Her Second Marriage With Mr. Cristian

Time passed quickly. A week had already passed since the day Serena slapped Cristian. Serena also admitted in front of Alice that she had feelings for Cristian and wanted to accompany him in the future.

She gradually calmed down.

In the beginning, she probably was the one who thought too much and expected too much. And that was the reason why there were always conflicts between them. If she was able to be calmer, to face things more calmly, perhaps she and Cristian would be able to be a happy couple in the rest of time.

Serena finally figured it all out. Instead of bickering about everything, it was better to keep calm and try to be together with him peacefully. But Cristian was confused.

He was a very proud person who would never admit anything in front of Serena, plus he wasn’t probably sure how Serena felt. At first he felt that she was the victim of their marriage, but then little by little… something had changed.

It was hard to tell more, though.

He would like to see her go out of her mind with jealousy, but who expected that the next day she would be unexpectedly quiet and greet him after she woke up.

And then she just went to the bathroom as if nothing had happened. She worked, ate and went home. Sometimes when she was duty off, she would went to shopping mall to learn more about sales techniques.

Cristian had noticed her behaviors.

“Has she gone crazy?” asked Cristian suddenly.

Luca, who was following him, paused for a moment and didn’t understand the meaning of the question. Then, recovering himself, he asked in a low voice, “Are you by any chance talking about Mrs. Ferrari, Mr. Cristian?”

Annoyed, Cristian replied, “If not her, then who?”

“Eh…” mumbled Luca who was almost frightened.

Thinking back to the events of the past few days, Luca patted his head, “Mrs. Ferrari seems very normal, doesn’t she?”

She had a very quiet tone when speaking with Cristian everyday. Even if Cristian tried to provoke her, she did not get angry as in the past, but rather kept exemplary calm. So, Luca could not help but think that everything was fine.

If two people treated each other with respect and consideration, they would probably end up having feelings for each other in the future.

Yes, all was very normal.

Cristian’s gaze paused for a few moments. Yes, all was too normal. That was why it was strange.

“Normal?” asked Cristian doubtfully.

“Isn’t it?” replied Luca after a moment’s hesitation.

“… How stupid.” It just seemed useless to talk to him, so Cristian closed his eyes and didn’t take any more notice of him.

Luca thought about it for a while and asked, “Mr. Cristian, are you angry that Mrs. Ferrari doesn’t argue with you anymore?”Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Cristian remained silent.

Luca then grabbed his chin as if he was in contemplation, “After all, in the past she used to quarrel with you a lot, whereas lately she doesn’t contradict you anymore. Haven’t you gotten used to it yet?”

“Shut up,” said Cristian.

Luca looked more than a little bewildered, but since Cristian told him to shut up, he dared not go on with the talk. But still beset by doubts, he thought about whether he should go and talk to Mrs. Ferrari.

Taking advantage of the fact that Serena went to make herself some coffee in the pantry, Luca approached her inconspicuously and asked her how things were going.

“Mrs. Ferrari, lately… how are things going?”

“How?” asked Serena with a quiet expression as she spun her coffee.

“Mrs. Ferrari seems like a different person lately.”

Hearing these words, Serena stopped and smiled slightly, “And isn’t that good? Every day I can be calm and quiet. That sounds good to me.”

At least she wouldn’t be sad and angry about things of no importance.

“Calm and peaceful?”, Luca, who was looking at her, seemed to catch another moods in her that was anything else but “calm” and “peaceful”. However, not knowing if it was just his mistake, he asked without thinking, “But, Mrs. Ferrari, are you really calm and peaceful, or is it just superficial?”

“What are you implying, Luca?” asked Serena in turn.

Seeing Serena’s reaction, Luca gestured with his hand as if to explain himself, “No no, I just want to remind you that, Mr. Cristian… he treats you specially, and then I wish you two can be good, so…”

He had not yet finished speaking but Serena was already a little weirded out. She remembered that Luca was always very courteous to her, but he didn’t like her for he kept telling her not to ask too many questions.

“I still have a lot of things to do at work, and I also have to bring Cristian his coffee, so I’d better go.” Serena had no desire to pursue this topic with him, so she immediately left the pantry.

As soon as Serena left, Luca gripped his head tightly, distressed.

Could it be that he had said something wrong?

Luca did not like Serena in the past. However, then gradually, as he got to know her, he began to feel some pity for her. Her ex-husband was a philanderer, however, she decided to take care of their child, even sign a contract with Cristian.

Besides, Luca had noticed how she behaved in front of Cristian for a few days now.

He was now certain that she was not the kind of frivolous and venal woman whom everyone thought she was.

Everything that happened to her had certainly not been intended by her. But it was a matter of bad luck, or… she trusted the wrong people.

Sitting in front of the office window in his wheelchair, Cristian looked through the glass at the scenery below. But he didn’t watch any specific thing through the window.

Since Serena turned into a normal person, he in turn had changed as well. Every day he purposely tried to make troubles with her, but each time her reactions made him realize that it was a losing battle.

Knock Knock.

The door opened and Serena came in carrying coffee. Without looking around, Serena placed the coffee cup on the table and calmly said, “Mr. Cristian, your coffee is ready. If there is nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”

And finished speaking, she turned to leave.

“Stop.”

Serena then stopped her steps and turned to look at Cristian, “Mr. Cristian, do you need anything?”

“Come here.”

Serena’s eyes and eyebrows curved suspiciously, while she did not move at all. So, after a while, Serena asked again, “Mr. Cristian, do you have any other needs? Please tell me.”

“I told you to come here. What’s the need to waste any more words?” Cristian’s tone of voice was cold, and his gaze fixed on her in a threatening manner. Serena glanced at him. Cristian looked like a beast staring at her lunch. That look, lately… they lived in a peaceful life, however now… was he about to explode again?

In any case, Serena, having no other choice, could only slowly approach until she got in front of him. “Here I am, Mr. Cristian. What is it?”
