Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 26

Suddenly, the car suddenly stopped. Isabella sat up and looked outside, then she heard Christian in front of her said, "Get off."

"Have we arrived the hotel?"

Without saying anything, Christian just unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car.

Knowing what kind of person he was, Isabella didn't consider or ask too much. She just opened the car door and got off.

There was a restaurant in front of her.

The man looked as if he was about to enter it. Isabella was stunned and blurted out, "I've already had dinner."

He glanced at her strangely. "But I haven't yet."

Isabella immediately smiled awkwardly, "Then I'll wait for you in the car. You can go in."

Christian stood still, looked at her as he smiled deeply, "Isabella, we divorced in a peace way, didn't we? I don't owe you, neither do you. Do you have to hide from me like that?"

"..."

Isabella's expression stiffened even more. Her fingers clenched unconsciously and there was a trace of guilt in her eyes. She then said, "No, I'm not hiding. I just don't want to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings."

"Misunderstandings?" The man laughed in a low voice. His magnetic voice sounded pleasant and deep, "Are you afraid that to Luke will misunderstand? Haven’t he already known that you were with me now? Would we even have an affair just by eating a simple dinner? And what do you think I can do to a pregnant woman?"

With her lips pursed tightly, Isabela was unable to refute his words.

The man then walked straight into the restaurant.

And Isabella could only follow.

Well, it was just a meal!

He was right. Why did she act as if she had a guilty conscience since she didn’t owe him anything?

Sitting by the table, Isabella was slightly shocked as she watched the man communicate fluently with the waiter.

She hadn’t known that he was so good at Japanese.

But thinking that he was the CEO of the Polygon Group, she felt it was nothing strange.

Running a large company at such a young age was never easy. It was just ironic that she knew nothing about him when they were still married, but after the divorce, these things were exposed to her inexplicably.

It seemed that she shouldn’t be with him from the very beginning.

After Christian had ordered his dishes, he turned back and saw her staring at him in a daze. He asked blandly, "What do you like?"

Isabella suddenly came back to herself, "Me? Uh, I’m okay. I ate a lot in the afternoon, so I'm not so hungry now."

Christian then ordered her a vegetable porridge.

When the porridge was placed in front of Isabella, she frowned: "I already said that I'm not hungry. Why you still ordered me this?"

Without raising his head, Christian picked up the tableware and said, "I don't have to abuse a pregnant woman, whether you’re my ex-wife or not. Have some. If you’re not into the taste, then don't."

Knowing that pregnant women tended to be very picky, he didn't force her to eat. He only ordered the one with light taste in case she may vomit.

Isabella didn't know what to say. Christian had a very calm tone of voice from the start to end, neither cold nor hot. Maybe he was just trying to take care of a pregnant woman, and it would be too unreasonable if she continued to put on expression.

Looking at the tasteful porridge in front of her, Isabella did not say another word. Instead, she picked up the spoon and started eating.
