Chapter 127 The Person Sleeping Next To You

The blonde hair in the photo was particularly eye-catching.

Yuliana paused for two seconds when she saw it. She then clicked on the screen to enlarge the photo.

The photo was taken from the side, with a man and a woman hugging each other. The camera seemedto have been zoomed in, and only the upper bodies of the couple were photographed. Although thepicture quality was not very good, one could still clearly see the man’s facial features. Meanwhile, thewoman’s head was buried on the man’s shoulder. Besides, her lengthy hair covered her face. Hence,no one couldn’t see her face. But, based on her figure and outfit, one could predict that she was apretty lady.

Besides the man and woman who hugged each other, there were many people walking past them inthe photo as well.

They appeared to be a couple who were lost in their own world while hugging each other in a crowdedplace and were reluctant to part ways.

Yuliana stared at it for a while. With a click, the photo was retracted to its original size.

Lexie was the one who had sent the message in the group chat. She had sent three photos as well.

The first two photos were taken from a distance. The first photo showed the man and the womanstanding face to face. They were very close to each other and were talking about something. Thesecond photo depicted the man raising his hand and caressing the woman’s hair, which indicated theyhad an intimate relationship. As for the third photo, it was the one that Yuliana had enlarged.

After posting the photos in the group chat, Lexie tagged Yuliana and asked: [Ms. Livingstone, the manwith blonde hair in the picture is your boyfriend, right?]

After Lexie had sent such a message, the group chat soon became lively.

A teacher said in the group chat: [This is Ms. Livingstone’s boyfriend. Didn’t we meet him last time atMr. Norris’ birthday party? He is handsome and looks like a TV star. Ms. Anderson, where did you seehim?]

Lexie replied: [I saw him at the airport when I sent my friend there this afternoon. I was a distance awayfrom them. I took this photo because I felt he looked a lot like Ms. Livingstone’s boyfriend.]

Then, another teacher asked: [But who is this woman in the photo? She doesn’t look like Ms.Livingstone]

Lexie replied: [She isn’t Ms. Livingstone? I didn’t even notice that. Anyway, she was in good shape anddressed well. She appeared to be a perfect match for Ms. Livingstone’s boyfriend. She’s probably alsoa beautiful woman.]

The messages in the group chat kept popping up at a rapid pace, but Yuliana didn’t read through eachand every one of them. Instead, she left the app.

The WhatsApp notifications continued to ring after she had exited the app.

Yuliana then opened her phone’s settings and turned off the notification sound.

After sitting there in a daze for a while, she got up, took off her clothes, and went to the bathroom for ashower.

When the warm water poured down onto her head, Yuliana had to close her eyes, but she could see animage. appear in her mind. It was the image of a man and a woman hugging each other.

The photo was pleasant to the eyes as the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful.

When Yuliana came out of the shower, she heard her phone ringing. She picked her phone up andfound that it was Fiona’s call.

She answered the call. “Ms. Clark, it’s so late. Why haven’t you rested yet?”

Fiona was caught off guard by Yuliana’s calm tone. ‘I’m about to sleep. After hesitating for a fewseconds, she asked, “Ms. Livingstone, have you read the messages in the group chat?”

“Yes.” Yuliana then hummed lightly and said nothing else.

Fiona had no idea what Yuliana was thinking after hearing such a response. There was no doubt thatthe man in the photo was Christopher, and if they could easily recognize him, Yuliana would, too.

Fiona had only noticed the tons of messages in the group chat when she was about to sleep. Afterlooking. through all the messages and realizing that Yuliana had said nothing, she called the latter outof worry.

However, based on the circumstances, it seemed that that call was totally unnecessary.

Fiona remained silent for a moment. She then said, “You should take a rest now, Ms. Livingstone. I’llsee you

at school tomorrow.”

“Okay. Good night.” Yuliana paused and added, “Ms. Clark, thank you!”

Fiona was surprised to hear that. Slowly, she smiled. “You don’t have to be so polite, do you? Get somerest.”

