“Well, I’d just be sitting around at home anyway,” Rachel replied softly as she sat next to the bed and began peeling fruits for Madam Henderson. Matthew, who returned after smoking a cigarette, appeared to be deep in thought when he discovered his mother enjoying the woman’s company.Rachel walked over to nudge the man who was zoning out by the door. “What are you doing here? Go in!”Matthew was brought back to reality. “I have something to ask you.”“Is it about Aunty? Don’t worry, she’s emotionally stable—”“No, it’s about you and me.” Matthew stared at her pretty face. “Rachel, do you really want to marry me so badly?”She stared back with confusion. “Do you want to marry me despite knowing that I don’t love you?” He persisted.The woman nodded. “Matthew, I want to marry you. I still do even if you don’t love me!”“Think carefully, because I’ll never love you, not in a million years. Our marriage will only be for appearance. I’ll go on spending my nights with different women

Old Madam Young left not long after checking on Christina. She reminded Sean when he saw her out. “You can’t be here every day. Don’t forget you still have a business to run. I’ll let the servants at home take care of Christina.”“Don’t worry, I can take care of her. I won’t neglect work.”“But you can’t be at the hospital all the time or people would gossip.”“Grandma, she’s my friend and she wouldn’t have gotten injured if not to save you. I have to look after her at the hospital.” Old Madam Young understood the hidden meaning behind her grandson’s words. He deliberately mentioned she was the cause of Christina’s injury to have the last word.If he thought of using this against her so he could be with Christina, then… Old Madam Young returned home with a load on her mind.She had encountered numerous obstacles in her long life but never once was she in such a dilemma.In actuality, she did not dislike Christina. Back then, she stopped the young couple from being together beca

“We’ll see about that.” Christina gave a vague reply. She understood perhaps Old Madam Young’s intention stemmed from the idea of repaying her kindness. However, she did not want to use that as leverage, not to mention that she no longer had the intention to be with Sean anymore.Her ambiguous remark allowed the others to imagine different possibilities.Michael tightened his fingers around the spoon until his knuckles went white. He could not repress the fire raging inside him. “Have some more food. You’ve lost some weight lately.” He helped Serena to get more food.The latter was overjoyed. Christina smiled at the couple. “You treat my younger sister really well!”This was the first time she called Serena her sister. John was over the moon to hear that. Michael, on the other hand, almost choked and started coughing incessantly.John also placed more food into Christina’s bowl. It was the same food that Michael helped Serena to. Christina immediately picked the food out and cast

Christina teared up because in this house, only Laura would care about her now. Therefore, she let Miss Laura enter her room. However, she inadvertently spotted Michael walking up the stairs.Serena’s room was on the other side of the corridor on the second floor. Michael really cared about Serena. While thinking about that, Christina closed the door emotionlessly.“Miss Laura, come sit down.” Christina took the black tea from her hands and took a sip.“Christina, are you hungry? I can prepare something for you to eat.”“Thanks, Miss Laura. I want some noodles.”“Alright. I’ll cook some noodles for you.” Miss Laura took a few steps while hesitating to say the words or not. “Miss Serena was hurt. Christina, do you want to check on her?”Christina was stunned, but she reacted quickly. “I know. I’ll go and have a look later.”Laura opened the door and left after she heard what Christina said.Christina never wanted to check on Serena, but she understood Laura’s efforts because she

Michael took his coat and went out after he gave the orders. His blood was boiling as he drove away from Oak Lake Villa because Christina dared to make fun of him.That woman thought she could get away from him by blacklisting his phone number and hiding inside the Garcias’ residence? Christina must have thought that he would not dare to do anything to her openly in the Garcias’ residence! Michael gritted his teeth, and his gaze was fierce. ‘Christina, you’re still too inexperienced to challenge me. I’ve got to get you out of the house tonight!”The hostess called Christina to tell her that the customer had forced her out after she got chased out of the villa by Michael. Everything happened like how Christina expected it to. She let the hostess be the frontliner just to make Michael sick.From what the hostess described, Michael was most likely fuming. He had mysophobia, so he might not be sleeping well tonight.Christina laughed while gloating. When she was about to sleep, a ser
