Chapter 13: What happens to him?
As Cristian raised his head impatiently and was about to scold her, he found that the woman had a sweaty forehead with red eyes, making him stop saying what he intended to say.
What happened to him?
For a woman like her, who replaced her sister by marrying him and was even pregnant, he should just kick her out right away, but now what was he doing? Was he giving her the opportunity to stay here?
Cristian became wide awake suddenly, grabbed Serena’s wrist and pushed her straight out.
Unexpectedly, Serena’s thin shoulders hit the hard wall, and she met the man’s icy gaze when she looked up.
“Get out.”
She covered her aching shoulder and looked at him incomprehensibly.
“You can’t do anything. Why are you staying here? Before I get angry, get out!”
“You!” Serena clenched her fists and considered the man’s words too harsh. But, after thinking about it, it was also true that she was not helpful all the time. The anger in her eyes vanished, and she slowly walked out of the bathroom while clutching her shoulder.
“Luca!” An indifferent voice burst through the door with a commanding aura that made Luca, who was hiding outside eavesdropping, tremble in the next second.
“Still not coming?”
Luca hurriedly rushed into the bathroom.
“Sir, how did you know I was outside?”
Unexpectedly, Cristian learned that he did not leave. And moreover, when he entered, he was also embarrassed to see Serena who was staring at him. He was hidden outside to spy them, but was discovered when Cristian called him. Cristian gave him a cold look, so Luca had to keep quiet immediately.
…
After getting out from the bathroom, Serena went to her bed and pulled out her cell phone. After browsing her social media for a while, she discovered that her ex-husband Francesco sent a photo of him holding a lovely woman, and the two were intimately linked to each other. And there were words on it: I will love you all my life.
Seeing this, Serena felt a dull ache in her heart.
In the two years’ marriage, he never touched her, and always used the excuse that he was too busy at work. Serena initially felt that she was already married with him anyway. Life still had to go on, and so these details did not matter so much to her. Two years passed in the blink of an eye. Suddenly Francis won the 5 million euros lottery, but she was not happy consequently, because she suddenly was asked for a divorce on the pretext that she had not fulfilled the obligations and duties as a wife.
She did not know what the obligations of a wife were. She woke up very early in every morning and cooked breakfast for him. She did all the household chores and she used all her salary to supplement the family income. Her style of dressing changed from a young woman to an frugal housewife.
For whom did she do all this?
In fact, Serena already learned that this was just an excuse for she had seen the woman in the picture long before. Francis was not at home that day and a pregnant woman came to her.
“I am pregnant and this is Francesco’s child. Serena, if you wanna make it simple, go away, or I’ll kick you out.”
Serena was stunned, not knowing how to react at all for she did not believe it at that time.
“Impossible! Francis has never cheated on me. Do you want to lie to me?”
“But he hasn’t have sexual relations with you either, has he? I told him not to touch you two years ago when you got married, so you’ll never get pregnant. Now I’ve had enough. I want to live with him. Go away.”
Serena was shocked. How did she know this?
Seeing that Serena did not believe her, the woman took out her cell phone to show her a video of her together with Francis. The video was naturally a scene of the two being together. The content of the scene. It was obvious. Therefore Serena did not finish watching and stepped back, telling the woman to go away.
The woman curled her lips victoriously, and then walked away. In a few days, Francis won the lottery, but decided to divorce with her.
When recalling this, Serena felt a strong nausea. Unable to sit any longer, Serena covered her mouth and ran to the bathroom but Cristian was inside. So she had to hurry to the bathroom on the second floor.
After vomiting for a long time, Serena returned to the room.
Cristian was still inside the bathroom. She got into the quilt and immediately fell asleep as soon as she felt the softness. Probably she was too tired after throwing up too much.
When Cristian finished washing and got out, what he saw was a small and shrunken figure under the comforter, revealing only a few strands of her long black hair.
Cristian withdrew his gaze immediately after a second.
“Towel.”
Luca handed him a dry towel and Cristian wiped his hair. His thin lips moved, “You can leave.”
When Cristian finished his words, Serena, probably feeling hot, suddenly kicked the quilt off, leaving her fair and straight legs all bare.
Serena had very fair and thin legs. The visual impact was quite great. Luca unconsciously turned his head when he noticed the movement, but Cristian opened his mouth before he could even see it.
“Aren’t you leaving?”
Hearing this, Luca suddenly turned around and touched his head. It seemed that Mr. Cristian became grimmer at that moment. However, Luca did not have the chance to think about anything else, nodded and quickly left the room.
Only after he was gone did Cristian’s eyes fell on Serena again.
Damn woman. She even pretended to be so innocent, as if she didn’t understand anything. And now she was asleep but still seductive.
The man emitted a cold snort, withdrew his gaze back and continued drying his hair.
The next day, after she woke up, Cristian was already out of the house. She rubbed her head and sat up. Did she sleep so well that she didn’t even notice when he left?
As Serena thought about getting up to wash her face, she suddenly could not see anything, causing her to quickly sit back down. Only after a while did the scene in front of her gradually become clear.
After she slept here for the whole night, the cold seemed to get worse.
Sitting for a few minutes, Serena got up again.
When she finished getting settled and went downstairs, she happened to meet his grandfather Alessandro.
“Aurora?”
“Mr. Alessandro…” Serena was inexplicably nervous when she saw him.
The elderly man’s eyes seemed sharp, as if he could sense people’s hearts. She feared that her identity would be easily exposed in front of him.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
“Didn’t you go to work with Cristian?”
Although the tone was very even, Serena still sensed a hint of reproach, and looked shyly at the elderly man, whispering, “I’m sorry, Mr. Alessandro. I wasn’t very well the last two days, so…”
“Are you sick?” The elderly man squinted sharply, “I’ll call the doctor to come and check on you.”
Serena’s expression immediately changed. Call the doctor to check on her? Would the matter of her pregnancy be discovered right away?
No, no!
