Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 40

Instead of raising his glass, Christian picked up his chopsticks with his eyebrows frowned, then asked, "You still need to work in the afternoon. You can drink off work If you want."

Other than Isabella, the rest were all stunned and looked at Christian’s the glass with the same expression. They swallowed and then quickly put the glasses, nodding, "Mr. Miller is right. Let's eat more instead of drinking.

No drinking anymore. Isabella immediately became more relaxed. She placed the glass far away and started to eat.

Adrian's eyes focused on the two people for a while, then he smiled even.

Isabella's phone suddenly rang after eating for a while,

"Excuse me."

She saw it was Luke. He probably was calling to ask about Rachel, so she smiled to everyone and answered it without going outside.

"Hi, Luke."

Christian couldn't help but glance at her, when he heard her soft tone.

"Isabella, didi you eat?"

"Yeah, we are eating." She lowered her head and helped Rachel wipe her mouth naturally.

"How is Rachel? Did she bother you? "

"No, she is good and she's eating right now. Do you want to talk to her?" Isabella smiled lightly.

“It’s okay, I'm already on my way. I'll go to your company directly later." As he spoke, his tone turned gentle. "Thank you for looking after her this morning."

"Looking after her is much easier than work." She pursed her lips and quickly said, "Luke, we'll eat first. And we'll talk when you get here."

"Okay."

She spoke very lightly. People ate and chatted when she was on the phone. It seemed that nobody wasn't affected. However, the moment she put down her phone and raised her head, she bumped into a pair of black, bottomless eyes, which made her heart skipped a beat.

"Miss Isabella and the child's father love each other very much?"

Adrian asked.

The child's father obviously didn't mean her husband. Others might not be able to recognize him, but she understood.

He seemed to even know about her divorce with Christian.

She was a little suspicious. When did Christian become so long-winded, even he would talk to his friend?

"If I didn't love him, why would I choose to be together with him? " She lowered her head and gave a light smile.

Of course Adrian could understand her deep meaning. Raising his eyebrows and looking at Christian, Adrian curved his lips and said in a lazy smile, "That's uncertain. If the person doesn't love you at first, but falls in love after days and nights? Isn't there another one called... Love will come time. Most of these things are variable."

"…"

Isabella didn't expect him to be so straightforward, even speaking of "love will come in time".

Could it be that Christian would fall in love with her overtime? How ridiculous.

He went back home once a week in the past three years. He knew nothing about her, how could he be in love with her?

"Adrian, are you married?" She raised her head to looked at him and suddenly asked.

Adrian was stunned, "Err, nope."

Isabella looked at him unsurprisingly and smiled slightly, "So … please do not think of marriage as your opinion of love."

Adrian, "..."

Christian heard their conversation word for word, his handsome face became a a little ghastly.

Isabella sneered with her pretty face darkened," Been suppressing yourself, right? Why don’t you go to be an actor?You must be the best.”

She could tell that this man was a dissolute playboy, either a rich second-generation or a hoodlum.

"You think that I'm playing you? In stead, I feel that you're feeling guilty." Christian looked at her indifferently, and smiled meaningfully, "Probably only those with a guilty conscience would think so much."

"…"

Isabella choked and opened her mouth, but didn’t argue with him anymore. Otherwise, he would definitely talk about the baby in her belly again.

He was right. The reason why she was so angry just because she was guilty.

Indeed, she was not good at lying.

The man turned around and walked towards the car without any change on her face, after feeling her suddenly disappearing aura.

Adrian curled his lips playfully, reminding her, "Miss Isabella, let's go."

Isabella bit her lips, stared at them, and after a moment, she picked up Rachel and walked over to the car.

In the company, Isabella did not hid her anger any more and showed it all on her face.

Anyway, the people here didn't know her, and the people in her company weren't here.

Right now, she was pissed off by Christian.

"Christian, you're back?"

When Lexie saw Christian, her face lit up with happiness. However when she saw Isabella beside him, and her smile stiffened immediately.

Adrian's eyes moved and his lips were hooked. "Am I invisible?
