Adoration At Night and Forever novel Chapter 12

After drinking water in the kitchen, Christine went back to her room. When she passed the dining table, she was called "little bitch" by Amanda innocently. However, Christine intended to ignore her.

When Christine stepped into the room again, it was empty.

It was not that all the things were missing, but that all the things were neatly tidied, not as messy as before, but much more spacious and bright.

"Miss Christine, Mr. Nicholas asked me to bring you the food. Would you like to eat now?"

Aunt Lucy was waiting at the door with hot food. Her aged eyes were slightly red, but she still stared at Christine lovingly.

Since Christine's mother passed away, Aunt Lucy had been the best to her in the Luo family.

"Aunt Lucy, come on in!" As Christine greeted Aunt Lucy, she happily reached out her hands to take the service plate from Aunt Lucy.

"Okay." Aunt Lucy wiped her red eyes, but she didn't give the service plate to Christine. Instead, she turned around and put it on the small table beside.

Although Nicholas didn't say anything, everyone in the Luo family had known that Miss Christine was going to get married. If she was not wrong, this should be the last time she served Miss Christine!

Aunt Lucy smiled bitterly. When Christine's mother passed away, she had repeatedly told Aunt Lucy to take good care of Miss Christine. However, so many years had passed, she had done nothing for Miss Christine.

"Aunt Lucy, what's wrong with you? What difficulties have you encountered?" Aunt Lucy had been wearing a long face since she came in. Of course, Christine noticed it.

"No, No." Aunt Lucy forced a smile at Christine. Her stiff smile blended with the wrinkles on her face, revealing a very ugly big smile.

"Aunt Lucy, if you have any difficulty, please tell me! Don't keep it to yourself. It will be very uncomfortable." Christine's love for Aunt Lucy had already surpassed all the people in the Luo family.

Aunt Lucy had been taking care of Christine for more than ten years. Although Christine didn't say anything, she kept it in mind.

"I'm really fine. But you're going to get married today, so I feel a little depressed." Aunt Lucy stroked Christine's little face with relief. She was like a good mother whose daughter was going to get married.

"Get married today? I just promised to marry Darren yesterday, didn't I? Why did you say that I would get married today? Aunt Lucy, are you mistaken?"

With a shocked look on Christine's face, Christine stared at Aunt Lucy, waiting for Aunt Lucy's answer eagerly.

"I don't know the details. Please eat first! You can ask Mr. Nicholas about it after breakfast."

Aunt Lucy sighed helplessly. She also hoped that what she heard was just rumors, so that she could see more about Miss Christine.

"Okay." Then Christine took Aunt Lucy's hand and sat down at the table.

Well, judging from the dishes, the sun in the Luo family must be rising in the west today.

"Miss Christine, you'd better eat by yourself. If we eat together, it would be against the rules." Aunt Lucy was pulled to sit down at the table by Christine and quickly stood up again.

"What are you talking about? Since you are here with me, you don't have to pay attention to any rules. If you want, I'll take you as my mother now."

It was not the first time that Christine said these words, but Aunt Lucy didn't agree. Christine couldn't force her to do that.

"Miss Christine..." Seeing that Aunt Lucy was going to make a long speech to her again, Christine stopped at once.

"Okay, Aunt Lucy! If you really treat me well, don't call me Miss Christine anymore. Otherwise, I will be angry!"

Well, it seemed that she was too anxious in the past. To deal with such a kind person as Aunt Lucy, she had to slowly use sugar-coated bullets.

"Well, you naughty girl." Aunt Lucy was always helpless with Christine. It was obvious that Aunt Lucy lost again this time, and Christine won.

"Ha ha, that's perfect! Since we can get along with each other like mother and daughter, why are we so alienated?"

Holding Aunt Lucy's arm, Christine filled a bowl of soup for her obediently. Fearing that Aunt Lucy wouldn't accept it, Christine filled another bowl of soup for herself.

Aunt Lucy had no choice but to pick up the bowl and have breakfast with Christine.

After having breakfast with Aunt Lucy, Christine rushed to look for Nicholas.

She had just agreed to marry Darren last night. The date of their marriage hadn't been confirmed yet. Why would they get married today? She had to ask Nicholas about it.

"Christine? Why are you here? What's up?" Since Christine promised to marry Darren, Nicholas' attitude towards Christine had been very good!

That was true. After all, she would become the wife of Darren. With her current status, Nicholas couldn't afford to offend her.

"I'm here to ask you about my marriage with Darren." Now that their relationship had broken down, Christine couldn't treat Nicholas as she used to do.

"Oh, I see! I saw you leave in a hurry yesterday, so I forgot to tell you." Nicholas rubbed his hands and cleverly shirked the responsibility. What a cowardly man.

"It's not late for you to say it now." Hearing that, Christine frowned. She didn't like Nicholas anymore now.

As a father, no one could be as selfish as Nicholas.

It was said by some ignorant person that the love of parents in the world was selfless. If he came forward, Christine must cut his tongue!

"Your Uncle Brian has called me before. Because Darren is the focus of the whole upper class circle, you two won't hold a wedding ceremony. You can enter the house of the Xi family at any time after you agree."

What Nicholas said was quite artistic. He didn't even give a decent wedding ceremony to Christine, but when it came to his mouth, it sounded like that the door of my house was always open for you. Look, what a sweet speech!

"To put it bluntly, you want me to be invisible? What about the marriage certificate? Do we need to get it?" Christine knew that Nicholas didn't love her at all.

"Your marriage certificate has been got last night. The marriage certificate of Mr. Darren of the Xi family doesn't need you two to appear in person. A big shot like Mr. Darren doesn't need to do anything by himself."

Deep in her heart, Christine really admired her father. Although he sold his own daughter, he didn't feel guilty at all, he even helped an outsider.

Should she say that he always helped outsiders, not his families, or that he was inhuman?

"Okay, I see." After taking a deep breath, Christine was about to go out without taking a look at Nicholas.
