Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 650

He hardly ever argued with her.

They didn't understand that a person who never quarreled with you was not necessarily the person who loved you the most.

But he must be the person who cared the least about you.

He just didn't care about you at all.

So your words and actions didn't matter to him.

The most important person to him was that lowly actress!

That woman grew up with him and he would never be able to forget her.

But she couldn't be mad at it.

She knew that her husband loved another woman, but she didn’t even have the right to be jealous.

Because a living person couldn't compete with a dead person.

How?

Because that woman was dead and would always be beautiful in his heart.

She haunted them like a nightmare.

How could she compete with that woman?

Christine's eyes turned red.

She was heartbroken.

She looked at her phone again and laughed at herself.

This was her son.

She gave birth and raised him, but now he talked back to her and told her to be open-minded!

Gosh! How... ironic!

Christine didn't know how long she had been crying.

She heard footsteps and a maid saying respectfully from downstairs, "Mr. Nixon."

She immediately went to the bathroom to wash her face and went out.

She had just reached the stairway when she saw her husband.

Chad asked gently, "I heard Rowan came to Eqitin. Where did you take her today?"

Rowan was Christine's niece, but Chad liked her, too.

Christine said indifferently, "Oh, we just went to Central Square."

Chad didn't notice that she was unhappy.

He smiled, "She'll be graduating from junior high soon. Since it's winter break and she came to Eqitin, you should spend more time with her. I heard she wants to go to college here. You can help her. Aren't you the best at things like this?"

In fact, Chad didn't mean anything else.

He was just saying that Christine was eager to help her relatives' children.

But maybe it was because Christine was upset.

She felt that Chad was being sarcastic.

She sneered, "I'm the best at this? So you think I can only help other people's kids figure out which college to attend? And I have nothing else better to do?"

Chad was confused.

He whispered, "That’s not what I meant."

Unexpectedly, Christine didn't want to back off easily.

She sneered again, "I know you despise me. You think my job is too easy and trivial so that I have so much free time to help others, don't you? Do you think you're the only one who's busy? You think I don’t deserve to be a part of the Nixon family?"

Chad thought Christine was just making a casual retort.

But as soon as he heard that, he realized it wasn't that simple.

He frowned, stopped taking off his jacket, and walked over, "What happened? Who pissed you off?"

Christine froze for a moment and snorted.

Without saying a word, she turned and headed for the dining room.

She didn't answer, and there was nothing Chad could do about it. He didn’t think he had done anything wrong today.

He didn’t mess with her or upset her.

So it was not because of him that she was losing her temper now, was it?

With this in mind, he was relieved and headed for the dining room as well.

Max and Kevin were not at home. Old Mr. Nixon had been in poor health for the past few years and had moved from Eqitin to a warmer southern city.

So only the couple was left at home.

They were not a loving couple, but they got along well.

They respected each other.

But the atmosphere in the dining room was strange today.

Christine looked unhappy, so Chad, who often joked at dinner, stayed quiet.

They ate in silence with their eyes fixed on the dishes.

The maids sensed the weird vibe and left. They were afraid to stay in the dining room for fear of being punished out of nowhere.

So there were no maids beside them.

Christine didn't eat much before she put down her fork.

She wiped her mouth with a napkin and got up to leave the table.

Chad was a bit stunned. He glanced at her plate full of food and frowned, "Where are you going?"

Christine uttered, "It's none of your business."

Chad's frown deepened.

This time he didn't remain silent.

He persuaded her patiently, "You have to eat something. You have a stomach problem. If you don't eat anything, you'll feel uncomfortable tonight and no one could sleep well."

He had no intention to blame Christine.

He just wanted to tell her to eat something for her own good. And he was trying to be thoughtful for those who would have to take care of her at night if she doesn’t feel well.

But Christine felt that he was blaming her.

She became furious hearing what he just said.

She turned her head to stare at Chad and said savagely, "So what? Why does it bother you? Just move out if you don't like it here! I don't care! I won’t beg you to stay!"

Chad thought that she lost her temper for no reason again and he was totally stunned this time.

He realized that she was really different from her usual self today.

He thought for a moment and decided not to quarrel with her.

He didn't want her to be mad.

It was unnecessary.

They were middle-aged and their kids were married. He didn't want to hurt her feelings.
