Laura's chin slightly tilted upwards, her voice filling with an innate pride. Hearing this, Maximo lifted his face and glanced at the frozen Christine standing there. His gaze quickly shifted away and did not come forward to meet her.He went completely beyond her control.Christine "…"She stood there and watched as if she was watching a documentary where that golden—haired girl called Anna finally walked out of her illness and played with her peers. And she, the fluffy rabbit that had been thrown into the dustbin, was watching them alone."Young master, breakfast is served!" Elliot walked in from outside with a plate in his hands. When he entered, he saw that he was already eating breakfast. He froze in place and his voice stuck in his throat.Elliot's voice brought Christine back to reality. She walked forward, and looked at Laura coldly, "Didn't I already fire you? Why are you still here?""Dismissed?" Laura sat there, looking elegant and at ease, as if she was at home, "Christine
Amid all this chaos in Christine's life, more dramas are going around her. Carla and Michelle. Everything in their life has turned into a mess."What is wrong with you, Michelle? Why are you behaving like this baby?" Carla asked trying to touch her husband when he pushed her away."Get lost!" He glared at her coldly and stood up, wanting to leave.Carla stared at him blankly, in immense pain. It's been a long time and he is avoiding her like a plague. And for the last few days, he is too distant from her as if he hates her!Carla tried to be patient with him but the more she tried to make it sort the more it's turning messy. She felt defeated, helpless and angry at the same time."Michelle!" She exclaimed. "Stop right there! You have to tell me what happened to you! I am your wife! Your child's mother and what are you trying to do by behaving like a jerk!? You are so mean and unfair to us!"Michelle paused on his track. He turned to face his so-call wife who has ruined his life. He is
On the other hand, in the Lombardi Palace..."Christine!" Maximo roared hysterically. He glared at her leaving back, a look of panic flashed past his eyes.He suddenly pushed Laura aside and ran after her."Ah!" Laura was pushed to the side and fell to the floor. "Christine! What are you running for?" Her hand was grabbed from the back, and her entire body was dragged to the side.Maximo stood in front of her and casually wore a bathrobe. Even his belt wasn't tied up, revealing his sexy and wet chest. He glared at her, "Where are you going? Say it clearly! What do you mean I won? What do you mean?"What do you mean? What did he mean by asking her?Christine raised her tearful eyes to look at his furious face, "According to what you said, I agree to break up with you."Maximo "…"The hand she was holding her with, instantly froze. A hint of dullness flashed past his golden eyes and quickly disappeared.Agreed. Did she agree just like that?Christine struggled to let go of his hand. C
'The baby is not yours, she said.'Maximo's hand froze, the tip of his pen drew a line across the paper, he raised his eyes and glared at her, "What did you say?"Christine sat there and slowly raised her face to look at him, her voice indifferent and distant, "Actually you guessed right, the baby is not yours. Though it's not Michelle's either. It was... It was just a whim of mine. I had a one-night stand with a random stranger when I left you. It was just that I didn't want to leave you, so I lied."As Maximo sat there, his slender hands suddenly grabbed onto the pen tightly. His face was ugly to the extreme, a sinister look surfaced in his eyes."I wasn't pregnant all those times before, but after that night, I was pregnant. It was indeed not that coincidental." She laughed lightly, throwing away all of her dignity, and then looked at Maximo with contempt, "Maximo, you have been checking your body regularly, didn't you?""Say that again!" He suddenly stood up and furiously threw h
Christine walked out of the mansion with her luggage on. There was a luxury car parked outside the side door."Christine, the driver will send you to the place you want to go. This car will belong to you from now on." Elliot chased and said to Lily."I don't need a car." She said lightly.She looked up at the proud big castle and then smiled softly at him, "I have already taken what I need. I don't want anything else." She said.In her heart, she has taken a baby from Maximo. Maybe not him, but a part of him would accompany her all along, right?Elliot did not argue anymore, instead, "Miss Smith at least should take the bus. After today's press conference, there will definitely be a lot of reporters watching you. It's too ostentatious to be walking alone." He warned her. As expected, she was still afraid of the media staring at her and spouting nonsense.In the past, Maximo had helped her block the wind and rain, but now, it was he who pushed her out. After thinking about it, she did
A Few Days Later of their breakup...In the huge bedroom, outside the French windows, the night was beautiful. A grand piano was quietly inside, and Laura was standing by the bed, wearing a sexy band dress.Maximo was dressed neatly as he sat in a corner, holding onto his legs and falling asleep. The president of the 'ZZZ' sat in a corner and fell asleep. How could he be like this?Laura frowned. Sometimes she really felt that Maximo has no aura of nobility at all, not enough to be a gentleman, not enough to be gentle, and sometimes he could even swear.Maybe it was because he stayed with commoners like Christine for too long, it would be better in the future. She would make him better."Maximo..." She squatted down and patted his arm. With love in her eyes, her voicebecame softer, "Don't sleep on the floor, go sleep on the bed."Maximo sat motionlessly in the corner; his handsome face expressionless. His eyes were tightly shut and his brows were knitted. He even looked worried when
