After saying that, the door opened and then closed with a loud bang.

Yuliana’s eyelashes trembled. She sat quietly for a moment, then picked up the clothes on the couch, threw them into the dirty clothes basket, and went back to her room to take another set of clean clothes for a

shower.
