Loveless Marriage
Chapter 7  Did He Give You a Hard Time?

Thinking about their three-year marriage, she felt it was like two strangers living under the same roof who were tied up by a contract. How had she stayed with Christian, a calm and restrained man who always drawn the line clearly with her, for wholly three years? Just then, Isabella suddenly felt sharp pains in her lower abdomen. Her face turned pale, and her legs went limp that she almost fell.

Luke quickly held her and asked worriedly when he saw her pale face: "Are you feeling sick? I'll send you to hospital. "

"I'm okay." Isabella struggled to stand up and said with a bitter look: "Actually, I envy you, Luke. You can get divorced when your marriage wasn't went well".

"Christian and you...?" Although Luke hadn't been back for a few years, he knew that Isabella had married Christian. He heard that Miller's family background was not very good either. "Did he give you a hard time?"

Isabella shook her head and signed.

It was actually better for Christian to give her a hard time, or even to laugh at her sometime, but just his cold and indifferent attitude, and coming home merely once a week, making her felt that 'home' didn't exist for him.

As soon as Isabella wanted to say something, she saw a group of people walking towards her.

Those men in suits were seemingly business elites. The most front man wore an iron-gray suit with his short black hair was neatly combed back. He had an outstanding temperament.

Isabella then saw the slim figure by his side in a bright gray dress. Her skin was white and delicate, and she smiled slightly.

Isabella's body froze. She had an intuition that it must be this woman who answered the phone last time. She must be!

At the same time, Christian, who was walking over, saw Isabella as well.

Seeing Isabella was with a man, he frowned. Just when he was about to say something, the woman had already opened the door and gently said: "Mr. Miller, please come in." Isabella thought it was indeed the woman who answered her phone, whose voice was even better in real life.

Seeing Christian and his men pass her without saying a word, Isabella grasped her dress tightly.

She also wanted to leave in an indifferent way, but her lower abdomen suddenly ached so much. She fell down straightly.

"Isabella?"

Hearing Luke's urgent shout, Christian looked outside, only to found that Isabella, with a pale face, was lying on the ground. He walked over in a rush.

"Let her go." Christian then carried Isabella and walked out of the hotel with a sullen face.

Luke almost guessed who he was, so he did not chased.

Christian carried Isabella to the emergency room in hospital.

He called Lexie to cancel the negotiation tonight while he was waiting.

After around ten minutes, the ward door opened.

The doctor asked: "Are you her husband?"

Christian nodded, "Yes."

"Take a good care of your wife. She shouldn't drink and smoke any more."

The doctor then blamed, "Her uterus has some issue. If she doesn't adjust her lifestyle and take care of her body, she may even not be pregnant later. I have prescribed some medicine. Make sure she takes it on time. "

"Thanks, doctor."

Even after the doctor had already left, Christian was still wondering his words. He rubbed his temples.

Due to his family, he had no choice but to marry Isabella. Naturally, he was disgusted with the marriage and requested a prenuptial agreement. He hoped that he could get a divorce smoothly. However, he still felt uncomfortable while seeing she lived such a life and suffered from illness as well. She was, after all, just a young girl in her twenties, so he should take care of her. Christian bought some hot porridge at the hospital's grocery.

When he entered the ward, Isabella had just woken up, struggling to sit up.

"Don't move." Christian walked over and put a pillow on her back to make her feel comfortable. "You told me that smoking was just for fun. When did you become addicted?"

"So he didn't leave?
