She Was Being Too Greedy
Chery nodded. "Yes! How could a vain and greedy woman like Crista willingly leave William? Do you really think she loves you? Don't be ridiculous! I am sure she only loves money and power."
If Lewis was as wealthy and powerful as William, then perhaps, Crista would have come back to him.
"She is not like that! You'd better not speak ill of her! Or else, I will have to teach you a lesson." Lewis raised his hand, but he did not slap her across her face.
"You are going to hit me for that bitch? I'm the one you have loved the most ever since we were kids!” Chery grabbed his hand and added, "Great! Hit me! But if you lay a finger on me, I will make sure that bitch Crista pays!" She grabbed his hand and slapped herself like a crazy person.
"Chery! Stop it!" Lewis pushed her away with all his strength before he turned around and walked out of the room, ignoring the fact that she had fallen down.
Just A Substitute "Carla wanted to see me?" William thought. "Why does she want to see me?” He had never really cared about her and he had not visited her since she regained consciousness. "I don't know, she didn't tell me. Anyway, she wanted to see you." Martin shook his head. Carla still loved William. If she did not, then she would not have risked her life to save him, time and again. William smoked the cigarette and said, "I will see her after she is out of the hospital." "But William, you can't keep avoiding her. Miss Jin has left now, don't you plan on accepting Carla?" Martin always felt that William was a better person when he had someone with him. After all that had happened, it seemed that Carla would be the only one who would stay with him till the very end. Crista had left. She and William would never give in to each other. Neither of them were willing to compromise. "What? Do I look like a
She Never Had A Choice The next morning, William went to the hospital with Martin, but Carla was still deep asleep. She was weak from all the medicines as they made her feel drowsy and was not able to stay awake for most of the day. Maria always brought her nutritious soup to make her feel better. "She was seriously injured. The doctor said that she is going to have a permanent scar on her back." Martin had been there many times, but it was the first time he was explaining about Carla’s condition to William. "Is there no other way?" Although William did not ask about her condition, he felt grateful to her for saving his life. "No.” Martin shook his head and continued, "She has dozens of stitches on her back and the wound is deep. The guy who tried to attack you was going for the kill." Anpu was a cold-hearted man. He wanted to kill William before he took everything from him. However, Anpu had been overly confident. Ho
Take Her As A Substitute Lewis took his wallet and pulled out a stack of cash, handing them to Cheena. "Take it. I'm sorry I lost control last night." "Thank you. I'm leaving now." Cheena had finished dressing while they were talking. She picked up her purse and headed for the door with Lewis following, not too far behind. "Your name is Cheena?" Lewis felt like a fool asking. He could not even let her go just because they had the same name. "No, it's Cheena." She flashed him a small smile, shaking her head. She could not help but laugh at how she reminded Lewis of someone he knew or something. How ironic since she was only a lowly person who traded her body for a living. "Oh, it's Cheena," Lewis said as he crashed back into reality, his disappointment written all over his face. What else was he expecting? There was only one Crista. Even if he encountered thousands of other women with the same name, they could
Do Her A Favor Taking a look at Anna, Brian didn't refuse. He held her arm and carefully escorted her out of the ward. Jaime followed them with a small suitcase in his hand. They all walked downstairs and stopped before a car that was parked at the hospital gate. Sitting in the taxi, Crista looked out of the window in a daze. "Ma'am, do you want to get out or do you want me to wait here for you?" the driver asked in a kind voice. She had been sitting in the taxi for nearly half an hour. If she wanted to see someone at the hospital, then the driver did not mind waiting for her if it would not take too long. However, it would be difficult for him to carry on with his work if she sat in his car any longer. But since Crista was not looking very good, he did not have the heart to push her. "I just... I need a minute." Crista had actually followed William there after he left the company. She knew that he had come there to help Carla, but s
No Way Back William saw that Martin was shocked, and raised his eyebrows at him. "What? Either you like her or she is bothering you. Which one is it?” " William, it's not like that!" Martin couldn't keep it a secret anymore. He couldn't risk being accused of loving Crista, so he chose to betray her. It was not because he could not keep his promise to her, but because William was his close friend. "Then what is it?" William lit a cigarette and smoked. He hadn't seen her for a while, and he was missing her. "Miss Jin said that she was in short of money and asked me to get her a job," Martin said gingerly. William took another puff of his smoke before he asked in surprise, "A job? Well, what kind of job did she want? I didn’t ask her to leave Ding Group. She was the one who wanted to resign. Besides, I have already spoken to the finance department and asked them to transfer her salary to her account. How could sh
Didn't You Bring A Date With You Crista was escorted to a luxurious private room. She was used to the scent of smoke and alcohol. Even though she did not like it, there was no way for her to avoid the smell now. After all, it was her only chance to get what she wanted. She could tell that William must have known about it since Martin had changed his attitude towards helping her all of a sudden. As soon as she entered the room, a fat middle-aged man pulled her into his arms. "Hey there, come and have a drink with me!" The man handed a glass of wine to Crista. Crista took the glass from him and asked, "Am I to drink alone? That would be too boring, don’t you agree? Wouldn't it be more fun if you joined me, sir?" 'He's going to get me drunk? What a jerk! I won't let him do that!' Although Crista did have a good tolerance for alcohol, she was not as good as the men who hung out at nightclubs every day. She immedia
Drive Him Crazy William slowly raised his eyes to look at Crista and said, “Your job is to drink with the guests, isn't it? I know you drank a lot with that old guy!" It was clear from his voice that he was jealous. The middle-aged man had not only drunk with her, he had also touched her inappropriately. William admitted that he was not very happy when he learned that Crista was going to work at the nightclub. He had even asked the woman, who was in charge of the club, to force Crista to wear such a short dress, and to be rude to her. But now, he regretted asking that even though he would never say it out loud. "What? Are you not happy? Since you're rich, you can make me do anything. I can drink with you too!" Crista deliberately tried to piss him off. He knew that I was here, and yet, he did not show up until I got drunk and forced myself to puke? How could he ignore me like that?' "You..." William swallowed his word
Fill The Check Crista knew it would be no good when she looked into William's eyes. It would be hard on her if he went crazy, but that was exactly what she wanted that night. William turned all the love in his heart into a deep tenderness, devouring her completely. Crista had left a mark in his heart that could not be erased, so he did not want to let her go anymore. She was destined to be his for the rest of her life. She collapsed into his arms, her arms wrapped around his neck. Their bodies were entwined, sinking into a deep pit of pleasure. William knew that he would not be able to control himself when he was with her. No other woman could seduce him like Crista did. She was embarrassed when she met his eyes. She quickly turned her gaze away, and said, "No, don't look at me like that." Even though she was trying to be bold with him, she still could not help but feel shy when he stared at her. "Why
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
