Semua Bab A Complicated Romance: Bab 111 - Bab 120

Michael’s persistence left Heather with no other choice but to agree for the young couple to be together although she was still dissatisfied with Christina.Christina never had a peaceful day after their marriage as Heather mocked and ridiculed her daily. It only got worse when she still had not conceived a baby. Heather even openly brought Serena back home to make things awkward for her.Apart from that, in order to improve her fertility, Heather also forced her to drink all sorts of traditional remedies such as a special alcoholic concoction made by preserving scorpions and red ants.She started throwing up at the sight of those wriggly worms. One day, she finally had enough and refused to drink the concoction.Infuriated, Heather scolded her incessantly and asked her to pack up her belongings to leave if she refused to drink up.The continuous mental and physical torture finally pushed Christina to her limits. She could not endure this anymore.She began to stand up for hersel

“No!” Matthew explained, “I’m just upset that I’m not the first man you met and that I only met you after you’ve been hurt by others!“Christina, it’s not too late. Be my girlfriend and let me take care of you. I won’t let you be hurt anymore…”Before she could reply, a sarcastic laugh rang in her ears. “Young Master Henderson, have you changed your career to be an actor? Which drama are you rehearsing for?”Michael was standing by the restaurant’s entrance, dressed in a freshly pressed suit. He leaned against the door frame casually as he threw a spiteful glance at Matthew.The dislike he had for the latter had now turned into hatred.Matthew was using Christina as bait to seduce John so in order to acquire the old town redevelopment project. He clenched his teeth in fury.He had been watching Matthew’s every move. He knew what Matthew had planned when he heard that the man reserved an entire restaurant and decorated the venue with lots of fresh flowers and balloons.As such, h

It was only when Fred informed him about Christina’s safety did Matthew let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that she had already gotten into a cab and was arriving at her house soon. Relieved, Matthew drove himself to the hospital.On the other hand, Christina had already discussed with Francis about the move to a new house. It would only be a matter of time until the two finally moved out of the old town.Although it was small, their new place was wider and brighter than the apartment they were living in now. Christina made her way to the local vegetable market where she bought some fresh supplies for the small celebration with Francis and Travis later. A few rounds had passed and Francis slowly became drunk. As the alcohol got to him, Francis started to blabber. “Thank God you’re so capable, Christina. Your mama would’ve been so proud of you if she were here.”“Yeah. Mama must be guiding us from heaven. She must be looking at us now, so we must show her that we’re living a g

This was Christina’s house. In it stored all her fondest memories from her childhood. She once told Michael that she did not want anyone but him to know this part of her life, yet there Sean stood.Did she do this to forget him? How could she share this part of her life with Sean? A fire burnt deep in Michael’s heart. How cruel she was.He would not let her do this as long as he lived. Michael circled around the apartment as he searched aimlessly for Christina’s silhouette. With a child in their hands, it was rather impossible that the duo would walk that fast.A thought popped in his mind as he suddenly remembered the small river behind the apartment. It had been Christina’s favorite place. With that in mind, he rushed off to the riverside.It had been quite some time since she came to the riverside. As Jade City had been slowly developing over time, the only thing that remained the same was this river. Crystal clear, the waters had no trace of pollution. It was just as it used

Sean and Michael were soon engaged in a battle of words. Christina stood next to Sean as the trio confronted each other.At that moment, Travis spotted a butterfly fluttering around the grass. Attracted by it, he walked to the shore barefooted, kicking his legs around as he chased after the butterfly.On the other hand, Michael only had his eyes on Christina and Sean. Seeing that he had not noticed Travis’ disappearance, Christina let out a sigh of relief. “Your clothes are wet, Sean. Come, let’s get out of the water.”Nodding his head, Sean held her hand as they walked to the shore. Putting on their shoes, Sean did not forget to cast Michael a murderous glance along the way. “Your wedding ceremony would certainly be an interesting event, President Larson. Don’t forget to send me your wedding invitation, okay? Can’t wait for it!”Seeing how deflated Michael looked, Christina felt happiness vibrate deep in her bones. Putting on her shoes, she took a glance at Travis and reminded S
