Chapter 14: Who is he looking for?
“No, no, no need, Alessandro. I just have a cold. I’ll go to the pharmacy to get some medicine later.” Serena stopped him in time.
The elderly man stared at her with sly eyes. And Serena, who was fearful, bit her lower lip unconsciously.
“Your nasal sounds are so heavy. How can you take the medicine by yourself?” Unexpectedly, Alessandro let out a soft sigh, giving her a nod to indicate she should come closer.
Serena advanced a few steps and then cautiously stopped.
“Remember to take your medicines. If you feel better, go to the company to find Cristian.”
Serena nodded, “Yes, Mr. Alessandro.”
“Okay.” The old man nodded contentedly, “Go ahead.”
After leaving the house, Serena called Alice, who quickly arrived in twenty minutes. Getting into the car, Alice immediately asked, “Have you made up your mind? Do you want to have an abortion?”
Serena gave no answer and silently fastened her seat belt.
“Why don’t you speak?”
Alice turned her head and looked at her. Seeing that she sat there without expression, she frowned, “What’s going on? Didn’t you think about it last night? Don’t tell me you want to keep this baby!”
Hearing this, Serena covered her abdomen, “But this is a life. Isn’t it too cruel to kill it directly?”
“Ah, Serena, are you kidding? Wasn’t it cruel when your parents asked you to marry a disabled person instead of Aurora? Wasn’t it cruel when your ex-husband kicked you out of the house while he had another woman? The Ferrari family will not tolerate this child. If you return home, will your parents still want you?”
Alice’s words worked as an outstanding cue, and Serena suddenly raised her head and looked ahead.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“Listen to me. Get rid of the child, now that the Ferrari family is your only support. Besides, this child is of unknown origin. Who knows what the baby will be like in the future?”
With those words, Alice made the decision directly in Serena’s place.
“I am your friend, but my words stop here. Of the rest, you have to think for yourself.”
Serena remembered what Cristian told her last night, that he would give her three days, but in fact, what he said could also be false. So… did she have to have an abortion? If she wanted to be in the Ferrari family, she really should do that. If she was kicked out from the Ferraris, she would not even be able to return to her own home.
Thinking of this, Serena sadly closed her eyes, “Let’s go.”
“Have you made up your mind? Then I’ll take you to the hospital.” Alice changed her destination and said, “If you tell me that the daddy of this child is someone you love, surely I would not object to you keeping it. But since it’s from a stranger, you don’t know whether it’s a blessing or a curse. The best way is to get rid of it.”
Subsequently, the two remained speechless all the way to the hospital.
Serena’s mood remained very depressed after taking the number and standing in line, while Alice accompanied her the whole time and kept telling her comforting words.
When it was finally her turn, the doctor frowned after seeing her.
“Look, according to the examination results, your uterine wall is extremely thin. An abortion will cause perforation and bleeding. We don’t recommend that you have an abortion.”
Hearing this, Serena frowned, and so did Alice who was totally surprised by these words, “You can’t have an abortion?”
“It is not recommended” The doctor sighed slightly, “Think about it. Bleeding is no small matter. Think better about it and come back on another day.”
After they left the hospital, Alice looked very nervous, “You can’t have an abortion. Oh my God, how can the fact be so troublesome!”
“I don’t know either.”
“I’ll drive you home first.”
Serena nodded, but then shook her head again.
“No, I have to go to the company. Take me to the company.”
Alice said nothing. She listened to her and took her to the company. But when she saw the building of Ferrari family group, Alice couldn’t help but sigh, “I thought my family was rich enough. The Ferraris are beyond my imagination.”
“Alice, thank you for today, but I have to go.”
Alice said goodbye to her, “You go ahead. I will try to contact a doctor for you.”
Last time Serena was brought up by the vice president, so the receptionists remained very impressed. So this time she had no problem entering the company.
She boarded the elevator very smoothly and arrived at the president’s office which was located on the top floor of the building.
She advanced gently, but found that the office door was not closed today. As soon as she decided to enter, she heard a voice, “The last time I asked you to find her, you brought me that woman there, and this time you brought me a woman who is already a mother. Luca, am I treating you too well, or are you doing things mindlessly now?” Cristian sat in front of the desk and his slender fingers tapped lightly on it, with frightening breath filling his whole body.
Luca stood in front of him and was scolded. Head down, Luca was like an aggrieved puppy.
Seeing this scene, Serena hid behind the door. Cristian was angry right now so she could get into the trouble as well. She’d better come later.
“Sir, I didn’t do it on purpose, but the information you gave me is really limited. I don’t want to lose any possible targets.” Luca also felt miserable and desperate. He followed Cristian for a long time, but he usually only dealt with work. Even if the issues were problematic, he can still solve them quickly. But the task now was to find a woman. A woman unknown.
It was not so easy to go to a place like hospital to find a pregnant woman.
“Limited information? Don’t you know how to gather information yourself?” Cristian sneered. His sharp eyes darkened and the act of pounding the desk stopped, “Or, are you blaming me?”
The light but cold tone suddenly made Luca’s back straighten, and he immediately shook his head in denial.
“No! Sir, I will arrange further inspections next times, and I will personally interrogate them before I bring them to you.”
“Interrogate?”
“Don’t worry, if it is the woman you’re looking for, I certainly wouldn’t harm her.”
“Go out.” Cristian got a satisfactory answer, and pulled his tie to his chest impatiently, ordering him out.
Luca eagerly looked forward to leaving. He got so cold in this office that he couldn’t stay any longer.
“Yes!”
Luca closed the office door after he left, but turned around and saw Serena who was standing by the wall.
The two looked at each other before Serena opened her mouth to speak. Luca did not leave her the opportunity and dragged her to the corner.
“Do you want to die? Eavesdrop on our conversation?”
Hearing this, Serena shook her head, “I happened to come here, but, who are you looking for?”
Human being was always curious.
Not to say that Serena was also Cristian’s wife, who instinctively should have curiosity about her “husband”.
Luca squinted his eyes, “Miss Serena, I advise you not to ask what you shouldn’t ask. You have only replaced your sister, which means you could not be considered the real wife of him. If you ask too much, perhaps soon the title of Mrs. Ferrari will no longer have anything to do with you.”
