Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 642: She suffered a lot of pain.

So if he did not bring it up, then Serena would bring it up.

Cristian pondered for a moment, half-closed his thin lips and spoke slowly.

-Tomorrow I will make the preparations, so you can rest today.

Tomorrow?

Serena nodded, -Okay, after we meet tomorrow, we'll go home."

It was ridiculous that she was suddenly fleeing the country, and then Anna also didn't seem to be in a good mood over there, although she couldn't see any emotional problems when they had talked on the phone last night.

However, Serena had noticed in the video call that her eyelids were a bit swollen and her eyes were red, evidence that she must have been crying for some time.

As for why she was crying, she did not need to think about it to know why.

So he had to come back a little earlier.

-Cristian frowned slightly, "Aren't you taking advantage of this opportunity to travel?"

-What else? Do you still want to travel a little?

-Is it bad?" Cristian stared at her for a few moments and did not know what she was thinking. After a moment, the look returned to his eyes, -It's good to come back soon. Serena suddenly thought about what they had said to each other before leaving the country.

-I will be your husband.

-And I will be the father of your child.

"Shit!"

The truth was that she had forgotten about this matter, and coming back in such a hurry she felt as if she was looking forward to making him her legal man.

Serena gritted her back teeth; it was always her fault if she forgot, so there was nothing to say now.

At the mere thought of Cristian going to meet Manuel, Serena's heart was still on edge.

What would Cristian's expression have been when he saw that Manuel looked exactly like him?

Would it have been surprise or shock? Perhaps he would have been elated?

There were mixed feelings in her heart, but Serena could not imagine any of that right now, so she could only wait until he returned home.

After a day at the hotel, Cristian had gone out for the night and Serena was left alone in her room video-chatting with Anna about work.

Since Cristian was not there, Serena was very loose and talked to Anna about everything. The two talked about work for a while, and suddenly Anna said that Manuel wanted to see her.

Serena thought about it, "Cristian will be gone for quite a while and he shouldn't be back so soon."

She nodded, "All right, bring him over, you can tell him in advance, we won't be able to talk long.

-No problem.

Soon Anna called Manuel, and Serena sat quietly at the table, watching the camera for a moment of silence before a pretty little head suddenly popped up.

-Mom!

Serena's lips curved involuntarily at the sight of Manuel, her eyes and voice softening.

-Manuel...

-Mom!

A second later, the expression on Manuel's face immediately became haughty: "Mom, you're the big bad, you clearly promised not to send me to the others when you were busy with work before." At his words, Serena froze for a moment and then smiled.

-I didn't break my word this time.

-But Mom, you went off on your own and answered me.

-Serena laughed helplessly, reaching out and tapping him on the forehead, though through the cold screen she couldn't help poking Manuel: -Take you with me? Don't you have to go to school? Silly boy." -Not only don't you take me with you, but you call me stupid, I've decided to interrupt my friendship with you for a day!

-A day? When does it start?

-Now!

-OK, then go and give your place to Anna.

-Why?" Manuel looked at her indignantly.

Serena held back her laughter and said seriously, "You said from now on you won't see me for a whole day, so if you stay like this, you won't be able to talk to me on video call."

What this said gagged Manuel to the point of speechlessness, and after a long look at Serena on the video, he suddenly flattened his mouth and shouted in accusation.

-Mom, how can you do this to me? Don't you love me anymore?

As he cried, the boy's eyes turned bright red.

Serena had held back her laughter, but when she saw that Manuel's eyes were really red, she could no longer laugh and said frightened, -Manuel, why are you really crying? I'm teasing you, don't be angry with me, why should I ignore you and leave you alone?

-But did you just say why should I give up my place to Aunt Anna?

As she spoke, she sobbed, with that pained look and expression, and looked at Serena with infinite self-criticism.

-I'm sorry, it's just a joke, I didn't mean for you to be sad and angry, forgive me, okay? You are my only child, I will not ignore you.

The calming words probably worked, and the boy blinked at her video call for a long moment before looking at her seriously and asking.

-Is it true what you say?

-Sure.

Fearing to make this child cry again, Serena was quick to nod and also tense her three fingers, -Don't you believe me? I promise you, okay? -Okay.

Manuel grunted and clasped his arms to his chest.

-I forgive you.

Hearing this, Serena could not help but smile and look at her son with joy.

-Sure.

-So when are you coming back? Last time you also said you would take me to recognize my father...."

Speaking of which, the little boy hollowed his cheeks, a hint of anticipation rising in his eyes.

-Well,II Serena thought about it and continued. -Probably when I come back this time, you can see your daddy."

-The little boy on the other side of the video instantly rubbed his hands together in anticipation: -So I can make all sorts of requests of Daddy?

Serena looked puzzled: -What kind of requests do you want to make?

-This I will keep secret, only me and my future daddy will know, I won't tell you.

Serena was speechless.

The two were talking when the door suddenly opened.
