Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 117

Christian smiled. With some sense of doting, he directly put the fork into her hand, then pointed at the few large words on the left wall.

"Waste food shameful."

"…"

Isabella felt a little angry: "This is all your fault, Christian. Why didn't you remind me just now?"

Although she was being unreasonable troublesome, after finishing these noodles, they would never be able to sleep tonight.

Christian's voice was low and mellow, as if it was tapping on her heartstrings. "I just thought you were very hungry."

Isabella, "..."

She stopped talking. She would never talked to him. 

She was really blind before. Was this schemed person really the man who married her for three years but seldom saying anything?

No matter how angry she was, she still took the fork and started to eat with him.

When they lowered their heads at the same time, their lips were so close that they almost kissed each other. 

Isabella's heart skipped a beat. Afraid that any embarrassing situation may occur, she let the waiter bring over two small bowls. Then she pretended to be calm and gave him one.

Glancing at her as if he had already seen through her, Christian smiled without saying anything. 

After a while, he causally asked, "When are you planning to confess to Luke?"

"Umm, cough …"

It was not because he suddenly uttered something, but because of the content, Isabella choked and started to violently cough.

"Water." As if he had already expected her reaction, he passed her a water without any change of expression.

While Isabella was startled and her expression looked quite interesting. 

After drinking some water, she coughed a few times. Looking at him in a strange way, she then pretended not understand what he meant. "Confess? You're truly concerned about the matters between Luke and me. "

How did he know that she planned to confess to Luke?

This was only her own mind and she hadn't told anyone about it yet.

Or … She talked in her sleep?

Isabella suddenly felt fear in her heart. 

Christian picked up a piece of tuna and placed it in her bowl. Then he slowly said: "I had a dinner with him tonight, and told him what I thought. He's in a rush to find a stepmother for his daughter. If you don't have that idea, then don't waste their time."

"…"

Had a dinner and told him what you thought?

Why didn't she know that he already had such a good relationship with Luke? 

Isabella tried to calmed herself down and taunted: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you two have even become good friends. Whether I have such idea have nothing to do with you! I just like Rachel, so what if I'll be her stepmother?"

That girl was both pitiful and cute. She really wanted to take her as foster daughter, but she hadn't mentioned it to Luke. 

"If you want to be a mother, wait for the babies in your belly to come out. Eat. It's getting cold.” Christian stopped the topic and smiled faintly. 

Isabella choked. Just as she was about to lose her temper, his bland words stopped her. It was like a fist smashing against cotton, and she was extremely depressed.

Gritting her teeth, she took a big bite of the pasta.

Not knowing if it was because she was full of anger, or if it was due to the pasta, but after she finished eating, her stomach felt a bit uncomfortable. 

"There's a bridge in front. Let's take a walk there after go back. Eating too much would upset your stomach."

Hearing this, Isabella rebuked, "Who said I'm not feeling well. I'm feeling extremely comfortable."

With that, she cast a sidelong glance at her, "Tomorrow … No, today aren't you going back to the Leeds? Go back early if you have nothing else. I'm tired, so I'm going back to sleep. "

Just as she turned around, Christian suddenly pulled her into his embrace. "Don't rush. Let me hug you for a while."

"…"

Isabella was dumbstruck. She felt a wave of anger all of a sudden. 

What did he take her for?

"Christian! Let go of me! "

He ignored her.

Staring at him, she started to struggle.

"Christian!"

Why couldn't he just respect her a bit?

She used to think he was a gentleman, while now he looked more and more of a scoundrel.

As she was struggling, Christian buried himself in the back of her neck, gently breathing in her scent, then spoke in a hoarse and low voice, "Canon has already found an apartment for you, and he'll help you move the luggage over tomorrow. There's a monitor installed at the door which can connect to your phone, so you don't have to worry too much when you're outside."

Isabella stopped her struggling, raised her head and smiled faintly: "Christian, you don't need to do these for me if you're only for the babies. I'm really grateful, but I can't really can't pay you back."

Christian turned her body around, gently lifted up her lower jaw, then looked at her cold expression. With a hoarse voice, he said: "Wait until I know what you want, you can say these to me."

"…"

Isabella calmly stared at him.

What she wanted?

Had he finally started to care about what she really wanted?

Should she be happy? Or upset instead?

Isabella's expression even more complicated, but she still mocked coldly, "You guys are always the same. You don't cherish me when I'm with you, but after I left, you began to regret. I thought you were a person with few desires, now I know you're vulgar as the most. So why you waste your time on me? With your status, you can find any kind of girl you want." 

Smiling, she thought of something and said: "To be fair, that Lexie isn't really suitable for you. You'd better not think about her. "

She still had the video she filmed in Japan in her phone. She thought she must show it to him sometime, so that he could have a better view of Lexie.

Staring at her small mouth that kept opening and closing, his handsome face slowly showed a complicated expression.

Suddenly Christian lifted her jaw and kissed her lips.

"I... Umm."

...

After sending Isabella back to the ward, Christian drove away.  

Early in the morning, Canon helped Isabella move. 

When she arrived at the new residence, however, her pretty face darkened once again.         

"This is the apartment you found?" Staring intently at the few large words written on the stone sculpture at the entrance, she asked Canon with a deep tone.     

Scenery Bay.    

D*mn, she came back here again.             

Canon looked at her in confusion, but still explained, "Mr. Miller told me that this place is closer to your company, so he asked me to rent here."

"..."

F*ck!      

She was set up by him again.    

Isabella really wanted to curse right now.      

Looking at her angry face again, Canon asked, "Is there any problem?"        

Isabella took a deep breath and calmed herself down, "No, no problem. Let's move."     

It looked like Canon knew nothing about it, so she couldn't get mad at him. D*mn it! Last night, when Christian was still here, she forgot to ask him a single question about the apartment.
