Chapter 148 She Enjoyed Independence And Financial Freedom
Last Updated:
2022-02-04 20:00:40Crista crawled out of bed and draped a night robe. "Mr. Ding, you have nothing to worry about. I get paid to work so I will fulfil my obligations.” What did he think of her? She was an independent woman who earned her own living!
"That's fine," William nodded. Leaving her alone at home to her own devices could spell trouble. She might as well accompany him to the office.
After freshening herself up, she sat alone at the dining table for breakfast. William was sipping on some strong coffee. "I've decided to go to the airport and send Ms. Yao off this afternoon," she said softly. She believed it was necessary to inform him in advance of her decision so that he would be aware. There was then no need to inform Carla.
Taking a sip of his coffee, William told her, "Wait for me in the office. I'll go along with you." Since Carsie was returning to Italy, William needed to see her off.
Crista almost choked on her milk when she heard those words. Had she said s

As soon as it was lunch break, the secretary took Crista to the ground floor. "Mr. Ho, what's going on?" Mr. Ho shook his head. "Mr. Clark told me to escort you downstairs. He said that you had to wait here for a while." Crista waited in the company hall with Mr. Ho by her side. About five minutes later, William came in and strode towards her. "Let's go! Ms. Yao is waiting for us in the car. Let's have lunch and then go to the airport together." Worried that Crista would refuse him, he took the liberty to bring Carsie with him, so that he could have lunch with her. When she heard that Carsie would have lunch with them, she didn't object at all. "Mr. Ding, please take good care of Chica," said Carsie. She had faith in both Crista and William. He nodded in response. "Don't worry, Ms. Yao. I also attach great importance to this coming fashion season. I hope you can come by when the time comes." "Certainly." Carsie clinked her glass with William's, and exchanged

Lewis was anxious as he asked Carla, "Do you know where Chica is?" He understood what Carla was saying. The more hurt Crista was, the more afraid of coming back to this villa she would be. And she would feel the heartache multifold if she returned here. Carla shook her head. "I can't tell you where she is because I don't know either." She couldn't tell him. If William came to know that she had told Lewis, he would hate her for the rest of eternity. She was still the same as before, always turning a blind eye to the women around William. What else could she do when she knew William so well? Lucas grasped Carla's hand. "Are you lying to me?" he said angrily. "Are you helping William? Do you want William to be with Chica? In that case, you won't get what you want either." Lewis also understood Carla. If a woman loved a man, she wouldn't let other women lay claim to him. Crista might be a special case, but she didn't belong to William in the first place. Carla sh

As she looked at Lewis, Crista asked, "Why did you come to see me all of a sudden? Did something happen?" "I'm just worried about you. You moved to another place out of the blue, so I went to the Ding family villa to see if you were there. I'm aware that you wouldn't want to go back there, but you'll be with William, won't you?" This was what worried him the most. Besides, he could tell from William’s eyes that no matter what happened, the only man who could stand at Crista's side was William. It could never be him. Crista shook her head. "Lewis, you don't understand. There are some things that I have to do by myself." "What are you planning to do? Are you getting back together with him? " Was it because what he had done for her paled in comparison to William's efforts? "Lewis, you misunderstand me. I don't want anything to do with him. Didn't you say that you’d trust me?" Crista knew that Lewis might have some misunderstandings due to t

As soon as William came back, the servant brought him a cup of coffee. And when she was about to leave, he stopped her. "Dolores, get a cup of milk for Chica." However, shook her head in refusal. "No, thanks. I don't want one.” "Have a glass of milk before you go to bed. Go to sleep early. You have work tomorrow." William was implying that she was almost late for work today, so she should be earlier tomorrow. However, she wasn't sleepy yet. If she were sleepy, she would've locked the door and gone to sleep. Her mind was a mess as she thought about Lewis matter. She thought that she might've made the wrong decision. If she hadn’t returned that time, things wouldn't have turned out like this. "What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about Lewis?" William asked calmly, noticing that she was staring blankly into space again. ’What on earth is on her mind? Glancing back at him, Crista asked, "How can I miss him? Now that you're here with me, do I reall

When Chery woke up, she saw Lewis standing outside the ward through the glass window. Perhaps it was because he knew that she was pregnant, he opted to smoke outside. She touched her belly and propped herself up. At the same time, a nurse on duty entered the room. "Chery Shen, you’re not allowed to move yet. You just had an accident, almost causing a miscarriage, so you need to rest." ’'I'm doing fine.” Chery turned her gaze towards the window, causing the nurse to look as well. "I'll tell your husband to come in.” Lewis happened to notice that she had woken up, so before the nurse could tell him to go inside, he had already thrown away his cigarette and walked in. "Chery, are you feeling better now?" He looked at her with worried eyes. Chery nodded. "I'm okay. I just want to rest some more. I think I'll get better after a few more days of rest. Fortunately, nothing bad happened to the baby.” Upon seeing how hopeful and excited she was w

