Chapter 9 A Man With Few Words
Chapter 9 A Man With Few Words
Resting her chin on her hand, Christine thought for a while. Her father, Stella and Amanda had tried their best to drive her out of the Luo family, and her best friend had even hooked up with her boyfriend. These were all humiliating things to her.
If she really married the man in front of her, she could not only refuse her father's coercion, but also perfectly counterattack the betrayal of Emily and Albert. It sounded a good idea.
"Okay, I promise you!" After thinking for a while, Christine casually decided on the rest of her life.
It seemed that Darren had expected it. He just nodded indifferently at the decision of Christine.
"My name is Christine. What about you? What's your name?" It was not until now that Christine remembered what had happened. She had been with him for the whole afternoon, but she still didn't know his name! Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Darren." As soon as the name "Darren" came out, the whole financial circle in the world would shake three times.
Anyone who had read some news before must have heard of the name of Darren, especially the children of the upper class.
However, Christine was an exception. Although she was also a member of the upper class, since her mother died, her life was no different from that of a servant's daughter.
"Well, your name sounds good." Except for going to school, Christine had been imprisoned in the Luo family. She didn't know much about the outside world, and it was normal that she hadn't heard of the name of Darren.
As for Uncle Brian Xi, whom her father had mentioned to her this morning, she had only heard of him.
She only heard that he had a very powerful son, but she didn't know his real name.
Darren had asked someone to investigate what had happened to Christine. He knew that she hadn't lived a good life in the Luo family, but he had never thought that she would be closed to such an extent.
He had always been a man of few words. Now that he had achieved his goal, he stopped talking.
But Christine was different. She was lively and talked endlessly.
After a moment of silence, Christine found a topic first. "Why did you marry me, Darren?"
Hearing that, Darren raised his head and glanced at Christine. Then he lowered his head again. He checked the stock market situation on his mobile phone, but didn't answer.
Well, only then did Christine find a big problem. The man in front of her didn't seem to like talking much!
After recalling the whole process of the two people's meeting, Christine finally came to a conclusion that Darren was indeed a man of few words.
Well, in that case, Christine wouldn't mind whether Darren would talk to her or not.
"Are you always so quiet, Darren? Did you do the same when you were with your family?"
In Christine's opinion, since the two of them had decided to enter the marriage hall, they should communicate more and cultivate more feelings.
Therefore, she had regarded Darren as a family.
"Yes." Darren neither nodded nor shook his head.
If it were another shy woman, she would have kept silent.
But Christine was different. Although Darren only responded to her vaguely, she wasn't angry at all.
"Darren, we are going to get our marriage certificate tomorrow. Don't you need to tell your parents? We can't act first and report afterwards, right?"
If that was the case, it would be terrible enough.
Judging from Darren's temperament, she knew that his family must be one of the best in the upper class. If they got the marriage certificate without telling anyone, they would probably be scolded miserably!
Having lived in the circle of the rich for a long time, although Christine had been confined in her own small room, she was used to the intrigues in the rich.
For example, the Luo family!
"No." Darren frowned slightly. Christine didn't know whether he was impatient with her or he was disgusted with this topic.
"Are you unhappy?" Noticing the change in Darren, a subtle change suddenly occurred in Christine's heart, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
She didn't know where this feeling came from, but she just felt uncomfortable.
"No. What do you want to say?" Darren's sharp eyes swept across the little face of Christine and into her eyes, like a huge whirlpool.
All of a sudden, Christine's face turned red. Was this the so-called opposite sex attraction?
"I... I just want to talk to you." Lowering her head, Christine hid her red face. What she was thinking was totally different from what she said.
Hearing what Christine said, a tinge of ripples appeared in Darren's eyes. It was the third woman in his life who was willing to talk to him voluntarily.
Because of Darren's high social status, there were always many people around him who flattered him, especially women.
However, there were only three people who really wanted to talk to him like Christine.
In addition to Christine, one of them must be the biological mother of Darren, and the other...
Darren's eyes darkened, and his face, which looked unhappy, became even gloomier.
Feeling the sudden drop of temperature, Christine raised her head and saw the expression on Darren's face, which was more terrifying than that of a devil.
"If you don't like others to talk to you, I won't say it again." Christine thought that Darren was angry because she talked too much.
"It's okay. You can say whatever you want to say." Although Darren's expression was gloomy, the meaning in his words was obvious. He meant that he liked to listen to her.
"Okay!" Christine didn't know why Darren was in a bad mood.
In fact, these were not supposed to be taken into account by Christine. She agreed to his request only in order to cope with her father's coercion and the betrayal of Albert. It had nothing to do with her whether Darren was happy or not.
"Your phone is ringing." Perhaps Darren still had something to deal with, so he kindly reminded Christine and went to another study.
"What? Oh!" After being slow to react for a few seconds, Christine ran into the bedroom.
She picked up the phone, hesitating for a few seconds, and pressed the answer key. "Dad, what's up?"
"Why can't I call you when I'm free? Where are you now? Come back immediately!" The man named Nicholas on the other end of the phone was like a roaring lion, shouting at Christine, which confused her.
