Chapter 325 What’s Your Relationship With Her
Sitting across from Angela was none other than Yaxley.
Yaxley had left school early due to family matters. After meeting with his family, he contacted Angela, only to find out that she was no longer at the library. He then arranged to meet her at a cafe outside of school.
Angela gladly accepted the invitation regarding the training project.
However, before she arrived, she received a call from Cassie.
It was only on the way that she learned about Fanny and Christopher.
She heard that their matter had caused quite a stir in Riverdon, even making the front headlines of the Riverdon Daily.

Cassie sounded quite upset on the phone, but Angela didn’t seem to care much about Fanny’s situation.
As Angela neared her stop, before hanging up the phone, she learned from Cassie that George had been injured by Linda again and was sent to the hospital.
This news surprised Angela. After all, she thought George wouldn’t dare to provoke the crazy woman again after what happened last time.
Unexpectedly, George was still passionate about Linda, even after everything that had happened.
After sharing the good news with Angela and mentioning that she would tell Jessica, Cassie! quickly ended the call.
Meanwhile, Angela suppressed a sigh and headed to the cafe.
She recalled the topic given by her mentor and the information she had found in the library. She wanted to quickly organize the research details after meeting Yaxley, so she didn’t notice. that two people in the distance had been staring at her intently.
“Angela is here.” Yaxley saw Angela arrive and glanced behind her, asking, “Has Mr. Lawson not finished his work yet?”
Angela replied, “He’s at the branch office. I didn’t want to distract him, so I didn’t ask him to pick me up.”

Jonathan had told her to let him know when she was ready to leave school. He would come to pick her up, but she didn’t want to delay Jonathan too much. Instead, she planned to meet with Yaxley first and then go over to Jonathan.
“Okay.” Yaxley didn’t ask any more questions. “Sorry. I had some things to deal with at home this afternoon, so I can only finalize the topic with you now,” he stated.
Yaxley had been called away by his family during lunch, and Angela naturally understood.
“It’s okay. It’s not too late now.”
Neither of them was fond of small talk. Without exchanging pleasantries, they took out several topics, analyzed and compared them, and then settled on one.
They had finalized the topic and hadn’t had a chance to delve deeper into the discussion when a voice suddenly sounded next to their table.
“Angela! Have you no shame? You’re meeting someone secretly like this and getting so close!”
Christopher’s voice was loud and full of anger, as if he wanted everyone present to hear.
There weren’t many customers in the cafe, only five or six tables. However, they all looked toward their direction.
Angela and Yaxley both looked up at Christopher.
Before Angela could speak, Yaxley coldly asked, “Who are you?”
“Who am I?” Christopher was stared at by Yaxley, which inexplicably reminded him of the
Yoanna looked at him. He angrily slammed the edge of the table and shouted, “I am the one who catches cheaters!”

Fanny stood next to Christopher, and she was startled by his table slam. Others were also drawn to him and caught the explosive information in his words.
Catching cheaters?
It was all in human nature. As soon as people heard about this piece of juicy gossip, their eyes were glued to the few people involved.
Some even moved closer, afraid of missing out on what was being said.
‘Catching cheaters? Have we done anything wrong? Or perhaps, do you have a relationship with her?” Yaxley completely disregarded Christopher, looking at the latter as if he were a clown.

Angela remained silent, observing Christopher and also noticing Fanny, who was beside him.
While they were in the car, Cassie had informed her that Fanny and Christopher had a bad reputation in Riverdon, and their days were numbered.
Angela never expected that these two would show up in Northland so quickly.
She had seen Christopher before in the cafeteria at Northland Medical University, but she had never imagined Fanny would also come to Northland.
Christopher was almost silenced by Yaxley’s words, but he quickly pointed at Angela and retorted. “Do you not know that she is a married woman? She is from Riverdon, and she likes to flirt with people like you from Northland!”
He looked at Yaxley, who was dressed and behaved very appropriately, and could only assume that he must be a person from Northland, just like Yoanna. Christopher thought that Yaxley probably had no idea how Angela was in Riverdon, so he started to fabricate stories
about her.
He recalled when he had encountered Angela in the cafeteria at Northland Medical University–Angela had been defended by two students from the university, which made Christopher feel aggrieved. He still couldn’t shake off the frustration.
“Hmph!” Yaxley sneered coldly, not even moving the corners of his mouth. “If you had a bit of brains, you would know that there is absolutely nothing inappropriate going on between us.”
Angela then stood up and looked at Christopher, asking, “What do you get from spreading rumors about me?”
鴦
She couldn’t understand what Christopher was thinking. Does he believe that just because he saw me with someone, he can label me as an adulteress?
At that point, Fanny chimed in, “We are not spreading rumors about you. You know very well what
you have done.”
It was a clever move to muddy the waters, which only piqued the interest of the onlookers
even more.
Some even started gossiping about Angela, with words like ‘married woman
on their lips.
Christopher looked smugly at Angela, clearly having heard what the others were saying.
After looking around, Angela commented, “Is a married woman not allowed to have coffee with a friend? Besides, I was just discussing a topic with a senior of mine.”

Seeing no one respond, she continued, “The country has been open for so many years. Why hasn’t your mindset opened up along with it?”
After speaking, Angela coldly glanced at Christopher and Fanny. She then picked up the book. on the table and said to Yaxley, “Yaxley, let’s go. There are some nutcases here.”
Yaxley took his things and left, not even sparing a glance for Christopher.
The onlookers around realized that Christopher was falsely accusing someone, and their eyes toward Christopher and Fanny were filled with scrutiny and disdain.
Christopher was so angry that his face turned pale. Being watched by everyone around made him feel ashamed and full of frustration.
He grabbed Fanny and walked out, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief once outside the cafe.
Fanny also felt uncomfortable under the gazes of those people. She wanted to find Angela and give her a piece of her mind after Angela’s arrogant behavior, but with Christopher still round, she managed to restrain herself from acting impulsively.
