Chapter 219: Hit by Christopher

Christine’s POV:

I quickly tried to regain my composure, forcing a smile as I said, “Sorry, it’s just a habit.” As soon as the words left my mouth, I wished I could bite my own tongue. What did I mean by habit? Didn’t that clearly show I had already been fantasizing about him?

“Christopher, what are you doing here?” I asked, curiosity bubbling up inside me.

He walked toward me, his steps calm but deliberate, and asked, “Are you feeling better?”

Christopher is worried about me? I could hardly contain my happiness. Even though I was still hooked up to an IV, I felt like this was the happiest moment of my life.

“I’m fine, just some minor bruises,” I replied, and only then did I realize—how did Christopher even know I was hurt? Not only did he not mind that I was an Omega, but he was genuinely worried about me. We had only met at school before, and I had been in one of his music videos. Did Christopher actually remember me?

Christopher looked at me and said, “I’m glad you’re okay. I’m sorry, I wasn’t paying attention while driving and accidentally hit you.”

“If you need compensation, just let my assistant know the amount.”

I was stunned. I had been hit by Christopher? What kind of crazy luck is that?

“I’m fine, Christopher; don’t worry about it. I’m sure it wasn’t intentional. There’s no need for compensation,” I said with a warm, gracious smile.

After hearing this, Christopher was silent for a moment, his brow furrowing as he insisted, “You don’t have to do this. Hitting you was my fault. If you need anything, just let me know.”

Seeing how serious and earnest he was, I couldn’t help but laugh. “Really, I’m fine. Besides, I’m not trying to scam you.”

“Christopher, don’t take it to heart. If you still feel bad, how about I add you on WhatsApp? I can message you if anything comes up.”

Christopher thought for a moment, then pulled out his phone and added me on WhatsApp. As soon as we finished adding each other, his phone rang. I glanced at the screen. The caller ID was Hayley.

“Christopher, Hayley is calling you,” I pointed out.

Chapter 219: Hit by Christopher

Christopher swiftly put his phone away, focusing his gaze on me. “Did you tell her about what happened? About me hitting you?”

I shook my head and said, “No, I just found out it was you who hit me. I haven’t told Hayley. I assume she’s calling you about something else?”

Christopher grunted and said, “Alright, rest well. If you need anything, let my manager know.” With that, Christopher answered the call and left the room.

Hayley’s POV:

“Is something wrong?” I heard Christopher’s voice through the receiver, so I got straight to the point. “Where are you right now?”

There was a brief pause before he responded, “I’m at the hospital.”

I was taken aback. “Are you sick?”

Christopher quickly denied it. “No, I’m here to visit a friend.”

Since he wasn’t going to explain further, I didn’t press the issue. Instead, I said, “Do you have time tonight? I need a favor.”

Christopher said directly, “You can just tell me over the phone. I have two appearances tonight, so I’m not sure I’ll have time.”

Hearing that, my last hope evaporated. “Well, forget it. I’ll figure something else out,” I said, ending the call.

Thomas quickly asked, “How did it go? Did he agree?”

I shook my head and said, “He’s busy tonight. It’s not going to happen.”

Thomas shrugged nonchalantly and suggested, “Then maybe someone else would be better. Benjamin would be more suitable. Have you considered him?”

Should I choose Benjamin instead? I looked at Thomas, slowly considering the idea.
