New Romance in Marriage Chapter 10 The Jewells
Although Sierra was smiling, tears flowed down her cheeks. Paige’s heart went out to Sierra. Although Wendy and Bob were not fond of her, Sierra had always been kind to her. Her occasional concern was the only warmth Paige felt from the household.Paige stared at Sierra, who was crying, and opened her mouth. She wanted to say so much, but no words came out. Wendy glared at Paige, tempted to give her a piece of her mind. However, she held it together in front of Chris. She would have plenty of chances to discipline Paige later. “Come on,” Chris said indifferently. Paige glanced at Chris before turning to Wendy and Sierra. “I’ve got to go, Mom, Sierra.” Wendy kept a straight face and said nothing while Sierra nodded in tears. Paige went off with Chris. Once outside, Paige looked back through the floor-to-ceiling window to see Sierra throwing herself at Wendy to cry. It looked like Wendy was comforting Sierra.…The Quirks lived in the northern part of the city, while
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 11 Not Easy
Paige’s face went red. Those scratch marks… were from her. Chris was a stallion in bed. Too much for Paige to handle, her fingers clutched at his back. Paige used to be oblivious to the scratch marks she had left on his back. The scratches on his back were raw and bleeding, but now they had scabbed over.They must have hurt. It was a good thing Chris was not mad. On second thought, Paige believed Chris did not have the right to be angry after all he had done to her. The scratches she had caused were no more than the pain he had inflicted on her.While Paige was lost in her thoughts, Chris had taken his pants off. Paige snapped out of them and blushed even harder. She turned her face away in a fluster, her heart beating wildly.Chris looked back at Paige. He then sauntered into the walk-in closet and changed into loungewear. By the time he came out, Paige was still standing in a daze. “Take your things inside,” Chris said. “…Oh.” Paige exhaled in relief. She felt o
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 12 Mandy Jewell
Paige knew Mandy probably did not like her, but Mandy was a true lady. Despite her feelings for Paige, Mandy would always remain courteous. In fact, Paige had an idea why Mandy did not like her. Liam’s family and Frank’s family did not get along. Since Paige was Chris’ sister-in-law at the time, Paige was naturally on Chris’ side. That was the reason Mandy did not like her. “Chris, Paige,” Mandy greeted them with a smile. Even though both families were feuding, their fighting was only behind closed doors. They presented themselves as one big happy family on the surface. Chris gave a nod and took his seat. Paige sat next to Chris. Soon, the household help began food service. The household helpers served each of them different food items. “Ma’am, let us know your preference, and we will prepare your meals accordingly,” the domestic help told Paige with a smile. Paige nodded her head in acknowledgment. She glanced at the plate in front of Chris. Chris had smoked haddoc
New Romance in Marriage Chapter 13 A Good Girl
Paige had thought the Jewells would give her hell or something. While she could not speak for everyone else, Paige could feel the burning hatred from Ann. Still, no one made things difficult for her. It was an uneventful dinner. Paige sighed in relief. After dinner, she went back to her room. Since Paige was not close to the Jewells, she found it unnecessary to talk to anyone, especially with the ongoing conflict between Liam's family and Frank's family. In fact, she did not even want to go to her room, as it was technically Chris' room. However, she had nowhere else to go.It was nighttime. Knowing Chris, Paige believed he would disapprove of her going out at this hour. Honestly speaking, she really wanted to go out. Paige could use a breath of fresh air to clear her head. Everything was a blur to her since she went from being a maid of honor to a bride on her wedding day. She was just going along with whatever Chris wanted her to do like a mindless puppet. She was

Paige’s fidgeting startled Chris awake. He opened his eyes and looked at her, his hands up to no good. She blushed. “I-I have class today…” Paige said, deflecting his advances. Chris looked at the clock on the wall. It was 7:00 AM. He nibbled her ear and said, “We have time.” Paige had no words. …Paige and Chris went downstairs for breakfast. Chris walked ahead while Paige followed behind him with an embarrassed face. Most of the family members were there by the time they got to the dining room. The Jewells had strict house rules.

Chris watched Paige as she practically ran out of the car. He curled his lips and scoffed. Talk about heartless. She could not wait to get away from him, as if he was a monster.

Chris saw right through her plans. …Sierra was in a state of disarray during her few days at home.She dared not step foot out the door. The Quirks had invited many guests to the house to help with the bridal party.

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 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.

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.
