Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 65

Christian only faintly smiled, "You are indeed a good man."

"You’re flattering me. I just love a simple life. I don't want many other things."

Christian didn't speak anymore.

After a few moment, they sat in the cafe.

Luke put Rachel on a chair, ordered some desserts and two coffee. After calming himself down, he asked Christian: "Yon don't want to let her go, Mr. Miller?"

Christian leaned on his chair and lazily looked at Rachel who was having eating her dessert, "This is between her and me, and I don't think it has anything to do with you, Mr. Allen."

But in his heart, he was actually thinking, so Isabella likes a home-style man who can look after children and cook?

Apart from looking after children, he could also help her do other houseworks. Wasn't it boring to marry to a man similar as him after divorce?

What exactly did she want?

Love?

She might even not love Luke.

Life?

He didn't think there was anything bad about their past life. He never argued with her. She hated housework, so he rarely asked her to do it. Was this not enough?

"But I'm a lawyer, Mr. Miller, have you ever thought about what troubles you have brought to Isabella?" Luke slightly frowned, whose eyes became somewhat sharp.

Christian was startled, "Troubles?"

"Your mother."

The two words made Christian's heart sink. He understood what they meant instantly.

"I know how to deal with her. Before I solve the problem, I won't tell anyone about it."

"Deal with her?" Luke laughed, "With Isabella's current condition, she simply is unable to raise twi children. How will you handle this? She won't remarry with you, so, except for offering the alimony, you may have to take away the custody from her. Your mother definitely would definitely not accept the first choice. "

"…"

Suddenly, Christian fell into silence.

After a long while, he asked Luke in a low voice, "What do you want me to do then?"

His mother was indeed tough to deal with. He knew her character, and once she found out about the babies were his, she definitely wouldn't compromise.

Luke lightly stirred his coffee, saying indifferently "Children or money, she would definitely choose the former. You can act as if you don’t know anything as before, and stay away from her after the children are born. After the children were born, she wouldn't refuse you to visit them."

This was exactly what Isabella planned on.

Without even thinking for a second, Christian laughed, but his eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of ice, "Luke, are you planning to take it until the end? I'm not interested in legal consulting or whatever. The children are mine, and they only have one father. You should just spend more time on Rachel, and consider the suggestion I mentioned before. That expert is really good."

He pointed at Rachel with his chin, then stood up and said coldly: " Thanks you, but I'll leave now."

Luke's eyes instantly dimmed a bit.
