Chapter 162: This is a scandal!
At midnight.
Serena took the quilt away and stood up. Walking out of the room barefoot, she went to the study. She found the contract and the card that were thrown by Cristian. When she picked them up, she could not help but cry.
Cristian. That asshole.
She took those things back but he simply threw them away without even looking at them.
He didn’t seem to care when she gave them to him.
The mall and profits didn’t belong to her anyway. If he simply did not want them, then just let it be.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
But Serena could not help but feel uncomfortable when she saw his cold stare.
There was a sob of pain in the darkened study room.
After a while, Serena wiped away her tears, then took the contract and paper back to her room and went to sleep as if nothing had happened.
In the next day, she took time to go to the mall to see Emma.
“Emma, how much is our mall worth?”
Emma squinted her eyes and looked at her, “Why are you asking it so suddenly?”
“Emma, I just want to know the value of the mall. can you tell me?
“Such a big mall. You also saw that the profit of one month is ten million euros in the off-season. What do you think the value of this mall?”
Hearing what she said, Serena could not easily estimate the value.
It seemed that she could not buy it for the time being. Serena bit her lower lip and began to think about how to deal with it.
But Emma clearly expressed her thoughts and said, “You want to buy the mall, don’t you?”
Hearing this, the smile on Serena’s lips expressed her embarrassment, “It’s ridiculous, isn’t it? “I don’t know either… for what reason I have this kind of idea. ”
“No.” Emma smiled slightly and said, “If you say that, you are a very thoughtful girl. You don’t just want to rely on Cristian and I support you.”
Serena’s dark eyes lit up, and she looked at her with joy.
“Do you really support me? But… You also said that the value of this mall is immeasurable, I… I can’t afford it. ”
“I don’t think you have to buy it. Don’t be silly. You can calculate the percentage of the profit next month and then return it to Cristian. Afterwards you take what is left over. Do you think it is so easy to run a shopping center? You have to be rewarded when you put your effort on it and Cristian won’t lose money.”
Having said that to Serena, Emma could only sigh.
Emma didn’t know what the relationship between Cristian and Serena was like. It was obvious that Serena was very uneasy when she took his things and always wanted to make it clear with him. If that was the case, then it was bad for Cristian.
She hadn’t had a chance to see Cristian recently, so she didn’t know what the situation was.
“Really?” Serena was bewildered.
“Sure, but you need to improve the profit of the mall. Think of a way.”
Serena, who overcome it with enthusiasm, nodded, “Okay!”
After that, Serena signed the salary list and then returned to the company to work. She studied how to do business during meals and breaks. And she even purchased books about that.
In addition to work and rest, she studied every day.
It can be said that she was completely immersed in it.
Having this motivation to move forward, Serena found that she had less time for woolgathering. She always thought about the things with Leonardo and the relationship between her and Cristian.
But when she had more important things to do, she found that these things could not stop her.
Only in her free time or in the middle of the night did Serena think about her unresolved issues.
But… She still did not know how to solve them.
However, it seemed that Alice had really done something wrong because she brought her gifts in every couple of days. In just over a week, she had already received four gifts from Alice….
Until today, Alice had brought more things again and Serena could take no more.
“Alice, what’s been happening lately? You always bring me presents.”
Alice waved her hand awkwardly after hearing the words, “Haven’t I already told you? I also have one just like yours. We are best friends. Isn’t it okay for us to have the same thing? ”
“It’s not wrong, but these things cost too much. You don’t have to buy everything for me. Don’t do it in the future.”
Alice stopped talking, and Serena was silent for a while and asked her, “Alice, do you think you have let me down?”
Saying this, Alice raised her head fearfully, looking at her with a tone of panic, “Serena, why do you think so?”
“If you don’t think you disappoint me, why do you send me gifts so often? Actually… “She paused, “For that matter, you didn’t disappoint me, because… This was not what we expected. ”
Before starting the investigation, Serena had not expected that the man was Leonardo.
Although she did not believed it yet.
Alice raised her eyes to look at her.
“Serena, don’t you believe me?”
Hearing this, Serena paused, then shook her head, “I believe you, but… I can’t accept it.”
Alice looked at her calmly.
“So… Do you like Cristian?”
Did she like Cristian? Did she like him? If Alice asked this question a month ago, she would answer her for sure that she didn’t like him.
But now… She was conflicted too.
Thinking about this, Serena smiled faintly, “I don’t like him.”
The expression in Alice’s eyes darkened a bit, “Serena, you’ve changed.”
“Changed?”
“I have asked you this question before, and your answer was very firm, not as hesitant as you are now.”
Serena:”… Really?”
She didn’t know either.
She forgot it.
Alice lowered her eyes and felt down for some reason. Then her eyes fell on Serena’s abdomen after a while.
“So you… Aren’t you going to clear this up with Leonardo? ”
Serena did not paid attention to Alice’s emotions, because she too was completely immersed in her own thoughts.
“Right now I’m not sure, but… I don’t think he will accept it. Besides, once I say this to him, it will definitely be a scandal for the Ferrari family! ”
“So what?” Alice suddenly got excited, “No matter how scandalous it is, he was that man of that night. He is the father of the baby in your belly! Don’t you want to find the biological father of your child? Or do you like Cristian? Do you want Cristian, the uncle, to be the father of the child?”
These words were a blow to Serena.
She stared at Alice uncomprehendingly, feeling that she had struck a hard blow.
Yes, how could she… Let Cristian recognize the baby in her belly?