"What do you mean?" She walked over and coldly replied."I have said it already!" Maximo's voice carried a trace of anger and had aquestioning attitude, "Why don't you come and officially announce it with me!"She glared at him angrily. "Stop acting like that you don't understand it, Maximo! This is all your plan! You ate overdoing it! The little press conference would do nothing for you!""What a joke!" He sneered, "Do you think that I, Owen, care about your dog nest? Is there any evidence?"Christine "…""Let me tell you, Christine, I am a very busy man and don't think of relying on me for everything." He said angrily, "If you want to use something like this press conference as an excuse to not cut ties with me, you are wrong! One little press conference is a lot to me! Our relationship has been announced and everyone thinks we ate together! How will I get married peacefully to someone else when publicly it's you in my current woman list?"He suppressed the Victorious smile because
"Congratulations, Christine. You are having twins." Sophia smiled at Christine."Twins?" She looked at her in shock and stood up to walk to the desk. How could it suddenly be a twin? She had never heard of it before."Yes, you see." She patiently explained some professional knowledge to her, and then said, "Previously, I didn't dare to be completely sure, so I didn't tell you. This time, it's obvious."Sophia said and watched her friend. She brought her to the city hospital for a checkup. Sophia stood up and went out asking her to seat there.Christine was so happy when she knew that she was pregnant with twins. She wants to share the news so badly. Who could she share it with?She took out her phone and swiped it across the screen. Maximo's contact number was still on her phone, and she almost touched it with her fingers.The sound of a door opening awakened her thoughts. Her fingers left the screen.Is she crazy? Could it be that she wanted to call Maximo and tell him, 'Look, we are
CHRISTINE...The doctor handed the ultrasonogram to me. My babies are fine and I am happy with this fact.I took the report and stood up to leave when the door burst open and the man with aura entered. He took the ultrasonogram report from my hand and watched it as I raised my brow at him.His golden eyes fell on mine as he smiled sheepishly and then hugged me, "I am sorry. I am trying." He muttered like a child and I couldn't help but smile at him before hugging him by the neck and suppressing the smile, "You better be succeeded."Yeah, you guessed right. It's Maximo Lombardi.That day, both I and Victoria are saved. Her husband and brother (the family adopted her), our mother and brother and Maximo, saved us.Her husband Alessandro killed Manchini in rage. And after meeting our mother and me, she left with her husband promising us to return after taking care of things in New York.And me? Well, I return to the Martinez mansion with my mother a brother. Not the private island one. I
CHRISTINE'S POV...I felt a sharp pain in my neck. My head is throbbing and feeling too weak to even move. Still, I tried but suddenly realised I can't!I fluttered my eyes open only to meet immense darkness around me! I couldn’t recall anything and felt dizzy.Where am I? I tried to understand the place but it is nothing but a dark cell. I pressurised my brain and soon everything started coming before my eyes.David! He did this to me! But, why!?I thought and then suddenly realised one thing. David works for Martinez who kidnapped me at first. If they want me to be this miserable, then why didn't do it the first time and kept me safe?I always knew that nothing good is acceptable in my luck. If anything ever goes in a good direction, it would change its way immediately.I sighed. I don't know anymore. Just want my twins to be saved and nothing else! I looked around but in a risky place, no one is there! I am all alone.When I was fighting myself whether to call for help or not, I he
"Are you sure about it, Doctor?" Mario asked in shock. As he was sitting beside his mother in Doctor Chen's office.The doctor nodded, pushing the report to them. "Her DNA matches with you 99%. Undoubtedly, she is your daughter, Miss Martinez." Doctor Chen confirmed again.Diane sat on her seat and stared at the report. Doctor Chen excused himself from the office and let the mother and son talk for some time.Mario, caressed his mother's hand, "Mom, it's alright. It's a happy news, right?" He knows how his mom missed her daughters whom she thought died while giving birth.But this one news? It's such a shock and happy moment for them! For her!Diane caressed the report, trying to feel the reality closely. "It's just like a dream, Mario. I was informed that they died but now? One came back to me." She turned to her son in excitement, "Do you think I will find the other one? Is she alive too?"Mario's heart clenched at his mother's excitement. He holds her hands. "Mom, calm down. I will
