Serena paused for a moment in her attire and then looked at Cristian.
Cristian's expression was serious; he did not seem to be joking.
Seeing Cristian's attitude, he would not leave unless he saw his son tonight.
Anna was already back, would Cristian be the one to see Manuel as soon as he left the room? Serena's heart beat happier at the thought, and she buttoned her dress, casually arranged her hair with her fingers, then approached Cristian.
-Get dressed while I psychoanalyze Manuel, and you go back to your room and wait for me.
Having said this, without waiting for Cristian to respond, Serena immediately pushed him out of the room.
Serena's gesture made Cristian frown, and on her way out she said, -What mental preparation?
-Are you not worried that I won't recognize you as a father?
Serena pushed Cristian toward the bedroom door before opening it and pushed him out.
-Get out now.
Serena urged him to do so. But Cristian leaned against the ladder and did not move, as if to challenge her patience.
-I told you I'm not leaving, so if you want to throw me out, then push me up here.
Serena said, -Are you crazy?
Serena wanted to be mad, and somewhere between her legs she was still struggling. If it weren't for the fear, she wouldn't have even wanted to make those moves right now.
Cristian looked at her calmly, his eyes seemed to have some sort of complex emotion in them, and then no.
-Serena, I'm not crazy.
Halfway there, Serena heard Cristian speak in a calm voice.
-I said on the way to the airport that I would be the father of your child, and today I will make it happen.
-Whatever you do now, you will not stop me.
Serena froze, not knowing what to say.
It was a little difficult for Serena, was there nothing she could do to stop what was going to happen?
How would Cristian react to seeing Manuel, whom he had hidden for so long, and Manuel meeting his father today?
Serena bit her lower lip, closed her eyes and finally whispered as if agreeing to Cristian: -Go inside and rearrange your clothes.
Cristian knew that Serena had given up her resistance and agreed to the deal, so he followed her into the room.
Once in the room, Cristian straightened his clothes, but Serena pulled out an iron and said to Cristian, "Your shirt is all wrinkled, take it off."
So Cristian immediately took the shirt off and gave it to her.
Serena then used the iron to help Cristian smooth out the wrinkles on his shirt.
Whenever Serena saw Cristian, his clothes were wrinkle-free, both the shirt and the suit jacket, but after what they had just done, Cristian's clothes were already very wrinkled.
Perhaps it was because Serena felt guilty inside, or because she wanted to make Cristian look his best in front of Manuel, so she had to help him iron his clothes.
Serena did so very carefully. She was bent over in the soft light, and a few strands of hair fell over her forehead, making her whole demeanor seem even sweeter.
Looking at Serena this way, Cristian felt as if her heart was filled with absorbent cotton, soft all over.
Once the clothes were ironed, Serena let Cristian put on his shirt and then Serena knotted his tie.
As she did so, Serena was as gentle as a goddess in a painting.
Cristian looked at her in silence, his eyes full of love, and halfway through the tie, Cristian suddenly hugged Serena.
-Serena froze and tried to push him away when he came to his senses. -I had to iron my dress, not crease it again.
Cristian left her.
-I won't let you down.
