Chapter 63: Still friends?
Alice had a tendency to push the door open.
Serena was shocked and ran quickly to stop her.
Alice tightened her lips sadly, “Let me just have a look.”
Without giving her any chance, Serena led her back to her seat, “Alice, don’t disturb him, or he will scold you.”
“Whatever, since you tell me, then let’s wait until after he finishes work. By the way, does Mr. Cristian scold you often?”
Serena thought about it for a while and tilted her head slightly, saying, “There are no outbursts, but getting married to me is a problem for him, and he also has problems with his legs, so I can understand him…”
“Really?” Alice asked, “Actually, I think letting you stay in the Ferrari family already means that he is generous, and he doesn’t seem to be powerless. This Mr. Cristian… he seems to be different from what others say.”
After Cristian finally left work, Serena took Alice to his office.
“Just take a look. Don’t stay long and don’t touch things randomly, or you’ll get caught.”
Alice was quite regular. After observing the office for a few moments, she left with Serena. On her way back, she suddenly thought, “Serena, will you invite me to your house tonight?”
Serena clenched her hands in fright and looked at Alice with a strange expression, “Alice?”
Alice smiled uncomfortably, “I meant. I’m going to your house as a guest. You’ve been married for so long, and no one has come to visit you right? I think I should go there and let everyone know that you have supports too, so they will not dare to mistreat you.”
Her words were reasonable and convincing, and without much thought, Serena lowered her eyes.
Alice looked unhappy when she saw that Serena was no longer speaking. She felt slightly agitated, and her hands on the steering wheel trembled, and then said, “If it’s inconvenient for you, then I’m not going?”
“It’s not inconvenient. I’m just thinking that… it’s true that I’ve been married for so long, and no one has ever come to see me.”
Alice thought of her parents and comforted her, “I’m here, aren’t I? Serena, you can treat me as your family.”
Serena smiled, and suddenly hugged the woman’s neck, “Alice, thank you.”
Eventually Serena took her home, but she was not afraid after all, so she decided to go ask Alessandro’s permission, but she met Leonardo on the street.
Leonardo understood her intention to go to Alessandro and gently explained, “Grandpa is still angry about what happened earlier, so I don’t suggest you go to him. Can you tell me?”
Serena pondered for a while and told him about the fact that she wanted to invite Alice as a house guest. After that, she lowered her head and said shyly, “I don’t know if it’s possiblee… so I wanted to ask Alessandro.”
“It’s okay. Serena, you are also a member of the Ferrari family. You can make these decisions yourself. If you want to bring friends, you can bring them.” Leonardo was still so modest and polite, and Serena almost doubted that she would have misunderstood him previously.
She didn’t even notice that Leonardo called her Serena and even forgot that she should be Aurora in this house.
“Thank you, Leonardo. I’ll let my friend in then.”
“Yes, go,” Leonardo smiled, and suddenly stroked her head, “I heard you were in the hospital yesterday. Are you okay now?”
The stroking motion was too cuddly. Serena unconsciously took a step back and shook her head, “Thank you, I’m fine. I’ll go get my friend.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Leonardo followed her.
Alice’s eyes lit up when she saw Leonardo. While she was still wondering who this man was, he joined her by introducing himself, “Hi, I’m Leonardo, Cristian’s older brother. Leonardo Ferrari.”
“Hi, my name is Alice Giordano.” Alice quickly responded by shaking Leonardo’s hand without hesitation.
“Welcome.”
“Thank you.”
“Have fun. I have to go.”
Serena led Alice upstairs.
As the two entered the elevator, Alice was still wondering, “Is he Cristian’s older brother? He is cute and seems to have a very good personality. He should be very good to you, right?”
Serena recalled the memories and then nodded, “Yes, Cristian’s older brother is really a nice person.”
“Although he is handsome, but I think… Cristian is even more attractive! His deep eyes and masculine temperament…”
Serena gave her a strange look, and Alice coughed softly, “I’m complimenting your husband!”
As they approached the bedroom, Serena suddenly felt embarrassed. She bit her lower lip and stood still. Why did she forget that she was now sleeping in the same room with Cristian? Will he… agree that she brought Alice in?
“What’s wrong?”
“Assistant Serena, are you back?” As she was thinking, Luca pushed Cristian this way. As soon as she saw Cristian, Serena’s gaze changed and she took a small step back without realizing it.
This subtle movement fell into Cristian’s eyes where a slight sarcasm appeared.
This woman seemed to be really afraid of him. Her fear came from the bottom of her heart, because a person’s natural reaction movements did not fool people.
“Yes, I am back. Mr. Cristian… this is… my friend Alice. ” Serena thought about it, and then stepped forward and to introduce Alice to Cristian.
As soon as she saw Cristian, Alice’s beautiful eyes seemed to see the light. Her eyes glued firmly to the man’s face without being able to move away. Then she raised her lips, preparing her characteristic smile.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Mr. Cristian, I’m Alice Giordano. We have already met in the hospital.” She blinked, and her heart was pounding wildly.
Cristian inadvertently looked up and shifted his gaze to her.
Alice’s heart felt immediately captured!
This look! This face! He was a perfect man!
Alice could not remain calm as she looked at the man!
However, Cristian’s gaze remained on her face for only a second, and then fell on Serena who was beside her.
Serena’s back was almost frozen by this cold look. Her pink lips opened slightly, and she explained in a low voice, “If… we bother you, I’ll take her out.”
“Welcome.”
However, at this moment, Cristian suddenly looked at Alice and welcomed her.
The voice was not soft, but it was enough to make Alice’s heart beat frantically.
Luca looked at the scene ahead, feeling that something was not right.
