A Complicated Romance Chapter 253
“Shh!” Sophia immediately stopped her daughter, then she glanced at Miss Laura who was clearing the leftovers. “I’ve reminded you many times to be cautious about your words!”John went up to Christina’s room. After knocking on the door, he entered the room. “Christina, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. To be honest, I only found out later…”“Stop!” Christina waved her hand. “I’m not concerned about that. Let’s be honest with each other. I’ve come back to the Garcias’ house as per your request. When are you giving me your assets as you’ve promised? John was stunned. He did not expect Christina to be so forthright. “In a few days.”“In a few days?” Christina asked.“Christina, are you really desperate for money at this moment?” John asked tentatively.“Yes!”“I’ll give you all the money I’ve saved up over these few years, okay?”“What about those paintings? Are you not giving them to me?” Christina asked.“Of course they belong to you, but I’ll only hand them to you after Sere

Christina was shocked to receive a call from Heather who asked her out. She had a gut feeling that nothing good would come out of it, and therefore rejected the old witch outright.With great determination, Heather then went to Christina’s workplace. Having failed to shun Heather, Christina had no choice but to agree to meet her.In the cafe, Heather showed an embarrassed smile. “Christina, the reason why I came looking for you is to clear things up with you.”“Old Madam Larson, we have nothing to do with each other. I don’t think there’s anything we need to discuss.”Heather looked annoyed. “Admittedly, I forced Michael and you to divorce back then. You can choose to hate me, but I hope you won’t hate Michael.”After hearing the corny remark, Christina stood up and was about to leave. “Sorry, I’m too busy to chatter with you. I don’t want to see any of you from the Larson family. I hope you won’t appear in front of me anymore.” Seeing her leave, Heather began to feel anxious. “

“If you can’t remember, I’ll refresh your memory bit by bit. Now, please apologize to her!”“Why should I apologize?” Christina stared coldly at Michael. “I used to be very tolerant only because you were my husband and she was my mother-in-law. Who are both of you to me now? You’re not in a position to make me apologize, are you?”“You have no respect for an elder, so you must apologize!”“Ah! How domineering of you, President Larson!” Matthew strode in from the door.Among them, Christina was most surprised to see Matthew, who was unaware of her relationship with Michael earlier. She did not want to let anyone know about it anyway.His sudden appearance at this moment made Christina jump out of her skin. Earlier, Matthew suspected that Christina was in a relationship with Michael. However, he never thought that Christina was Michael’s ex-wife just because Serena was his fiancée. He felt that even if both the sisters fell in love with the same man at different times, John woul

Watching Matthew getting punched a few times, Christina panicked and grabbed the vase on the table, aiming to smash at Michael. Heather was worried that her son would get hurt, so she pushed Christina a little. The vase missed Michael and fell between both Michael and Matthew. Matthew and Michael were beating each other inextricably. The vase fell and shattered in the middle of both of them, which left them stunned at the same time. They looked at Christina at the same time. Christina looked at Matthew somewhat at a loss. “I...I didn’t mean to hit you!”While speaking, she hurriedly went to assist Matthew. Matthew grinned and said, “Aim properly when you want to hit next time. If not, just stay aside, don’t cause extra trouble!”Christina nodded saying, “Okay!”Michael stood by the side while listening to the conversation between both of them, his heart ached as though it was being torn apart. He was hit first, but Christina only thought about Matthew and even helped Matthew

“He’d finally found a woman of the same social status after all the trouble, and she had a miscarriage because of me. He must have hated me to the core. It’s already merciful of him to make me leave with nothing.” Christina could not help but mock herself.Matthew felt angry on her behalf. “Tell me, who’s the secret lover?”“It’s his current fiance!” “What?” Matthew’s eyes widened all of a sudden. “Serena was his secret lover back then?” “Is that weird? Her mom eventually became a married wife by being a mistress. She only inherited her mother’s blood.” Christina recalled what happened that year. “I hated both her and her mother ever since they caused trouble for my mom. That’s why I lost control and went and hit Serena impulsively upon knowing she got pregnant.” “Impulsive? How is that impulsive? In that case, you would be an idiot if you didn’t hit her!” Matthew was enraged. “John already knew that you had a hard time, and yet he still made Serena marry Michael. He total

“I’m not having another baby because of Michael, I’m doing it just for Travis. The doctor said that the success rate of bone marrow transplant is only 50%, and the rate for cord blood is the highest, so I have no choice.” Matthew was silent for a while. “I have nothing against you having another baby, but when I think of Michael, I just feel so uncomfortable. We have truly let this scumbag off the hook!” “I’m just doing it for my son.” Christina reiterated. Matthew took a deep breath and did not say anything. It was said that maternal love is the greatest love in the world, which was present in Christina. She hated Michael so much, but she was willing to have another child with Michael just for the sake of her son. “Christina, a man who has cheated after marriage usually has a messy lifestyle. Stealing his sperm shouldn’t be tough. When the time comes, I’ll find a coquettish young girl to seduce him, get his sperm and take a nude photo of him, then expose him!” “Will he fall

“What do you plan to do, President Larson?” “Tell Old Master Henderson that his beloved grandson is back with Christina again!”Matthew was looking for an architect on a large scale. On the other hand, Michael was not idle either. While Matthew went to other cities to meet architects, Michael had already hired Wilson Halter, a well-known local architect.Wilson Halter had designed sports arenas for many sports events. With him in the project, the chance of winning would be much higher. Of course, Michael knew everything that Matthew had information about. He would not give up finding Martin Harris. It was better to have two strings to his bow just in case of emergency so that he could secure an unassailable position. Hearing that Michael had hired Wilson Halter, Matthew was not very surprised by it. Wilson and Michael had a good relationship, it was normal for Michael to recruit him as his architect. Christina was worried when she heard this news. “What should we do? Wilson Hal

