Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 963: Premeditated

Anna's thoughts really bothered Serena, and unfortunately Manuel was next door, so she couldn't say too clearly so as not to convey bad ideas to Manuel.

And Anna, probably thinking that the light in the room was not good, went out again with her cell phone.

There was no telling where she had gone to find a suitable place.

When Cristian did not return before noon, Serena thought, "How can he be so lazy? Did Luca get up early to bring the baby and sleep so long in the hotel? Is it because he didn't sleep well the night before?" Instead of seeing Cristian, Serena had seen Domenico from Familia Calligaris take Manuel.

So Serena had let Manuel go with Domenico, urging him to behave himself in front of Angelo Calligaris.

It was New Year's Eve, but the house was empty.

Serena was so sad that she lowered her head, touched her belly and whispered: -Baby, baby, baby, now you are the only one left with mom.

-Will you continue today? Didn't I say yesterday that we have two days off? -David looked helplessly at Cristian, standing in front of him like a dear friend he could not stop advising over and over again.

He hoped his best friend would take a more conservative approach to treatment and not always take such dangerous measures.

-Yes, let's continue today. -Christian's expression and voice were calm, unchanging. Were it not for the slightly pale face, Davide would have thought it was normal.

David could not help but grimace, -Do you think this is helpful?

-Isn't that what you said? -Cristian raised his eyes and looked at him coldly.

Although they were good friends, David had always been afraid of Cristian. After all, his gaze was always full of power.

He felt he had to surrender.

-Forget it.

He stopped trying to convince him. They were old friends and she knew she could not convince Cristian, so she would have to take better care of him by his side.

When he finished, Cristian was so cold that his pale face was a little worse than before. But he still had achieved nothing.

On the way back, Luke looked him in the face and asked, "Sir, if you keep this up, the lady will notice when we go back.

-Then we won't go back. -Christian said indifferently.

Luca, -Will you not go back? Then, in case the lady asks, what about the little mister?

-The company has been quite busy lately. We are not in the country. There's no new year. And I have to take care of the company's business during the day as well as rest at night.

As cruel as it was to say, the most urgent thing he wanted to do now was to recover his memory.

But he didn't want to worry Serena.

If she knew that he used that method, according to that woman's character, she surely would not let him go again, and then she would say that it did not matter whether he regained his memory or not. Luke felt that was a pathetic excuse and said with difficulty, "Even if you were busy with work, shouldn't you not go home?

-How?

Cristian raised an eyebrow and narrowed his eyes, -Do you have a problem with that?

Facing their hard, cold stares, Luca took a step back, "No, it's not a problem. I'm just thinking of a better solution for you. After all, if you don't come home every day, the lady will notice something strange. -So now you have a better idea?

-No.

-Then do as I say, so that she doesn't find it.

Maybe in a couple of days his memory would be completely restored, and then if Serena tried to stop him, she wouldn't have to worry.

Luca, -Okay, sir.

That was all that could be done for now.

All New Year's days were boring, and Serena received the news that Cristian was busy at work and would not be coming home for a few days. Before she could whine, Anna, who was standing beside her, began to complain.

-What's wrong with him? He left his wife and child at home in the middle of the new year, is he? crazy?

Anna clearly lacked confidence when she said that last sentence. And she looked around to make sure Cristian was not here before she finished the sentence.

Luca was also helpless; he had come only to convey the message and could not say too much to hide the fact.

So when he finished, he had to leave.

But he wanted to look at Anna once more.

-It's understandable. At home it's New Year's Eve and abroad there are no traditional holidays in our country, so the company has to function. He is the president of the company, he has to set an example. -What is the example? -Anna made a disdainful pout. I don't think a company of that size can't function without him for a few days, doesn't the national company function perfectly without him? Although the stock has dropped quite a bit, I don't think taking time off will have much effect, eh?

-Moreover, for us, this is a very important day to get together at home, but.... It's not that I have a problem with him, I'm just defending Serena. Anna's words struck a chord, and even Luke felt it was not a convincing reason, so for a moment he did not know how to respond to her. Serena, on the other hand, remained calm the whole time, while the others were too excited.

-Serena, why don't you say something? You are angry with him, aren't you?

Anna took Serena's hand and said anxiously.

Serena looked up and stroked Anna's hand comfortingly. She turned her gaze to Luca and said.

-Is that what he told you?

Even Luca did not expect her to be so calm and did not know what was going on. He could only nod.

-Yes, that's exactly what he told me. And I'm going to pick up Manuel and bring him from now on, so that he can take care of the company.

-Good. -Serena smiled sweetly. Then it will be hard for you to carry Manuel back and forth every day. By the way, if Manuel is fine with Angelo, then let him stay with Angelo for a few days first, and then take him when his father has finished his work.

Luca agreed, and with the news left for Cristian.

When he was gone, Anna gritted her teeth and said, "Serena, how can you be so easy? Of course it's all a lie. I don't think it's believable not to go home for work.

Serena nodded, -I know it's not credible.

Anna's eyes widened in surprise, -You know it's not credible, but you....

-How do you think it is?

Who? Anna froze for a moment before realizing that Serena was referring to Cristian, who, as far as she could remember, was not a bad person and had been quite kind to Serena this time.... -Can it be that there is a reason why he suddenly doesn't want to go home?

Serena said calmly: -Now it seems that his sudden offer to go out to a hotel with Luca must have been premeditated.

Anna could not understand and asked confusedly, -What do you mean premeditated? Serena, is he cheating on you?
