Loveless Marriage

Being stepmother of my two children?

"Christian, have some as well." She deliberately nudged Lexie arm, "Don't just eat by yourself. Help

Christian get some of his favourite dishes."

"No need, I have already had dinner. I'll just drink some wine with Mr. Perez." Christian didn't even

bother using his fork. He just poured himself another half glass of wine.

"Already had... " Lexie was startled.

Mallory also looked over curiously, slightly narrowing her eyes, "You have had dinner? Why so early

tonight? "

He should be just getting off work when she called him. Why had he already had dinner yet?"

Or?

"Yes, I had dinner with a friend." Christian didn't say much about it. He then clinked his glass at Lexie's

cousins who had raised their glasses to toast him. His expression was very indifferent.

"What kind of friend? Introduce to us someday, Mr. Miller." These brothers replied with a smile.

Although they had some assets, they were still far from being rich as people like Christian. It was

impossible for them to get into that kind of social elite circle. If any of their family member got married to

the Christian, then they would be able to know many real rich and educated people in the future.

Lexie looked at her two cousins in disgust, but didn't say a word. She turned her eyes and looked at

Christian, thinking that she would refuse them unwittingly, but she hadn't expected that he would say

yes to their request.

"Sure, I have a friend who really likes to make friends. He is doing real estate and almost good at

everything. It's just that he likes to go to nightclub. I can introduce him to you guys later."

Lexie was startled, her face darkened. Christian's words was more humiliating than a direct rejection.

The friend that he spoke of was clearly Adrian. That guy was a classic example of an old clansman. He

usually spent hundreds of thousands dollars at a time, and had all kinds of people in his friend circle.

Unbeknownst to them, the two cousins immediately stood up, overjoyed, to pour him a full glass of

wine. "Haha...you are too magnanimous. I think our Lexie doesn't need to look for a boyfriend. Why

don't you two have a try?"

Everyone suddenly went silent.

The atmosphere was pushed to the climax of the dinner.

Everyone had different thoughts and expressions. And the most nervous one was of course Lexie, who

stared unblinkingly at the Christian's expression.

Mallory coughed and laughed, "I also think so. I like Lexie very much, Christian. You can tell us your

opinion about it."

Carl took the opportunity to say, "That's right, Christian. You and Lexie have known each other for more

than ten years. It's better to have someone close to you as your girlfriend."

Christian placed the glass on the table slowly. He looked around at the crowd, then calmly said with a

smile, "Mr. Perez, if you really care about your daughter, why would you be willing to let her marry a

divorced man? In other words, with her outstanding young and beautiful looks, she could find a man

way better than me. If she was my sister, I would definitely break that man's legs. "

Hearing this, Everyone was shocked.

Lexie's parents were so angry that they almost couldn't control themselves. They glared at him, unable

to speak.

Lexie could no longer endure it. Biting her lower lip, she said loudly: "I don't care about that, Christian.

as long as you are willing, we can immediately get married."

Christian indifferently listened to her passionate confession, then asked: "You're not going to ask about

your parents' opinions?"

"They respect my choice. You don't need to worry about them." She anxiously said.

Lexie's cousins wanted to say something, but stopped at the second thought.

As long as she married Christian, she would have enough wealth to live her entire life.

Christian then turned to Mallory, "You also respect my decision, mom?"

Mallory pursed her lips, and answered with a strong attitude, "I only have my eyes on Lexie."

Christian went silent for two seconds, then mocked, "So you also want to the stepmother of my two

children?"

"Wait!" Mallory's face darkened, she then asked in shock, "Two, two children?"

Her eyes were full of suspicion.

So Isabella was having twins?

Twins...

Excitement immediately welled up in her heart.

If they were really Christian's children, she would have two grandchildren in a few months. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Looking at Mallory, Lexie suddenly felt anxious. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Christian, are you

sure that they are yours?"

"Chil, children?" People from the Perez's were all stunned.

Didn't he just get divorced? How did he get two children all of sudden?

Christian smiled faintly: "I don't need others to tell me whether they are mine or not."

This was the first time he told them Isabella's children were his.

Mallory quickly calmed down from her joy, "A paternity test can tell whose the children are. However, it

had nothing to do with your marriage. I like Lexie, and you should marry no one else."

"Well, before the babies were born, I won't consider about anything else. Mom, is it okay?"

"You!" Mallory choked again.

Although she felt herself was on the verge of bursting with anger, she also knew that if she continued to

be tough and argued with Christian, it would only embarrass the two families.

The only reason he patiently talked to them so much was to save his mother's face.

She took a deep breath and then coldly said, "Alright, I'll give you some more time. After that, you have

to give me and Lexie an explanation."

"Mrs. Miller... " Lexie was so anxious that even her eyes started to turn red, but in her heart, she felt so

much hatred that she clenched her teeth.

How could she not understand what Mallory meant? In the end, she still sided with her son and

deliberately wasted time to protect the reputation of their family.

Mallory fondled her forehead, coaxing her softly, "It's alright, I'll talk to him later."

...

After Isabella finished dinner with Naomi, Canon arrived.

Then she directly went home by his car.
