Three Husbands, One Love - Chapter (24)
Ch. Three Husbands, One love it wasn’t me 24 Three Husbands, One love it wasn’t me 24
Chapter 1
I had been with my brother’s friend for seven years. I was planning to marry him.
I followed the location and found his gathering, but I heard their laughter at the door of the private room.
“Christian, your Cinderella has returned. How did you plan to deal with the substitute girl?”
He didn’t speak.
When the atmosphere became somewhat tense, another man laughed and said, “Speaking of which, Christian is still quite bold. He even dared to make a move on Garrett’s sister. Now that he has taken advantage of her, Vanessa has returned…”
“Vanessa was so heartless when she left, she deserves to find a substitute to make her angry!”

The next day, Christian Raymond took me to Vanessa Baker’s welcome banquet, showering me with affectionate gestures.
When Vanessa ran out crying, he pushed me aside and hurriedly followed her.
The waiter’s tray was spilled on me, and I went home with soup stains all over my body and burns. I opened the door to the study,
which he never allowed me to enter.
On the desk, the photo of him and Vanessa was so prominent.
My heart was as cold as ashes, so I made a phone call to my brother overseas.
“I have thought about the marriage proposal, and I agree!”
“Renee, have you been wronged?” My brother hesitated for a moment on the other end of the phone, then his voice filled with deep
concern.
A sourness surged up my nostrils, and I forced a light smile, “No, I just figured it out. Eventually, everyone has to get married, so it
doesn’t matter who I marry.”
“Moreover, I trust the judgment of you and parents. Even in an arranged marriage, the candidate must have been carefully selected by
you.”
My brother finally breathed a sigh of relief, sounding much more relaxed. “It’s good that you can understand. So, when will you come back? Do you want to meet him first before making a decision?”
“No, if I agree earlier, our company’s crisis can be resolved earlier. You can start arranging the wedding, and the time… let’s set it for a
month later!”
“Okay! By the way, do you have any contact with Christian? I heard that his goddess had finally returned. Is he also about to have some good news?”
So, my brother also knew Vanessa, no wonder Christian never let me tell my brother about our relationship.
I lowered my eyelids, covering the bitterness that filled my heart.
“I didn’t know… I’m not familiar with him…” Hearing the sound of the door lock, I greeted briefly and hung up the phone.
As I looked up, I met Christian’s beaming eyes.
“Who are you not familiar with?”
“You!”
I truthfully confessed, but Christian raised an eyebrow and pulled me into his arms with a mischievous smile.
“Alright, then tell me exactly how we’re not close. Is it because we haven’t been affectionate enough, or because we haven’t slept together? Hmm?”

His scorching breath sprayed in my ear.
Actions that used to be so intimate that made my face blush and my heart race, now only make me feel uncomfortable and resistant.
Struggling, the lipstick stains on his shirt collar became visible.
I didn’t know where I got burned on my body, but it hurt so much that tears welled up in my eyes.
“What’s wrong? Renee, is there something wrong with you?
My tears made Christian panic. He rolled up his sleeves and saw a large area of red on my wrist, causing his voice to tremble with
heartache.
“What happened? When did you get burned, why didn’t you tell me?”
He seemed to have completely forgotten about what happened at the banquet.
I remained silent, unsure whether I should remind him and shatter his facade of deep affection.
“Okay, stop crying. I will give you some medicine.”
He comfortingly rubbed my head, stood up, and went to get the medicine box, muttering to himself as he walked.
“You’re an adult, yet you’re still so scared of pain and cry so easily. How would you manage without me?”
I stared blankly at the red burn on my wrist.
Yeah, I was spoiled for a whole seven years. What am I going to do without him?
But, Christian, I just didn’t want you anymore, didn’t want this fake relationship anymore!
