Chapter 672 Tit for Tat
Kristina nodded.
She looked at Laura with an apologetic face. Then she smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Nixon. I don’t
feel well. I should go."
Laura smiled. "It's OK. I'm leaving anyway."
She paused and asked, "May I ask what was bothering you? My mother didn’t feel well for some time,
so I took her here for treatment. We know some really good doctors. I can give you some
recommendations if you want."
Kristina smiled gently and shook her head. "No need. I've had it for decades. It’s incurable."
Then she turned to look at Gentry.
"Gentry, let's go."
Gentry nodded and helped her stand up. Then they walked out.
Laura watched them leave. After a long while, she left too.
To her surprise, soon after she left...
Kristina and Christine ran into each other in the underground parking lot of the mall.
Gentry had gone to get the car, leaving Kristina alone waiting; however, as soon as he left, a car pulled
over beside Kristina. Then, Christine got out.
They stood face to face and were both stunned.
"Why are you here?"
Christine was furious. She looked around to make sure that there was no one around. Then she pulled
Kristina to a corner.
She stared at her fiercely and growled, "I told you not to come back. How did you come back? What on
earth do you want?"
Kristina was still standing there, feeling a bit overwhelmed.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of an engine. Then a black car pulled over beside them.
Gentry got out of the car with a sullen face and strode over. He pulled Kristina to his back. She was still
in a daze.
"What are you doing?"
He roared in anger.
Christine wasn't afraid of his roar at all, but Kristina finally realized what was happening.
She looked at the woman in front of her, and there was a trace of panic in her eyes. She explained,
"Christine, I... I didn't mean to break my promise. I can explain..."
However, Christine did not give her any chance.
She interrupted her and yelled, "Enough! Do you remember what you promised me? No matter what
reason you've got, I won't accept it as your excuse to break our deal!"
Hearing her words, Kristina felt her heart ached like it was stabbed. Tears soon streamed down her This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
cheeks.
"Christine..."
Christine looked at her and sneered. "What? Do you still think that we can be like we were in the old
days so that you can seduce him again? Kristina, have you no shame? Why are you always pretending
to be vulnerable? Do you think I will feel sorry for you? I WON’T!"
"Shut up!"
Gentry couldn't hold it in any longer. Ignoring Kristina's attempt to stop him, he stepped forward and
pulled Kristina back.
He glared at Christine and said sternly, "She's a person with her own life. You have no right to decide
where she should or should not go!"
Christine looked at him and then turned to Kristina. She sneered in disbelief.
"Surprise, surprise... There are still men striving to protect you even when you're this age."
Her gaze stopped on Gentry's face again, and she sneered, "Who are you? Her lover? Her husband?
Or nobody? Did she ask you to come back with her?"
Gentry's face became sullen. He replied severely, "It's none of your business. You are a decent person,
and you two used to be sisters... Why do you have to speak so harshly? That would only embarrass
both of you."
When Christine heard this, she acted as if it was the biggest joke.
She looked surprised in disbelieve at first, and then she burst out laughing.
"Decent? You just made my day! Did she tell you that we were sisters? Then let me tell you... I had
nothing to do with her twenty years ago when she seduced my husband!"
As soon as she said that, everyone was shocked.
Kristina's face turned ashen. She tensed up and looked at Christine's sullen face
Those terrible memories of the past flooded into her mind again, and her tears couldn't stop streaming
down.
"Christine, I didn’t mean to cause you any trouble. I just... I just want to come back and take a look..."
Christine sneered and said, "Take a look at what? At the man, you've been loving for decades? You
wanna find out if he's happy with me so that you can step between us again?"
"Kristina, if I knew what would happen today, I would never have saved you back then. I should've just
let you get drowned in the sea! So you wouldn't have to live like this now, and I wouldn't be disgusted
by you."
Kristina was shocked and took two steps back. Christine's words were like a knife stabbing deep into
her heart.
She bit her lower lip and shook her head after a while.
"Christine, I know you won't forgive me no matter what I say. So I won't say anything more. Don't worry,
I didn’t come back for any of those things you just said. Now that you don't want to see me, I'll be off
soon and far away. You'll never see me again."
Christine looked at her in silence.
The indifference in her eyes had said it all.
Kristina's eyes dimmed. A moment later, she took another step back. Then she bowed deeply to
Christine and walked towards the car.
Gentry frowned upon seeing that.
He glanced at Christine coldly and didn't say anything. Then he turned around and went after Kristina.
Christine let out a deep sigh of relief after Kristina got into the car and left.
With a stern face, she stared in the direction where the car left and told the maid behind her, "Go find
out when she came back and where she lives now."
The maid seemed older than others. She had been by her side since she was very young.
She nodded and respectfully replied, "Yes."
Christine was still in a bad mood, but not as bad as just now.
Kristina's pale and fragile face was totally different from how she looked in the old days.
Christine seemed to be hesitating, but she said nothing more and walked into the mall in the end.
