Her Second Marriage With Mr. Cristian

Chapter 126 Emergency



For the scene in front of him looked like that of a cook in a small kitchen watching her guests eat contentedly and happily

Clare thought there was something strange about this scene.

What on earth was going on?

“Sorry, I’m late.” A cold male voice rang out.

Chiara and Serena were a bit stunned and turned toward the man from whom the voice came.

Dressed in a black suit, Cristian entered the room and was pushed by Luca.

Seeing Cristian, Serena widened her eyes in an expression of surprise. Why had he suddenly come there?

Shouldn’t he be in the company right now? Besides, this task had been given to her by him.

Was something wrong with that?

At the thought of what had happened for the last two times, Serena immediately got up and walked toward him tremblingly. The gaze of this little woman caused Matteo, who was not at all upset, to raise his cold eyes looking at Serena.

Then, following Serena’s figure, Matteo looked at Cristian’s dark eyes.

Cristian: “…”

Thinking about the results of the investigation, a thought flashed through Matteo’s head.

No one knew what he was thinking. Matteo’s eyes were investigating the situation.

Chiara suddenly stood up, “Mr. Ferrari, if I had known you were coming, I would have…”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Cristian replied, “Don’t be so nice. I just came to see how my assistant is doing.”

His voice was neither warm nor cold. He did not give off any emotion.

Chiara looked at Serena curiously. Serena stopped in front of Cristian and said in a low voice, “Why are you here?”

The surprised expression on her face looked like that of a child. Cristian narrowed his eyes. How had he not noticed this woman’s so beautiful side before?

Now, her expression, her small movements and her small eyes, make Cristian feel a pleasant sensation.

And it was more and more pleasing to the eyes as time went by.

Shit.

Was it just sexual attraction? No!

Thinking about it, Cristian was inexplicably annoyed and replied in a tone of voice that only two of them could hear, “I came to see if you were flirting with a man behind my back.”

Serena: “…”

For a moment, the expression on her face stiffened.

Cristian, with a smile on his face, pushed his wheelchair directly to the table, “You don’t mind if I join you?”

Matteo put down his knife and fork, his face serious.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Ferrari.”

Cristian raised his lips, “It’s rare to meet you.”

Serena had still maintained her poise. When she heard them talking, she looked at them.

Serena did not react for a long time. Only Matteo had food on his plate, and she actually forgot about herself and Chiara.

“Sorry, I’ll call the waiter to order!”

After the waiter came, Serena asked what the others wanted and ordered for everyone and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Cristian suddenly suggested, “The atmosphere is so good. Don’t you want a drink?”

Chiara was about to say that Matteo did not drink much, but Matteo unexpectedly agreed, “Yes.”

So before the dishes arrived, two bottles of wine were served.

When Serena saw the bottle of wine, her face changed slightly. Taking advantage of the fact that they were drinking, she went to the cashier and asked the price of the wine. After knowing the price of the wine, Serena was not calm at all.

That was a famous restaurant in the Northern City. Only the most famous chefs cooked there. The price of the dishes was very expensive, not to mention the wines.

Generally, ordinary people did not go to eat there. Luxury restaurants were usually used as meeting places for business purposes. However, because the food in that restaurant was made by famous chefs, many people also came here just to eat.

But most of them were wealthy people.

And Serena was obviously not.

Although the head of the financial department had requested a bigger budget for her, it might not be enough to pay for the meal.

Serena looked at them and went to the bathroom with her cell phone.

There was no one else in the women’s bathroom. Serena took the cell phone to call Alice.

Alice was surprised when she received her call, “Why aren’t you at work and you called me at this time? Do you want to invite me to lunch?”

Serena had no time to joke with her.

“Alice, it’s an emergency. Lend me some money!”

Alice: “…. What’s going on?”

Serena: “It’s a long story, but now I absolutely need money.”

“Well, how much do you need? I’ll send it to you right away.” Alice promised her.

Because the two have known each other for so many years, ever since she joined the Giordano family, she had always thought of ways to compensate Serena. She always told Serena that she was willing to help her, but Serena never once asked her for money, let alone asked her for help.

Even in the search for the unfamiliar man, Alice had offered to help her find him.

Therefore Serena asked her to borrow money this time. Alice was really happy, because at least they had talked a little. Alice also found an opportunity to make amends for her. She felt very happy.

So she gave the money to Serena. When Serena received the message, she gratefully said, “Thank you.”

Alice asked, “You didn’t tell me what the money is for? Even if it’s a long story, at least say it.”

Talking about this, Serena smiled, “It’s really a long story. Didn’t I tell you that I wanted to invite your brother to dinner?”

After hearing that, Alice nodded and said, “Yes, yes. What’s the problem?”

“Cristian and Matteo are talking about work. I was lucky to have your brother here today.”

“What are you talking about?”

As soon as Serena finished talking, Alice was stunned. Serena heard something drop from the other end of the phone. Whereupon she asked, “What’s going on?”

“You and my brother… have you met?” Alice’s voice sounded very agitated.

Thinking back, Serena quickly explained, “Don’t worry. I didn’t disturb your brother’s work. We had the opportunity to meet precisely because we talked about work.”

“Where are you now?” Alice asked suddenly.

“What?”

“Tell me, are you eating? In which restaurant?” Alice had not noticed that her voice was trembling.

Serena: “… In that famous restaurant in North City…”

Before she finished speaking, Alice hung up the phone, “Wait for me, I’ll be right there!”
