Virginity in second marriages by Angela

Chapter 216: Maybe it feels so bitter to have feelings for him



"Is there any problem if I come with you?" Cristian looked at her.

Faced with the question, how dared Serena to say that there was any problem? She was simply surprised that he really wanted to come with them. She thought he would force her to postpone her date with Anna and go home with him. She did not expect him to be so kind. However it was really a nice surprise.

After that, Serena and Cristian were both silent the whole way. Surreptitiously, Anna glanced back and found that Cristian's face remained expressionless and his eyes were as cold as ice, while Serena, who was seated not far away and showed no extra expression just like him. If not for the fact that she knew the two were couple, she would think that they did not know each other. It was really awkward. It seemed that Serena was right when she said that there was no relationship between her and the man, but....

Anna's gaze fell on Serena again. According to what Serena said, she fell in love. It would be so bitter for her to have feelings for a man who never had expression on his face. Suddenly she began to feel sorry for her friend.

The atmosphere in the car became extremely awkward and quiet. So, when Anna saw that they were almost at their destination, she hastened to say, "Just pull over there. Let's go in that way."

Luca listened to her directions and stopped at the intersection. Anna smiled and thanked him, then unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car to wait for her friend.

Serena also tried to get up when she heard Cristian say, "Push my wheelchair."

Serena: "???"

He looked at her, "I will go with you."

Serena stood in disbelief for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Do you want to go shopping with us?"

"...Didn't I just say that?" He replied in a disgruntled tone.

"Fine" Following his orders, Serena started pushing the wheelchair.

Seeing this scene, Luca immediately understood Cristian's intention, just as he thought before. Luca secretly winked at Serena, then lowered the car window and said to Cristian, "Sir I'm going to find a parking lot and I'll join you later." After Cristian gave him a nod of affirmation, Luca drove away.

Anna approached Serena with small steps, took courage and said, "Mr. Cristian, accompanying ladies to shopping could be a bit boring. Are you sure you really want to come with us?"

"Boring?" He looked at her out of the corner of his eye and suddenly remembered something, "Are you that woman who was there at the anniversary event?"

Hearing Cristian's words that he remembered her, Anna was surprised and said, "Do you still remember me? But you don't need to thank me specifically. What I had done is just my duty. By the way, I am Anna Galli, an employee of the finance department. The head of the department is my father."

Cristian sneered, "Didn't you say there was no need for me to thank you? Then why did you state who you are?" What was she thinking? When did he say he wanted to thank her?

Anna immediately became embarrassed, as Serena was about to open her mouth to help friend, she heard the man saying,"I will give you a pay raise next month." When Anna heard this, she almost jumped up in excitement. But being in the mall, she finally restrained herself, "Thank you, Mr. Cristian! You are the best! I'm Anna Galli from the finance department. Don't get my name wrong!" Serena: "Didn't you say...there is no need to thank her specifically?"

Anna tightened her lips, "Yes, there is no need, but Mr. Cristian is president of the company. For him, to raise the salary for an employee is so easy. It doesn't mean to thank me specifically. Am I right Mr. Cristian?"

Serena was stunned. She didn't know Anna would said those things. Why hadn't she noticed earlier?

Cristian didn't want to pay attention to Anna, but when he turned his gaze, he saw the expression on Serena's face and suddenly found it quite interesting. Signs of interest appeared in her eyes. He replied, "Yes, you are right."

Serena was speechless for a while, then pushed him into the mall.

Luca reached him with quick steps. Anna saw Luca running towards him, and said, "Assistant Russo is here. I'm going to keep him company," leaving Serena and Cristian alone.

Actually Serena was here today just to keep Anna company. Now that Anna was together with Luca, suddenly she didn't know where to go. She could only walk pushing Cristian aimlessly, so she asked him, "Do you have somewhere to go?"

"Huh?" He raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you the ones who want to go shopping?"

Serena explained, "It's Anna who wants to go shopping."

"You are also a woman. Isn't shopping a woman's native ability? Take whatever you want. Since I am here, I can buy you anything you like." Hearing these words, Serena's heart turned bitter for a few moments, but in her face she showed none, "No need. I have nothing I need."

She really didn't need anything. In fact he had already prepared her a lot of clothes and jewelry, so she really didn't know what to buy.

He asked, "Do you really have nothing to buy? Or did you just say that because you don't want to spend money in front of me. For fear that I will think of you as a woman who only loves money?" Serena burst out a small laugh, "Haven't you always seen me like this?"

Cristian paused for a moment and asked in a disgruntled tone, "Can't it be that my opinion changes with time? Or in your mind my image is already fixed like that?"

"This question should be asked by me."

As the two were discussing, Anna suddenly appeared, "Serena, Mr. Cristian, come and see."

Serena unconsciously looked back and saw Anna enter a jewelry store, so she pushed him and followed her into the store.

Anna was still a little afraid of Cristian before. But since he promised her that he would raise her salary, his cold eyes became so kind to her and she got used to the atmosphere around him. Now without any concern, she called her friend to choose jewelry for her.

Serena was a little uncomfortable with the wheel chair, but Anna kept calling her, so she could not help but go to her friend's side.

"Are these earrings beautiful?" Anna asked.

Serena followed her finger and saw a pair of earrings made of pink diamonds that sparkled under the light with an adorable glow. Although she had no intention of shopping, she looked at these earrings, which she liked deep in her heart, nodded, "They are pretty." The pink color matched Anna's style perfectly.

"Then try them on!" Anna had the clerk take the earrings and hand them forward to her.
