Chapter 185: I must stay!
Everyone’s faces paled, and Luca angrily scolded her.
“You have a lot of nerve, using drugs inside the company!”
Elena was about to shout, “I’m sorry. It’s not my fault. Director Esposito asked me to do it. He is my superior. I didn’t dare disobey him!”
Luca was extremely angry, “You still won’t hurry up. What you are waiting for?”Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Elena led the way as she cried, then stopped and looked in front of a place expressionlessly.
Luca pushed Cristian’s chair around the corner, and seeing the scene in front of them, suddenly stopped.
Only Anna spoke.
“Serena, vice president Ferrari. What are you doing here?”
Leonardo was hugging Serena. Serena, with her head tilted, had her eyes closed. There was a palm print on her cheek, and bruises on her tender neck.
The door to the room was open. Tommaso had been beaten badly and was lying beside the door. He had wounds in many places on his face. And Gaia was next to him extremely frightened.
When she saw Elena, she immediately wanted to go toward her, but when she saw that Cristian was there with Elena, she stopped.
Serena was still wearing the red dress, but the bottom part was broken. It had been forcibly torn. She was wrapped in a man’s suit.
Leonardo was holding her in his arms. The drug Serena had taken was very strong. Leonardo was holding her while she was unconscious.
That scene transfixed Cristian.
The people there would never expect such a scene. Anna stood still for a while before reacting.
She had not found Leonardo, so she looked for Cristian.
But now, before they could arrive, Leonardo had already rescued Serena, which was to say, Leonardo had arrived early?
“Brother, you were very quick.”
After a while, Cristian sneered.
Leonardo arched his eyebrows. Even though Cristian was standing there, he did not let Serena go from him. On the contrary, he continued to hug her for a few minutes. He said in a cold voice, “I know you don’t like her, but since she is your wife, you should protect her as her husband, right?”
Cristian lifted his lips, and his eyes were sharp.
“Big brother, aren’t you protecting her a little too well?”
“She’s your wife!”
Seeing the indifferent emotion in Cristian’s eyes, Leonardo suddenly felt offended for Serena and shouted furiously!
Cristian’s gaze was so deep.
“So what? A woman who can only sleep with other men is worthless to me.”
“You!”
Leonardo, who was always kind, lost control in front of other people. If it were not for the fact that he was holding Serena in his arms, Leonardo would have run forward to grab him by the collar and punch him.
Suddenly, Serena moved in his arms. She was unconscious. She said something in a low voice. Leonardo wanted to hear her, and he heard her say Cristian’s name.
His pupils shrank and he suddenly looked at Cristian.
She called Cristian in a very low voice, with a sense of pain and help, but her eyes did not open. It was obviously a subconscious movement.
“Did you hear that?” Leonardo’s eyes hit him like a fist: “She called your name.”
That sound gripped Cristian’s heart like a hand, and he squinted.
“And you?”
His thin lips moved, “Give her to me.”
“Cristian, it’s not that I want to preach.” said Leonardo in a strong voice, holding Serena in his arms for a few minutes, “If you can’t protect her, then you can divorce with her.”
He turned around holding Serena in his arms.
“Vice president Ferrari!” Luca called him back, “What are you talking about? She is Cristian’s wife. Please put her down!”
“Sorry, I have to take her for treatment. If you want to save her, you can follow us.”
Luca: “You…”
Leonardo walked away.
Luca looked anxiously at Cristian: “Mr. Cristian!”
Cristian’s face was cold and calm.
“Mr. Cristian!”
Leonardo walked forward with Serena in his arms. After two steps, he suddenly stopped because Serena who was unconscious suddenly grabbed his clothes, “Put me down.”
“Serena?” Leonardo frowned and stared at her unhappily.
“Put me down.” Serena begged him again in a low voice, then finally opened her eyes and looked at Leonardo.
Her cold eyes were as red as blood. Because of the drug, her skin was pink and looked delicate. A moment before, she was unconscious. Now that she had woken up. Wouldn’t the drugs take effect again?
“Don’t make a fuss.” He whispered to her, “You’ve been drugged. I’ll take you to the hospital now.”
Serena shook her head, “I don’t want to go to the hospital.”
Her voice was firm.
“… Do you really want to stay here? Also… He doesn’t care about you. Do you want to stay here?” After Leonardo asked this question, he felt a hatred from the bottom of his heart. Hatred that he made his grandfather support this marriage in the first place.
He got her into the trouble and she lived in an unhappy life.
“Yes.”
Serena tightened his clothes, “Put me down, or… There could be misunderstandings.”
“I don’t want to…” Serena’s forehead began to sweat and she said with difficulty, “Let him misunderstand me.”
Leonardo’s legs cannot move as if they were made of lead, and his hands were like a chain and would not let her go.
“Leonardo.” Serena called him, and her eyes were filled with tears.
Leonardo’s cold heart softened. Helplessly he put her down, and then helped her stand still.
“Do you really want to stay here? You know, you’ve been drugged, if you don’t go to the hospital…”
Serena nodded, “I know.”
If she left with Leonardo, there would be a big misunderstanding.
So she wanted to stay.
“Cristian!” Leonardo had no other choice. She insisted on staying. He could only leave her to Cristian. He said in a cold voice, “See, the woman you misunderstood does not want to leave with me at all. She has just been drugged. If you are a man, take her to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment.”
Cristian’s eyes were cold as they fell on Serena. Serena’s body was burning, so she did not feel the coldness of his eyes.
Suddenly, Cristian sneered and said, “Since when do you have to go to the hospital for being drugged?”
“You like helping her so much, why don’t you help her all the way?”
“Cristian!”
Leonardo was provoked. He wanted to step forward, but was dragged by Serena.
Serena grabbed his clothes and walked forward step by step until she came in front of Cristian.
“We did not have sex.”
