New Romance in Marriage Chapter 682 Taking Care of the Baby Herself
It was all just too much, really.Just coming back from the hospital, and it was already this extravagant?What about Hunter’s baby shower or his first birthday? Would those not be even more extravagant?Paige finally felt like her son was being treated like a cherished little prince.Honestly, over the past couple of days in the hospital, apart from being there during the birth, none of the Jewell elders had come to the hospital. It was only Chris who stayed with her.She had thought maybe the Jewell elders were not as fond of the little one. However, now, it seemed she had misunderstood.Perhaps they just did not want to disturb her at the hospital and thought she needed to rest after giving birth. After all, having the elders around would make her uncomfortable, and she would have to muster up the energy to deal with them.Paige carried the child into the house. As soon as they entered, Ann took the baby from her and placed him in the stroller. The Jewell elders gathered arou
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 683 Shot Herself in the Foot
Chris glanced over and noticed the baby had wet himself, so he quickly changed to a fresh diaper. His movements, though a bit clumsy, were very careful and gentle."Why wasn’t he like this at the hospital?" Paige asked, feeling a bit overwhelmed.Chris smiled and replied, "Well, of course not. In the hospital, to ensure you slept well at night, the nanny took care of the baby."In the VIP ward, there were accompanying beds where the nanny slept. The baby carriage was placed next to their bed. Whenever Hunter wakes up, without giving Hunter a chance to cry loudly, the nanny will go to comfort him, change his diaper, or feed him.So, for the two nights in the hospital, Paige slept very well. She slept until dawn without being awakened by the baby's crying.Paige was a little dazed.Was that so?She had thought Hunter was a one-of-a-kind obedient baby who did not cry and slept through the night. It turned out that it was all just her misunderstanding."Did you cry a lot when y
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 684 All-Nighter Showdown
Paige glanced at Chris. Noting the smirk playing at the corners of his lips, she shot him an irritated look.Chris was smart enough to know what she meant.Yet, he deliberately chose to say it just to force her to admit she was wrong."Fine." Paige nodded.If Chris wanted to be stubborn, then she could be too. There was no way she was losing."What you said is true. The child is ours, not the nanny's. Entrusting our child to a nanny is irresponsible. No matter how much love others give, it can't replace parental love. Parental love is special and unique. The child will sleep with us tonight. You don't need to sleep in the guest room, either. The child not only needs a mother's love but also a father's love," Paige said.If they had to, they would pull an all-nighter.Endure through it, and it would pass.According to the moms on the Reddit forum, babies usually became easier to handle after the postpartum period. They would not cry incessantly at night, with some babies even sl
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 685 Niel Confronts Pierre
Chris was such a schemer, with thoughts as deep as the ocean and schemes as ruthless as they come. He had let his guard down too much. When Pierre came knocking, Niel walked right into their trap without a hint of suspicion. Looking back, his relationship with Pierre used to be alright. While not great, it was better than now. Pierre suddenly showing up wanting to collaborate against Chris should have set off alarm bells, but Niel was too preoccupied. With Paige about to give birth, he was nervous and eager to do something, so he overlooked it. Chris and Pierre must have known he was itching to act with Paige's due date approaching, which was why Pierre's sudden offer caught him off guard. If Pierre had shown up any other time, he would have been skeptical. He would not have given Chris and Pierre a chance. Unfortunately, he was too hasty.Niel found Pierre, intercepting him on his way to work, and Pierre's face was grim upon seeing Niel.Except for handing over the videos
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 686 Shelly and Pierre Fights
Why did Shelly not tell him?How could she keep such things from him when they were husband and wife?He told Shelly everything and always looked out for her, but what about Shelly?Why was it so important for her to see Niel, and why did she not tell him? What was Shelly's motive? Why did she go to Niel and say those things?If she truly did not want him to make a big deal out of it, she could have told him to go see Niel. Why did she have to go to Niel herself?He just did not get it. Did she secretly care for him and not want him to know?He did not think Shelly was like that.He was more inclined to believe what Niel said — that Shelly went to Niel, pretending to tell him not to make a fuss but actually hinting to Niel to make a fuss. The bigger the fuss, the more serious the consequences and impact.If there was no surveillance camera in the room for that Luna thing, Luna would not be able to clear her name, and it would still somewhat affect Chris.Was Shelly playing t
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 687 Pierre Wakes Up
Pierre gazed at Shelly.If Shelly had said something like that back then, he would have believed her and been touched by her steadfast support. However, he doubted Shelly now. Was she really looking out for him?If she was worried about causing him harm, why did she not stop him from doing it in the first place?Why did she go out of her way to remind Niel?"Are you using me?" Pierre looked at Shelly and asked.Taken aback, Shelly looked at Pierre with disbelief and shock. "Pierre, what are you saying? I'm using you?""Yeah." Pierre nodded at her. "Are you using me to go against Chris and Luna?”Shelly started to panic.She had not expected Pierre to doubt her because how could he? Pierre loved her so much. In the past, Pierre would believe whatever she said, but was he starting to doubt her now?Did that mean Pierre did not love her as much as before?She knew that many men were very loving toward a woman before they got her, trying all means to win her over, but once th
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 688 Pierre Hits Shelly
Shelly shook her head with tears streaming down her face. "No… No, Pierre, that’s not it."Pierre said to Shelly, his voice flat, "Stop crying. Your tears mean nothing to me now.""Pierre…” Shelly cried as she gripped Pierre's hand tightly. It felt as though Pierre was about to give up on her, and she was terrified. Hence, she held onto Pierre's hand tightly, unwilling to let go."I was so stupid," Pierre said. "I gave up everything for a woman like you. I abandoned my parents, my wealth, and my status. Shelly, the biggest regret of my life is meeting you."If he had not met Shelly, he would not have suffered so much over the years or be in his current predicament.When he said he regretted it, Shelly let go of his hand.She had practically begged him with tears in her eyes, but Pierre remained unmoved.For so many years, even with Chris, she had only ever pleaded with Chris and begged him to love her.Who did Pierre think he was? He was just a backup. How dare he act high an
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 689 Shelly and Pierre Get Physical
Anyone could say he deserved to end up in his current predicament for a woman, but not Shelly. When Shelly finally came to her senses, she turned to glare at Pierre with eyes filled with hatred. "How dare you hit me?"Pierre sneered. "So what? Shelly, you're truly heartless. Don’t we all know why I’m in this situation today? It's all because of you, and not only do you not appreciate it, but how can you say those things about me too? Everyone has the right to say that about me except you!"Shelly sneered too. "I don't? Why don't I? Pierre, look at the life we're living now. Don't I have the right to say that about you? I’m in this situation all because of you. I can say that because you're a worthless trash. As a man, you can't even provide a good life for your wife and child. That shows you're an incompetent, useless piece of trash. Only useless men hit women because it is the only way to prove yourself and that you're not entirely useless."Pierre was gritting his teeth and star

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.

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
