New Romance in Marriage Chapter 120 Chris Embarrassing Shelly
Chris glanced at Shelly. The woman seemed to be asking for acknowledgment. “Chris, I think you look better than him,” Shelly said with a sweet and shy smile. Paige was speechless at how Shelly was teasing her husband right in front of her face and ignoring her as if she were non-existent. However, Chris ignored Shelly and asked Paige, “What do you think?” “Huh? What?” Paige looked at Chris, confused. Chris asked, “Who looks better, me or Randall?” Shelly froze. She found that Chris was treating her with indifference and no respect.Back when they were dating, even though he was cold, he had manners. He might be a cold person, but he was quite the gentleman. He would rarely use his status or identity to put others in a difficult position unless he hated that person, like Randall. Chris hated Randall so much that he showed no respect for that man. Now, Chris was treating Shelly the same. He showed no respect to her and rarely replied to her questions. It hurt She
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 121 More, Please
Chris was now married, yet Shelly, acting as a friend, tended to his every need during dinner in front of his wife. Any woman with a slight shred of self-respect would never do such a thing. Perhaps men would have a thing for women fawning over them. However, other women despised that sort of thing. Besides, everybody loved Paige. They may not have known her before, but after spending a few days with her, they found that Paige was a soft-spoken, kind, and simple woman. She was quiet and discreet in the office, never bossing people around just because she was the boss’ wife. “This is delicious.” Chris put his fork out to Paige so that she could have a bite. Paige was speechless. She looked at Chris in surprise, flattered that he was feeding her. Paige opened her mouth and ate the food before uttering with a sweet smile, “Yeah, babe. It’s delicious.” She blushed. Chris glanced at Paige, which made her blush harder and feel self-conscious. She believed Chris might hav
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 122 Her Son Can’t Fall for Any Woman
Chris became angrier as Randall and Paige chatted happily. Jealousy tended to draw an ugly side out of people. The secretaries were anxious for Paige on the sidelines. Once again, Paige was slow to catch on. How could Paige have a pleasant chat with another man in front of Chris? Could she not see that Chris was getting upset? “Come on.” Chris suddenly dragged Paige to go. “Huh?” Paige was having a blast talking to Randall when Chris yanked her away. She stumbled on her feet and nearly tumbled. After finding her balance, she looked back and waved at Randall. “Bye, Randy.” She did not mean anything by her gesture. She was just being polite and saying goodbye. Randall was the least of her concerns after that. As Chris dragged her away, it became increasingly hard for Paige to walk in her heels. Chris stormed off for a distance before stopping suddenly, causing Paige to bump into his back. Feeling the pinch in her nose, Paige became teary-eyed. Chris looked back at
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 123 Are You Jealous
As Paige held her phone up, a text message came in. It was from Gloria. Gloria texted, “Are you okay, madam?” Paige wrote back, “Why wouldn’t I be?” Gloria replied, “Mr. Jewell seemed angry.” Paige had no words. Gloria added, “Is he really angry?” Paige responded, “Yeah.” “I knew it,” Gloria wrote.Paige asked, “Knew what?” Gloria texted, “From my years of navigating the love field, Mr. Jewell is jealous.” “Jealous?” “That’s right.” Paige was speechless. Then, Gloria typed, “Your neighbor is hot, and you had fun talking to each other. Mr. Jewell didn’t have the chance to join in the conversation, so he became jealous.” Paige did not know what to say. Gloria wrote, “I can’t believe I’d see the day Mr. Jewell would be jealous. What a surprise.” Paige was lost for words. Gloria texted again, “I thought an emotionless man like Mr. Jewell wouldn’t know what love is.” Paige responded with silence. Gloria remarked, “You’re awesome, Mrs. Jewell.” Paige
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 124 What Did Ann Say
When Chris and Sierra first got engaged, Paige wanted to be friendly and thought a nickname would bring them closer, so she called him “C”.Chris was dumbstruck. Had she ever? Chris did not remember a thing. He had met Paige a handful of times before he got engaged to Sierra, but he did not have time for Sierra, much less her sister. At the time, Chris got the impression that Paige was a meek and docile girl. That was all he thought about her. If he had known that he would marry Paige someday, he would have noticed her sooner.“The past is the past. Randall was Randy to you in the past, but you still call him that now anyway. If I was C to you before, why aren’t you addressing me as that now?” Chris asked. Paige was speechless. She blushed as she looked at Chris. Was he expecting her to address him affectionately? Paige opened her mouth but could not bring herself to say it. The form of address used to be easy for her. Now, it was strange to go back to the name
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 125 Didn’t Say I Won’t Leave You Alone
Ann wanted to control her son and his marriage. “Did you tell her I won’t leave you alone?” Chris asked indifferently. Paige turned red in the face and looked at Chris. She could not possibly make such a shameless remark to Ann. Ann would have a problem with Paige saying that. In fact, she would call Paige shameless for thinking her son would be all over her when she did not have the charm, the looks, or the body. “I didn’t mention it,” Paige murmured blushingly. Chris uttered callously, “You can tell her that when we’re home tonight.” Paige wanted to apologize and say she could not do it. “I think Ann is right. We’re young. We should listen to our bodies and practice restraint. Moderation is the key. Too much of anything is bad for us.” Despite the burning in her cheeks, Paige bit the bullet and blurted it out. “Bad?” Chris raised his brow at Paige. Paige remained quiet. Chris asked, “Are you worried I'll push myself too hard and not be able to keep doing it?”
