Chapter 312 1 Only See Her as a Sister
Springgate Estates passed a peaceful afternoon.
Meanwhile, Fanny was incredibly busy. After arguing with Sophia in the coffee
shop in the afternoon, she headed straight to the Sanders Family.
Fanny hailed a cab. She still had a noticeable slap mark on her face, and her
clothes were equally disheveled, with coffee stains from the earlier incident.
But the thought of Sophia's distraught appearance made Fanny feel a sense of
Although Sophia had initiated the conflict, it was Fanny who emerged victorious.

tisfaction.
With a visible slap mark on her face, all she had to do was find Christopher and
complain to him. Christopher would definitely not continue associating with
Sophia.
As Fanny thought about how to handle Sophia when she arrived at the Sanders
Family, she was unaware that the Sanders family was not at peace either.
Christopher followed Michael downstairs, where Michael sternly instructed him to
apologize sincerely.
Although Christopher felt uncomfortable, he agreed earnestly.
When they saw Carles downstairs, Christopher politely greeted him and then
sincerely apologized.
“Mr. Martinez, this matter is my fault. I didn’t consider Sophia's feelings.”
“Of course. It's your fault. What do you mean you didn’t consider Sophia's
feelings? It seems to me like you didn’t even have Sophia in your eyes.” Carlos*
anger hadn't subsided, and he reprimanded Christopher sternly.
Christopher hurriedly continued to apologize and soothe him.
Carlos held up a photo and demanded an explanation.
Christopher quickly recounted what had happened that day, not leaving out any
details.
However, he referred to Fanny as someone who was like a sister to him rather
than emphasizing any romantic involvement.

“I really only see her as a sister now,” Christopher affirmed. “Mr. Martinez, you
can check the surveillance footage from that day. I left the hotel room shortly after
escorting Fanny there.”
He hadn't stayed long in Fanny's hotel room that day because her mood was
very low, and he had comforted her briefly before leaving.
Reflecting on the incident, Christopher felt a sense of relief that he had departed
early. Otherwise, things might have been unclear.
Mainly, he didn’t want Fanny's reputation to be tarnished.
“That night, I went to see Fanny because her mother had become vegetative,
and she was too distraught to go home. She asked me to go out to ask for help
finding a doctor,” Christopher explained.
Carlos listened to Christopher's explanation with suspicion.
He could see his daughter’s fondness for Christopher. But even if Sophia liked
him, he wouldn't let her marry Christopher if he was involved with someone else.
However, if the situation was as Christopher described, he could reluctantly allow
Christopher to make amends and then smooth things over.
“Are you telling the truth? I'll have someone check right now.” It was simple and
quick to check the surveillance footage since they knew which hotel it was.
Upon hearing Carlos“ words, Christopher breathed a sigh of relief and quickly
assured him before sending someone to check the surveillance.
Soon, the surveillance footage confirmed Christopher's account. He had left the
hotel room. less than two minutes after escorting Fanny in.
Seeing the situation casing somewhat, Michael hurriedly said, “Now that
everything is clear. The marriage alliance can't just be abandoned. Many people
in Riverdon know about our two families’ affairs. Mr. Martinez, do you agree?”
After some thought, Carlos said, “Sophia likes you. Don't let her down.”
Christopher quickly agreed.
Carlos continued, “Even if you see Fanny as a sister now, we don’t want to
speculate about her intentions. Can you do one thing? Cut off contact with that
Fanny.”
Christopher's expression changed, and he was about to refuse when Michael
suddenly said, “Mr. Martinez, what are you saying? Even if you don’t mention this
matter, we will still make

him cut off contact with Fanny.”
Seeing Carlos“ expression improve slightly, Michael signaled Teresa, who was
beside him.
Teresa quickly grasped his signal and spoke gently, “In fact, Christopher had
already cut ties with that woman. It was she who kept pestering Christopher.
Christopher has always been a kind child. When he heard about her mother’s
accident, he immediately wanted to help, but he was deceived by Fanny.”
Teresa had always been dissatisfied with Fanny and didn't hold back in narrating
how she had been entangling Christopher.
After listening to Teresa's words, Carlos looked at Christopher and asked him to
promise.
Michael and Teresa fixed their gaze on Christopher, who reluctantly gave his
word of
assurance.
“I promise. I will never contact Fanny again.”
In his heart, he thought that he would never be caught again.
Carlos felt much more satisfied now and thought about his daughter still being
heartbroken at home. He said, “You, come back with me to the Martinez Family
and comfort Sophia properly. Since she is in a relationship with you, you should
take care of her and treat her well. She has been crying all day at home, and you
didn’t even show up.”
Christopher didn’t want to go. But in the end, he agreed and said, “Mr. Martinez,
wait for me. I'll go change clothes.”
He had to go and comfort someone. He couldn't just go casually.
Carlos agreed and felt stifled inside the house. He went to the yard to wait.
He tried calling Sophia to inform her to be prepared at home to welcome him.
But the call wouldn't go through.
As he was about to try again, he caught sight of a figure outside the Sanders
Family gate, peering inside.
The person outside the gate was none other than Fanny, who had just arrived in
a cab.
