Virginity in second marriages

Chapter 221: We are the same kind of people

"Why is Mr. Cristian's wife in the kitchen washing dishes?"

"It seems like Mr. Alessandro asked her to."

"How can that be? Her friend is still here. It seems that Mr. Alessandro is very kind to that girl. He

smiles at her all the time. I've never seen Mr. Alessandro treat someone so well before."

"Do you think Mr. Alessandro doesn't like Mr. Cristian's wife, so he wants to find him another one?

So...!

These comments entered Serena's ears. The movement of her hands stopped. A plate slipped and fell

to the floor, making a deafening noise.

Several maids looked at each other and whispered.

"Stop talking, or she will be angry. Have you forgotten the last time?"

"Let's go away."

A group of people ran out of the kitchen.

So Serena was the only one left in the kitchen. She stood in front of the sink and looked at the

mountains of dishes. Suddenly she felt very sick.

Alessandro... Was it true that he wanted to arrange a marriage between Alice and Leonardo? Could he

really think of combining Alice with Cristian?

Besides, whether it was Cristian or Leonardo, all depended on whether Alice was willing or not.

What was she thinking?

Serena bent down to pick up the shards on the ground.

A very tall person came up to her and took her hands before she touched the shards. He had a calm

voice.

"Don't touch them."

That familiar voice made Serena raise her head in amazement, and then she came across a tender

look.

"Leonardo?"

Why was Leonardo here?

"Don't touch them with your bare hands. The shards are sharp and you will hurt yourself."

As he spoke, Leonardo took her in his arms and helped her up.

Serena was stunned for a few seconds, and retracted her hand. Leonardo turned around, grabbed a

broom, swept up all the shards, and then threw them away.

In any case, his actions were kind. Serena could not get angry with him. She could only nod, "Thank

you, Leonardo."

She turned on the faucet and washed the remaining dishes.

"Don't do that." Leonardo walked over, turned off the faucet, frowned, and said, "Leave these things for

the maids. Go upstairs."

"But..." Alessandro asked her to do so. If she didn't, she would be...

"My grandfather just said it. He won't come to check if you wash or not. You don't need to stay here. Go

upstairs."

After thinking about it, Serena shook her head, "Never mind. It's not a problem for me to do this."

Serena opened the faucet again. Her movements were very skillful. She had done these things before,

but since marrying Cristian she had rarely done them. Doing them again today was not a strange thing

for her.

Seeing that she was very familiar to that kind of work. Leonardo felt distressed.

"Aren't you offended?"

Serena was stunned. After a while, she said with a slight smile, "What? I used to do these things in the

past. Leave it to me. You can get out."

But after saying that, Leonardo stood still and had no intention of leaving.

A moment later, Leonardo stood beside her, "Well, since you want to do it, I will help you."

Leonardo extended his hand to help. Serena stood stunned, staring at him, "Leonardo, you..."

She remained silent, staring at the sink.

"Serena, I know it is impossible for you to accept me, but I am willing to wait. No matter what you think

now, I just hope you remember that no matter what, toward you, I have no other thoughts except that I RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

like you with all my heart. As long as you want, I'll be here to protect you. Even if the whole world hates

me, you can hide behind me."

"Leonardo!" Serena interrupted him and said in a serious tone, "Don't ever say those words again in

the future. I never want to hear them again."

"Serena..." Leonardo looked at her sorrowfully, "Do you hate me now?"

"No... I don't hate you, but... You will always be my brother-in-law, even if... In the future I should

separate from Cristian. Anyway there will be nothing between us."

Having said that, Serena thought that no matter how deep his affection was, he should understand her

at this point, right?

She wanted to continue standing there washing, but Leonardo stood there the whole time. Serena

could no longer resist. She only managed to say, "Since you want to wash, I'm leaving."

Serena turned and walked out. Leonardo felt an explosion of tension in his heart. He stepped forward

to stop her.

"Serena, can't you give me another chance?"

"Leonardo, it's really impossible." Serena shook her head and walked away. Leonardo took her wrist,

"Even if Cristian doesn't love you, do you still want to devalue yourself like this?"

Serena paused. A moment later, she pushed his hands away gently, and her voice was like the wind,

"What about you? What are you doing now? Putting yourself on my level? You are worse than me."

Listening to that speech, a sense of self-mockery came into Leonardo's gaze. He smiled bitterly, "Isn't

that better? It shows that we are the same kind of people. As long as you fulfill my wish, there is no

need for all three of us to suffer."

"I'm leaving!" Serena did not want to talk to him anymore. She walked out of the kitchen.

She went to the bathroom next to her and washed her hands. Then she went upstairs. Serena went

directly to the bedroom. When she reached the door, she was about to open it, but noticed that the

door was open.

As she thought about it, she heard a delicate female voice from inside.

"Cristian, let me go."

Was that...

Alice's voice?

Serena went blank. Through the crack of the door, she saw Cristian holding Alice by the wrist and

looking solemnly at her.

Alice wanted to retract her hand, but she did not have enough strength.

Serena was almost in, but... At that moment her feet could not move.

What was wrong with her? She had no idea. Before she could hear what they were talking about,

Serena turned and left. She rushed down the stairs and stood in a corner of the garden to calm herself.

What was she doing? Although she had seen such a scene, she did not step forward to stop them, but

turned and walked away?

What was wrong with her?

Serena felt that her brain was in a state of confusion.

On the other side of the house, Alice's eyes were red: "Cristian, I just can't tell you, please let me go."

Cristian's eyes were injected with venom: "You'd better be clear with me, or else..."
