Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 26: What are you expecting?

How come?

Cristian treated her so coldly and indifferently before. Why did he seem so kind and gentle now? Was she dreaming? Or?

"Miss Serena, please forgive me! Actually I didn't do it on purpose. You know that too!" Seeing that Cristian asked Serena's opinion, she realized that Serena was the person who should make the decision. Therefore, she walked over, hugged her legs and cried.

Serena turned and looked at her.

The employee cried out loudly and begged, "I don't earn much working here and I have a child. Miss Serena, please forgive me!"

Her situation seemed similar to that of herself, who did not earn much and could not save money after paying for the household expenses.

Serena thought about it and helped her get up, "Get up first."

The clerk wiped her tears and did not want to get up.

"Get up first. I'm responsible for it too. It's not all your fault."

"Really? Miss Serena, then I..."

Serena pulled her up and whispered, "I know it's not easy to work here and you didn't do it on purpose..." Saying this, Serena unconsciously looked at Cristian. It was true that Luca told her that this mall was in her name, but after all, it belonged to Cristian.

Serena then wanted to ask his opinion.

Cristian's eyes were as cold as his dark suit.

"You decide it."

Serena was surprised and then whispered, "Let's end here this time. Don't worry."

Having said that, Serena looked again at Cristian, who squinted his eyes having no expression on his face. Should he agree to her decision?

"Miss Serena, you are truly generous. I thank you on behalf of my whole family!"

The saleswoman wept with emotion and would almost embrace Serena by calling her a goddess.

Serena felt slightly embarrassed since it was the first time she was complimented in this way, "You're welcome. You can continue your work," smiled Serena awkwardly

"All right, then I'll go arrange the clothes."

As soon as the clerk left, a cold voice resounded.

"Is that man's baby worth protecting?"

At first Serena remained still and could not react with what he said.

Cristian believed that the child was Francesco's.

Of course, except for herself, if others learned that she was pregnant, they would all think it was the child of her ex-husband, Francesco. It was indeed normal to become pregnant after two years of marriage. No one would have thought that the child was from a stranger.

Thinking about this, Serena's lips moved, but she could not say anything.

What could she explain? That the child would not be Francesco's? Whose would it be? The explanation would make her more ashamed.

"Stupid!" Cristian's tone rose slightly and he raised a sarcastic smile.

Afterwards, he turned his wheelchair to leave. Serena reacted when Luca followed him to push him. She wanted to follow them, but replaceing herself still in this dress that she had to go change. When she came out from the fitting room, the clerk gave her another dress with a flashy color and said, "Miss Serena, are you going to attend a banquet? This dress will suit you very well."

"But I..." Serena looked toward the door where there was no one. Cristian left her alone?

"Don't worry. Mr. Cristian treats you so well. He should be outside waiting for you. Put on the dress first."

Persuaded by the clerk, Serena went to change, but when she came out she saw no sign of Cristian.

Being slightly lost and disappointed, Serena bit her lower lip and lowered her head.

Serena, what were you expecting? He treated you well just this once and already you were starting to expect more?

Serena lowered her head and went on.

"Why take you so long?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out. Serena looked up and wanted to replace where the sound was.

Next door was a coffee shop, and Cristian was sitting right on the outermost seat with a cup of coffee in front of him. Luca stood behind him and said, "Miss Serena, Mr. Cristian has been waiting for you for a long time, you are..."

Just slow!

Luca did not say the last words, because today Cristian was too strange and did things beyond his expectations.

Since when did Cristian have women around him?

A month ago Cristian suddenly called him and asked him to replace a woman, but he had no idea what had happened. However, a month later he found out that the two of them had sexual relations. And just then Alessandro forced Cristian to marry another woman, who was Serena.

At first, Luca thought that Serena would be mistreated by Cristian and be kicked out of the Ferrari family very soon, but who knew that he defended her from embarrassment! And he was also very generous! He bought the whole mall for her. Although the sum of money was worth nothing to the Ferrari family, he gave it to Serena, the woman who was not admitted by Cristian. Why did he care her so much?

After seeing Cristian, Serena smiled and walked quickly toward him.

"Didn't you leave?"

Clearly, a sense of joy could be heard in Serena's voice.

Cristian frowned. What happened to this woman? Why did she totally change her attitude toward him? Cristian narrowed his eyes and laughed without answering her. Serena coughed and said, "I'll push you."

Seeing this, Luca shifted and Serena took his position to help Cristian, while Luca followed them indifferently.

Serena's mood improved as she pushed Cristian's wheelchair, but such mood did not stay long as she asked a brief question.

"Why...did you help me, Cristian?"

The voice was doubtful as Serena was unsure.

Cristian was surprised for a moment in the wheelchair, and his deep eyes narrowed dangerously.

"What are you expecting?"

His words quelled any fantasy, as if pouring cold water on Serena's head.

Serena stopped and Cristian continued, "Do you think I like you because I bought you a mall?"

"I..."

"I will not want a divorcee and even pregnant woman!"