At the same time, On the private island of Italy ...Diane was sitting in the dining area with Christine. She watched her eating breakfast and feeling happy, she didn't know the reason even herself!Christine looked up at her and find Diane staring at her. She blinked and once again looked down to eat.For the last two days, She is staying here with her kidnappers. In her life, she never thought that kidnapping could lead her to this life!Lady Diane is always taking care of her since she brought her to the main Palace and Christine accepted it well. She does not feel uncomfortable with Diane, instead, there is a homey feeling always.Even her son Mario too never made her uncomfortable in any way.However, nothing in her life stayed permanently and that is what Christine is scared of. What if she loses it again? Moreover, she couldn't get to contact with Anna and Sophia, she just hopes they don't get too worried for her."What are you thinking, Christine? Is there anything wrong with
"Maximo, you paranoid beast! Why haven't you come to me yet? What do you mean by 'it's good'? You have never been gentle to me before!" An angry voice rang in his ear.It was Christine.Maximo sat on the ground, so tired that he couldn't even open his eyes, and spoke with a hoarse voice, "Sorry, Christine, I was wrong."He knew he was wrong. He shouldn't have pushed her away. He shouldn't have hurt her."You are wrong? Why didn't you come to me? You are still sleeping here? Who wants you to be so useless, so anxious and so decadent? Go and find the evidence, and find out where I am!"Christine scolded beside his ear nonstop.Her voice was very soft, but her scolding was indescribably strong."I can't find you. I am sorry." Maximo said in a low voice, full of guilt."I don't want to hear sorry! Wake up! Maximo! If you continue like this, I will be torn apart because of you! Then even if I die, I will curse you forever! Wake up! Did you hear that? Quickly find me!"Christine scolded him
Two days after the incident at the hospital ...In London, Everything was the same as usual. The best place in London was the mysterious Imperial Castle.In the depths of the lush green forest, the castle was towering and extraordinary, exuding a grand atmosphere.Within the castle, a deathly stillness repressed the air. The servants walked in groups of twos and threes, not daring to make a sound.Their heads were always lowered, and they didn't dare to walk in the hall of the castle unless they were on duty.As soon as the gate of the castle opened, the entire area turned into a mess. Elliot stood in the hall with the depressed atmosphere, directing people to bring out the destroyed furniture, and then send in the exact same furniture.The servants did not even dare to move the furniture. Even if their master were upstairs, they would not be able to hear a sound.However, they did not dare to. On the third floor. A tall figure sat on the balcony, his back straight against the post, h
On the other hand, Christine was eating the delicious foods that has been placed for her. She has thought about it and there is no meaning to let her babies suffer.She wants them to come into this world and live happily and she would support them from the bottom of her heart. They would be her family only.As she was eating and almost done, the door of the Fort room opened and the familiar butler came inside.She was in the middle of her chewing and seeing the middle-aged man, she swallowed the food and looked at him.Charles's eyes fell on the plate and he was quite impressed by her appetite. She finished almost all of it! He actually thought she would rebel and not eat but she proved him wrong. He did not think much about it and politely spoke, "My signora and maestro want to see you."Christine blinked her eyes. 'Signora and Maestro?' She thought. At least, she knows what that is, as a writer sometimes she needed to mention things from different languages to portray the character
Italy...Christine is headed to Italy now.However, being at sea, her sickness has not completely recovered. After the repeated bumps, Christine has to vomit several times a day.After that, she fell onto the bed and passed out. After an unknown amount of time, she felt that it has been a few days and nights since the last time she was born.She was unwell and was asleep. The last time she woke up, Christine saw that the room in front of her was not a room on the boat.The entire room was circular, its area was large, the decorations were elegant and quiet, and there was even a light fragrance floating in the air, causing one's mind to be at ease.'Where is this?' She muttered as sat up in bed with eyes open, and looked around the room in confusion.The window was very small, but the room is so big. Why is this window so small?From the window, it looked like the blue sky was just around the corner from where she raised her hand.Christine stood by the window and looked down, only to
Christine didn't know where she has been brought to, she was in a daze the whole time.After a while, she woke up and saw a few foreigners in the carriage. Her neck hurt.When she woke up again, she didn't dare to open her eyes. She could only pretend to be unconscious.'What is this? Kidnapping? What was the use of kidnapping me? I don't have any money.' She murmured in her mind.Christine faintly felt that she was on a boat. She heard the few Foreigners clinking cups in celebration and laughed exceptionally happily.They started talking in Italian and she didn't understand a bit of it. However, only two words she understood, 'cheers' and cruise ship.'So this is a cruise ship...' She thought.It was the cruise ship again. Every time she boarded the cruise, nothing good would happen.Christine was thrown into a certain spot. She felt that the voices of those people were a little far from her, and thus, she tried to open her eyes slightly.It was like a beautiful cruise ship with a gr
