A Complicated Romance Chapter 617
“Could it be Rachel’s doing?” Matthew asked.“Probably not.”“Well, it’s hard to say. She has long since started to find fault with Christina, and she probably still behaves in the same manner. You’d better check her out.”Sean frowned upon hanging up the phone. Could it be Rachel? Deep in his heart, he refused to believe that it was Rachel’s doing. However, as Sean recollected that she tricked Christina previously, he had second thoughts about it. In this case, he had to look into the incident.In addition to some dishes and wine, he only had a bowl of hamburger soup and half a glass of water that night. Since there was definitely nothing wrong with the water, he was only having doubts about the hamburger soup at that moment.Having asked the kitchen servants previously, Sean found out that he was not the only one who drank the hamburger soup as Rachel too did. Therefore, he instinctively believed that the soup was not the cause. Rather, it was him who had mistaken Jade for Chris

Sean did not return home for lunch at noon. After Rachel was done accompanying Old Madam Young for lunch, she returned to her room while Old Madam Young took a nap. She held her phone to dial a number. After that, she went downstairs and sat at the gazebo in the garden. A young man in a black shirt walked toward her shortly afterward. Handing a cardboard box to Rachel, he said, “Eldest Miss, this is what you want.” Rachel opened the box immediately upon taking it. She then nervously asked, “Are you sure this works, Shane?”A bright smile broke through Shane’s face. “Don’t worry, Eldest Miss. I’ve got someone to try it. It’s perfectly alright.”Rachel nodded contentedly. “Great. I’ll reward you later.”“You’re too kind, Eldest Miss. It’s my honor to be able to serve you.” Shane looked at Rachel enthusiastically. “Feel free to call me if you have any trouble in the future. I’ll definitely solve it for you.”“Okay. Thank you. You may leave now!” Rachel pretended as if she did not

Just as Rachel was rejoicing over the success of her plan, Sean appeared all of a sudden. “Rachel, I didn’t expect that you’d do such a thing!”“What did I do, Brother?” Rachel showed an innocent look.“Shane has told me everything. Don’t you dare deny it!” Sean tossed a box of drugs onto the floor.“Brother, it was Shane who accused me. Why would I do such a thing?” In a panic, Rachel lay the blame on Shane instead. “Shane has always had feelings for me. He even harassed me two days ago. I gave him a piece of my mind, so he began to hold a grudge against me deep down.”Sean would have believed her if this happened earlier. Since he had cleared things up, he knew that she also spontaneously asked Shane to help out with the earlier incident where Heather tried to take Travis away.“Rachel, I can’t believe that you had the intention of tricking me. Why on earth did you do this?”She could not hide the truth anymore, so she decided to come clean with him. “Yes, I did it! I don’t wan

“My child and I are fine, Old Madam Larson. Just focus on getting well. You don’t have to worry about us.”As soon as Heather heard Christina address her as Old Madam Larson, she was so touched that her tears almost fell. “Christina, I was wrong back then. I feel sorry for you and your child…”“Well, don’t talk about it anymore.” Christina interrupted her speech. “It’s all in the past.”“Alright. I’ll stop talking about it. It’s a relief to know that you and your child are safe.”Christina was quite touched. What a drastic change in Heather’s attitude after she regained her consciousness.No wonder they said that one would see things differently after he or she cheated death. Indeed, Heather had changed after having a narrow escape from death.Christina smiled at Heather. “You should focus on nursing your body back to health. This way, Michael can concentrate on his work as well.”Heather nodded. She used to be disgusted with Christina, but now she was attracted by her in every

“Michael, quickly deal with those b*tches. Once you’re done dealing with them, you’ll have time to accompany Christina and your son.”Michael nodded. “I’m already dealing with them. Don’t worry, none of them will be able to get away with it.”Later, he told Heather the cases where Judy went blind and came into conflict with her son. Heather blew off steam upon hearing that. “That evil woman better die!”“There’s also going to be a good show soon as Sophia has started to keep an eye on Benedict. His good days are numbered. Sophia, in her typically cruel manner, will make Judy and Benedict fight each other. We can just sit back and watch the show.”“So how are you planning to deal with Winona?” Heather naturally turned her attention to Winona’s affair since Judy would no longer be able to do her harm. “Don’t worry. The person who’s going to deal with Winona is already in place, and Winona will be too busy to bother with other stuff.”“What about Serena? That little b*tch is very

Sophia was Tommy’s cousin. Nicknamed Nightingale, she was very close with the hooligans in Hoover Alley. It was because Sophia cared for Tommy that he managed to gain a foothold here.Of course, he would not dare to betray Sophia. Therefore, he sent Winona’s child back to her, telling her that he had swapped the children.Winona held a grudge toward Sophia deep down. She asked Tommy to send the child away without bothering to take a glance at the child. Tommy was so cruel that he put the child in front of the entrance of an orphanage.From the day the child was born, Tommy already knew that the child was not his but John’s.

Little did he know that Sophia could be so calculating and that Winona could be so cruel.If what Tommy said was true, Suzy would be John’s daughter and also

There was no place for Winona in Henry’s heart. Winona was clinging on to Henry stubbornly. She wanted to be together with him no matter what. Henry would normally act as if he could not see Winona. He had never cared about what Winona did as well. After Matthew told him about Winona’s evil deeds on the phone, Henry began to despise her even more. Even if Winona was Molly’s only sister, Henry would never forgive Winona. He heard that Molly’s death was caused by Winona and Sophia. Henry’s first thought was to strangle the ungrateful scumbag until she dies. “Michael has his own plans to deal with Winona. You need to leave here immediately. It was also part of that scumbag’s plan to stay by your side throughout these years. She has been living a good life by your side. You couldn’t possibly allow her to live a happy life, right?” “I have nothing to do with her throughout these years. Even if I leave, it won’t be a threat to her at all.” Henry could not understand. “You don’t u

”Jess, you’ve suffered so much! I’m so sorry!” Henry said affectionately. Winona almost screamed as a result. That was not how it was supposed to be? How could this happen? Matthew looked at Winona coldly. “My mother hasn’t seen my father for so many years. They have so much to tell each other. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to remain here?” He wanted to chase her away. Winona tried to control her anger. “Why should I go? This is my house.” “You’ve got it all wrong, Doctor Harris!” Matthew sneered. “My father used his own money to buy this house. It seems as if you have nothing to do with it, right?” “I…” Winona’s face reddened. This house indeed belonged to Henry. She had nothing to do with it. She looked at Henry to ask for help. However, Henry would not even spare her another glance. He then went to talk with Jess in his sculpting room. “Do you want me to throw you out of here, or do you want to leave on your own?” Matthew looked at Winona coldly. Winona was then chase

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. Scarface was indeed a ruthless man. He came up with this vicious revenge that would put Christina in pain forever.Upon agreeing on the details of the plan, Scarface and his friends from the streets proceeded to kidnap Christina. Rachel and Serena were told to sit tight and wait for the good news.Scarface had a well-thought-out plan and got his hands on Christina before long.

Serena lost everything. She had no choice but to work as a bargirl to survive.Scarface was the person in charge of the bar she worked at. The ruthless man had pretty much slept with every woman who worked at his place. Naturally, Serena could not escape from that fate either.Serena was different from other bargirls.

“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

Suzy felt guilt-ridden and knew she was not in the position to demand anything from Christina. However, her mother had gone mad. 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. Christina would reject him for the sake of the child in her sister’s belly.At this moment, he was thinking of how everything was falling apart at this moment even after he had consistently pursued her all these years. He stood there in a daze for a long time before finally heaving a sigh.Perhaps this was their destiny. Suzy cried for a