The moment Crista arrived at the restaurant, she noticed that Adrian was already waiting for her. "Uncle Adrian, have you been waiting for a long time?" "It's fine. I don't have anything better to do today. I suddenly thought of you, so I decided to give you a call. Did I interrupt your work?" He smiled at her and poured her a glass of water. "Not really." Crista shook her head. In all honesty, she actually needed to relax. She had almost finished her design, so she didn't have to worry about it that much. "I heard that the Ding Group will hold a fashion show next month. You're their designer, right? Then you must be very busy!" Although Adrian barely cared about the company's dealings, he was still keen on what was happening around him. Moreover, the Ding Group had invited numerous celebrities and ladies to the fashion show. Even Maris and Sally received an invitation. It wasn't surprising that he knew about it. Crista took a sip of water

William didn't respond. He didn't give a damn about what people thought of him and Crista. He was the only person who had a say in his personal matters. "William, you should know that Nimpha is a woman who do things with a dear purpose. Besides..." Carla paused. She abhorred the idea of seeing William so mesmerized by Nimpha and listening to her words. "Carla, I thought you knew me well," he said lightly. When he was with Crista in the past, Carla always remembered her place and knew how to behave. But now, she intervened in his decisions and listened to rumors and hearsays. Hearing his response put her mind at ease. If she really knew him well, she should know what kind of person he was by now. And even if he wanted a woman, he'd be able to handle it well. He would never let himself be the topic of rumors. Just like it was in Crista’s case, he was indifferent to her within the premises of the company. However, he allowed her to live in his apartment

"I need some time to think about it" William knew that Anpu only wanted to benefit from his supply and distribution channels. But he wasn't going to negotiate with him until he was certain of what happened to Crista. Surely, Lewis had to be present during the negotiation, which was the only way to make her understand tire whole matter. She shouldn’t blame him for his ploys because he was doing it all for her sake. Two years ago, no matter what kind of suffering Anpu put Crista through, William would inflict twice the pain on him. He had no connection to Anpu for a long time. This time, perhaps, he could make an exception. Martin nodded. "I see. Boss, I’ve had the drug delivered to you. You'll get the package within two days.” That drug was developed two years ago. But for a weak woman like Crista, she must've gone through so much hell to become who she was today. "Got it. You can take a break now. Call me if anything notable happens." Afte

You Are Not The Baby's Father Lewis sighed as he made Crista sit down on the sofa. "Will you feel bored staying at home?" Looking at him, Crista hesitated for a while before she shook her head. "Aren't you afraid that I might run away?" "Yes, I am." Lewis looked at her. He was obviously anxious. The only thing that scared him was Crista leaving him. "Then I won’t go out. I am afraid that I won't be able to control myself." Even though Crista knew that William had died, she still wanted to see him. She loved him so much, but she could not even see him one last time. "He is dead. Why are you so stubborn? Even if you did go back, what can you do now?” Lewis wondered why she was being so stubborn about returning to William. Did it mean that he would never get her love even though William had died? Would she never show him any mercy at all? "Then why do you have to do that? You can just leave me alone." Crista didn't want him to interfere her affair! He had lied to her many times n

There Was Still No News About Her Lewis walked over to Crista and saw her in a daze. "What's wrong, Chica? Do you feel sick?" Her face had turned paler, which worried him. Looking at him, Crista remained silent. She didn't stop him when he put his coat on her shoulder and helped her sit on the bed. "If you don't feel good, then you'd better take rest. Don't you remember that the doctor asked you to rest in bed for the first three months?" Lewis felt like he was talking to himself. Was she even listening to him? Crista reached out and touched her belly. Only when she felt the child in her belly would she feel relieved. Leaning against the bed, Crista took a glance at the newspaper that was on the bedside table. She had not thrown it away yet. Perhaps she was using it to remind herself that she should not forget William. Lewis sat next to her and talked to her, but Crista ignored him and fell asleep. A bitter smile appeared on Lewis' lips. He could talk for hours, but she would sti

Will You Be With Me Then, Lewis made Crista sit up and lean against a cushion. "Have some congee first, Chica. You haven't eaten properly for a few days. Or do you want to eat something else? I can ask Sara to make it for you." Crista had no appetite for the food in front of her, but still, she slowly ate as Lewis fed her until the congee was finished. "Chica, you need to take good care of yourself. You need to start eating well because your baby needs the nutrition." Lewis wiped her mouth with a tissue. "My baby," Crista murmured. "I still have a baby." "Yes, Chica. You still have your baby. That’s why you have to take good care of yourself so you won’t hurt your child." Lewis looked at her. Perhaps the thought of her child could snap her out of her lethargy and give her a reason to move on. "My baby, what are we going to do? It’s all my fault that you will never see your daddy. It’s all Mommy's fault, "Crist

