My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back

Chapter 190

At Osimor Residence in Norham, Christopher left the bathroom with water droplets on

his hair.

He wore a large, black silk bathrobe with a black sash around the waist tied in a simple knot. The collar

was slightly open, partly showing his se xy and charming collarbone.

After being busy for several days, he could finally go home. He immediately had a shower upon

returning.

Walking to the wine cabinet, he took a glass and poured himself some red wine.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Hearing the phone’s vibrating sound, Christopher swirled his wine glass as he walked to the table.

He lowered his head and glanced at the caller ID that showed Blake’s name. He immediately knew

Blake might have gotten Kimberly’s information.

He quickly pressed the answer button and turned on the loudspeaker.

Blake’s erratic voice sounded like broken beads cra ckling as he said, “Christopher, why is it so hard to

reach you? I bet you’d be clueless when your wife runs away with another man one day.”

Blake teased, deliberately trying to disgust Christopher.

He was sure anyone would get upset like him if they couldn’t reach Christopher after a dozen phone

calls.

Now that Christopher had answered, Blake wouldn’t miss the chance to tease him and

make him feel a sense of crisis.

As per an old saying, one should thrive in calamity and perish in happiness.

Being talented and beautiful, Kimberly could be regarded as a rare beauty who could excel at

housework and social life.

Blake was sure that countless men were coveting Kimberly, and after learning about her, he saw her in

a new light after that first sight of her.

He felt he would pursue Kimberly if she weren’t Christopher’s wife.

Even though what Blake said was a joke, with his good understanding of Christopher as his buddy, he

knew it annoyed the latter.

frowned deeply.

He pondered, ‘What? It’s already troublesome to deal with Gerald, yet another man has come into the

picture?’

He fell silent as he recalled the countless missed calls he had seen when answering the phone.

He replied faintly, “I had an important meeting in the afternoon, so I muted my phone.”

Blake said smugly, “Oh? Are you still the Christopher I know? Learning to explain now? You never

cared about others’ feelings in the past. Did the sun rise in the west today?”

After the probing, Blake confirmed that Kimberly’s importance in Christopher’s heart should not be

underestimated.

With his goal achieved, Blake stopped joking and went back to business, saying, “Kimberly brought a

young girl with her this afternoon for shopping in the luxury area at Dellmoor Tower. It seemed that they

were preparing for an important event. I saw them chatting happily like best friends.”

Christopher stood by the table and hit it rhythmically with his hand.

Despite showing an icy gaze, he felt relieved and smiled faintly after hearing the words “chatting

happily.”

He thought, ‘Looks like this woman’s vitality is resilient. I thought she would be depressed for some

time because of the incident. If she’s in the mood for shopping and is happy, her self-recovery is almost

done.’

“An important event?” Christopher asked, feeling his curiosity rise at the statement.

Christopher’s voice sounded slightly h oar se as he had been recently working excessively without

enough rest, causing his tonsils to inflame.

He cleared his throat and asked again, “Do you know what the event is? Who participated?”

The questions were not difficult for Blake since he served as Kimberly’s secret bodyguard for free

during that period.

After Kimberly and Genevieve left Dellmoor Tower, Blake spied on them immediately.

Since Christopher told him to do so, he would naturally be on guard at all times.

After Kimberly returned to the Larson residence, she didn’t leave again.

The people sent by Blake had been giving feedback that Kimberly did not leave the building.

Blake answered, “It’s probably a private gathering at home.”

Christopher felt troubled for being far away in Norham, thinking he would join the fun after hearing the

news if he was in Dellmoor. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

He had obvious schemes in mind, plotting to be there as a supervisor.

He felt jealous at the thought of the men eagerly looking at Kimberly, who was as beautiful as a

butterfly.

He asked, “Any idea who went to the gathering?”

The jealousy in the tone of Christopher’s questioning became stronger.

Blake was confused by the question but replied, “Dude, you just asked me to ensure her safety as she

travels. I can’t interfere with her family matters. Don’t forget that I’m working without proper credentials.

Your ex-wife might find out one day and think I’m a stalker. If I was sent to the police station by any

chance, you have to get me released.”

Blake’s tone was a mixture of joking and self-mockery.

Christopher teased, “You have to be careful then. She’s not someone to be trifled with.”

Hearing this, Blake became furious and thought, ‘What kind of a buddy are you? Sacrificing me for a

woman!’

From then on, he labeled Christopher as a friend who valued romance over friendship.

After hanging up the call, Christopher rubbed his forehead; his head was aching. Before the meeting

this afternoon, Lilian had called him. She mentioned that Maxwell wanted to leave home and seek

refuge with Kimberly in Dellmoor.

Christopher was confused by the statement and called Maxwell for confirmation, discovering that the

latter was going to Dellmoor to make peace with Yandel and had unexpectedly come up with a trick to

gain sympathy.

Maxwell decided to go alone, but Lilian didn’t agree with it due to Maxwell’s old age, claiming that she

would be alone for the rest of her life if something happened to him.

Christopher was impressed by Maxwell’s cu n ningnes s for knowing that Kimberly was a kind person.

It was the reason Maxwell was sure she would sympathize with him if she saw him alone in an

unfamiliar city.

He planned to enter the Larson residence through this trick.

07:12 Thu, 1 Feb

After staying in the Levine manor for a long time, he was bored to death.

Heather had gone on a vacation, and Christopher spent most of his time working, so nobody could play

chess with Maxwell.

If Maxwell could live in the Larson residence, the triplets could accompany him, and with Kimberly’s

outstanding chess skills, she could play chess with him.

With that, he could spend his time leisurely.

Most importantly, he used the roundabout way for his plan, with his ultimate goal being Yandel.

With Yandel’s stubbornness, it was difficult for Maxwell to soften his heart, even with his persistent

determination.

Therefore, he had to get Kimberly on his side. With her participation, the plan would become much

more efficient.

Christopher had experienced Maxwell’s stubbornness countless times, so even if he were to stop him,

he would just hit a roadblock again.

Besides, he thought Maxwell’s strategy was brilliant.

With Maxwell going to the Larson residence, Christopher felt that his plan to win Kimberly back seemed

closer to success.
