Her Second Marriage With Mr. Cristian

Immediately, she jumped to her feet in fright.

Bar da-

Matthew felt that something was wrong and quickly flipped the room switch.

The room was soon filled with light and their eyes met in the air. Anna’s panicked heart trembled for a moment at the sight of Matthew and then gradually calmed down.

Matteo saw Anna’s wet hair and pale expression and took a big step toward her.

“What’s wrong?”

Matteo sat on the edge of the bed and when his hand touched Anna’s, his whole body trembled with fear and then unconsciously avoided her touch.

Then, realizing that she had been too obvious, Anna forced a smile that was worse than crying at Matteo.

“Are you off work? Me, I didn’t cook tonight, you, why don’t you order takeaway and just eat.”

“Let’s not talk about that.” Matteo took her hand and when he touched it, he noticed that her clothes were a little sticky, Matteo then checked her back and noticed that her clothes were damp with sweat, then he frowned, “What’s the matter? Are you uncomfortable?”

“No, no.” Anna, who was still not breathing so regularly, shook her head and replied, “I, I just had a nightmare, and then when I woke up, there was, a little bit of fear, just when you opened the door and came in with the door open, and I got even more scared.”

Her explanation would have made sense, but the frightened look in her eyes told Matthew that it was not that simple.

But the way she was frightened at that moment, if he asked her again, it might cause her to keep second-guessing herself and thus deepen her fear.

Matteo asked no more questions, but turned and opened the closet to get Anna a set of clean clothes, “Don’t think too much, it’s just a dream, now it’s cold, you’ll catch a cold if you put on wet clothes, change first and we’ll talk about it.”

“Okay.”

Anna’s hands were still shaking as she went to get her clothes, Matteo half-open his thin lips and said nothing.

As Anna changed, Matteo turned and reached for the remote control to raise the temperature a little more, then stood for a moment and heard the little girl behind him whisper, “It’s done.”

Matthew turned around.

As he changed, Anna turned a little better and looked at him with less fear than before in her eyes, and Matteo walked over to her and took her in his arms.

“Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?”

He had just returned from outside, but his body was warm and the familiar smell made Anna feel very safe. She leaned against him and her hand unconsciously grasped the hem of Matthew’s shirt as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

“A little hungry, but I’m so tired.”

“Just take care of the food, I didn’t ask you to do that.”

“Hmm.” Anna thought for a moment with her eyes closed and shook her head, “I don’t know what to eat, I’m so tired.”

“Then sit for a while, I’ll order a meal and have it brought to me later.”

“Okay.”

Then she lay down in Matteo’s arms and rested her eyes. With Matteo around, all those horrible images were shredded as if paper had been thrown into a paper shredder.

She felt more and more dependent on Matteo, more and more enveloped by him.

As she thought about it, Anna stretched her arms around his lean waist.

Matteo’s gaze moved down but his face did not move, he could feel the girl’s discomfort and fear, but he could not ask what it was now, he could only press his big hand on her shoulder and give her a reassuring pat, one by one.

When he finished ordering, the girl still lay motionless.

They did not know how long they remained in the same position, except that when the phone rang, Anna clearly heard that food was coming.

“Well, just a moment to fix it.”

Matthew hung up the phone and looked at the child in his arms, gently stroking the back of her head, “Get up?”

Anna shook her head, “Don’t go, I’m afraid to be alone.”

It could be the events of the day, or maybe it was that nightmare that made her feel the fear of being alone now.

“What are you afraid of? In your house, could a burglar come in?”

“I don’t want to be alone.” Anna didn’t want to leave his life, even though she knew she was bad, but she was really scared today, and God knows what kind of sanity she had to maintain to talk to Sabrina in the bathroom.

The more she thought about it later, the more scared she became.

“So, is it still time to eat?” Matteo’s voice was soft, and no dislike or impatience could be heard.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Anna listened and immediately shook her head, “I don’t want to be alone anyway, and you can’t go.”

The other man was silent for a moment, his chest found a helpless sigh, and the hand clasped at the nape of her neck rested on his waist, “Then squeeze harder.”

Anna: “?”

Despite the doubt in her mind, she agreed and hugged him tighter, he was the only one who could give her a sense of security now, and she was naturally very obedient when asked to hug him tighter.

“Hold on tight, don’t fall.”

After saying this, without waiting for Anna to react, Matteo’s hands moved to clasp her hips and with a push she stood up, while Anna held on to her waist and clung to him.

As Matthew stood up, she also unconsciously wrapped her legs around his waist.

Immediately, the action seemed to become a little more subtle.

Anna had only wanted to feel safe and not be left alone, but now that she was moving like this, it seemed strange in every way.

Her face blushed and she was about to say something when Matthew coughed softly, “Go get your dinner, and hold it a little longer or it will hurt if you fall down later.”

Anna grunted inwardly and hugged him tightly around his thin waist, strangling him as if trying to block the air, “I won’t fall.”

Matthew looked at the betrayed man and with an affectionate smile lowered his head and kissed the top of his hair before leaving.

It was fine at first, but walking around in this position made Anna feel very awkward, especially when she went down the stairs, and she felt even more strange.

However, looking at Matthew’s expressionless face, she seemed to be the only one who felt strange and embarrassed, so she had to keep her head down and pretend nothing was wrong.

Ding…

The bellboy seemed to be getting tired of waiting and began to ring the bell experimentally.

When Matteo opened the door, the bellhop immediately gave a smile.

“Hello sir Giordano, this is the dinner you ordered.”

When he finished, the bellhop’s smile froze on his face when he saw Matteo, who had opened the door, with another person in his arms and with a somewhat strange posture.

Only when Matteo’s sharp eyes fell on his face did he realize he had gone too far and kept his smile, “Shall I let Mr. Giordano in?”

“Yes.”

Matteo nodded coldly as the bellhop brought in the items.

During this, Anna blushed and whispered into Matteo’s arms, “Why don’t I come down?”
