Take Great Pains For A Woman

Lewis was sitting in his car, pondering over what the woman had said. She was persuading him to give up his love for Crista. But how could it be possible?

He had done so much already and had prepared for anything. He did not need to worry, did he?

He could not imagine being without Crista, even knowing that she must hate him very much now. He was no longer the Lewis she knew before, and he was not expecting her to have a sudden change of mind and fall in love with him in the end. His right hand gripped the steering wheel, and the white handkerchief still wrapped around his fist got his attention. His wounds had healed, but he did not want to take the cloth off.

It was like a feeble attempt to keep a part of Crista with him. Lewis scoffed at himself. He did not know why he was still holding on. Why did he have to force Crista so harshly? He had never imagined that he and Crista would end up on such

    She Loved Him Too Looking at William's mysterious expression, Crista guessed where they were going. She had talked to Martin earlier that day and he had asked her to keep their meeting a secret. If she hadn't met him, she could not have guessed. Even though she had figured out the truth, she was not able to say it out now. She looked out of the window at the beautiful view. They were finally at the underground garage of the Royal Entertainment Club. Next to William's exclusive parking space was a row of black luxury cars. Holding Crista in his arms, William said, "Martin is back. You can stay with me, but don't drink too much." It was the first time that William had taken the initiative to bring Crista to his party, and since she was his date, his men would not just let her sit in a corner and sip on some tea. Crista looked at him and said, "If you don't want me to drink, then why did you bring me here?" She had been

    Those Who Really Knew Him Crista just couldn't give up her love for William. If she could, then she would not have gone through so much pain in the past few years. Now, she seemed to understand William's feelings for her, but she thought that he would never confess his feelings for her. However, she was willing to do anything for him. "I know you love William. But do you really think that you can give him what he needs? How much do you think you can help him?" Carla looked at her and took a deep breath before she continued, "Look, Lewis wants you. I don't want to force you, but he will. He will force William too. He will drive both of you into a comer. Did you ever think about that?" Crista smiled faintly and asked, "Why do you think so? You know Mr. Ding better than me, don't you?" Carla was surprised to hear her answer. She had worked for William for a long time now. Didn't she know him well enough? Was Crista the only one

    He Underestimated Her Hearing Lewis' words, William frowned and said, "I don't understand. What are you even talking about? Are you trying to justify what you've done?" Why did Lewis hate him so much? As he thought of that, William's brows furrowed deeper. Did Lewis misunderstand something about him? "You don't understand? Maybe you have forgotten what happened all those years ago." Lewis sneered. William had done so many hateful things that it was not unusual for him to forget some of them. Wasn't he just a heartless man? And hadn’t he achieved everything that he had in life by being a heartless man? But what about Lewis? He had become an orphan more than ten years ago and had lost everything because of William. Looking at Lewis, William suddenly understood that Anpu was the one behind his thirst for revenge. Lewis had always been Anpu's pawn. Did it mean that he had used Crista as a mere piece in his game of

    It Was Her Fault Lewis sat on the sofa and looked at Anpu, "Father, I won’t forget. But no matter what, please don't hurt Chica." "Why are you still obsessing about that woman, Lewis? Do you think after all this strife, she will still bounce her way back to you? Don't be stupid!" Chery walked over and said unhappily. The fact that Lewis never liked her made her bitter. He only ever pined for Crista, but Crista did not reciprocate his affection. "Chery, if it weren't for you, Chica and I wouldn't end up like this!" If only Chery had not pestered him and got pregnant, Crista would not break off their engagement and cut all connections with him. "You're blaming me now? You can't force love, Lewis. Sober up! And mind you, if you still want to be with me, you better clean up your act right away!" It was hard to tell whether Chery love Lewis or not. Her feelings appeared more of an attachment forged out of familiari

    He Had No Choice "Uncle Adrian, can't we investigate it? We really don't have any clues?” Lewis noticed Adrian's embarrassment. It was as though he was hiding something from him. "Lewis, you have a happy and peaceful life now. If you want to go back to school and be a vice-principal again, then I can arrange that, but I can't help you with anything else.” Adrian was a small entrepreneur in A City. He just could not afford to offend some certain people in the city. He was not able to do that before, and he could not do it now. He had heard about the relationship between Lewis and a particular man, which only made him determine to keep his mouth shut. Moreover, he didn't have any evidence, he was only guessing. Lewis couldn't get any answer from him. He knew that the tragedy that his family had gone through over ten years ago was not simple at all, but there was nothing that he could do now. "Uncle Adrian, how’s Sally doing now

    Even If I Did Not Send You Away, You Will Still Leave With Him Crista put her hands on his chest to stop him from getting any closer. She could feel the cold aura emanating from him. "I... The person dialed the wrong number." Crista chose not to tell him the truth. William glared at her and hissed, "I want the truth!" What was he supposed to do to get her to be honest with him? He would feel better even if she said something harsh. Since she was not willing to tell him the truth, William felt that she was not seeing him as a trustworthy man. She would rather keep secrets and bear all the difficulties on her own than tell him about it. William gripped her wrist tightly, sending a shockwave of pain through her body. He was forcing her to tell the truth, including the thing that happened between her and Lewis when they had met alone. "Mr. Ding, you're hurting me. I already told you it was a wrong call," Crista did not wa

    He Wouldn't Care About Her Tears Anymore Crista looked at William and asked, “Will you change your mind?" She wanted him to say yes, but she noticed his expression change slightly when he heard her. ’Is she trying to piss me off? How could she ask me such a question? Doesn't she want to leave? If she wants, she can just leave now. Why does she still insist on staying? Why does she have to pretend like she did not want to leave?' “Have you changed your mind?" Crista could tell that he was unhappy just by looking at him, but she could not bear to leave. William glared at her, and said, “You..." The next second, he turned around, walked back to the bedroom and changed his clothes. In two minutes, he came out of the room and, without even looking at her, he stormed out of the apartment. Crista only heard the loud sound of the door being closed shut. She collapsed on the sofa. Was he really going to send her away like he d

    Driven Away Crista had been recuperating since she moved into the new apartment. She missed William, no doubt about it. The man had been on her mind constantly, and she wanted to mend things with him, but she had no way of reaching him anymore. He probably did not want to see her, anyway. If only she had explained everything to him earlier, then they would not come to such an untimely end. William stood at the ward, watching over Carla. She was still lying in a state of coma due to excessive blood loss. What she did for him was immeasurable, and William owed it to her massively. As he replayed how Carla got injured, a low moan trailed out, and Carla’s eyes opened slowly. "Carla, you are awake." William strode to the bedside, looking at her pale face. She finally woke up after being unconscious for three days. "William, why am I here?" Carla took stock of her surroundings in a dazed stupor and noticed that she was in a hospita

    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
