“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
Christina raised her head with a faint smile. “Thank you, Mayor John!”Seeing that she was always exhibiting this kind of detached attitude, John left the room and went downstairs with a gloomy expression. Sophia came over and handed him a bank card.“Johnny, life must be difficult for Christina. I have some personal savings to spare, you help me hand this to her.” John hesitated for a moment then shook his head. “No need. You don’t have much in your personal savings either, keep it for Serena. I’ll think of ways to help Christina out.” Sophia was just acting anyway and did not have the intention of giving her money. John declining her was just what she wanted. Watching John entering his study room, she turned around and went into Serena’s room. As soon as she saw Sophia, Serena started complaining, “Mom, that witch is way too vicious. She came back to make us unhappy. I can’t stand it anymore. You should think of a way to kick her out!”“What can I do?” Sophia asked. She woul
Whatever they had planned had nothing to do with her. Her kid would not have the slightest involvement with these people. “Christina, you really do have a kid?” The shock in John’s heart intensified. “When did you get married? Who’s the kid’s father? Why didn’t you bring your kid back this time?” “My child’s father is dead. As for whether I’ll bring my kid back or not, do you think my son would be willing to live in this kind of household, Mayor John?” “Christina, I’m the child’s grandfather after all. Why have you never told me about your child?” Christina sneered as she had never intended to acknowledge John as her father, nor had she planned to let Travis know of his grandfather’s existence. “That’s my child, why should I tell you?” “Christina, you…”“It’s getting late now, and I need to rest. You can leave now, Mayor John.”John let out a heavy sigh as he saw the door closing right in front of him. He turned around to go downstairs as Sophia came forward and approache
