New Romance in Marriage Chapter 445 She Would Not Dare Offend Him
"Compare yourself to Tina. Don't you think you're lucky, Paige?" Chris asked.Paige nodded firmly. "Yeah, I am indeed very lucky."At this moment, she could not dare say she was unlucky. If she did, Chris might make her unhappy on the spot. She believed Chris had that power."So, do you think I'm a reckless person?" Chris inquired.Paige shook her head. "No, you're a man with responsibility and self-control."With Paige's affirmative answer, Chris finally felt satisfied. He said, "In the future, you better not provoke me. If you annoy me, I'll be reckless."Paige was indignant; Chris had to be bullshitting her. When had she ever provoked Chris? As a naive and sweet girl, she would not dare offend a domineering CEO like Chris. Facing someone like Chris, she had always tried to please him in various ways.Chris must be joking around.…Tina lay in the hospital, staring at the ceiling with an unpleasant face. She never expected to end up in the hospital because of this incident
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 446 Tina’s Suspicion
The doctor and nurse left after finishing their rounds. Tina could not shake off the doctor's words. Did Niel take some medication?It seemed unlikely.Tina knew what Niel could do with his body. Not to brag, but he seemed normal and did not need drugs to be able to do it.However, thinking about Niel's behavior last night, it did seem like he had popped a pill or something.It had never crossed her mind before, but now, prompted by the doctor's hint, Tina was leaning toward the idea that Niel might have been on something.Only drugs could turn him into an uncaring beast, indifferent to her well-being.Since Niel would not take drugs himself, did that mean someone drugged him?Niel was out last night for dinner. Who did he meet? Was it a woman? Did that woman give him drugs and then do whatever she wanted with him?Did Niel resist her advances?Or perhaps Niel was fooling around with another woman, planning something, but it did not work out, so he came home to take it out o
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 447 Your Sixth Sense is Off
What other moves would he have then? All he could do was admit defeat, but he refused to let that happen. If Andrew would not be his ally, he could forget about being Chris's sidekick.Curious, Tina asked, "Why? If Andrew chooses Mandy, it'd be a significant help for us."Niel replied, "But what if Andrew picks Luna? That could bring us a heap of trouble."Niel never doubted Tina's loyalty. Tina was his wife, and he was confident she was on his side. Despite their conflicts, they were a couple. Their interests, as well as Tina's family’s, were intertwined.When things were good for him, things would also be good for Tina and her family. For the sake of their daughter, they had to stay united. Tina might get upset and even bring things to her grandfather's attention like the last time, leading to Niel's suspension, but he understood that Tina had done it out of anger. Now, everything was fine between him and Tina.Tina's eyes still held the same affection as before.Ti
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 448 Chris is Evil
So furious that she could not find words to counter Chris, Paige widened her eyes and glared at him. She could not believe that scumbag could insult his wife, who was pregnant with his child, like that!"Andrew isn't stupid!" Paige protested. The success of the Carters’ business indicated that the head of the Carters was not a fool. Choosing to groom Andrew proved Andrew was intelligent and capable. If the Carters invested in someone incompetent, they would go bankrupt!Chris replied in an indifferent tone, "With your intelligence, you wouldn't be able to tell. After all, fools don't have 'fool' written on their faces for you to see."Paige was pissed off. She did not know if Chris was doing it on purpose, but did he want to anger her, especially knowing that pregnant women should not be upset? Was he trying to drive her to death so he could find a new wife?Frustrated, Paige asked, "So, tell me. How is Andrew stupid?"Chris explained, "He's causing trouble for himself. If h
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 449 Worse With Each Passing Generation
He was so arrogant, but it warmed her heart.She was really happy.Chris looked at Paige's obedient appearance, and a satisfied smile crept onto his face. He wished she could stay that obedient forever. However, he knew that was impossible.Lately, she had become increasingly disobedient and rebellious.Perhaps it was because she knew he loved her, or maybe it was because she was pregnant. Regardless, she had become less obedient, often arguing with him. His words no longer held the same authority, and she would confront him with great determination.Since that was the case, what would happen when they had the child? Would she become even more unruly, acting like she was the boss?Chris felt the need to find an opportunity to assert his position as the head of the family, or his role as the head of the family would be a bit precarious.Nevertheless, there was no need for him to rush. If he patiently, an opportunity would arise, and Paige would see clearly who the true head of
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 450 Paige Is Made For Chris
Ann nodded with a smile. "Sure." She did not see any problem with it. Her son and daughter-in-law were getting along well, which was great.Thinking back, Ann realized she had misjudged people. To think she liked Shelly and wanted to force the latter on Chris, hoping Shelly would become her daughter-in-law.If Shelly had married Chris, Chris would not be as happy as he was now. Shelly was complicated, and so was Chris. If two strong-willed individuals became a couple, both wanting to be in control, conflicts would arise because none would yield in disagreements.Someone like Paige, who was obedient, gentle, and easygoing, matched well with Chris's dominant personality. Paige was perfect for Chris. Ann realized she had been delusional, focusing only on Shelly's impressive qualities and not considering the dynamics after their marriage.Shelly loved Chris, and before marrying Chris, she would naturally listen to him. However, once married, she would not yield to Chris all t
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 451 Why Don’t You Return the Gift
Paige grinned and said, "Alright, I'll take these, Mom. Thank you."Ann smiled back at her. "Silly child, we're family now. You don’t have to thank me. Alright, I’ll leave you be to get some good rest."Paige nodded. "Sure."Once Ann left, Paige sat alone on the couch, happily examining each piece of jewelry, especially the jade accessories. They were all so beautiful. Paige picked them up like precious treasures, savoring each one.Observing Paige, Chris smirked and teased, "When you said no earlier, you were just pretending, right? Deep down, I’m sure you really wanted them."Paige blushed and protested, "I didn’t! I genuinely didn't want them. It was because of you and your mom’s insistence that I accepted them."Chris nodded. "I see. We practically forced you to accept them, but in actuality, you didn't want any of it."Paige blushed even harder. "I really didn't want them."Chris nodded knowingly, his gaze suggestive.Paige stared at Chris, annoyed that he was doing it on
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 452 Bummed She Didn’t Get to Meet Grandma
"What's up?" Chris asked, "Are you worried our daughter won't have gifts?"Paige gave him a look. "You know that's not what I mean."Chris replied, "I don't know. I'm not my grandpa or my mom. I can't control their thoughts. But at the same time, they can't control mine. Can they influence your thoughts? Would you prefer a son because they might value boys more?"Paige retorted, "Of course not."She had experienced the hardship of gender bias herself. Therefore, she would cherish both her daughter and son equally, not favoring one over the other."Well, isn't that enough? As long as we love our children, that's what matters. As for others, whether they’ll love my children or not, it's their problem," Chris said.Paige nodded.After that, she arranged the gifts from Zander, took a photo, and posted it on her social media.If she only posted her mother-in-law's gifts and not her grandfather-in-law's, what would he think? Surely, he would believe she did not like the gifts he gave

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.

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
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!

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
