Christopher was insatiable by nature, rarely feeling gratified by anything in the world.


    Making Justin pay was one of the unlikely things that pleased him.


    “Mr. Iverson, what brings you here?” Snapping out of her thoughts, Be asked curiously.


    “I’ve moved here. I’m living in the vi behind yours.” Christopher stared at her affectionately.


    “What?” Be was shocked.


    Justin’s heart dropped as he had a bad feeling.


    “We’re neighbors now, Be.” While talking, Christopher tilted his head and smiled in a youthful and


    gentle manner. He extended his right hand to her. “Hello, neighbor. I hope we can get along.”


    Though baffled, Be remained unruffled and politely shook Christopher’s hand.


    Christopher managed to mercilessly and cleanly cut off Justin, the ex- husband who once was most


    intimate with Be.


    “Be, do you want to visit my new home?”


    Like Be, Christopher was an opportunist. He extended an invitation to her. “I bought a lot of


    groceries, including some fresh salmon and crayfish. They’re all your favorites. I’ll cook for you.”


    His words were filled with love.


    Christopher was considerate, attentive, and a gentleman. He was the boyfriend of every woman’s


    dreams.


    “I’ll need to take a rain check. We live in the same neighborhood, so


    we’ll run into each other more frequently. We have plenty of time in


    the future. Thank you for the offer, though, Mr. Iverson.” Be was


    flustered and not in the right mind for a housewarming session.


    “My mother will be at my ce tonight.”


    Christopher’s eyes fixated on Be as he invited her earnestly once.


    more. “I told her that I’d invite you over to the house for dinner. She


    was excited and said that it had been years since shest saw you. She wanted to meet Chairman


    Thompson’s favorite daughter.”


    Be was taken aback. “Is Mrs. Iverson back from Sentania?”


    “Yeah. I brought my mother back.” Christopher grinned with relief.


    “That’s great.”


    Justin was rmed.


    However, he could not add a word to their conversation. All he could


    do was stand there and do nothing.


    Justin, who sat on top of the business world, had such moments of


    desperation too.


    He had be a fool for his littledy.


    “You know my mother, Be. She rarely has moments when she’s


    conscious and herself.”


    The sadness in Christopher’s eyes tugged on Be’s heartstrings. “I


    hope you can meet her when she’s of sound mind. It makes the


    encounter meaningful. Can I be abrupt and ask you for this small


    favor?”


    The Iversons and the Thompsons went way back. Plus, Be did not


    really have anything nned tonight anyway. She did not have a


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    reason to refuse.


    “Alright then. Sorry to trouble you for dinner, Mr. Iverson.”


    Fueled with rage, Justin clenched his fists.


    “Not at all. I want to thank you for epting my invitation, Be.”


    With joy apparent on his face, Christopher gestured for Be toe


    along with him.


    They then walked right past Justin.


    However, Justin was not one to give up or back down so easily,


    especially when it came topeting with Christopher. He did not


    want to let the love of his life walk away with another man.


    What should he do?


    He contemted his options.


    His inner voice was telling him to leave his ego out the door and stop


    Be from leaving.


    Nothing was more important than his wife. He had to keep her.


    “Be!”


    As his heart pounded out of his chest, Justin took strides to keep up


    with the pair.


    Before Justin could get close to Be, Christopher sensed Justin. He turned around and aggressively


    pulled a punch, aiming straight for Justin’s face.
