New Romance in Marriage Chapter 132 Making Shelly Mad
Shelly knew the secretaries revealed the story to her just to make her mad. Since she joined the company, she noticed that the secretaries were rather fond of Paige. She had no idea how Paige charmed them. “Madam is really a happy girl, and the boss treats her so well,” Gloria lamented. Sandra and Margaret nodded in agreement. “The boss really does treat the madam well.” Shelly could not bear to listen to them anymore. Must they talk about how well Chris treated Paige in front of her? “Shelly, do you think the boss treats the madam well?” Gloria asked Shelly with a smile. Shelly replied dully, “I don’t know.” Gloria chuckled. “I guess so. You’re still new. You’ll know when you’ve been here long enough.” Gloria was wrong because Shelly did not want to know at all. After that, Shelly decided to ignore the secretaries and send Joneus a text. Since Chris was not attending the party, she did not want to go as well. She was tired, both mentally and physically. She wanted

So why can’t I go back on my promise?” Paige realized it was her who started it first. Blushing, she slowly released the blanket and reached out to hug him. Chris was slightly surprised. However, he accepted her hug and ravaged her until she was exhausted. …Sierra texted Paige, asking, “Paige, will Chris be joining you for Hannah’s wedding?” “Yes, he is.” Sierra froze for a moment when she saw the reply. She had mixed feelings about it.She wanted Chris to go because she wanted to see him. However, she also understood that his presence would be to support Paige and show respect to her family. She was torn. She was both happy and sad that Chris would attend. Sierra asked, “Will he be coming over earlier with us?” The question took Paige aback because she had not asked Chris about that. Since she was sitt
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 134 Randall Is Here Too
The next morning, Chris and Paige woke up early and had breakfast before heading to the airport. At the airport, Paige and Chris met up with Sierra and spotted Randall by Sierra’s side. “Paige.” Sierra greeted Paige with a bright smile. Paige responded with a forced smile and then cast a cautious glance at Chris. As expected, Chris’s expression was pretty unpleasant. Sensing Paige’s gaze, Chris glanced at her coldly. “I have no idea why Randall is here,” Paige quickly explained to Chris in a hushed tone, afraid he would bereave her at the next moment. Chris simply glanced at her coldly and said nothing. Paige was afraid he did not believe her. However, she genuinely had no idea why Sierra was with Randall. At that moment, Sierra and Randall walked up to them and said with a welcoming smile, “Let’s go.” Paige looked at Randall. “Randy, why are you here?” Randall smiled as he said, “It’s been a while since I saw Hannah, so I thought I’d drop by.” Paige was speechles
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 135 Give Randall Hope
Paige understood it all too well and had grown accustomed to it. While her family was far less wealthy than the Jewells, among her relatives, they were considered well-off. Ever since she was young, she had seen many relatives trying to flatter her father. She did not find such behavior distasteful or inherently wrong. Everyone wanted to gain some advantage from those wealthier and more powerful than themselves; it was normal. As long as it did not involve crossing the line or crossing one’s back, she saw nothing wrong with it. “No,” he said calmly.He had gotten used to it as well. For him, it was an ordinary occurrence. “Oh…” “Do you think they embarrass you?” Chris suddenly asked. Paige paused for a moment and shook her head. “No.” She would never think that way. Chris nodded softly and did not continue the conversation. Paige fell silent as well. Then, she went on her phone for a while before feeling sleepy and taking a nap on the bed. Chris was left speechless
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 136 Sierra Holding Chris' Hand
Sierra looked at Randall and asked, “If you think Chris still loves me, why does he treat me so badly?” She stared at Randall, hoping to get an answer from him. She needed the affirmation that Chris still loved her. “What do you think?” Randall asked as he looked into her eyes. “You betrayed him by cheating on him. Can’t he give you the cold shoulder?” Sierra was silenced. She had been living in regret since the very first day. She blamed herself for succumbing to the temptation and cheating on Chris. She was filled with remorse. “Chris is a man with such high status and power, yet you betrayed him by cheating on him. You should be grateful you’re still alive,” Randall said. Sierra remained quiet. “It’s because he still loves you that he can’t bring himself to hurt you. Otherwise, you’ll be living a life worse than hell,” Randall said. Sierra looked at Randall, seemingly convinced. She believed that Chris still loved her, and Randall was right — Chris still had feelings
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 137 Cut Her Hand
What should she do now? Should she continue her apology and beg for forgiveness? Chris looked at Paige and said, “What should you do when you see another woman holding your husband’s hand?” Paige was silenced, as with everyone else.She looked at Sierra holding Chris’ hand and instantly knew what the man was referring to. Chris wanted her to take a stand. If her response did not please him, she, Sierra, and her family would suffer the consequences. Paige took a deep breath and walked up to her sister. She pulled the tearful Sierra away and looked her in the eye, saying, “Sierra, this is my husband.” She held their wrists with each hand, trying to separate them by force, but Sierra refused to let go. She did not want to let go because if she did, it would be the last time she could ever hold his hand. However, Paige managed to pry Sierra’s hand away by sheer force. She looked at Sierra, whose face was covered in tears. Sierra called out to Paige, “Paige.” Paige suppress
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 138 Slam The Door
Paige had no idea until she heard Chris, and her eyes widened in shock. Then, Chris pounded her harder, making her groan. It got so loud that it reached next door. …Hannah and Norman accompanied Sierra back to her room. It was Hannah who booked their rooms for them, which were three adjoining rooms and all of them suites. After Hannah left, Sierra opened the window and pressed her ear against the wall, listening for sounds next door. At first, it was silent, but she suddenly heard some strange noises. As an adult, she knew what the noise was. She was so furious yet sad that she immediately burst into tears. She knew she should not have eavesdropped for her own sake, but she could not help it. The groans lasted for a while before they quieted down. By then, Sierra’s tears had ruined her makeup, and she sat against the wall, her face buried in her hands as she cried. She was consumed by sorrow and could hardly catch her breath. She hated herself for succumbing to temp
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 139 Midnight Cry
Yes, Sierra would show Chris how miserable she was and stop pretending to be strong. No one would pity a strong woman. …Back inside the room, Paige was just as baffled by Chris slamming the door. She looked at Chris, whom she believed was heartless for slamming the door on Sierra. Chris looked at her, and she also met his gaze. “Do you have something to say?” he asked. Paige shook her head. There were many things she wanted to say, but she did not dare to say it. Chris raised his brows. “Nothing to say?” When Paige nodded, Chris scoffed. “Hmph.” Paige could sense his anger in the little scoff. She did not know why the man was mad or what made him mad.After all, Sierra got the door slammed in her face, and as the one who did it, he should be happy. In fact, she thought he looked quite dashing in the way he did it. “Don’t entertain Sierra anymore, “Chris said. He genuinely hated Sierra. However, he knew he could never shake her off for the rest of his life because

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.

"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,
