Chapter 215: I have no feeling for him
As soon as Serena finished saying, the smile on Anna’s face froze and she looked at her awkwardly, “So… you mean you’re not here to make up with me? Then my gift…”
“I don’t know. If I don’t come here, maybe I won’t know about everything you have done. I’m sorry…”
Anna stood there without saying anything. Suddenly her eyes also turned red. She forcefully wiped away the tears streaming from her eyes and then asked with a bitter smile, “Do you think I’m particularly stupid? You think I’m the kind of people who only say bad things about others behind their backs, right? When I just met you, I treated you badly and even had an arrogant attitude, but then I realized that I misunderstood you. So I tried to make up for it by considering you as my best friend. Are you now confirming to me that everything I did was useless?”
“Of course not!” Serena shook her head to deny what she had said, “You were very kind to me. As for what happened, it was me who was too mean. Let’s reconcile.”
Anna did not answer immediately. Her eyes fixed on Serena.
“Do you agree?” Seeing Anna in silence, Serena requested her, then lowered her eyes, “Alright, if you really don’t want to then…”
“What the heck? Finally I am the one who has suffered the most in this matter. You said you want to make peace with me, but you didn’t even say a sweet word to me. You had only asked me once. I don’t accept your apology, and you already want to leave? Do you really want to make up with me or not?”
Serena stopped with her footsteps and turned to look at her. Anna pursed her lips, and her red eyes were like rabbit’s, “You have to buy me lunch.”
Serena nodded, “Ok, ok.”
“Then after work you have to go shopping with me to make up for these days that you weren’t there.”
“Okay”
…
After Serena promised her several things, Anna finally smiled.
Serena was helpless in front of her. The young girl was so simple and her requests were like those of a child asking an adult. So much she had the heart of a child, without malice. In the future, Anna can say whatever she wanted and Serena can act as if she had not heard those bad words.
After the two became friends again, they started to have lunch together in the cafeteria. Anna never changed and liked to gossip so much. Here she began to ask about the relationship between Serena and Cristian: “How are you with Cristian? That woman’s appearance hasn’t impacted your relationship, right?”
As Serena spooned the soup into her bowl, she thought for a moment and then suddenly raised her head and asked, “Do you really care that much about the affairs between Cristian and me?”
Anna nodded vigorously, “Of course! It is my duty to care about my best friend’s marriage.”
“Well, now I tell you there is no relationship between Cristian and me. Do you believe me?”
Getting this answer, Anna looked at her for a long time as she blinked her big watery eyes, “Then why did you get married to him? I thought you like him so much that you married him even though he is a cripple.” Hearing the word “cripple”, Serena unconsciously frowned and corrected her, “You must not say the word ‘cripple’ so casually.”
Anna froze for a moment and tightened her lips, “Didn’t you say you don’t like him? Then why do you defend for him?” She cast a glance at her suspiciously, “Isn’t it that… he doesn’t like you and you like him?”
This was the truth. Serena remained silent, did not defend herself or say anything else. She just looked at her with calm eyes. Anna instantly understood but at the same time, and was petrified, “Is that really so? You like Mr. Cristian but he doesn’t like you?”
“Keep your voice down,” Serena reminded her that they were at the company’s cafeteria.
“Then if he doesn’t like you, what are you going to do? If he doesn’t like you, then aren’t you in an even more dangerous situation? Heck, then there’s still Alice in the way” Anna said this and lowered her voice.
“Feelings are not something someone can control. Then the relationship between Cristian and I is very complicated. In short, don’t meddle in this matter anymore.”
“Alright, I will do as you wish.”
When all the work was finished, Serena went home together with Anna, because she had promised her that she would go shopping with her. So she forgot about Cristian completely. As the two walked to the bus stop, a car stopped in front of them. After the car window rolled down, they saw Cristian.
Anna saw him with surprise. Since she and Serena became friends, many unreal things happened around her: the other day she met Mr. Leonardo at the mall and he offered to drive her home; then at the anniversary event, she saw with her own eyes that Serena was taken away by Mr. Cristian, and now she saw him again with Serean.
“Didn’t I tell you to wait for me after work?” His voice was emotionless. Only now did Serena remember what Cristian had told her at his office. She explained in a low voice, “I forgot…”
As soon as she uttered these words, the atmosphere around him became even colder: “Forgot?”
Serena took a step back, while Anna was hidden directly behind her and watched the man fearfully. By comparison, Serena seemed quite calm in front of Cristian. At least she was not as frightened as Anna. She took a deep breath and replied, “I promised to take Anna shopping, if not… will you go home alone for today?”
Cristian said nothing, just looked at her with a cold gaze.
Anna, who was hidden behind Serena, asked in a low voice, “If not, will you go hime with him. Let’s go shopping next time?”
Serena wrinkled her eyebrows. She had promised she would accompany Anna.
Cristian suddenly asked, “Where are you going?”
“Huh?”
“Get in the car. I’ll drive you there.”
Anna opened her eyes wide in surprise, “Accompany us shopping?” She clutched Serena’s shirt, “Is this true?”
Serena first thought she had misheard what he said, but not expecting Anna to think as she did. She replied, “I don’t think so…”
Luca got straight down from the driver’s seat and opened the door for them, “Mrs. Serena, please have a seat.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
While Serena was still standing stunned, Anna had already pushed her into the car. Anna thanked Cristian with a smile and got into the front passenger seat. Surreptitiously, Luca nodded to Anna. Anna was really a good woman, leaving all the spaceto Mr. Cristian and Ms. Serena. She was a hundred times better than that Alice.
Serena gave Cristian a slightly embarrassed look, and asked, “Are you… coming with us?”
