Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 724: You must keep your promise.

-Ah!" shouting, Anna panicked and stood up to support Serena, "Serena, are you okay?

The sudden reaction overwhelmed everyone. Serena vomited so much that her face became dejected and she could not straighten up. Her forehead was covered with cold sweat.

It was obvious that she was very sick.

Seeing this, Chiara, who was standing to one side, went to call the doctor without saying anything.

-I'm sorry, Serena, did I serve your food too quickly? I'm sorry, I never thought that you had just woken up and I should have served you the food more slowly," after helping Serena up, Anna burst into tears. Panting, Serena was propped up on a very weak pillow, and one could tell she was breathing heavily. Anna could only give her a gentle pat on the back and said, -A thousand apologies, can I get you a glass of water?

-Let her rest a bit," looking at the scene, Matthew frowned and asked people to clean up the mess. Soon Chiara also brought the doctor. It could be said that everything was chaotic in the hospital room. Serena looked at the people in front of her.

Anna's eye sockets were so red it was frightening. Her tears resembled soybeans and she felt very embarrassed and uncomfortable.

Matthew, who was standing to one side, also looked a little pale. His chin was covered by more beard and he looked much worse than before.

Concerned, Chiara put things aside. The doctor approached Serena to examine her and said something serious.

Serena felt as if she had a ringing in her ears. After vomiting, she felt tired and so weak that she lay back down on the bed and said in a low voice, "I want to rest alone for a while. No one answered.

Anna gasped and asked, "Will you be all right if you stay alone?

Matteo looked at Serena seriously, was silent for a while and said, 'Let her rest.'

When he finished his words, Matteo walked directly out of the hospital room.

With some uncertainty, Anna cast a glance at Clare and she responded with a nod. The two walked out together and closed the door.

After leaving, Anna suddenly became worried.

-Why? Serena is not well now. If she stays inside alone...

-Anna patiently explained, -Serena is an adult now. She will understand when it's no longer time to be capricious.

-But you see how terrible the thought is for her.

-Because the shock has been so great, Serena needs time. She cannot accept Cristian's death, so she will try as much as possible to talk to herself. This is more difficult than getting her to accept that Cristian is already dead, you know? But in the meantime it was not going to be easy.

There was no other remedy. Sometimes life is so complicated.

Wasn't it like that? For example, if we are deceived, we console ourselves by saying that it happened to alleviate some disaster or to learn a lesson. Because this consolation was more acceptable than the truth despite its cruelty.

Perhaps people would spend their lives comforting and lying to each other over and over again.

Leaning against the door, Anna had not insisted on speaking further. She looked at Serena and wished Serena would come to her senses soon.

Serena had slept for a long time. When she had woken up, she was bewildered. Again, Anna had prepared her hot rice soup. But she had only managed to get her to eat less than a bowl. Each time Serena took a bite, Anna watched her action very carefully.

Serena said, "I'm fine. What happened this morning was an accident. It won't happen again.

Even if it did, Serena would not let people worried about her see it.

-Really? I'm afraid your stomach isn't quite right yet. If you feel uncomfortable, don't forget to tell me.

-Yes.

So when Serena almost ate a bowl of rice soup, Anna took it back and said she would let her eat more when Serena almost recovered. And when Serena said she wanted to see Matthew, Anna's eyes widened.

-Your brother...

-I just want to ask him if he found Cristian nearby. Anna, you don't have to stop me like that.

Considering that Serena's voice sounded calm, Anna calmed down a bit and went to call Matteo.

After arriving, Matteo said directly.

-Cristian has not yet been found. But our staff is increasing and looking for him. Serena, so far they haven't found Cristian yet, do you understand what I'm saying?

Serena nodded her head. She seemed to understand, but she still had some doubts.

After a while, she said with a sad smile, "Brother, I know you want to tell me that it would be better if Cristian is not found. That means his chances of survival might be better, right?

As Serena said this, Matteo could only nod his head.

-I know. Not being found is better than being found dead and carrying his corpse in front of me. That way, there is always hope. I also know that nothing happened to Cristian, as many people survived. If there are some who got lucky among the survivors, I think Cristian is also included among them. Isn't that right, brother?

As she said the last words, Serena raised her head and looked at Matteo, wanting to get his consent.

Matteo did not know what to say and could only nod obediently.

After a moment, Matteo pulled Serena closer to him. He touched her head and said softly, "Serena, I'm glad you think so. You already know you are pregnant.

Serena was amazed, looked at her belly and said, "Maybe.

-I had already found out, but I wasn't sure. I wanted Cristian to go with me to the hospital to be checked in case I was pregnant after the wedding. If I was really pregnant, then the pregnancy would be my wedding gift to him.

Speaking of this, a smile appeared, warm like a spring breeze, "If Cristian knew I was pregnant, he would be very happy. Brother, do you think Cristian will come back sooner when I spread this news? Matthew replied, "Yes, he will come back sooner.

-Well, I will be here waiting for him. As for the news of my pregnancy, will you broadcast it for me?

-Don't worry," Matteo looked at his sister with a firm gaze, "If Cristian still exists in the world, I will bring him to you. I am sure I will bring him back to you safely.

Of course, Matthew had not said, if Cristian did not exist in the world, what could he do.

-Brother, I will remember. You will have to keep your promise.

"Cristian, you must also keep the promise, the one you made to me, that you would surprise me."

"I believe you. Nothing will have happened to you. I am waiting for your surprise." she thought.

In the following days, Serena stayed in the hospital to recover. At first, Matteo visited her every day. But because he had many things to settle in the country, Matteo had to take time to return home. After returning to the country, Matteo found a more complicated matter.

It was Manuel Giordano.

On the day she was married, because Serena knew there was media at the wedding, she did not want Manuel to be disturbed by those immoral media and had not allowed him to attend her wedding.
