New Romance in Marriage Chapter 505 Everyone Wants a Promotion and a Raise
Paige: [Are you really so concerned about Niel now?]Chris: [Occasionally, I still need to show some concern. After all, we've been like brothers for so many years.]Paige was at a loss for words.Chris: [What if Niel's wild thoughts lead him to do something, and people who don't know think I did something to him?]Paige: [That actually makes sense.]Chris: [It doesn’t just make sense; it makes a lot of sense.]Paige: [Yeah, you're right, honey. You're absolutely right.]Chris: [Well, a wise man listens to advice.]Chris: [Do you need something?]Paige: [Well, honey, I thought about how hard you work for me and our kid. I felt bad, so I made some desserts. I'll have them sent to the office later. What do you think?]Chris: [Huh? You made them?]Paige: [Yes, I did.]Chris: [Then, by all means, bring them.]Paige: [Alright. I'll bring them in a bit.]Chris: [Hmm.]Paige started to change. Then, with the prepared snacks, she had the driver take her to the office.…Upon e
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 506 Hard Work
"Chef Willy has taught many apprentices over the years, but none of them can replicate his taste exactly," Chris remarked.Then, he chuckled. "If you can recreate Chef Willy's taste exactly, well, those five-star hotels might end up in a fierce competition to have you as their chef."Paige thought it sounded like an exaggeration. She stared at Chris. Although his expressions and tone seemed normal, Paige felt like he was mocking her.He should know she did not make the dessert.Chef Willy had been with the Jewells for years. Chris, who had been enjoying Chef Willy's desserts for many years, could surely tell if Chef Willy made it."Yeah." Paige nodded. "That is why you should cherish me. If I go out there in the world, many men will be fighting for me."Chris looked at Paige with a half-smile but remained silent.From the looks of Chris’s smile, she had a feeling that he had seen through everything."A couple of compliments and you’re bragging already? Let me guess… Which par
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 507 Tina Can’t Handle It
Paige nodded. “Yeah, we both look quite alike. Didn't you ask about this before?"Tina chuckled. "Did I? I forgot… But do you both really look alike?""Yeah.” Paige nodded. "We really do."Tina grinned. "I'm genuinely curious. I want to see for myself what the person who looks like you looks like."Paige suggested, "If you want, just go to the company. She's at the front desk. You'll see her as soon as you enter."Tina nodded with a smile. "Okay, I'll check it out sometime."As Tina looked at Paige, it seemed like Paige did not mind having someone who looked like her at the company. People usually avoided those who resembled them, especially those with a certain status or identity, so she thought Paige would remove Ava.Surprisingly, Paige tolerated Ava staying in the company, working as a simple receptionist, greeting and sending off people every day. It was quite generous of her."Niel has seen her today," Paige added with a smile.As Niel glanced at Paige, Tina asked him,
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 508 Thank Her Lucky Stars
How could people be so different?"Hey, if we ever split, would you go looking for someone similar to replace me?" Chris asked Paige with a grin.Paige hesitated for a moment before shaking her head. "No… If we split, I'd be relieved to escape the misery. Why would I be foolish enough to find someone like you again? I'm not that dumb to dive back into misery."Chris looked at Paige, making her wonder if she had said something wrong.However, what did she say wrong?Did saying she would not want to be with someone like Chris again upset him?Chris looked at Paige and smirked.Paige dreaded that subtle curve of Chris's lips, like the legendary smirk of a domineering CEO that implied indifference and mockery."Does our marriage make you miserable?" Chris looked into her eyes and asked.It turned out she did say something wrong, but how should she explain it?Paige frantically thought about how to explain herself, or he would not let her off today.Chris did not rush Paige eithe
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 509 Tina Gives Paige Advice
"Yeah. I brought up Ava first, but wasn't it just to mess with Chris and Paige? Why the heck would I want to mess with them? What or who am I doing this for?" Tina was fuming. "Am I doing it for myself? But why would I want to pick a fight with them for my own sake?"Niel responded coolly, "Isn't it because you had a miscarriage while Paige's son is safe and sound in her belly?"Tina's eyes reddened with anger. "Niel, you jerk! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have anything to do with Chris and Paige. What does Paige's son have to do with me? I did all this for you because I love you. I see your interests as mine, and that's why I treat Chris as an enemy."Niel looked at Tina, understanding her intentions. Tina was indeed looking out for him, aligning their interests, but what good was it?For him, Tina was just a liability, unable to help him in both career and life.Back then, they could not secure their position by having a son as their first child. After finally conceivin
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 510 Undercover Agent
Take her pregnancy, for instance, which prompted Niel to bunk separately and engage in some questionable camaraderie with Sarah.While their relationship might lack substance, the air between them was undeniably charged. Paige could not help but ponder Tina's words. Was it possible that Niel did not put Ava in the company?Speculations about Ava's origins had always lingered in Paige's mind. Her initial suspicion leaned toward Niel orchestrating Ava's entry into the company to lure Chris away and wreak havoc on their marital bliss. However, Tina's tone hinted otherwise.If Niel indeed arranged Ava's presence, Tina, being Niel's wife, should be in the loop. Yet, Tina's revelation suggested otherwise. Deciding to probe further, Paige looked at Tine with surprise. "Isn't Ava your husband's doing?"Tina muttered, "Niel?"Paige raised an eyebrow, wondering if 'husband' was now an outdated term for them."Isn't it?"Tina paused and finally replied, "I don't know."In the facade
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 511 Gloria and Ava
Paige stared at Tina and said seriously, "I'm telling the truth."Tina responded with a skeptical expression."You don't believe me?" Paige inquired.Tina raised an eyebrow. "Should I believe such nonsense?"Paige asked, puzzled, "Why don't you believe me? Think about it carefully. With Chris's capabilities, dealing with Niel would be a piece of cake if he wanted to. Why is Niel still fine and kicking until now?"Tina remained silent and thought it made sense."It’s because Chris has no intention of taking down Niel. No matter what Niel does or thinks about him, Chris won't fight back. In his heart, he genuinely considers Niel as a brother. His biggest wish is for the two brothers to work together to make the Jewell Group prosper," Paige explained earnestly.Tina remained skeptical, gazing at Paige. Logically, she felt she should not believe Paige, but upon careful consideration, Paige's words seemed to make a lot of sense.As Niel's wife, who had been married to him for many y
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 512 A Scary Night
Ava stayed silent."Back when the Madam came to intern at the company during her term break, she worked in the secretary's office. I can tell through my observations that Mr. Jewell genuinely loves and dotes on her." Gloria chuckled. "I've been by Mr. Jewell's side for many years, and this is the first time I've seen him treat a woman so well. Of course, Madam deserves it. She's a particularly gentle, kind, and lovely woman.""I see." Ava nodded, unsure of how else to react.She vaguely understood Gloria's meaning. Gloria was not consoling Ana but rather telling the latter that Chris’s relationship with his wife was solid, and trying to make a move on Chris was simply impossible."Mr. Jewell may seem cold and heartless, but in reality… he is indeed cold and heartless. I've been with Mr. Jewell for many years, whether in life or work, I've only seen him gentle and indulgent toward Madam. To others, he is cold, indifferent, and emotionless," Gloria said."Did you follow the gossip

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

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! 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
