Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 679: Building good trust.

-But...can you really win over my uncle?

What this said was that there were many suspicions that she could not do it. Anna looked at Manuel and could not help but reach out to rub his soft cheek.

-What are you talking about, not helping me? If you are willing to help me, I can surely win your uncle over.

Manuel blinked his dark eyes, so clear that he could clearly see all the emotions.

-Well, we are almost at your uncle's company, remember to help me.

On the other side.

Cristian heard that Serena had settled Manuel, did not turn the car around, but drove straight in the direction of the Atlantic villa.

After returning to the country, she had visited Atlantic villa only once.

That time, she and Cristian had not reconciled; when she had come to the villa, it had been for design orders.

Unexpectedly... Time had flown by so quickly.

The sea breeze in the night was cold, and Serena sat on the wooden plank, curled up in her pajamas and looked out at the moonlit sea, feeling her heart calm down.

The calm night and the sea could calm people's emotions, but if it rolled in the waves, it was also extremely turbulent.

With the sea breeze blowing, Serena felt a little cold, unconsciously clutching her arms and shrinking into a ball.

But the cold had not diminished, and the wind on the beach was stronger and colder than the wind in the city. Just when Serena could not help but get up and go back into the house, a tall figure sat down beside her and then covered her with a warm coat.

Serena looked to the side, and Cristian, who had been bathing, sat beside her, his skin a little flushed from the warm water, his thin lips still pressed together, and his hair dripping with water.

Seeing this scene, Serena could not help but frown.

-Why don't you even dry your hair?

Was the sea breeze so strong that he thought her body was made of iron?

Cristian looked at her, his eyes shining in the night, and said weakly, -It's okay, I'm healthy, but you? You don't put your clothes on anymore when you sit here at night.

Serena shrugged her shoulders when she heard the words, -If I'm cold, I'll go into the house.

-But did you just finish your bath, or..." She wanted to get up, but Cristian grabbed her wrist and pulled Serena into his arms.

-Ah.

This movement was a little violent, Serena sank into his arms, and her soft cheeks hit his hard chest, making her moan in pain.

She had just bathed, and her body still smelled after the bath, and her embrace was also very warm, and the cold in Serena's body was quickly dispelled by this embrace. -Serena sensed that something was wrong with him and asked.

Cristian lowered his head and buried it in her neck. Drops of water from his hair dripped onto Serena's neck without warning. The cold sensation made her body shiver unconsciously. When she tried to push him away, she heard an apology.

-I'm sorry.

Serena was stunned, thinking she had misunderstood.

Was he just... Was he apologizing to her?

A very muffled sound came from his neck, his thin lips still pressed against the skin of her neck, so she didn't feel it very real, so Serena relied on tone to identify it.

-Are you...apologizing?" she asked, feeling ever so slightly embarrassed.

Cristian's large hand moved to her waist, clutching her slim waist, his voice became a little muffled.

-Yes, I am apologizing, do you forgive me?

Serena thought for a moment, -For what happened in the last few days?

Cristian did not answer her directly yes or no, but he hugged her tightly again. Serena sensed that he had something to say, so she did not ask him again. She let him hold her in silence, listening to the powerful beat of her heart, waiting for him to say it.

On a quiet night, there was only the sound of the night wind pushing the waves against the beach, and the sound of their breathing.

With his embrace, Serena felt she was not cold, lying in his arms and waiting for her to fall asleep, Cristian opened his lips slightly.

-From now on, I will give you all my trust.

It had not been easy for them to get this far.

If trust had not been established between the two, the relationship could have easily collapsed.

-All...your trust?

Was there trust between her and Cristian? The two had not spent much time together, if they could have given each other a little more trust, then it would not have come to this point. Like five years ago...

-Ok, even if you know something in the future, you won't be able to doubt me anymore, II Serena thought for a moment, and simply agreed with him directly.

Cristian nodded with a smile.

-I will give you all my trust in the future, even if I die, I will no longer doubt you. But.

He changed the subject, -You still need to stay away from Leonardo. All the things I told you earlier at the airport are true.

-I understand,II Serena nodded, -I will stay away from him.

After learning about Leonardo's identity and Cristian's past, Serena felt that if these two brothers said they had no enmity, it would be too disingenuous.

Cristian's behavior had always been normal, but Leonardo's?

He had always seemed like a gentleman, even though he had never said anything bad about Cristian in front of her.

But what he had always done was try to separate her from Cristian.

The intent in this was really clear.

Serena closed her eyes and made a secret decision. She did not want to be the victim between the two brothers and she did not want Cristian to have difficulties because of her.

If they wanted to fight, she would let the two brothers fight as they wanted.

-Why are you suddenly so well-behaved, II Cristian released her and asked with one hand pinching her chin.

Serena's face reddened, biting her lower lip and looking up at him.

Cristian's gaze was unclear, and his thin lips evoked an indifferent bow, -For my three days of neglect, did you realize that you still care a lot about me, then...?

Before he could finish speaking, Serena interrupted him.

-Stop talking about it, I took the initiative to look for you, are you very proud of that?

The man leaned down, forehead against her, and laughed softly.

-Why am I proud, II he said, -who came looking for me and left after a few words? If I had not sent you away, you would have left on your own.

Serena, it's because you always change your attitude.

-Cristian held his cheeks with both hands, and his black eyes were very bright in the night. He brought his face closer and a warm breath brushed Serena's face. Her thin lips moved slightly. -I will give you all the enthusiasm in the future.

His gaze was too warm, and such a short distance made it hard for Serena to bear. She blinked, and when she wanted to pull back, the fiery kiss fell away.
