Virginity in second marriages

Chapter 98: Alone again

Everyone gathered together as if there were countless gray clouds that made heavy atmosphere. Her

heartbeat made her choke. She almost felt like dying.

But at that moment Cristian Ferrari easily resolved all those symptoms of hers.

"I'm sorry..." Serena Gallo could only apologize in a low voice, "It seems like I'm just making trouble for

you, if not..."

"What? Do you want to back out already? Now you are only here as my escort. In the future as Mrs.

Ferrari you will have to attend even bigger meetings. Will you always want to back out?"

What? Serena was shocked by those words and for a while she could not recover.

What did it mean in the future as Mrs. Ferrari? They...won't they divorce in the future?

The moment Serena was surprised by those words, Cristian realized what he had just said, frowned

and looked at her.

There she was, her head in the clouds again. She must be thinking about what he just said?

Inexplicably Cristian felt a little uncomfortable, "Did you hear what I said?"

His words brought Serena Gallo back to her senses. She nodded dryly, "I understood." The expression

on her face was adorable. Her eyes were confused but matched well with the blue-gray skirt she was

wearing. She pushed Cristian Ferrari walking behind him. They looked like a nice couple.

As they walked, no one came to disturb them, not because they didn't want to get intimate with Cristian

Ferrari, but because he was a difficult person to deal with.

Finally Mr. Bianchi, who was the one who organized the party came to greet him with a toast.

"It is my honor that Mr. Cristian is coming here today."

Cristian Ferrari looked at him and said in a flat voice, "Last time when we were in the office to deal with

business affairs I left early. Today I am here to apologize."

Apologize? Mr. Cristian of the Ferrari Family Group was apologizing to others?

No one believed it, but Cristian said it openly, which had been enough to show the sign of respect for

Lorenzo Bianchi.

Mr. Lorenzo, on the other hand, was calm. He had excellent self-control, raised his glass, and made the

toast to Cristian, "Thank you very much."

After that, his gaze fell on Serena who stood behind Cristian Ferrari.

Under Mr. Lorenzo's gaze, Serena suddenly became nervous.

Mr. Lorenzo's gaze shifted to her and looked at Cristian, "Mr. Cristian?"

Cristian understood, motioning Serena to get closer.

"I have to go upstairs and talk with Mr. Lorenzo."

Serena became nervous, "Talk with Mr. Lorenzo? Shall I accompany you?"

"No, you stay here."

Serena's face paled slightly: "Me, I'm staying here?"

"Wait fifteen minutes for me."

"Okay." She had no other choice but nodded.

Soon Luca and Cristian disappeared. Before leaving Cristian told her not to wander around and to wait

for him there.

As she saw Cristian disappear before her eyes, Serena felt a little uncomfortable.

The last time she attended a party, she was his assistant and he left her alone that time. This time she

was his date but at that moment she was alone again.

As soon as Cristian left with Mr. Lorenzo, Serena was left all alone. Already since they had entered,

many had been curious about her identity. But fearing Cristian's presence no one dared to ask

questions. From the moment he left, there were some who could not stop themselves from asking.

"Mr. Cristian had never brought a date to a party. How come he suddenly changed today?"

"I heard that Mr. Cristian got married a short while ago. Could it be-"

"No!" a clear, crisp voice interrupted their conversation. Serena Gallo's hands gripped. She tried to

calm herself and looked at them, "Hello everyone, I am Mr. Cristian's new assistant. My name is

Serena Gallo."

"Your name is Serena Gallo? I heard that Mr. Cristian's wife's name is Aurora Gallo..."

Serena's face paled, "Really? I'm really lucky to have the same last name as Mr. Cristian's wife."

She had not forgotten Cristian's words. He could not let others know that she was his wife, as she was

a disgrace to him.

"Really? His wife's last name is Gallo, also his assistant's last name. Are you really not the same

person?"

Serena tried to keep the smile on her face, "I'm flattered, but we're really not the same person."

"Oh, then he really is the assistant."

"This is the first time I've seen that Mr. Cristian has a female assistant and it's not his wife."

Serena got nervous again. She began to see blurrily, bit her lower lip and slowly moved out of their

sight hiding in a corner.

She found a quiet place to sit, whereupon the eyes focused on her gradually disappeared. She calmed

down and her vision became clear.

She saw a glass of red wine on the table, picked it up to drink it but remembering that she was

pregnant she put the glass back down.

As soon as she put the glass down a male voice rang out.

"Serena, may I have a dance?"

The voice that sounded suddenly startled Serena; she looked in amazement at the person in front of

her. It was a friendly-looking man who looked at her with a kind smile.

Serena quickly shook her head, "Thank you but I don't know how to dance."

"Never mind. I can teach you."

Serena lowered her eyes, "I'm really sorry but I don't know how to dance."

The man looked a little disappointed but continued to smile, "Okay, if you don't want to dance. Can I

buy you a drink?"

Drink? Serena looked at him again. He looked like a good person but his intentions were obvious. After

thinking about it, Serena rejected him again.

"I can't drink." Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The man said, "If that's the case then I won't force you."

"Look at that. She is just an assistant but she is so arrogant. Riccardo Fontana, are you that cowardly?"

When the man was about to leave, a familiar voice suddenly sounded with coldness and sarcasm.

Serena heard that voice and her eyes widened. She looked toward the man who was coming.

Enrico Romano, who had not been seen for a long time, appeared in front of Serena. Behind him

followed his three men. He walked strangely, compared to the first time Serena met him, full of

enthusiasm and sleeping with several women. Now he looked like a stray dog.

When she saw him, Serena immediately stood up.

"What, are you afraid to see me?" Enrico Romano looked at Serena with an insidious smile, said to

Riccardo Fontana, "Riccardo as a man you are too much of a coward. She is just a little assistant and

doesn't respect you at all. What an ungrateful and shameless person! You shouldn't let her get away

with that."

Riccardo Fontana was a gentleman and in the face of those vulgar words he could not help but frown.

"Mr. Enrico Romano, what you are saying...is a bit of an exaggeration. I don't force anyone to do what

they don't want to do. Even if it was just an assistant you always show respect."