“Christina, you have to take a break. Don’t wear yourself out.” Christina knew that John was afraid she would feel uncomfortable after hearing Sophia’s words, so he changed the subject. She did not accept it. “Heather and Miss Garcia are as close as a mother and daughter, are you envious of them?” Sophia smiled awkwardly. “I’m more than happy that the Larsons treat Serena well, why should I be angry?”“I’ve lived with the Larsons. I knew that Heather is a noble woman on the surface, but a shrew behind the scenes. She’s vicious and cunning when it comes to treating people. How great it is that Miss Garcia is close with Heather like mother and daughter. People who think alike tend to bond well. Hope you’ll always be so harmonious with each other.” Christina was being honest. She knew Heather very well, and she was also clear about the plans in Sophia and Serena’s hearts. Even if they got bullied by Heather, they would present a false sense of peace, leaving no trace on the surface

Besides, even if the plan failed, intentionally causing a pregnant woman to miscarry was not considered homicide by the country’s criminal law. The punishment was less serious as the behavior would be categorized as an assault occasioning bodily harm.Assault and criminal homicide were two completely different crimes.Rachel agreed to the suggestion.

“Just a little while ago.” Sean came closer. “Christina, we need to talk.”She nodded and followed him to the garden. He helped her to get comfortable on the bench. “Do you believe in fate?”She shook her head, unsure where this was leading. “I didn’t either as I’m a firm believer that hard work always pays off. But now I do.”He looked her in the eye. “I’ve been lost and struggled a lot since that incident, unsure how to face you. After considering this seriously for the past few days, I’ve finally mustered enough courage to meet you again.”A sigh escaped her lips. “Sorry, Sean. It’s all my fault.”“No! It has nothing to do with you, Christina. It’s my fault that my love is not strong enough. I discovered that Suzy is really great after spending the past few months with her. She’s just like you. She’s gentle, kind, pure, and adorable. I realized I’ve fallen in love with her.”This was not what he really thought.He loved Christina since the beginning of time and believed he

“That’s old history. We think Michael is actually pretty good.”“We? Who do you mean?” Christina teased.Ariel and Matthew had been spending a lot of time together lately. Christina went through that herself and understood the passion in her friend’s eyes. This silly girl was actually in love. She could not be happier for her.“Who else? Matthew, of course!” Ariel glared at Christina.“I say whatever’s on my mind, unlike you, who always keep everything to yourself and get stuck in dilemmas. Every good opportunity slips past you because of your indecisiveness!” “How can I not be? I promised to marry him but I’m now trying to convince him to marry someone else. Is this really the best thing for him? Will he be happy?”Ariel questioned after a brief silence, “Christina, let me ask you this. Who do you care for more? Michael or Sean?”Christina asked herself the same question too. She naturally cared more about Michael in the past, but she also started to develop a strong feeling f

The following morning, Serena hurried to the police station to file a report.The police treated this with high importance and warned her to be careful of Darren Cain as he was a vicious gang member who had served over a decade in prison.She became more frightened after hearing that. Immediately, she moved out of that house and rented a place somewhere quiet. As she was terrified, she stayed indoors for the next few days.Much of Christina’s stress was relieved without having to deal with Serena’s pestering.“Christina, John was at the last stage of cancer. It was lucky enough that he lasted until he did. This is his fate, so try not to get too upset.” Francis comforted the dispirited woman. It did not make any difference even though he was not the real Francis. He had long adapted to the identity after assuming it for so many years. Most importantly, Christina was still willing to treat him like a real uncle even after finding out the truth.“Don’t worry, Uncle, I’m fine.”

The harassment continued after the funeral. Serena went around spreading accusations and threatened Christina to give her money. Otherwise, she would report John to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission for private corruption.If reported, the antique art collection would be seized and no one could get it!Christina became more frustrated after hearing that.She never expected John’s leniency toward Serena would cause her such a big problem. Matthew was infuriated by Serena’s unreasonable behavior. He suggested they could shut the woman up by teaching her a lesson. Sean shook his head. “That’s not going to solve the problem. Serena must’ve come prepared if she dares to stir up trouble. This is a lawful society. We can’t do as we wish.”“Are we actually going to pay her off then?” Ariel asked, “I think giving her money isn’t going to put an end to this. She’s certainly going to keep threatening for more!”Michael scoffed. “Why should we give her money? She can go

“I will, Dad, don’t worry. I’ll listen to Sister,” Suzy replied.“Christina.” John grabbed Christina’s hand in his own. “My greatest regret in this life is failing to take good care of you and your mother. I’m going to meet your mother soon. I hope she’ll forgive me!”Tears rolled down Christina’s cheeks. Men would speak kindly in the presence of death. She was unsure if Molly would forgive him, but she had long forgiven her father.He strained to pull Suzy and Christina’s hands closer together as he looked at them with pleading eyes. “The both of you must live peacefully together. Suzy, listen to your sister, and Christina, you must take good care of her on my behalf.”Christina looked at Suzy before nodding quietly. Then, John shifted his glance to Michael.“I’ve done many wrongs in this life. I betrayed my wife and disappointed my daughter. I hope you’ll do better than me. I’ll hand over Christina to you now. I’ll come back to haunt you as a stubborn ghost if you dare to wr

She did not wish to see Christina continuing the fight with her mother.At a loss for what to do, she cried her heart out while in Christina’s arms.Sean felt a heavy feeling in his chest. He knew Christina too well after all the years they spent together. She was a soft-hearted person behind her stubborn facade. Seeing others in sorrow was her greatest weakness.There was no doubt she would choose to forgive Suzy and accept her as her sister.If that was the case, then the marriage between them was destined to fail.
