Chapter 12
Chris’s Pov
I had resolved to stay away from the man and never sit next to him.
By the time the others are seated, there are only three seats left.
“Sit down, just be like you do at home, don’t be so polite.” Warren thought I was being courteous.
“Fine.” I just sat down on the edge.
As long as Warren sits down, I can be separated from this man! ! But I didn’t expect Kenneth to sit down next to me without thinking.
What the hell does he want?
The eyes of the people in the room all fell on me, and I was deadly nervous. Kenneth’s cold gaze wandered off. “Why? I can’t sit here?”
Sally’s pov
“Uncle, this young couple just got married. Can you sit next to them?” The more I see Chris, the more I like her. She’s much prettier and gentler than that Kitty. That Kitty, at first glance, is a whore out to get the rich.
Even though the White family can not turn around now, they have been brilliant before, what business is smooth, and they are still a giant after this disaster.
Chris, my daughter-in-law, is obedient and smart, and she has a good birth. I wish my son would stop being blind.
Warren’s pov
Kenneth was quiet and I could tell he was not going anywhere, so I sat down next to him.
Thinking about what he said earlier when he asked me to give him Chris: Does Kenneth really like Chris?
The word can not be associated with the cold man, he’s interested in Chris at best.
Rumor has it he will not even go near a woman. This afternoon I saw him in the garage “playing” with a woman in the car. What for teetotal men? He’s clearly no different from anyone else.
“Everyone’s here, let us start dinner,” said the grandpa who was sitting in first place.
As soon as Chris heard about dinner, she was the first to pick up a knife and fork. It seemed that she was very hungry.
I looked at Chris through Kenneth. Her back was straight and her long white fingers expertly cut the steak with her knife and fork, but just the small movement to cut the steak showed infinite elegance.
The light from the crystal lamp fell on her, bathing her in a dim, soft light, and her elegant, aristocratic temperament made her seem as if she were in a European palace.
When I first saw her, I did not think she was amazing. But after just one look, you can not take your eyes off her.
Chris’s Pov
Actually, I had eaten well, and a chill ran down my spine. I looked at the men around me. He was shrouded in cold air, and a pair of eyes so cold it made it seem like he was trying to eat people stared coldly at me. I cringed as the knife and fork in my hand hit the plate and made a harsh sound.
“Soo, I am sorry.” I apologized hastily, what had I done wrong and why was he staring at me like that?
“Chris, do not be scared, eat slowly, do not worry.” Sally hurriedly comforted me.
“Hmm.” I do not dare look at this man again, and bury myself in bitterness as I eat.
“By the way, Warren, are all the presents ready for Chris to take home?” asked Aron, trying to ease the awkwardness.
Warren’s pov
Tomorrow you will return home. Chris and I just dealt with both of our parents. Not to mention my parents, I was not thinking about returning home at all.
“Yes, I will send Chris back to the White family tomorrow.”
“That’s good. The gifts for their family can not be shabby, we will not let their relatives feel that our Wilson family has lost etiquette.”
“Don’t worry, I have made my own arrangements.”
Chris’s Pov
I just had a headache when I heard about returning home. I only agreed to marry Warren to temporarily relieve the White family cash flow.
There is no love between him and me. I feel like I told a lie, and then I have to think of a thousand others to make up for it.
“Today I dealt with the Wilson family and tomorrow I have to deal with the White family. I felt a severe headache coming on.
“Chris, you are all back anyway. Sleep here tonight and have Warren take you to the White family in the morning.”
“This…. that’s not very good. I’d better get home.” I replied even more scared at the thought of a demon next to me.
The Wilson family thought I was staying with Warren in the new wedding house.
I looked at Warren sheepishly. I did not want to live in that house at all. If only Warren refused.
“Since you are back, you are only staying here one night.”
Warren usually disobeys his grandfather to make a good impression. It seems that there is no way out. I have to stay here tonight.
I feel helpless. “Oh, I’ll go back to my room first.” Something was wrong with me when I had Kenneth near. His cold eyes were directly on me, and Warren kept looking at Kenneth and me with thoughtful eyes. Let me get out of this wrong place quickly, I really do not want to stay here, because if anyone sees anything, I’ll be in a bad way!
Warren’s pov
My mother stared at Chris’s back and said to me, “Warren, Chris is a shy girl. You should treat her well.”
“Mom, I know.” I looked at the person who had left in a panic and my eyes deepened.
When I went back to my room, I saw Chris lying by the window with a serious face. “What are you looking at?”
Chris’s Pov
I looked at the window, thinking that the man would not be so bold as to enter through the window in Warren’s presence, would he?
Suddenly a voice rang out that made my body tremble and I collapsed into Warren’s arms.
“I am sorry, Mr. Warren, but I was so engrossed.” I rushed out of his arms.
I held the quilt and pillow on the carpet. “Mr. Warren, I’ll sleep on the floor tonight and you’ll sleep in the bed.”
He and I have already made an agreement, and we will never cross the rules. His hubby is not a woman to be messed with lightly, and I don’t want to get in trouble.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Mr. Warren, let us find an excuse to leave my house after lunch tomorrow. I really don’t know how I am going to face my parents.”
