Chapter 252 I Mean If
She waited a while, but Christopher didn’t answer.
She looked up at him and stared into his eyes. She sensed him struggling to make a decision, but it dissipated soon after. It was as if he couldn’t escape from his fatality.
Yuliana felt a sharp pain in her heart. She forced her tears back and asked with a smile, “If one day,
I
Annabelle, our son, and I are in danger at the same time, and you can only save one side, who will you save?” The question was childish and ridiculous.
However, Yuliana just wanted to hear Christopher’s answer.
Christopher frowned and blurted, “Ana, I won’t let this happen again. You and our son will be fine.”
“I mean if!”
Yuliana looked at him and waited for his answer.
She already knew the answer in her heart, but she didn’t dare to face it. That was why she wanted Christopher to tell her on his own.
Christopher was silent for a long time and didn’t answer Yuliana’s question again.
Yuliana laughed at herself. The moment she turned around, she bit her lip and tears rolled down her eyes.
She wanted to pretend that nothing had happened and continue to live in peace. But when Christopher kissed her, she couldn’t help but think of the scene of Christopher leaving last night.
It made her body elicit a sense of repulsion.
So she couldn’t help but point out the problem between them.
She really didn’t know how things turned out that way.
Perhaps the more she cared about something, the more she couldn’t bear any flaws in it.
Yuliana left the bathroom and went to the nursery for a while.
In the next few days, Christopher was busy again. He went out early and returned late. When he went out in the morning. Yuliana was still asleep. When he came back, Yuliana had already fallen asleep.
She no longer waited for him to come back as she did previously.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Leonard’s grandfather’s birthday banquet.
Yuliana wore an improved nude gown to the banquet. It was simple and elegant, showing off her figure perfectly. Meanwhile, Christopher wore a black suit, which was perfectly tailored.
It was the first time they showed up at such a grand banquet after publicizing their relationship.
As soon as they appeared, they attracted the attention of numerous people.
Before the dinner began, Christopher brought Yuliana with him to send their felicitation to Lucas.
Lucas was sitting on the seat, and someone was talking to him. Lucas’ temperament was good. He always talked to others with a smile on his face.
Christopher and Yuliana stood beside them for a while. Soon, Milton and Rosalyn came over to greet them.
Christopher said, “Ana, this is Mr. Fuller and Mrs. Jenkins.”
Yuliana followed Christopher’s ways of addressing them.
There were too many guests at Zachary’s birthday banquet last time. Christopher only brought Yuliana to meet the relatives from his paternal side and the ones from Winnie’s side.
But before going to the banquet, Christopher had talked to Yuliana about the Fuller family.
Rosalyn smiled and said, “You’re fast. Not only did you get married, but now you even have a son. The one in my family is still single!”
Christopher said, “Mrs. Jenkins, this is your fault. You control Leonard too much. Otherwise, he would have brought you a daughter-in-law.”
After Lucas finished talking to the guests, he greeted Christopher and Yuliana.
Lucas glared at him and pretended to be angry. “What are you busy with these days? I haven’t seen you for a long time!”
“I’m here now!” Christopher pushed Yuliana forward and said, “And I brought someone to see you. This is my wife. Beautiful, isn’t she?”
Yuliana blushed and greeted him as Grandpa Lucas.
Lucas sized her up for a while and said, “Good taste. The girl is very pretty. You have to treat her well. Don’t do anything despicable.”
Rosalyn answered, “He won’t. Chris is now a father. He’s much more sensible than the one in our family. Lately, Chris has been busy with work. He no longer fools around.”
What she said was true.
In the past, Christopher, Raymond, and Leonard were very close. They always hung out with a group of people. They were either in bars or at poker tables in various clubs. When Christopher got together with Yuliana, he seemed to turn over a new leaf. Even if he had nothing to do, he would stay at home instead of going out to have fun with them.
Hearing Rosalyn’s words, Lucas became even angrier. “So, why don’t you hurry up and find someone for Leonard? I’m still waiting for my great-grandson. I don’t even know if I’ll be alive to see him if things get delayed for another one or two years.”
“Grandpa, why are you talking nonsense on your birthday?”
Leonard and Raymond came over, along with Xandria.
Seeing Raymond and Xandria, Rosalyn couldn’t help but sigh again. Out of the three, only her son, Leonard, was still single.
She felt a little uncomfortable at that instant.
Raymond smiled and said, “Grandpa Lucas, you’re full of vigor. Not to mention a year or two, it won’t be a problem for you, even if it’s ten or twenty years.”
They accompanied Lucas for a while. When other elders came to talk to Lucas, they went to the other side.
Yuliana stood for a while and was a little tired. She took Xandria to a place to sit down and rest.
Xandria took two glasses of juice and handed one to Yuliana. She asked, “Has my godson recovered from his cold?”
She planned to visit Rowan before, but Yuliana said he caught a cold. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Considering how weak the immune system of a newborn was, Xandria didn’t visit Rowan. She was afraid of infecting him with the germs she brought from outside.
Yuliana took the juice, but she didn’t drink it. “He’s fine now.”
“Then I’ll go see him some other day. As his godmother, I haven’t even seen him before.”
Xandria pursed her lips. Biting her straw, she looked around the banquet hall. Suddenly, her eyes paused, and she frowned. “Why is he here? What bad luck!”