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 126 Kick the Door Down
Shelly’s stilettos were killing her from walking about, and she had to focus on work.Sometimes, Paige could see the weariness on Shelly’s face. Shelly had an inflated ego, and things were not going as she planned. Although she said she came to the Jewell Group to learn, everybody knew what she was really after. Shelly was trying to get close to Chris. She thought that since Chris had plenty of secretaries and assistants, she would have an easy job and time to spend with Chris. It took time for two people to bond, and they would develop feelings for each other as they spent time together. However, it never occurred to her that the job as Chris’ secretary was demanding. Shelly would only see Chris in the morning during the briefing, and it would depend on her luck if she got to see Chris the rest of the day. On a good day, she might be able to see Chris. The worst part was not even that. Shelly had to work alongside Sandra, and if she did not pay attention, Sandra would
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 127 Snitch
Sandra, Margaret, and Gloria exchanged looks. Although Shelly said nothing, the look on her face showed she got the snub. Shelly was new, so she probably did not know Chris’ routine. Although work was important, he did not overlook his health and quality of life. When he had an afternoon nap every day, he would lock his office door to stop anyone from bothering him. They knew Shelly would be shut out, but no one gave her the heads-up. What was the point anyway? If they were nice to tell her about it, Shelly might think they were out to stop her. Shelly needed a rude awakening to accept reality. Although Shelly pretended to work, she could not focus. Her attention kept being drawn to Chris and Paige in the lounge, and she wondered what they were doing. Were they sleeping or sleeping together? Shelly knew that Chris and Paige were married, so it was normal for them to engage in intimacy. …Chris woke up at 1:40 p.m. without an alarm clock. He had trained his biological clo

New Romance in Marriage Chapter 700 Strawberry Laces
The receptionist did not reply. Gloria: [You're in trouble. I can't save you now.]The receptionist: [No, I haven't eaten it yet.]Gloria: [Good thing you haven't. I'm coming down.]As soon as the receptionist received Gloria's message, Gloria stepped out of the elevator.Upon reaching the front desk and noticing the bag of strawberry laces opened on the desk, Gloria glared at the receptionist. "You said you hadn't eaten it!"The receptionist looked a little guilty. "I just opened it and haven't had a chance to take one yet."Gloria sneered. "Haven't had a chance? You sound like you regret it."“I don't.""You can't afford this cup of bubble tea. If you did take one, watch out… You might lose your job."The receptionist paused in surprise. "Is it expensive?"Gloria nodded. "It is."“Good thing I didn't take one," the receptionist mumbled. Gloria rolled her eyes. If they were not on the same team, she would not even bother saving her."Why is this bag of strawberry laces
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 699 Strawberry Laces
Chris chuckled. "Really?"Paige's face turned slightly red. She felt embarrassed saying that, and it felt like Chris did not believe her. However, she bit the bullet and nodded. "Yeah, really."Chris smiled and said, "Well then, when you miss me next time, don't just think about it because thinking won't do you any good. When you miss me or care about me, just send me a message or call to check in. After all, I can’t read minds. Also, if you want to hug me, just hug me. Don't hold Hunter in your arms and say you want to hug me. That's just hypocritical."Paige faltered. Hug him when she wanted to hug him? Thanks, but she did not want to hug him. She could easily pick up Hunter, but could she lift Chris so easily? She was not that strong, to begin with."Remember. From now on, when you think of me, send me a message. Ask me if I've eaten, what I've eaten, if I'm tired from work, what I'm doing, or tell me what you're thinking about. Don't keep it all to yourself," Chris said wit
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 698 I Secretly Care For You
What did he take her for?Besides, what could a woman do with photos? She was not one of those perverted men who did some creepy stuff with women’s photos."Nothing worth admiring?" Chris raised an eyebrow.Paige nodded. "Yeah, they’re nothing worth admiring."Indeed, there was nothing worth admiring about the photos."Ha!” Chris snickered.Paige remained silent and thought, ‘Here comes the snickering again.’"You don’t mean what you say," Chris remarked.Paige frowned. "What did I say that implies otherwise? You're a strange one. You're right here in front of me. Why would I need to admire the photos?"Chris grinned. "So you don't want to admire the photos, but you want to admire me, a living person."Paige blushed slightly, feeling embarrassed. She did not mean that, but what she just said seemed to imply exactly that."How would you want to admire me?" Chris teased.Admire was such an intriguing word.Paige blushed harder. "How else can I admire you? Just by looking,
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 697 Taking Pictures of Chris
