New Romance in Marriage Chapter 177 Bob Doesn’t Care About Wendy
With Paige and Chris present, things were bound to get complicated.On the way there, he pondered if Wendy's actions were intentional — to threaten him not to divorce her with her death. He would not compromise. He refused to believe that Wendy would truly dare to take her own life. It was just a means to threaten him, and he would not yield so easily.However, if he did not yield, someone else would, and that person was Paige. Despite not having a strong bond with his daughter since she was a child, he understood her personality. Paige was a deeply emotional person. Perhaps it was due to her early emotional deprivation that she had grown to value relationships more. Even though Wendy might not be the best mother to Paige, she still considered Wendy as a mom and loved her. Paige could not bear to watch Wendy try to end her life."Dad..." Sierra and Paige, the two sisters, looked at Bob with teary eyes.Bob approached them, his face full of worry and anxiety. "How’s your mom d
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 178 Expecting Compensation For His Services
Sierra felt both guilty and worried as she said, “Mom, I can see you haven't been sleeping well. You look exhausted, and it hurts me to see you like this. I just wanted you to get a good night's sleep, but I added too many pills. I thought mixing the sleeping pills in the soup would dilute their effect, so I added a few extra…”Wendy responded with silence.She looked at her remorseful daughter and said, “Alright. I understand. I don't blame you.”Sierra wiped away her tears and told Wendy, “Mom, I think we stumbled upon something unexpected this time.”“What do you mean?” Wendy asked.Sierra spoke in a hushed tone, “Dad is unusually gentle with you today, and even Paige seemed really concerned about you.”Wendy's eyes flickered for a moment.She was not naive to understand what Sierra was getting at. Sierra meant that her 'suicide attempt' had actually frightened them.Had it scared Bob, too?Did he change his mind about the divorce?Wendy looked at Sierra and said, “I under
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 179 To the Cloudnine Suites Again
Paige hesitated, her cheeks turning red as she glanced at Chris. Did they really have to discuss this now? What was the difference between the themed rooms anyway?With her face blushing, Paige mumbled, "Um… Any of them is fine."She was shy and embarrassed, unlike Chris."Any of them is fine?" Chris thought for a moment before replying, "How about staying in one themed room for the first half of the night and another for the second half?"Paige blinked in surprise.The first half of the night? The second half of the night? Was he planning to stay up all night?Paige blushed and looked at Chris.His silence meant he could stay up all night, but… she could not. Sometimes, she wondered why, even though she was 20 and in the prime of her youth, she could not outlast Chris in bed. Was it because of her physical condition? She was considering going to the gym.Paige had no choice. She needed Chris's help, so it was settled — one themed room for the first half of the night and an
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 180 The Truth
Paige, dressed in the bridal outfit and veiled, stepped out slowly. When Chris heard the footsteps, he turned in the direction of the sound and saw the fair-skinned Paige in the bridal outfit, moving gracefully.The moment he laid eyes on her, he was aroused."Come here," Chris hoarsely called out to Paige from the bed.Paige hesitated for a moment, and her face blushed as she slowly walked over to Chris and stood in front of him.Chris looked at Paige. Her skin was fair, and the white in the bridal outfit complemented her snow-white complexion beautifully. The combination was simply stunning.Chris said, "Perhaps… we should have a wedding.""Huh?" Paige, looking through the delicate veil, stared at Chris in confusion. Why did they need to have another wedding? Was it for more gifts?"You look perfect in white," Chris remarked.Paige replied, "Oh."…Later, Paige finally understood why the bridal outfit was disposable. It's because there was no way to wear it again. She h

Paige replied, "Oh.""Besides, you're not that clever. I'm afraid you'd mess things up if you meddle in their affair. In the end, it won't benefit anyone. Not just two but three parties will suffer. Your dad, your mom, and your sister, isn't that three parties?" Chris remarked.Paige looked at Chris in distress. What did he mean by her not being clever enough?"I got into university through sheer hard work," Paige replied indignantly. Her school was also a nationally renowned institution, and her admission was proof of her high intelligence.Chris chuckled as he looked at Paige's indignant expression. "Intelligence and emotional intelligence are two different things." Was he mocking her for her lack of emotional intelligence? She considered arguing but decided against it. She could not be bothered to engage in a debate with Chris.… Paige got changed and left the Cloudnine Suite with Chris. Glancing at the time, she realized it was a little late in the afternoon to go to the
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 182 Don’t Let Her Guilt-trip You
Zandar had aged, and he did not have many years left at his age.Right now, Zandar was still the one in charge of the Jewell Group. Although it was clear to everyone that Zandar intended to pass the reins to Chris in the future, as long as Chris had not officially taken over, Niel still had a chance.After all, it was a multi-billion-dollar business empire, and it had everyone's attention.Chris looked at Paige, finding her a kind and sensitive young girl."Yeah." Chris teased Paige with a nod.Paige looked apologetically at Chris.It seemed that her father's insistence on investing in the Flower Bay Project had indeed brought trouble to Chris.What should she do? Should she persuade her father not to invest in the Flower Bay Project anymore?However, her father was currently raising funds from various sources."I agreed to your father's investment in the Flower Bay Project despite the immense pressure I face," Chris said.Paige bit her lip and said, "I'm sorry.""So, how do
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 183 Hugging Chris and Weeping
She was lying in the hospital bed, and Paige was on her phone as if nothing was amiss."Paige..." Wendy called out to Paige."Hm?" Paige looked at Wendy, stood up, and approached the hospital bed, asking, "Mom, what's up?""Do you know that your dad and I are getting a divorce?" Wendy asked directly.Paige nodded. "Yeah."Wendy continued, "So, what do you think? Do you think your dad and I should get divorced?"Paige looked at Wendy and replied, "Naturally, I don't want you both to divorce, but if you both have made that decision, I respect your choice."Wendy was initially pleased with the first part of Paige's response, but her mood turned cold as she heard the rest. She understood what Paige meant. It meant Paige did not care whether her parents were divorced or not. Paige was only concerned about her own happiness now that she was married to Chris."Are you happy seeing me like this?" Wendy asked Paige with a cold, piercing gaze.She knew that as Chris' wife, Paige had p
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 184 Everyone in the Office Knows She Cried
Chris stared at the young girl, whose head was hanging low, and furrowed his brows. "Did Wendy do or say something to you?"Paige fell silent, and her silence was an admission."What did she do to you?" Chris had to restrain his anger and ask.Paige hesitated for a moment before saying, "She didn't do anything to me... She just asked me what I thought of her and Dad's divorce. I told her I respected their decision, and she got angry, called me heartless, and told me to… kill myself."Paige choked when she said the last two words and could not hold back her tears.Chris could not believe the tears the woman had left after weeping for so long that even his suit was drenched. He thought she would run out of tears. "Don't cry." Chris gently wiped away the tears on Paige's face and said, "She’s not worth your tears."However, Paige’s tears was unstoppable.Wendy was her mother, the one who had given birth to her and brought her into the world. Yet now, her mother wanted her gone.

"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?

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

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

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 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
