New Romance in Marriage Chapter 266 James Lives in My Shadow
Was he unable to bear watching her being bullied by James? Perhaps there was still affection in him for her.Slowly, hope started to rise in Sierra's heart. Maybe Chris still loved her, she thought.Why else would he choose her as his fiancée among so many people? It was the only possibility."James wanted to play around for free, but nothing comes that easy," Chris said nonchalantly.One moment, Sierra was in heaven, and the next, with Chris's simple words, she was plunged into hell.His words were humiliating to her.If Chris still had lingering feelings for her, he would not have insulted her.Sierra, with a pale face, looked at Chris.Paige frowned, disapprovingly looking at Chris. She knew Chris had the right to humiliate her sister because her sister had wronged him and hurt him.However, he had humiliated her sister countless times before. Now, when her sister was going through a tough time, did he have to rub salt in her wounds?Her sister is pregnant, too."A pr
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 267 You're Asking Too Much of Me
Paige was at a loss for words.Why was he acting so shameless now? Though, it seemed like it might actually be true."When I was a kid playing with friends, if we encountered someone's elders, the most common thing we'd hear was: 'Look at Chris...'" Chris said nonchalantly. Due to this, he slowly lost many friends. No one liked being constantly compared to others, especially when they were always on the losing side. Maybe that saying is right—geniuses were always lonely. He was lonely, after all. While he had many friends, those who, on the surface, called him a brother did not truly consider him a friend. They associate with him only because of the reputation of the Jewells."Then, do you have a grudge against James?" Paige asked.Chris shook his head. "I don't remember.""You don't remember?"Chris nodded. "Yeah, I don't. There are too many people living in the shadow of my brilliance. Maybe I unintentionally hurt others, but I never knew."Paige had enough of the so
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 268 Do You Still Have Feelings for Sierra?
Paige frowned slightly. It felt slightly off to hand this matter over to Chris. However, there was nothing she or Sierra could do. It had to be Chris.…Chris did care about Sierra's situation. For him, the sooner Sierra married James, the sooner he could finally relax. Otherwise, he would constantly worry if James married someone else. Chris could not let James harm another innocent woman. James and Sierra had to get married. After all, they deserved one another.Chris had his secretary contact James to arrange a meeting at a cafe. James was a bit surprised to receive Chris's invitation but decided to go.He was curious about why Chris wanted to meet him. Was it about Sierra being pregnant? He thought it could not be. Since Chris married Paige, he had completely ignored Sierra. Sierra's matters were none of his concern. However, besides Sierra, there was no other connection between him and Chris. In fact, when James found someone to hand over the photos to Chris
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 269 The Fall of Ann and Shelly’s Relationship
Chris did not turn around. He chuckled softly in response and walked away. James pursed his lips, his face turning unpleasant. At that moment, he felt like a clown. He had schemed to win Sierra over, hoping to hurt Chris. However, he had not managed to touch him at all. Now, it seemed he had become a burden he could not shake off.He did not love Sierra or wanted to marry her, but Chris's threat weighed heavily on his mind. If Chris really intended to stand up for Sierra, things could get complicated.…In the evening, Andrew hosted a dinner for the Jewells. Chris left work early to pick up Paige and headed straight to the restaurant. To Paige's surprise, Shelly was also there.Paige wondered what Shelly was up to. Andrew had invited the Jewells, and clearly, Shelly was not one of them. She was the only outsider.Was Shelly not embarrassed?

New Romance in Marriage Chapter 270 Shelly Makes Up Her Mind
Mandy thought Shelly really loved Chris. However, the moment a man as outstanding as Chris showed up, she could not control herself. Tsk...Now it seemed Shelly might not love Chris as much as she imagined. Perhaps it was not Chris she loved, but his status and power.Heh…Shelly's heart is quite vast. Even though she could not win over Chris, she still had her eyes on Andrew. Did Shelly think she could do whatever she wanted just because she was pretty?With everyone gathered, the dishes were served, and everyone started eating. During the meal, Ann, perhaps intentionally trying to provoke Shelly, treated Paige exceptionally well."Paige, try this. It's delicious," she would say. "Paige, this is good for pregnant women. You should eat more." Shelly could not hide her discomfort.Though Shelly did have some feelings for Andrew, her heart still belonged to Chris. Between Andrew and Chris, she would still choose Chris. Now, it seemed like she had no chance.Chris and P
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 271 Rejecting Bob
Due to her son's intelligence and keen insight, she was willing to trust him in many matters. Hence, when Chris claimed that the Carters were not great people, she decided to abandon the Carters and search for a better family.Being a woman with years of marriage experience, Ann understood that a woman marrying a man was not just about wealth and prowess. As long as two people genuinely loved each other, harmony was more valuable than any amount of money. The upper-class women around her, despite their wealthy backgrounds, faced numerous heartaches.Furthermore, the Jewells were not lacking in wealth. Even if Luna found a man with slightly lesser conditions, as long as the Jewells provided a substantial dowry, it would be enough.Her expectations for her daughter and son differed. She believed her son should strive for success in his career and, therefore, should marry into a wealthy family. Luna's daughter, Luna, furrowed her brow. "I'm still so young… and you're already ar

New Romance in Marriage Chapter 273 The Three of Them
What was going on in Chris’s mind?Wendy could not figure out what Chris was up to.One could say he seemed ruthless toward Sierra, but he was willing to go to such lengths for her: confronting his ex-fiancée's current boyfriend and getting the boyfriend to marry his ex-fiancée, all while his ex-fiancée and her boyfriend had essentially cuckolded him.If he were a regular guy, he would probably want to tear that cheating couple apart. However, no. Not only did he refrain from harming them, but he went so far as to facilitate their relationship and ensure their marriage. What kind of otherworldly man could pull off something like that?One could also say he had feelings for Sierra, but after marrying Paige, the things he did… did not seem like the actions of a man in love with Sierra.Even someone as experienced as Wendy could not see through Chris.However, for some reason, Wendy trusted Chris.He was so powerful that nothing seemed beyond him.Since it was a promise from Chr

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

"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,

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

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.