Before Hunter was born, Chris was the absolute darling of the family. His grandfather favored him, and his parents loved him dearly.However, Hunter's arrival had changed everything. The elders in the family revolved around Hunter all day long. Zander’s first question upon waking up each morning was about Hunter, followed by Ann cuddling Hunter, calling him her darling, and so on.It seemed like everyone had forgotten about Chris.How could Chris, who had always been so cherished, accept that?Chris's expression stiffened as if his thoughts had been unexpectedly revealed, his eyes flickering momentarily.Paige chuckled and said, "Are you seriously competing with a child for attention? Besides, you've been pampered by the family for so many years. Hunter has only been pampered for a few days."Chris retorted coldly, "I'm not competing with him."Paige did not buy it for a second. She smiled and said, "Sure, you're not competing with him. You're just afraid we'll spoil Hunter."A
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 696 Chris Gets Jealous
Before, Paige could not understand people showing off their babies and wondered why they would go crazy posting their kids on social media. Now, she got it. She found her kid to be the cutest in the world and could not help but snap his photos and post them on her social media platforms to share him with others, hoping for compliments and praise for her little one.However, she also understood that posting too much could annoy people. Hence, she restrained herself to only posting once a day and made sure to fit in a couple of photos!That was her absolute limit!She felt uneasy if she did not post her baby for a day. Then, when she saw her friends' comments praising her little one, she felt happy and proud, like they were getting closer as friends.Indeed, becoming a mom had changed her mindset.Chris, who was watching Paige show off their baby on social media, was even more dissatisfied! They had been married for a long time and had a child together, yet his appearances o
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 695 Buying Ava A House
After what felt like ages, Ava lay on the hotel's large bed, staring blankly at the ceiling as the sound of rushing water filled her ears. Niel was in the shower. After releasing his pent-up emotions, he headed straight for the shower. Meanwhile, she lay there, her body aching. She did not want to move a muscle because every movement brought pain.Niel was thrilled with the new experience, but Ava was suffering. She was starting to regret getting involved with Niel. He was going overboard with satisfying his physical needs, and she feared that if things continued like that, Niel might end up causing her harm or maybe even unintentionally ending her life. She had heard of such things happening before, so now, she was caught between a rock and a hard place.On one hand, she did not want to let go of Niel and give up on all the sacrifices and efforts she had put in when she was on the brink of marrying into a wealthy family and becoming a billionaire's wife. On the other han
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 694 Niel And Ava
Pierre fell silent, pondering Shelly's words carefully. Upon reflection, he found Shelly's proposal to be pretty reasonable and entirely feasible. If he were to wait until Shelly entered prison to serve her sentence, he could break up with her afterward. Once his relationship with Shelly ended, his parents would not be as angry. Even if there were some constraints preventing them from openly helping him, they could still assist him discreetly. After all, he was their son, who shared the same blood with them. His parents could not possibly abandon him entirely and let him fend for himself. By lowering himself in front of his parents, he believed they would not neglect him. By then, acquiring the five million dollars would not be too difficult.Shelly watched Pierre, not pressing him to respond. She believed Pierre knew what choice to make. Five million might seem like an astronomical figure, but for the second son of the Alfonsos, it was not much.After much deliberation
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 693 Shelly Wants Money
She looked at the evil smile on Chris' face, and it all came back to her.Did Chris Intentionally take Hunter to the guest room to hand him over to the nanny so that it would make it easier for him to do what he wanted? What a scumbag! However, since it was something she had personally agreed to, she would not back out.Paige did not resist Chris, and a long time later, she collapsed on the bed. She felt like she should have taken care of Hunter and not fallen for Chris' tricks.Taking care of a child was not as exhausting!She was too tired to even move her fingers.The next day, Paige slept until late morning and then got up to go down for breakfast.When Ann saw Paige, she asked with concern, "Paige, didn't you sleep well last night?"Paige looked really worn out."Didn't Hunter sleep with the nanny last night?" Ann asked curiously.Paige blushed with embarrassment and said, "Last night… I wasn't used to sleeping without Hunter, so I didn't get a good sleep."Ann smile
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 692 What Else Do You Have
Even if she offered her sincerity, Chris would not appreciate it, so what else could she offer? "Is money the only thing you have? Do you have nothing else besides money?" Chris said.He thought she was truly clueless. Even after being married for so long and having a child together, did she not know what he wanted?However, Paige was indeed puzzled. Besides money, what else did she have? What else could she have?Chris looked her up and down, speechless. Paige might not have understood what he meant before, but she did now. He meant that although she did not have money, she still had a young body.It seemed all Chris lusted was her body."I’m still recovering," Paige said with a slight blush on her face. She knew Chris had been patient for a long time. They barely had any intimacy during the last trimester of her pregnancy, but there was nothing she could do. She did not want to refuse him, but her body would not allow it.Chris glanced at Paige and said, "We can try other
