Chapter 96


    Chapter 96 Wear Them For The Time Being


    “You are too emotional, Ana.”


    Callie’s words suddenly snapped Yuliana back to reality.


    In fact, her thoughts were simr to Callie’s at first. The only difference was that she hadn’t made ns


    with the intention of reaping any benefits. She only wanted to give the child an identity. Everything she


    did was for the child.


    She was hesitating now because her heart had wavered ever so slightly.


    She was worried that she would keep falling deeper, only for it all to be a fool’s paradise like her


    marriage with Harry.


    But it wasn’t that big a deal, was it?


    She came to terms with her grief a month or two after her divorce and even fell in love with another


    man in just a few months.


    For her, the most important thing now was her baby. Her marrying Christopher was the best choice for


    the child.


    Yuliana eventually muttered, “I know what to do.”


    “Let me know after you choose a date,” Callie replied. “Your father might be in prison, but you have


    me.”


    Yuliana hummed lightly.


    Callie then added, “It’s gettingte. You’re pregnant now. You should get some rest.”


    Yuliana hummed again and hung up the phone.


    Still, she felt a little worried.


    “Christopher might have suggested we get married, but will the Sce family agree to it?” she thought.


    With this worrisome thought in mind, Yuliana fell asleep, but she woke up early at dawn the next day


    because of a dream.


    It was not a scary nightmare. However, Yuliana sat in bed for a long time after waking up. She didn’t


    come back to her senses until the rm rang.


    On Monday afternoon, Yuliana sent a message to Christopher and asked to meet him.


    Christopher didn’t reply to her.


    Even though Yuliana was unsure whether he saw her message, she still regretted sending the


    message. Gradually growing anxious, Yuliana found it impossible for her to calm down. As thest two


    sses were not hers, she applied for a leave from school and left in advance to go home. She then


    quietly sorted out her thoughts while she waited for Christopher toe.


    She was supposed to meet Christopher at 6:30 p.m. However, he hadn’t shown up even at 7 p.m.


    Half an hourter, when Yuliana was hesitating about whether to call Christopher, there was a knock on


    the door


    Yuliana immediately jumped off the couch. She even forgot to put on her slippers as she hurried over to


    open


    the door.


    It filled her with relief to see Christopher standing there.


    Lips pursed, Christopher gazed at her face for a moment before he asked, “Are we going to stand here


    and talk?”


    Yuliana finally came to her senses when she heard that. She then quickly opened the door and stood


    aside to let Christopher in.


    As Christopher stepped over the threshold, his eyes fell on her feet subconsciously.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Yuliana had taken off her shoes and socks and put on a pair of slippers when she came home. Her


    petite, snow-white feet looked dazzlingly fair against the dark wooden floor.


    Christopher couldn’t help but estimate the size of her feet, which were about the length of his palms.


    When Yuliana noticed Christopher’s gaze, she followed it, and soon her eyes stopped at her feet. For


    some reason, she felt a prickly sensation on the back of her feet that made her want to hide.


    She finally closed the door, scurried to the couch, and put on her slippers.


    Christopher took off his shoes and came in with his socks on. Yuliana looked at him for a brief moment,


    and after she thought about it, she shuffled to the shoe cab and took out a pair of slippers. These


    were a pair of slightly bigger slippers she bought for the summer. They had been left in the innermost


    part of the shoe cab ever since she brought them home.


    She ced the slippers next to Christopher’s feet and offered, “Try them on.”


    Christopher could tell that they were much smaller than his size at a nce without wearing them. Still,


    he slipped his feet in. The slippers ended up feeling a little too tight for the widest part of his feet, and


    his heels. hung outside the slippers.


    He then looked up at Yuliana, who had an embarrassed look on her face.


    She gingerly asked, “How about you wear them for the time being? I’ll buy a bigger pair.”