After ending the call with Fiona, Yuliana poured half a glass of warm water and went to bed afterfinishing it.

After dinner, Christopher played games with Alex.

As the phone didn’t have much battery, it automatically turned off after they had played a few rounds ofthe game.

Upon charging it, Christopher was invited to the study by Kendrick to discuss work. Christopher onlypulled out the charger when he came downstairs and was about to leave the Solace residence. Hethen casually checked his WhatsApp. His gray eyes were fixed on one place when he saw a call log.

“Yuliana called me?” he thought.

Christopher’s eyes darkened, and he pressed his tongue against his cheeks. He then returnedYuliana’s call, but no one answered it.

After checking the time, he noticed it was almost eleven o’clock.

“Yuliana would have fallen asleep at this hour, I guess,” he thought.

Hence, Christopher stopped dialing her WhatsApp. He then strode toward his car with his long legs anddrove out of the Solace residence.

The temperature in Juxshire was particularly high during the day, but it was a little cold at night.

Yuliana had crawled into bed for a while, but her feet were still cold.

Yuliana was somewhat healthy, and her feet would hardly turn cold.

Since she was afraid of the cold and her body was still chilly, she couldn’t sleep.

Yuliana figured she should change to a thicker quilt, but she was lazy to move since she was already inbed.

She reasoned that if she stayed in bed a little longer, her body would begin to warm up.

However, her body didn’t warm up. Instead, she was getting sleepier. When her mind was in a dazeand she was about to fall asleep, a knock on the door woke her up.

When she regained her senses, she remembered the illusions she had had when she was trying tohave a nap in the afternoon. Hence, she dismissed it as an illusion.

She ignored it and closed her eyes to continue sleeping.

After a while, the phone on the low cabinet next to the bed rang.

Yuliana frowned and reached out to take the phone. She lifted her eyelids and looked at the caller IDon the screen. When she had a clear look at it, she froze for about two seconds, and her sleepiness lefther in an instant.

She stared at the caller ID for a long time before answering it.

After the phone was connected, both of them remained silent for a moment.

Then, Christopher said in a faint voice, “Open the door.”

Yuliana fixed her gaze in one direction quietly and didn’t say anything.

After a while, she hung up the phone, turned on the lights in the room, and got up to open the door.

After opening it, Yuliana went back to her room without looking at him.

Christopher changed his shoes by the door and stared at her thin figure for a moment. He then asked,“Did you call me on WhatsApp not long ago?”

Yuliana ignored him. She returned to her room, took a quilt and a pillow, and put them on the couch.She then headed back to her room.

When Christopher saw her actions, his face darkened immediately.

He stepped forward, grabbed Yuliana’s arm, and asked in an angry tone, “Yuliana, what are youdoing?”

Upon hearing such, Yuliana turned to look at him with a calm expression on her face. Her gaze wascold. when she looked at hirn, though. “I opened the door for you because I didn’t want to wake myneighbors at midnight, but I didn’t want to sleep in the same bed with you.”

“You don’t want to sleep in the same bed with me? If so, who do you want to sleep with?” In a sarcastictone, Christopher added, “Harry?”

Yuliana pursed her lips and said, “Christopher, I don’t want to argue with you.”

“Do you think I want to argue with you?” Christopher tightened his fingers which were grabbing Yuliana.“Yuliana, don’t forget that we’ve gotten the marriage certificate. You’re my wife now. There’s nothingwrong with us sleeping in the same bed! What’s wrong? Are you planning to wiggle your tail like a dogat Harry if he waves at you again?”

Yuliana’s face instantly turned grim.

Without hesitation, she raised her hand and slapped Christopher in the face.

She used so much force that she could feel her palm burning after she slapped him. Her fingerscouldn’t stop trembling as well.

Meanwhile, the left side of Christopher’s face instantly turned red.

His expression had turned sullenly grim, and he kept glaring at Yuliana.

When Yuliana noticed his gaze, she started to panic. She subconsciously wanted to run away, but

Christopher pulled her, causing her to crash into his arms.