He Died To Save Her Crista shook her head. "No way! I want William. He is the father of my child, and he has a right to know about it." Why should she be with Lewis? It was obvious that she resented him. 'What does he mean? And why did he say that he can be with me now that William is not around anymore? William told me that he will be there for me, and that I should wait for him!' Crista remembered it so clearly that it was simply impossible for her to forget his promise to her. "It is true that he has a right to know about your child, but it is too late for that now," Lewis said, looking at her, but in his heart, he was afraid that she might become hysterical and fall unconscious. "What do you mean by too late? What is that supposed to mean, Lewis? What happened to William? I want to see him... No, I need to see him right now!" After saying that, Crista rushed to the middle of the road, and stopped a car th

Let Me Love You In the end, Lewis chose to take Crista away. He went back to the ward, and looked at her. The doctor who followed him in gave her an injection. "Mr. Lui, if you still insist on taking Miss Jin away, then I'll have to finish the paperwork for you so that you will be able to go through the discharge formalities,” the doctor said to Lewis. Money had the power to do anything, so Lewis bribed the doctor to give some tranquilizer for Crista, so that he could take her away from there while she was still asleep. Gian soon arrived at the hospital. "Mr. Lui, everything is done." Lewis nodded and handed him a prescription. "Go through the discharge formalities for Crista first, and once you're done with that, you can go to the pharmacy and get her medicines. I will be taking her downstairs now." After Gia left the ward, Lewis changed Crista's clothes, put his coat on her, picked her up in his arms, and left the h

Escape In The Middle Of The Night If she had shielded William from the bullet, he would have been fine. Crista had done that three years ago, and she survived, so there was a high chance she would be all right again. It was a gamble, yes, but she was willing to take that risk. He should not have pushed her away. She did not need his protection! She now understood William's obsession with keeping her safe. But it was way too late, and she was tethering on the brink of losing her mind. Lewis looked at her, his brows furrowed in jealousy. "You will sacrifice your life for him? If I was the one on the receiving end of that bullet, would you do the same for me?" Crista kept mum, curling up into a ball, her mind tormented. She did not know if she would feel the same for Lewis. All she cared about was how she did not want to see William harmed. Maybe she would save Lewis, or maybe not. The thing was, she had not cont

Want To See Him Lewis held her in his arms as he still could not let her go- Crista had lost a lot of blood and had no strength left in her to struggle. She could only watch as Martin and his men helped William up. "Let go of me, Lewis! I want to be with him. I want to be with him!" Crista was scared. No one could tell what would happen to William as he had gotten shot in his chest. However, she hoped that he would be fine, and wanted to be by his side. William tried his best to stand up and said, "Chica, wait for me!" No matter how strong he was, he still could not help but faint. Martin shouted his name a few times before he looked at Crista and carried William out of there. He didn't take Crista with him because he could not afford to waste time now. If they continued to deal with Lewis, then William was going to die. Holding Crista in his arms, Lewis walked step by step towards Anpu, who was lying

It's Either Your Life Or Crista's When he heard Lewis mention Crista, William's expression darkened. "You kidnapped Chica, didn't you? What did you do to her?" "What I did to her? What do you think I did to her? I can do the same things that you did to her, right? Don't forget that I am a man, too, just like you!" Lewis said with a smug smile. 'What do I want to do to Crista?' Of course, Lewis wanted her, but she did not want him. She would not even let him touch her. She had struggled and resisted him for a long time now. But for William, she became pregnant. She was doing everything for William, but not for Lewis. She didn't care how deep his love was. She would rather hurt him than compromise. "As long as you promise to let Chica go, I'll do whatever you ask me to do," William said. He had made up his mind to do anything and to give up anything for the sake of her safety. "Are you sure that you are willing to do an

What On Earth Did He Want To Do With Her Lewis bent over and planted a kiss on Crista's lips. He had never kissed her long enough or often enough to his liking. It must be his lucky day! He cupped his hand behind her head, holding it steady as he explored her mouth deeper. Crista writhed to get away, very much on the defensive. The more she floundered wildly, the more the ropes scraped away under her skin. There was no chance to avoid his kiss! Desperately, Crista bit down on his lips until her mouth filled with the metallic tang of blood. She bit and kicked, trying to shake off the strong hand that held her fast, but Lewis persisted, tasting her until she almost suffocated beneath him. "Do you want William to know we kissed?" Lewis smirked as he wiped the blood off his lip. He lifted a hand and signaled to Anpu’s men to leave them alone. "What on earth do you want to do with me?” Crista heaved and panted, the struggl
