Virginity in second marriages by Angela novel Chapter 222

"No, I can't. I promised Serena I won't tell!"

Alice tried to retract her hand. Tears in her eyes.

"Promised Serena?" Cristian narrowed his eyes, and there was coldness in his voice, "What are you discussing behind my back?"

Alice suddenly stared at him and said, "No! We don't discuss anything. Cristian, Serena should be here soon. Let me go and act as if nothing happened today."

"Nothing happened?" Cristian's thin lips bent into an anger-filled smile, and he put more strength into his hand, "Do you think I'm a fool? How dare you pretend so embarrassingly in front of me?"

Alice looked at Cristian in amazement, "Embarrassing?"

"That's right." "You'd better tell the truth. I'll give you just one chance."

When he said this, Alice realized she could no longer pretend. She slowly lowered her eyes to look at the ground, trying to calm herself, and then whispered, "I don't want to say this because Serena and I are good friends, and you and she are husband and wife. I have known about this for a long time, but I chose to keep quiet because I don't want to hurt her. Cristian, Serena is a person who gets distressed very easily. I don't want her to be sick again, so could you pretend that nothing happened?"

"Tell me. Who was that woman of that night?" He desperately wanted to know.

He had been asking Luca to find out that person for a long time. All the information he had was false, but now Alice popped up saying she knew about that thing. What a coincidence.

Alice listened to what he said, then bit her lower lip and did not want to say anything more.

"Say it!"

Tears were falling from the corners of Alice's eyes. She couldn't stop herself from crying, "I'm sorry, Cristian. I'm really sorry. I just can't tell you. I can't commit this injustice to Serena. Can you forget what happened today?"

Suddenly footsteps came from outside, then they heard Serena's voice from afar, "Alice, are you here?"

Hearing this, Alice suddenly changed her face. When she tried to move away from Cristian, he let go of her first and then turned his chair to move away from her.

That movement seemed almost automatic. Alice just wanted to pretend, but she never expected that Cristian would be faster than her, which left her dismayed.

Cristian, you obviously cared about Serena!

How was this possible?!!!

A woman like Serena, who was on her second marriage and pregnant with someone else's child, was loved by Cristian?

But if he felt something, why did he have such a bad attitude toward Serena?

Alice could not understand it. The more time passed, the more she did not understand it. Serena called out again, "Alice?"

Alice recovered, "Serena, I'm here."

She quickly wiped away the tears on her face and greeted her with a smile.

Serena regained her composure in the garden. However, she still didn't have the courage to tell her what she saw, so she decided to go back and pretend she didn't know anything about it. Checking what the situation was like, she decided how to act.

When she opened the door, Serena saw Alice, while Cristian went to the window. All the furniture was as usual, as if nothing had happened.

"I didn't know you were here."

"I just got here. I thought you were here. Are you just finished now?"

"Yes."

Alice observed her and noticed nothing strange about her. Then she felt relieved.

Alice didn't want Serena to find out so soon what had happened.
