Her Second Marriage With Mr. Cristian

Cristian sneered, “My brother, you are worrying too much. The demotion was just to deceive the rest of the employee. Serena is my wife. How could I leave her there and let others hurt her?”

Having said that, Cristian walked over to Serena who was still holding the papers in her hand.

“Right, Serena?”

“Huh?” Serena had no time to react. With one arm, Cristian directly encircled her waist and then wrapped her in his arms. Serena’s body fell completely into Cristian’s arms.

Seeing the scene, Leonardo clenched his fists. And there was noticeable anger on his face.

“It seems that my wife is very enthusiastic today. Even took the initiative to hug me. So… I won’t let you down.”

Before Serena understood anything, Cristian grabbed her chin and kissed her.

At that moment, Serena was stunned. She forgot to even put up resistance.

He and Alice were at the restaurant before, and now he kissed her in front of his brother. What was he doing? This was neither feeling of love nor desire. It was just a kind of revenge! Just because Leonardo was here, then he was doing it on purpose.

Serena thought about it for a while. When she came to her senses and wanted to push him away, Cristian moved first and pulled her away.

Leonardo already left the office.

Serena slapped Cristian in the face.

“Asshole.”

A handprint appeared on Cristian’s face. His lips tightened, revealing his anger at that moment.

Serena’s anger did not subside. She wanted to slap him again but this time she was stopped by Cristian.

She tried to break free but could not. She said angrily, “What are you going to do? Are you using me as a means to get back at Leonardo?”

Cristian’s gaze darkened and said in a stinging tone, “You are the first woman who dares to hit me.”

“So what?” Serena bit her lip, “You can humiliate me and I can’t take revenge on you? Do you think you gave me a job transfer then I’ll be grateful to you? Cristian, it’s not like that! I would rather stay in that small department and do my work than return to this disgusting place!”

Having said that, Serena pushed Cristian away and ran off.

Cristian saw her red eye sockets, froze, and stood still, staring at Serena’s back until she disappeared. After a while, Cristian lowered his head.

Was she sad?

*

Serena was not a person without temperament. After being humiliated by Cristian like that, she grabbed her bag and left the company. Whether or not Cristian would deduct her salary or bonus. She did not want to stay there anymore.

She left and went to a café. When it was time of duty-off, she sent a message to Alice.

Alice hurried over and saw Serena who sat there for a long time, with several cups of coffee in front of her.

“Serena.” Alice ran in panting, walked over to Serena to sit across from her. Alice’s breathing calmed.

“Sit down.” said Serena with an indifferent expression.

Alice sat down nervously. When the waiter approached, Alice ordered a cup of coffee, then looked at Serena.

“Serena, you look sad. Are you angry with me?”

“Angry?” Serena looked up at her. Alice was dressed very well. It was different from the midday. She was wearing a pink dress that only highlighted her thin neck through its round collar.

Serena looked at her calmly and then lowered her eyes.

“What have I got to be angry about?”

“Serena, you don’t to believe the video Anna sent you, do you?”

Alice bit her lip, “Don’t believe her. She doesn’t like me from the first moment she saw me. She also said I want to seduce Mr. Cristian. I am your best friend. How can I do such a thing?”

Alice said a lot, but Serena remained silent.

“Serena, say something. Do you really believe what she said? We are best friends. If you don’t believe me, I can swear to you.”

Serena looked at Alice.

Waiting for two seconds, Alice then raised her head, “I swear to God. I really have no intention to seduce…”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“What are you looking for Cristian for?” Serena suddenly interrupted her. Alice tightened her lips, and her voice weakened, “Nothing in particular.”

“Didn’t you say it was for work? Like nothing in particular?” Serena’s tone was questioning. She really wanted to know what her best friend wanted to do.

“Serena, if you say that… it’s because you believed Anna’s words. You suspect me, don’t you?”

Serena took a deep breath, “Why do you think so? I’m just asking what did you and Cristian talk about. Is there any problem? We used to tell each other everything, and now I can’t even know what you talked about?”

“Serena, I…”

Serena stared at her. Alice’s eyes reddened. Immediately she wept. Serena was caught off guard.

“I thought you trust me no matter what happens. Serena, when I was in trouble, you were the one who got me out of trouble. I can hurt anyone but I will never hurt you. Maybe… my attitude towards Anna is not very kind. Maybe in front of others, I act arrogantly. But with you Serena, I always act for your good! Although I am getting closer to Cristian, but I am definitely not doing it because I don’t have intention of seducing him!”

“So… you admit that you are getting closer to Cristian?”

“Yes.” Alice said, “I admit that I am approaching Cristian on purpose, so what? He doesn’t treat you well at all. I don’t like him at all. I want to avenge for you. Besides, you and he are couple only in name. The baby you’re carrying…”

“Enough!” Serena interrupted her, “Don’t mention this matter again in the future!”

She was a bit agitated. Alice stopped crying and laughed, “Why can’t I mention? I’m just telling the truth. I asked my older brother to help you find that person because I hope you can find your happiness. But what about you? He is in front of you and you don’t even have the courage to acknowledge?”
