Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 20

After signing his name, Christian calmly picked up his jacket and left.

He didn't even say a word from start to end.

Isabella could no longer hold back and cried bitterly in Diana’s embrace.

If she wanted to keep the child, she would have to divorce. If she was still his wife, with only Christian’s a word, the child may be aborted, so she planned a show with Luke and her mom to force him to divorce.

But when he really signed his name on the settlement, Isabella felt so uncomfortable that all her organs was seemingly in a mess.

Christian didn't know how he got down the stairs. On his way home, he met someone who was smoking. He walked over and said: "Please sell me your lighter and cigarettes."

Seeing that it was a hundred dollars, the person immediately gave his cigarette case and lighter to Christian.

Christian then lit one.

He didn't like its smell and may only smoke one when he had to in business. Now, however, he felt so empty that he wanted to fill his heart with something.

Then he found the platinum ring on his finger when he raised his hand, and he pulled a velvet box out of his pocket.

When he was in Singapore, he passed by a jewelry store which reminded him of the diamond ring he bought for Isabella when they got married. She had been wearing it all the time.

Maybe he was trying to make up for her, Christian went into the store and customized a pair of rings. He got them the second day, which were all platinum. He put on his after getting it, and sent another one home in case of losing it on trip.

He was intended to give Isabella a pleasant surprise, but he never expected that before he could give out the ring, Isabella not only returned her ring, bur also gave him such a bigger 'surprise'!
