Virginity in second marriages by Angela

Chapter 239: I promise.



If not for the pair of pink earrings found the day before in Cristian's pocket, Serena might have wondered who might have bought them, but at that moment...She already knew that pair of earrings were from

Cristian.

Anna, who had a guilty conscience, blushed and at that moment asked:

"Guess!" Anna thought she did not know and pushed her hard, wanting her to guess.

Serena did not guess, she looked down and said in a low voice, "How would I know?"

"Hihi, so you want to know?" Anna asked as she approached.

Serena: "... "Seeing her bring her small face closer to his eyes, almost clashing their noses, he could do nothing but turn away and shake his head, "I don't want to know, don't tell me."

Anna: "...Why inexplicably do you not want to know? Or... "Anna suddenly realized it, opened her eyes wide: "Could it be that you have already received them?"

"I haven't received them!" Serena answered quickly. In fact, she was sure that Cristian had not bought the pair of earrings as a gift for her.

But there was a feeling inside her and she wanted to tell him.

After all, she liked the pair of earrings very much. If Cristian had not bought them to give to her, why had he bought them again? And why without telling her?

After denying it, Serena realized that she had revealed something. She bit her lip and looked at Anna embarrassed. Anna immediately grabbed her by the shoulders, "So you've known for a long time. I was going to tell you as a surprise."

Serena nodded and blushed.

"I found out by accident, but...I'm not sure if your pair of earrings was given to me."

"How is that possible? If he didn't give them to you? Who could he give them to?"

"Right, I don't know who he could give them to."

"Don't even think about it, you are his wife, and then... You even wore them in his sight that day and he didn't want to buy them from you at that time? But you had left suddenly, though. So he didn't buy them fo you but after going back and thinking about it, he bought them while you didn't know whether to go back. Obviously someone took them from you. Serena, you said that you don't feel anything for each other but I see that Cristian is very kind to you!"

Hearing this, Serena's heart thudded and she could not help but look at Anna.

"Is he kind to me?"

"As an outsider I see things more clearly than you, he looks at you like my father looks at my mother!"

Serena: "...What is that supposed to mean?"

"My father is very good to my mother and they have been together for many years. So, you have to be optimistic about Cristian, a gentleman like him will absolutely not be seduced by other people." Hearing this, Serena could not help but laugh, "You."

The two talked for a while, any time Serena paid attention to the time and noticing that almost half an hour had passed, she took her leave of Anna and went to find Cristian.

No one knew that she had just left Anna's office when she saw Luca pushing Cristian in the wheelchair in front of her.

The eyes of the two met, Cristian's dark eyes staring at her with a look of disappointment.

"What took you so long?"

Serena had to quicken her pace and move forward, she turned to him, "Why did you come all of a sudden?

Cristian frowned impatiently, "It's been half an hour."

Hearing this, Serena stood looking at him for a while and murmured, "It has just been half an hour."

"Serena, you don't seem to take my words seriously."

Said Cristian looked at Anna, she straightened her back as if she was standing in front of her superior. She nodded to Cristian, approached slowly and said, "Go slowly, Cristian."

The other employees of the finance department followed her with curious eyes, and Serena had to push Cristian to escort him out of the place. After entering the elevator, she said, "I was about to go upstairs to look for you when you came here."

Cristian's body was very cold and the atmosphere in the elevator. The floor of the elevator suddenly lowered. The elevator went up one floor at a time, Serena heard Cristian's cold voice continue, "I will let Luca take you to the hospital, I still have a meeting."

Such manner made Serena feel a little more heartened, she put her lips together and said, "All right, okay... Today I..."

"After you take your medicine in the hospital, go home and rest, you hear?" He said again.

Serena nodded obediently.

Looking at Serena's reflection on the wall, Cristian noticed the warm color of the space between her eyebrows and eyes. She seemed particularly gentle today, especially in her head bowing...Almost causing him to lose control.

Inexplicably, Cristian became irritable again, reached out to fix the tie on his suit, gritted his teeth. But not knowing what to say, he could only remain silent.

After that, Cristian returned to continue his meeting, and Luca accompanied Serena to the hospital.

When they picked up the car downstairs, Serena could not help but ask, "Had Cristian left the conference room on purpose?"

Although this question was awkward, Serena still wanted to ask it.

Luca froze for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, arrived at the time decided by you and Mr. Ferrari, you did not show up so we went down to the elevator to look for you."

This made her feel at ease; she lowered her gaze and could not help but laugh.

Luca saw the smile on Serena's face through the rearview mirror, but it did not convey warmth. On the contrary, he felt the chill penetrate him. He looked at Serena in the rearview mirror with a wary gaze and said, "Miss Gallo..."

Hearing this, Serena lifted her head and suddenly her gaze met two clear eyes.

"What's going on?"

Although those eyes were cold, there was no trace of malice; it was as if they had gathered all the spiritual energy of this world.

How could Serena allow people to hurt him?

Luca wanted to speak but stopped himself, the words that had come down his throat just now had stopped between his lips.

"Luca, do you have something to tell me?" Seeing him hesitate, Serena obviously had something to say, but after waiting a long time, she said nothing so she had to ask him.

When she asked him, Luca's gaze drifted away thinking of a certain woman, he felt that if she did not tell him everything, it would be unfair to Serena.

But...he was working on Cristian's behalf.

He could not help but obey Cristian's orders.

"No, nothing," Luca said, shaking his head. Finally he decided not to say anything.

The look in Serena's eyes became even stranger. When she looked at him, he seemed to want to tell her many things with his expressions and his gaze. He wanted to tell her something, but why did he say nothing to her?

"Did...nothing happen?

"Miss Gallo, it's nothing, it's your problem." Luca awkwardly touched his forehead, "Don't take it seriously, I will take you to the hospital."

Since he refused to speak, Serena couldn't force him, of course.

It's just that...she was curious, what was Luca hiding from her?
