Virginity in second marriages by Angela

That stern questioning made Alice's eyes redden.

"I'm sorry. I just wanted to push the wheelchair. I didn't want to touch you, Cristian. You're hurting me. Let me go," said Alice who burst into tears, then weakly withdrawing her hand. Cristian sneered and let go.

Alice fell slightly to the side and leaned against the wall as if she had no bones. She rubbed her wrist, feeling a desperation inside her.

At first she thought Cristian had feelings for her. As long as she used other methods, he would fall in love with her.

She did not expect him to be so rude.

But... the more he was rude to her, the more Alice was interested in the cold, overbearing man.

She wanted his love more and more. If she was loved by him, she would be the happiest woman in the world.

But if she wanted his love, she would have to act by any kind of means.

Alice leaned back against the wall and closed her eyes.

Serena, I can only feel sorry for you.

Anyway, Cristian didn't like you, so.... leave it to me.

Thinking about this, Alice's gaze changed when she opened her eyes again. She stood up again. her voice was as faint as the buzzing of a mosquito.

"Sorry, Cristian, I didn't mean to ... since you hate me so much, then ... I'll leave."

Alice said involuntarily, "It's all my fault. It's not good to remember... I shouldn't remind you of that rainy night.... Do I look like a clown now?"

At first she wanted to leave, and Cristian didn't even pay her any attention, but after hearing her whisper, Cristian's cold gaze turned into a storm that engulfed her. "Stop."

Alice immediately stopped in her place like a frightened bird and looked at him in astonishment.

"What did you just said?"

Alice put her hand over her mouth and looked at him fearfully, "Nothing, I didn't say anything. You heard me wrong!"

Then she turned and ran.

"Damn it, come back!" Cristian called out to her, but Alice had achieved her goal. Of course, she did not repeat what she had said so she did not stop. She wanted to give him time to figure it out for himself. Soon Alice disappeared around the corner.

Serena waited for a long time. The way into the garden was complicated. Serena was worried that if Alice got lost. She waited for another two minutes, but still did not see her.

She walked down the road from which they had come. She met Alice who was walking along the road. Alice almost fell on her because she was walking fast. Fortunately, they both managed to stop first. "What happened? You're in such a hurry. What's the matter?" Serena asked, seeing Alice's reddened eyes.

Alice wiped her eyes.

"But...why are you crying?" Serena asked suspiciously.

She did not know why...but suddenly she had a bad feeling.

Alice turned her back and wiped her tears, "It's okay. It's okay."

"What? Did I cry?" Alice smiled and rubbed her face vigorously, "No, I didn't cry. Maybe it's just water because just now I washed my face."

Serena: "..."

"Aren't you lying to me?"

"Hey, why would I lie to you. It's true that I didn't cry!"

Alice took her hand and quickly changed the subject, "Let's go take a look over there."

Although Serena was full of doubts, Alice did not want to talk about it. Serena could not help her. There was nothing wrong with those emotions, so she preferred not to think about it.

The two went for a walk, and when they returned, Alessandro returned as well. After seeing Alice, he was immensely happy because she brought so much joy to the Ferrari family, and he asked her if there was a chance to meet Matteo.

Alice said that her brother was very busy and that she would introduce her brother to him next time if she had the chance.

Alessandro agreed and invited Alice to stay for lunch.

On the one hand, Serena was a little worried. In fact, she knew Alessandro's thoughts well. He always wished that Alice could have a relationship with Leonardo. After everyone left, Serena dragged Alice to a corner.

"If Alessandro asked you to marry Leonardo, will you agree?"

Hearing that speech, Alice looked at her with surprise, "How is that possible?"

After thinking about it, she continued talking.

"Serena, although I won't interfere with your decisions anymore, it doesn't mean I will stay with him. After all, he is the father of the child you are carrying. I cannot stay with him."

Serena curled her lips, "That might be a bit problematic. Alessandro would like you to get married to Leonardo. Don't you see that?"

"Really? I thought he just wants to see my brother. That's why he is so enthusiastic."

"Are you stupid? With the reputation the Giordano family has in North City, it's obvious that Alessandro wants you to marry his grandson." "So..." Alice hesitated and lowered her head, "Then I will be more careful next time. I'm sure it has nothing to do with Leonardo anyway."

Serena ignored her words. Alice said only that she wanted nothing to do with Leonardo, but she did not say that she wanted nothing to do with Cristian.

At noon, when everyone was at the table, Cristian's face was as cold as ice. As soon as he appeared, his cold breath on the front door almost froze everything around him. Maids did not dare to approach him. Serena could not help but look at him.

She noticed something wrong with his breathing in the morning. Now it had even gotten worse.

What had happened?

"Alice, if you have time in the future, you should visit me more often." Alessandro smiled and gently got her some shrimps. Alice smiled flatteringly, "Thank you. I will."

Seeing this scene, Serena did not pay much attention to it, however, she already knew the elderly man did not like her.

Leonardo and Cristian were both silent. Only Alessandro and Alice were talking from time to time. The meal was very awkward. Finally, Alessandro suddenly said, "Aurora, help put the dishes back." Serena paused for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

Then she stood up and helped the maids rearrange the dishes. Alice saw her and said, "I'll help too."

"No, Alice, come with me. I have something to tell you."

"This..."

Serena smiled at Alice, "I will come back to you later."

After they left one after another, Serena helped rearrange the dishes in the kitchen.
