New Romance in Marriage Chapter 542 I’ll be a Hundred Years Old By Then
Maybe she had gotten used to Chris constantly challenging her. That could be why she found it unsettling when Chris gave in to her."What's up?" Chris looked at Paige.It seemed like what he said did not make the young lady very happy either.Paige shook her head. "Nothing."There was no way she could say she was not used to him giving in to her. If she did, Chris would argue with her till no end. Moreover, she could not win against Chris. If she could debate with Chris, she would not mind arguing until the cows come home.Chris nodded, staying silent.Paige thought for a moment and said, "Sierra mentioned… finding a guy similar to you to hook up with Nina."She thought it was better to tell Chris about it.Chris looked at Paige in surprise.Those two sisters were up to no good.Seeing Chris's surprised expression, Paige felt a little uneasy. She did not know if he was unhappy or bothered by it."A substitute?" Chris asked.Paige did not expect Chris to know about sub
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 543 Who’s Ava With
Chris may seem indifferent to the new receptionist, who eerily looked like Paige, but deep down, it bothered him enough to prompt a thorough investigation into Ava.Chris, after reviewing some documents, casually tucked them away. Upon sensing no further instructions from Chris, the assistant made a savvy exit from the office. Chris, with a pensive expression, decided to summon Ava through the secretary.In the secretary's office, Sandra and Margaret were occupied elsewhere, leaving only the idle Gloria. When Gloria received Chris's directive, a faint sense of unease swept over her. It seemed trouble always found its way to her.Finally, Chris had noticed Ava. Gloria skipped the phone call and personally went to get Ava from reception. During that, Gloria toyed with the idea of sending a secret message to Paige but ultimately resisted. She could not act rashly.What could Chris want with Ava? It was perhaps not the melodramatic gossip circulating within the company, and
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 544 Stake His Life On It
"Get out," Chris said, clearly not interested in prolonging the conversation with Ava."Okay."Ava, filled with confusion, exited the office.She did not understand what Chris meant. He knew she was here on Randall's behalf, so why keep her in the company?It was truly beyond her comprehension.On the other hand, Gloria had long abandoned her post leaning against the door because she realized the door was too thick and of good quality, offering excellent soundproofing. As she could not hear a thing, she waited outside, anticipating Ava's exit.Before long, Ava walked out, her eyes red.Gloria was surprised, wondering if Ava had cried and why.Did Mr. Jewell scold her to tears?Concerned, Gloria walked up to Ava. "What happened? Is everything okay? Did you get a scolding from Mr. Jewell?"Ava said, "No.""If not, what's wrong?" Gloria asked.“I’ve got sand in my eyes."Gloria wanted to roll her eyes at Ava.Chris's office was cleaned spotless by the janitors every day, s
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 545 Add Me Into It
Paige could not let Gloria, who was just looking out for her, lose her job because of that. Gloria had mentioned she quite liked her current job, and Paige also had a soft spot for Gloria.Paige pondered for a moment and then asked Chris hesitantly, "Honey… How's Ava doing at the company?"Chris raised an eyebrow, pretending to be puzzled. "Why bring her up all of a sudden?"Looking at Chris, Paige said, "Isn't she trying to flirt with you? Has there been any recent developments?"Chris chuckled. "Maybe we've misunderstood her, Paige. Ava isn't trying to flirt with me.""Huh?" Paige was puzzled.Chris smiled. "Ava has been quite reserved at work, not making any strange moves to catch my attention."Paige wondered if that was really the case. If so, why did Chris call Ava into his office today?Chris asked, "What's with the look, Paige? You seem disappointed. Are you secretly wishing Ava would flirt with me?""No." Paige shook her head."Is that so?" Chris looked at Paige
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 546 Chris is Jealous
Chris was left speechless. Was that what Gloria really thought? Was that what she told Paige? It seemed he had given Gloria too easy a job, letting her speculate all day long. That speculation was even more melodramatic than a soap opera."Do you think I'm the kind of man who forces women on me?" Chris asked Paige."Well, of course not," Paige replied."Then, why do you believe them?" Chris inquired."I don’t. I’m just relaying what others said to you," Paige clarified.Chris looked at Paige and smirked. "By relaying it to me, aren't you showing that, deep down, you believe their guesses?"Paige widened her eyes. "No, I don’t. Honey, you have to believe me. You will never force a woman on you; it'll be the women who will force themselves on you.""When those employees in the group chats said such things about you. I got angry and tried to argue with them, but… they all ganged up on me, and I couldn't argue alone," Paige said, sounding a bit distressed.Chris raised an eye
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 547 Randall Likes You
"No." Paige concealed her joy and said earnestly, "I don't feel that way at all. I think he's just meddling in our business. Our life is between the two of us, and it has nothing to do with him. Even though we've been friends and neighbors for years, he's just an outsider when it comes to our married life. He has no right to interfere in our affairs.""Really?" Chris raised an eyebrow at Paige. "Do you genuinely feel that way?"Paige nodded firmly, her expression serious. "Yes, I really do. Regardless of how we're doing, it has nothing to do with Randall. Why does he care so much?""Didn't you used to like him?" Chris asked, "Doesn't his concern move you?""Who said that?" Paige blushed and hurriedly defended herself.Chris smirked. "You seem flustered."Paige hesitated for a moment. Then, with less confidence, she said, "I'm not.""But your voice lacks conviction now," Chris remarked. "Why the lack of confidence?" Paige bit her lip in silence."You can like whoever you like.
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 548 Helping Ava
Paige sat there in silence and stared at Chris. He grinned and said, "If you want to know, just ask. I can never keep something from you."Maintaining her tough exterior, Paige retorted, "I didn’t really want to know. I just don't want people at the company getting the wrong idea about you.""Oh?" Chris raised an eyebrow and smiled. "So, did the company get the wrong idea about me, or did you?"Paige blushed as she looked awkwardly at Chris, who seemed oblivious to everything.However, she could not admit it. Admitting it would mean confessing her suspicions, and Chris would likely turn the tables on her, blaming her for not trusting him, saying she wasted his kindness, and so on. She had been down that road before too many times."Honey." Paige straightened her chest and looked at Chris with determination. "I absolutely won't get the wrong idea about you. In my heart, you're an upright, kind, and morally sound man. You would never get involved with another woman during my p
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 549 Men are Hard to Please
"That just proves you want to see." Chris concluded.Paige opened her mouth to explain but did not know where to start. All she wanted to do right now was find a needle and thread to sew her mouth shut.She wished she was mute so that she did not have to speak. Speaking was bad enough, and on top of that, she kept saying things that Chris did not want to hear, digging a hole for herself.She might be the world's worst speaker."I really don't want to see his body," Paige said.Chris chuckled coldly. "Of course, you don't want to now. Don't think I don't know how you women are more into it than us men, wanting to see the chest and abs of handsome guys.""That's other women. Not me," Paige argued stubbornly.She could not admit it.Once she admitted it, Chris would forever see her as someone obsessed with such things."Are you sure?" Chris raised an eyebrow."Yeah." Paige nodded at Chris. "I'm very honest.""So you don’t want to see another man's body besides your husband’s?

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

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

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?"

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
