Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 196

Hanging up, Isabella pondered for a few seconds before suddenly staring at Christian with curiosity.

After a long while, she walked to his side, and looked down at his handsome face from above, "Christian, do you know what Shawn's goal is?"

Christian smiled faintly, "What do you mean?"

Isabella frowned, "You know what I mean."

She tilted her head and suddenly stopped talking. After a few seconds, she raised his eyebrows in amusement and smiled complacently. "Could it be …he cast his eyes on me? You guys are usually very different in taste, too. Maybe he does have other intentions for me. "

Christian's smile faded as he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. He sneered coldly, "Stop dreaming. He doesn't like you."

Isabella wasn't the least bit angry, but her eyes suddenly narrowed and looked straight at him. "You indeed know everything."

"…"

Christian choked, this little girl dared to probe him.

After that, he raised his hand and gently caressed her head, confessing helplessly, "I know a little about it. I'm guessing that he has his eyes on you because of me."

"…"

Isabella's expression slowly changed, "Because of you?"

Her mind buzzed slightly.

When Shawn first arrived in Brighton, he held a party and invited so many local entrepreneurs, including Benton Technology. She had participated in it by chance and met with him once.

Could it be … The reason he came to Brighton from the very beginning was just because of her? Had he already found out the relationship between her and Christian long ago?

She suddenly remembered one time when he invited both she and Christian over for dinner. Was he trying to test him at that time?

The more she thought about it, the more terrified she felt Shawn was.

Isabella suddenly raised her eyes to look at Christian, "He knew that you were married, which was why he did a detailed investigation on you. Then he find out about me?"

Christian reached out his hand and pinched her cheek, explaining with a smile, "Well, this is very possible. If he wants to figure out me, he naturally has to know my life thoroughly. As long as he works hard, it would be quite simple to find you, wouldn't it?"

Isabella frowned. She thought deeply for a few seconds but felt that it was strange, "But we are already divorced, why did he come to me?"

Hearing this, Christian smiled and looked at her with a deeper gaze. "Only a man will understand a man's heart. In his eyes, you are still useful."

Isabella blinked her eyes, her tone sounding very puzzled, "What's the use? Even if we weren't divorced, could it be that he was trying to seduce me by being so attentive to me? I don't think he would be bothered to do such a disgusting thing. "

Although it Shawn now look like a little sinister, she felt that he couldn't seduce someone's wife for the sake of business competition. He would ruin his reputation for doing that, so even if he wanted to use this tactic, he could just find some good-looking subordinate.

"…"

As this logic being told by Isabella with such a casual tone, Christian felt a little uncomfortable and his face darkened a bit. 

Isabella still had some questions she wanted to ask him. But then she saw Christian's somewhat strange expression, causing her to pause, "You, why are you looking at me with such an expression? Did I say anything wrong? "

"You've said nothing wrong. Now that you know what he's thinking, will you still stay close him?" Christian asked. 

Shawn Simons, can almost be said to as a perfect man. For women, he is an irresistible temptation. He can have any woman without even trying to seduce them.
