Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 1304-Have you seen me before?

She was coming here, probably because she wanted to eat noodles.

She couldn't panic; she had to stay calm before things became clear.

Anna washed her face, then quickly calmed down, took a deep breath and headed downstairs.

As she came downstairs she tried to play it cool, greeted Marcello as she always did when she came face to face with him, and then went to the kitchen.

Once in the kitchen, Anna cooked her noodles and thought back to the way Marcello had met her earlier-he didn't seem to have a different look in his eyes or a different expression, so he didn't know it was her yet, did he?

Fortunately, if he had known, he would have said something to Matteo.

There was no telling whether she was pregnant or not, so he had had to take a pregnancy test, and it would have been embarrassing if the whole thing had gone wrong.

So before she knew for sure, Anna had decided that she would be the only one who would know and that she would not take the same risk as she did today when she went to the pharmacy. Marcello stayed in the room upstairs, taking a playful look at the bag next to him with a smirk on his face.

He knew his best friend had fallen for it this time, he just didn't expect the two to develop so quickly, and he wondered what his longtime steady friend would be like when he couldn't hold back. And what would it be like if he knew he was going to be a father?

If he could, Marcello would like to take the bag of pregnancy tests to Matteo and tease him a little more, just to see him change color.

Unfortunately, they had been taken by Anna, and for a girl, it was best to keep her secret for now.

Anna entered the elegant room with the noodles, coughed slightly to hide her weakness, and then placed the noodles in front of Marcello.

"Marcello."

Marcello shot her a look, and the girl's eyes flickered, clearly afraid to look him in the eye.

Was he that frightening? Earlier he had obviously asked her to acknowledge himself as her older brother, and now she was really afraid to look him straight in the eye?

"Well, have a seat."

Anna took a seat opposite Marcello, probably because she was weak, so she was breathing very, very shallowly, as if trying to lower her presence.

Marcello, on the other hand, calmly took his fork and ate slowly and deliberately in front of Anna, who normally might have spoken to him, but today there was nothing to say. "What's wrong?" Marcello suddenly looked up at her.

"Huh?" Anna looked into his eyes as if in shock, "Marcello, what is it?"

"Shouldn't I ask you?" Marcello looked at her amused, "So quiet today, nothing to talk about with me?"

"Ah no." Anna waved her hands in denial, "I was just thinking about something, it's not like I'm not talking to Marcello."

"Oh?" Marcello raised an eyebrow, "What were you thinking about? Tell me about it?"

"That's no good, big brother you're eating now, I'll disturb."

"Anyway I'm bored now, you go talk about it."

Marcello lowered his gaze and resumed eating his noodles, but Anna was embarrassed, "No, I was just thinking about hiring an extra person for the store."

A staff member?

"Yes? Are you short-staffed now? Are you retiring?"

Is he paving the way for a future pregnancy?

When Anna heard him ask if she was ready to step aside, her sweat broke out, and she piped up, "No, no, it's just that...... I think my parents are kind of busy, so I'm thinking of recruiting an extra person." "Well, aunts and uncles are not young, they shouldn't be so busy, recruiting a few extra people is good enough, do you have a candidate? Do you need big brother to help you with the features?" "No, there is no hurry, take your time and recruit until you replace the right person."

"Good."

After some silence, Anna decided that she couldn't stay here any longer, so she found an excuse to leave.

"Brother, I'm kind of busy downstairs, so I can't eat spaghetti with you today, okay?"

"Well, I saw it when I came in, business is good, so go downstairs and get busy."

"Sorry big brother, I'll keep you company next time!" With that, Anna stood up quickly, almost as if she was about to run away, but after she had turned around and had just taken two steps outside, Marcello suddenly called out to her.

"Sister."

"Huh?"

Anna turned and looked at Marcello with an incomprehensible expression.

"I have something for you, I forgot to give you your things."

Marcello smiled slightly as he positioned himself to carry a bag next to him and set it on the table, Anna was a little confused at first, "My things?"

"Well, yours."

Anna reached over and took the bag with a confused expression on her face, opening it right in front of Marcello because she really hadn't thought about it at that moment.

The bag turned out to be open and once he got a good look at what was inside, Anna paled.

"This, this......"

What!!!

Anna's eyes widened in disbelief, because the contents of the bag were actually the pregnancy test she had just bought at the pharmacy, and it had all been delivered in a bag at this moment. How could Marcello have brought them to her? He couldn't...... recognize her when she was in the pharmacy?

"What?" Marcello looked at her shocked expression and found it funny, "Isn't that your thing?"

Anna reacted and her hand unconsciously let go of the bag, her lips twisted in embarrassment, "Marcello are you kidding, how could these...... things be mine?"

"It's not yours? But it's the one you took when you were in the pharmacy just now."

Hearing this, the smile on Anna's lips could no longer be maintained, she gave Marcello a serious look, the other party had a smile in the back of his eyes and the corner of his lips, he was obviously teasing her!

Thinking of this, Anna asked with some anger, "Marcello, did you see that it was me?"

Marcello laughed slightly and said nothing.

Looking at his face, Anna thought that he was right, he had recognized her, so he had bought the medicines, and had come to her store to bring them to her.

"Marcello, how can you do this? You!"

Seeing that Anna was about to lose her temper, Marcello hastened to rectify the situation, "All right, don't blame big brother, big brother also came to buy things and suddenly ran into you, and he saw that you had forgotten your things, so he brought them to you, with no other intention."

"If you had nothing else in mind, then why didn't you say so when you came and had to wait until now?"

Marcello looked helplessly, "I wanted to tease you. I didn't expect you to be angry,well my sister don't be angry with me, I brought you everything and I paid."

It was better not to talk about it, but Anna felt even more ashamed when she did.
