Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 25

Luke’s face looked somber with a tight frown, but he didn't defend himself.

After all, he took Isabella here. If there was really anything happened to her, he would feel really guilty.

He then told Christian his phone number: "Let's split up and search. If you find her first, please call me."

Christian didn't wait for him to finish or even look at him, but just striaghtly walked out with long strides.

Looking at him, Luke was slightly startled.

……...

Fortunately, the manager in the convenience store could speak English. He borrowed Isabella a phone's charger.

After turning on her phone, she was just about to call Luke back when all kinds of messages suddenly popped up on her screen one by one in a minute.

Isabella was shocked.

Then she came to her senses and hurriedly took a look.

All of them were Luke's missed calls and messages.

When she pressed the return button, she saw another number, and her eyes slowly froze.

Christian?

He was also looking for her?

Her phone suddenly rang. She was so shocked that her hand trembled. She then quickly answered the phone.

"Hey, hey."

"Where are you? Why didn’t you answer my phone?" It was a familiar steady and deep male voice, but somehow it sounded a bit anxious.

Dazed for a moment, she replied stiffly, "My, my phone ran out of battery."

"Send me your location, and I’m coming for you." He didn't ask any further."

Isabella wanted to ask him why he was coming for her but felt that it was unnecessary, so she just rejected, "It's okay. My phone has just been charged, so I can get back by taxi later."

"Are you sure you can find the right way? This is in Japan." Christian couldn't help but mock her, then he quickly said, "I'm driving, so I can't be distracted. Just send me your address."

Then the man directly hung up the phone.

Isabella was a little embarrassed at his words, and she almost dissed him back just now. She was indeed terrible at directions but not an idiot. Even if she didn’t know, GPS could help her too.

Twitching her mouth, she still send him her location. After walking for a long time, she didn't want to move anymore.

As she was waiting, she called Luke as well.

"Hello, Luke. It’s me."

"Isabella, where are you? I've been looking for you! I was so anxious." He finally let out a sigh of relief when she finally answered the phone.

Isabella felt extremely guilty, "Sorry, Luke, my phone ran out of charge."

"As long as you’re safe. Where are you now? I'll come to pick you up."

Isabella hesitated for a few seconds, and asked suddenly, "Luke, are you alone? Where's Rachel? "

"She is still at the hotel, and I'm looking for you outside."

Isabella hesitated for a moment again and asked, "Then, why would Christian …"

Luke replied blandly, "He lives in the same hotel as us, and coincidentally ran into me at the front desk. I was afraid that something might have happened to you, and it would be easier to have one more person to help. "

After hearing this, she didn't know her exact feeling but just gave a light "Oh".

It turned out he was just doing a humanitarian favor.

She said calmly after a while: "Luke, you should go back first. I am a bit worried about Rachel. Christian has already coming for me. He can take me home. "

Luke was a little worried, "Will you quarrel?"

After all, they had just gotten divorced, so it was a little awkward to meet each other.

Isabella immediately laughed, "What's the point of quarreling when we have already divorced. He won’t leave a pregnant woman on the street."

She knew Christian's personality. Even if he didn’t love her, he was still a graceful person.

In fact, they had never quarreled in the past three years, and Christian hadn’t gotten angry at her even once. It was her who often felt this boring life was very annoying, and would occasionally make a fuss, but at most he may get impatient .

She had beard enough of his boring tepid attitude, or why else would they get divorced?

Silent for a few seconds, Luke then gently said, "Okay, be careful. Let me know when you get to the hotel."

"Sure."

Then she heard the engine going off at the entrance of the store.

Just as she was about to take a look, Christian had already walked in. His deep gaze swept over her body, saying:“ Let’s go.”

Upon seeing him, Isabella felt that it was quite awkward. She didn't even know whether to smile or not.

She turned his face away and picked up her backpack, saying, "Okay."

As Christian drove the car steadily, Isabella sat in the back seat, leaning her head against the door. She looked a bit tired, and didn’t seem to want to talk.

The man, who was seemingly focused on driving, somehow put all his attention on Isabella. He glanced at the rear-view mirror from time to time.

She always sat in the passenger seat naturally, but now she was running straight behind.

He still hadn't recovered from their divorce, but she had got used to her new identity and keep her distance from him, to the point where he couldn’t easily say what he think about.

Christian gripped steering wheel. Anger gradually rose from his heart.
