Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 89

They left the airport and took a taxi which drove onto the highway. Everleigh asked him about the beauty from the airport.

Christopher was busy playing with Adrienne, but he casually said, "We met on the plane. She sat next to me."

"Don't you have a girlfriend already? Did you go and flirt with other girls again?"

"Girlfriend? Which one are you talking about?"

Everleigh was speechless. "Rachel. You even said so on the phone yourself."

"We broke up."

"Again?" Everleigh was surprised. "If I remember correctly, you told me three days ago that you just confirmed your relationship with her. It's only been three days. Why did you break up this time?"

"Perhaps it's because it's a long- distance relationship. I have said that I can't accept longdistance relationships."

At first glance, it made sense. Christopher had to return to Ocpeace City to work, and he would not return to Maniville for a while. This was not just a long- distance relationship; it was a country-level long-distance relationship.

However, those were words that could only fool little girls. Everleigh had seen through Christopher a long time ago. Even if they weren't in a long-distance relationship, he could make up plenty of reasons for a breakup. In the end, it was because he was bored and wanted someone new. There were no other reasons.

Everleigh did not ask any more about Christopher's previous love. If she continued asking, it would only bring up weird new concepts for her children and they would be corrupted by him.

"By the way," Everleigh asked, "Can I wear this to your place? Would it be too casual?"

She had a patient to tend to in the morning, so she took her two children to the hospital. After work, she did not have time to change her clothes as she went straight to the airport. Hence, she only wore a simple white shirt and jeans.

Christopher glanced at her in confusion and said, "What are you afraid of? Ugly daughters-in-law also have to meet the in- laws too. I can't guarantee anything else, but I promise you that even if you are only wearing a potato sack, my mother will still like you."

Everleigh rolled her eyes at him, though she was still somewhat nervous.

Adrienne was tired. She left Christopher behind and went to her brother, watching him play some games.

Christopher whispered, "You're so heartless." Then he patted Everleigh on the shoulder. "Alright, don't be nervous. My family members are all nice and kind. They will be overjoyed at the fact that I brought a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law back. What's there to worry about?"

She pushed his hands away, "Are you really not going to explain it to your parents?"

"What's there to explain? We are married and that's a fact. It's written in black and white; we even went through official procedure in Maniville. What's the use of denying it? It's too late for you to run away now."

Seven years ago, when Everleigh first arrived in Maniville, she was pregnant with her children. Luckily, she met Christopher, and they even became good friends. Later, for the convenience of helping her take care of her children, Christopher dragged her along to register their marriage.

This was something that would never have happened had it been anyone else. It just so happened that the man whom she had met was Christopher. His worldview of marriage was no different than dating. In his opinion, they were just helping each other out.

The elders of the Meyer family had had a headache because of their son. They were always urging him to settle down and get married and show them the marriage certificate. Thanks to her, Christopher was able to have peace for quite a few years.

Even though he could hide for now, he could not hide forever. Back then, Christopher had studied abroad, so Christopher had ways to prevent his family from meeting his 'wife'. However, now that he had returned, it would be inappropriate for them not to meet.

Christopher said, "My mom told me that if I did not get a genuine daughter- in- law when I returned, she would break my legs and freeze my bank card."

"Let her freeze it. It's not like you don't have a job."
