Chapter 863
The landlord nodded understandingly, "You young people have such ideas these days."
As they chatted casually, they arrived at the town square.
The stage was already set up.
They were early, yet many people had already gathered.
Christine remarked, "It's quite official."
The landlord, with a hint of pride, replied, "It's not just a neighborhood thing, you know. There are even some
celebrities here."
Christine was intrigued and wondered what kind of stars would show up.
It turned out to be a low-tier boy band and a few veteran performers.
Well, it was still a big stage.
After a while, she lost interest and made an excuse to go to the restroom.
Taking advantage of the evening, she wandered around.
She spotted a small shop and bought a bag of cheese-flavored chips.
She thought to herself that she couldn't live this way for too long and hoped Dailey would hurry up and get
married so he would stop bothering her.

Christine was lost in thought, and the sudden voice startled her so much that she nearly crushed the chips in her
hand.
"You..."
It wasn't that she wanted to be so harsh.
She was just afraid Dailey would trace her through Merritt.

Plus, with his frequent travels to filming sets, he must be taking flights and trains.
With Dailey's resources, he could easily track her down.
"Did you followhere?"
Merritt was also wearing a mask and a hat, dressed in a black jacket zipped up to his chin.
To anyone unfamiliar, he would be hard to recognize, but there was always a chance.
"I couldn't reach you and was worried..."
Christine decided to be honest with him.
But before she spoke, she found a secluded spot.
Cameras are far more common now than before.
Finding a blind spot wasn't easy.
"I'm trying to stay out of sight."
After hearing Christine's words, Merritt felt deeply guilty, "I'm

Merritt quickly waved his hands, "Not at all, Grandma is very resilient. Her only wish is for you to be rid of

"That's my wish too."
Christine paused, then patted his shoulder.
"I've taken it all to heart, but for now, let's not meet or contact each other."
"Alright, I'll leave right away."
With that, Merritt left.
Christine returned to watch the stage performance.
Afterward, she bought sgrilled skewers and walked back with the landlord.

On the way home, Serena's parents asked her, "You're sure about this?"
Serena nodded, "Absolutely."
Her parents nodded with smiles.
Their daughter had the family background, the looks, the education.
Far superior to that Christine, they thought.

For Dailey, Christine was the real gem.
He was aware of Serena's intentions but felt indifferent.
He wouldn't nurture feelings within the confines of the Clarkson family.
If he could break out of their grasp, he could surely free himself.

During their relationship, he promised her freedom.
But his actions had indeed confined her.
Yet, if he weren't firm, she would slip away.
He had sensed her fear that day.
