Serena blinked and her long eyelashes flickered.
"Why didn't you say earlier that you knew I would see Leonardo that day? I wasn't going to hide it from you!"
He bit his lip, feeling great regret.
She wondered why he was so angry, and when she asked herself, her expression and her look became strange-she cared about him, that's why she wanted to rush to the party.
She did not expect... That all those things would happen later.
"You didn't want to hide it from me?" Cristian's mocking look fell on her face, "You are such a liar. What did you tell me before you went out? That you had a date with Anna? Don't take back what you said. And you also told Luca that you would get to the party on time. What happened instead? You didn't show up all night!"
"That's what I did!" Serena defended herself, "I really did go to the party that night, but I had an accident and arrived late. And I saw Anna that night. Leonardo was there too, but Anna was there! I didn't lie to you!"
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
Serena tried to defend herself the best she could as Cristian's voice grew louder and louder.
Serena was stunned by that high-pitched voice. She stared at him for a long time and then lowered her gaze weakly, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have hidden it from you.... I didn't want to hide it from you, but... I was afraid you would misunderstand."
Leonardo's relationship with his brother was very sensitive, so he did not dare mention that name in front of Cristian.
"What a good motivation." Cristian laughed at her.
Serena raised her head and looked at him, "I did not handle the situation well, I apologize to you, Cristian.... I..."
But he could not say the last sentence.
Serena felt distressed, took a deep breath and looked at him quietly.
His eyes were cold, without a trace of warmth, almost as cold as his heart.
Facing Cristian, Serena felt all her courage fade away. She was a little frightened. If-if he didn't speak now, could it be that-he would have even less courage to speak to him in the future?
Thinking of this, Serena gritted her teeth and said, "Cristian, we..."
"We will divorce."
Cristian suddenly interrupted her.
All that remained was astonishment.
"You were given the contract. Wasn't that what you wanted? Now do whatever you want, take the contract and leave. You can be with whoever you want. It has nothing to do with me."
Serena stared at him, stunned.
"Are you serious? Not only are you angry with me, but...? Do you really want to divorce me?"
"Do you think I'm joking?"
Serena was speechless, with a knot in her throat, as if something had blocked her heart.
"Go away, I'm not for you. Serena, you were married instead of your sister, right? Now you are free."
You are free.
Go away, I am not for you.
These words cut Serena's heart like a knife.
He said very calmly, but it was hard for her to accept it.
After Cristian finished speaking, he turned to leave.
Serena did not know where his courage came from, but suddenly she stood up and jumped off the couch to block him, "You want to kick me out. Don't you like me at all? Cristian, who was it who had told me that I could trust him, and now you kick me out, how can I believe what you say?"
