Semua Bab New Romance in Marriage: Bab 41 - Bab 50

“Not in the mood to sleep?” Chris asked. Paige was speechless. That was a dangerous question to answer. “I’m going to bed.” Paige instantly shut her eyes tight. Chris had no words. Ha. She sure acted like a child. Chris went back to sleep. Paige, however, kept her eyes closed. She was too afraid to open them and be met with his gaze, which made her weak in the knees.Soon, Paige drifted off to sleep. …Paige opened her eyes in the morning and looked at the sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling window. Her lips curled into a smile.Great. She lived to see another day. Last night, she thought she was done for. Somehow, she felt a sense of relief as if she had escaped a big one.Paige sat up and breathed a sigh of relief when she did not see Chris. She had no idea how she should face him. While lost in her thoughts, Chris opened the door and walked in. Paige was at a loss for words. She shied away from his gaze. However, Chris stared strai

Chris only loved Sierra. Yet, now, Chris said to her face that he did not love her. He never had. The fact that Chris did not have feelings for her was a blow to Sierra’s confidence. Sierra’s belief, the very thing supporting her pride and smugness, was non-existent. At that moment, Sierra felt like her whole world had fallen apart. Paige and Wendy looked at Chris in shock. Like Sierra, they had thought Chris was in love with Sierra. Otherwise, he did not have to choose her. “No.” Sierra bounced back and said, staring into Chris’ eyes. “If you don’t love me, why did you get engaged to me?” Chris replied without emotions, “Everybody at home wanted to get involved in my marriage.” He was Chris Jewell, the future successor to the Jewells’ billion-dollar corporation. His marriage involved many things. No matter who became his wife, the woman could share his billion-dollar empire in the future. His grandfather, uncle, aunt, parents, and even aunt, who had her own famil

Chris drew a puff and lifted Paige’s chin to seal her lips. He breathed out all the smoke into Paige’s mouth. Paige had never smoked before. All she could feel was a strange taste going down her throat. “Cough…” Feeling uncomfortable, she placed her hands on Chris’ chest to push him away, but Chris deepened the kiss until… …Chris and Paige checked in to the hotel at 11:00 AM and only checked out when it was time for dinner. Like before, Chris handled the check-out while Paige stood far away with her face down to hide her embarrassment. To check everything was in order, the receptionist called the cleaner to inspect the room for any damage or items used by the guest.They communicated through a walkie-talkie. Since Paige stood a distance away, she could not hear the interaction clearly. Nevertheless, she picked up on the consumption of two boxes of protection. Paige’s head hung lower. She did not dare look at anyone. She wished she could bury herself in a hole.

Paige gave a nod. Chris said goodbye to his group. The business partners left as they had other plans for the evening. Chris approached Paige and said, “Come on.” Paige nodded. “Okay.” She smiled at Randall and said, “You should get home with Sierra, Randy. We’re leaving.” Randall nodded. Sierra did as well, her eyes lingering on Chris. Although Chris broke her heart with his cruel words, she still could not get over him. Chris was a captivating man. His social status and family wealth aside, Chris had the looks and personality women appealed to. He acted without emotions, and no woman could win his heart. It was the type of personality that challenged women to tame and capture his heart. He was easy to love and harder to fall out of love with. Sierra knew that. However, there was no turning back between her and Chris. The right thing to do was move on from Chris and be with James. Although James could not compete with Chris, she was reaching high by being w

Sierra was tempted by James even though she had Chris back then. Now that Sierra had James, she could not forget Chris. Ha… Women. … Paige entered a lingerie shop. The choices dazzled her. It had been years since Paige shopped for lingerie in a store. She usually got her unmentionables online. It was too late to order online, so she had to pick one up in-store. Since stepping into the lingerie shop, Paige could not stop from blushing. It was normal for women to shop for undergarments in a lingerie shop. She was acting suspicious, knowing the purpose she was there. She could not shake off the embarrassment. As Paige entered the shop, the salesperson welcomed her with a smile, “Can I help you with anything?” Paige, rosy in the cheeks, whispered, “I’m just looking around.” “Okay,” the saleswoman replied.She then left Pagie some space. The saleswoman could understand where Paige was coming from. As a veteran in the undergarment business, she had seen man
