Chapter 84
Christina spun around.
She saw Jennifer standing with Ethan and William, all of them just standing at the door, watching her.
"If you need money, just tell us. We can lend you some. There's no need to become someone's mistress. You haven't even graduated yet. How can you degrade yourself like this?" Jennifer's words seemed sympathetic, but each one was designed to make others think the worst.
"Do you realize you're trespassing?" Christina shot her a cold look. "Get out."
"William has a villa here too. I came to see him today. When I got to the yard, I heard your voice. I was worried you might be in trouble, so I came to check. Don't misunderstand, I'm not here to mock you. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I'll do my best to help." Jennifer continued her insincere speech.
The woman with the wavy hair already disliked Christina and wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
Her face was full of mockery. "This is my husband's house. The real trespasser is you. What, you think you're the owner now, you little thief?"
"Christina!" William suddenly called her name.
His eyes were fierce, and his tone was even colder. "Get out of here right now. Stop embarrassing yourself!"
He couldn't believe Christina had the nerve.
Being a mistress to a married man was bad enough, but getting caught in the act? She was disgracing the Cavendish family.
"If you're sick, see a doctor. Don't act crazy here." Christina met his murderous gaze. "I'm a designer. I came here for work. It's not what you think."
Of course, William didn't believe her.
What kind of designer gets yelled at like that?
At a time like this, Christina was still trying to lie.
Jennifer walked over, pretending to be concerned, and took Christina's hand. "Come with us. I'll have William help resolve this. At least don't let it get to the school, or you won't even get your diploma."
Her words reminded the wavy-haired woman.
"You came to my house, and now you want to leave just like that? No way. I'm going to your school to ask how they educate their students!"
"Don't be like that. She made a mistake, but she deserves a chance to make amends. Name your price, and I'll compensate you for her." Jennifer was almost laughing inside but kept up her act.
Christina pulled out the contract she had signed with Mia and threw it in the woman's face.
"Look closely. I came here with Ms. Mia Wilson. Mia is Aiden's wife."
Hearing Mia's name, the woman panicked.
Mia was here too?
But she hadn't seen Mia. Was Christina lying, or was Mia upstairs?
If Mia was upstairs, she was in big trouble.
"Christina, you came prepared, but forging a contract is illegal." Jennifer was still stubborn.
Christina chuckled. "Why bother?"
Jennifer had rushed over, eager to frame her, only to humiliate herself.
William took the contract and glanced at it. Unlike Jennifer, he could tell it was legitimate.
So Christina really was here for business. He had misunderstood her.
"William, are you going to say this contract is fake too?" Christina mocked him.
Before William could respond, Mia came down with Aiden.
Her eyes were red, but she never looked back. Aiden, on the other hand, was nervous, constantly explaining himself.
The wavy-haired woman's first instinct was to run, but Christina quickly grabbed her arm and told Mia, "This lady thought I was another mistress and kept saying Aiden was her husband."
"No, it's a misunderstanding. My husband just has the same name." The woman tried to lie.
But with witnesses and evidence, who would believe her?
Mia sneered. "Don't worry, I won't fight you for a bad man. I'll get a lawyer and file for divorce. He's all yours."
The woman was initially pleased.
Until Mia pulled out the property deed. "But I should warn you, this house is my premarital property, as are the others. His job was given by my father. After the divorce, he won't get a dime."
"Mia, I don't want a divorce. We have a child. Give me another chance. Our daughter needs her father." Aiden pleaded.
Mentioning their daughter made Mia hesitate.
Christina reminded her, "His daughter needs her father, and so does his son."
Mia wasn't stupid. She immediately understood the implication.
Aiden not only had a mistress but also a son. How dare he?
"This divorce is happening. No one will take my daughter's inheritance." Mia made a call.
Soon, the security guards arrived. Under Mia's orders, they dragged Aiden and the woman out, leaving the villa quiet.
"Ms. Windsor, I want to demolish all the renovations and start over. I don't want anything they've touched. We'll sign a new contract, and you can handle the entire renovation." Mia smiled at Christina.
"Thank you for coming with me today. We're friends now. If you ever need help, call me anytime."
Jennifer watched, feeling miserable.
Why?
She had rushed over to see Christina humiliated, not to see her make friends.
But no matter how upset she was, Jennifer didn't dare show it. In front of William, she always maintained her gentle demeanor.
"Jennifer," Christina suddenly called her name. "You were so concerned about me earlier. Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, aren't you happy for me?"
"Yes." Jennifer forced a smile that looked worse than crying.
Christina wanted to mock her more, but William frowned. "Jennifer was just worried about you. Don't be unreasonable."
His words were ridiculous.
Jennifer had framed her, and he had joined in the accusations. Now, she hadn't even said anything that harsh, and he was already defending Jennifer.
Christina couldn't stand their disgusting faces anymore. She shut the villa door and decided to take a walk on the beach.
