Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 294

Chapter 294

Recently, Christopher asked his men to collect evidence of Logan’s crimes over the years. Yahir had also found the person who took Rowan away at the medical service center that day. The police also detained the person and Shirley.

The witnesses and physical evidence were all found. Logan wouldn’t be able to get away with his crime.

After Zavier found out what Christopher had done, he fell out with Christopher completely. Zavier didn’t even put up a courteous front when facing Christopher in the company. Zavier kept bringing up all the decisions Christopher made after taking over the position as the Acting Chairman. Zavier rebuked every mistake Christopher had made and found faults with him.

When Christopher found that the company was under the financial strain, he reviewed the company’s situation and the projects that were currently in progress or on hold. Then, he dealt with some of the branches and projects that were in a state of loss.

Some of them belong to the traditional industry of Solace Corporation, but they were on the verge of being eliminated in recent years. Christopher’s action inevitably caused a lot of dissatisfaction as it affected their interests. Those people didn’t dare to say anything before, but with Zavier taking the lead, they became unscrupulous.

What Joyce said to Christopher that night was not a joke. She had participated in the recent weekly high-level meetings. Although she didn’t blatantly show her hostility toward Christopher and her wish for the latter to leave Solace

Corporation, everyone could sense the strong tension between them. The two almost quarreled in the meeting several times.

There even came a time that Christopher slammed the door of Joyce’s office with a darkened face.

After Yuliana recovered her son, her thoughts had been preoccupied with Rowan. She originally had a maternity matron to help take care of Rowan. After Kylie left, she didn’t want to find another one and did everything herself.

Recently, the atmosphere at the Solace residence was also very tense. There seemed to be a grudge between Joyce and Christopher because of the company’s affairs. They quarreled several times at home, and a few times, they even quarreled in front of the housekeepers.

Yuliana tried to reconcile them, but every time she mentioned these things, Joyce got angry and asked her to persuade Christopher to leave the company without saying anything.

On the other hand, Christopher would ignore her and ask her to stay away the business.

In fact, since Rowan returned to her side, her relationship with Christopher had also changed subtly.

They obviously became much more distant. She hated Christopher a little when Rowan was kidnapped at that time, so she wanted to do something to bridge the relationship between them.

But every time she took the initiative to please Christopher, she received no response.

It couldn’t be said that there was completely no reaction from Christopher.

Christopher reacted. He would toss her around in bed with a gloomy face. He wouldn’t get out of bed to wash until he satisfied his lust, but he wouldn’t hold her as he used to.

These changes were subtle. Yuliana thought it was normal for the passion in the couple to lessen over time. Besides, the recent development in the company should leave Christopher quite frustrated.

She tried to understand him.

But occasionally, Yuliana felt helpless and overwhelmed with a sense of loss. She didn’t know why she and Christopher had come to this point, let alone what would happen in the future. She felt pain in her heart whenever she thought about this.

Yuliana coaxed Rowan into sleep. She stared at Rowan for a long time and caressed his face.

He looked just like Christopher.

Whenever she saw Rowan recently, she couldn’t help but think of Christopher.

Yuliana sat by the crib for a while, then walked to the window, and stood there for a while.

It was already past ten o’clock, and Christopher hadn’t come back yet.

Before dinner, she sent a message to ask Christopher if he would like to come back for dinner. Christopher didn’t reply to her message. She called him again, but it was very noisy on the other end of the line when Christopher answered the phone.

She heard a woman say, “Mr. Solace, what are you doing? Come and have a drink with us.”

Then, she heard the teasing sounds of a few more men.

After that, Christopher said nothing and hung up the phone.

Yuliana stood for a moment and didn’t think about it anymore. She went into the bathroom to wash up and then went to bed.

She turned off the light by the bedside and left the small light at the door on.

After she closed her eyes, Yuliana slowly let out a breath. Her chest felt heavy as if something was pressing on her.

Nobody knew how long she slept.

She didn’t sleep deeply. When she heard something from afar, she woke

She didn’t open her eyes. She heard familiar footsteps approaching and smelled a strong scent of alcohol. She subconsciously frowned.

She could feel him standing by the bed and looking at her motionlessly.

She wanted to ignore him, but she opened her eyes in the end.

Their eyes met.

Yuliana’s eyes were calm, while Christopher’s carried deep emotions like a storm was brewing in them.

Suddenly, Christopher lifted the quilt and picked Yuliana up from the bed.

Yuliana was startled and stared at him while she struggled, “What are you doing?”

Christopher pursed his thin lips and looked down at her, but he didn’t answer. He carried her straight into the bathroom, walked to the shower, and opened the door. The slightly cold water poured from above.

It was September, and the water was very cold at night.

Yuliana couldn’t stand it anymore. She trembled and subconsciously wanted to hide in Christopher’s arms.

Right then, Christopher tore off her clothes and kissed her fiercely.

It was not a pleasant experience.

The feeling was unbearable for Yuliana. She cried and pleaded with him repeatedly, but the man treated her more roughly.

After everything was over, Christopher cleaned them both and dried Yuliana up. Then, he carried her back to the bed.

They each slept on one side of the bed in a back-to-back posture. None of them spoke throughout the night.

At night, Yuliana got up several times to feed Rowan. She fell into a deep slumber at dawn and didn’t even know when Christopher got up.

After she washed up in the morning, she planned to sort out the clothes in the laundry basket and ask Sofia to wash them later. But she suddenly paused when she picked up Christopher’s white shirt from last night.

There was a red stain on the lower part of the collar inside the shirt.

She rubbed her finger with the red stain and put it at the tip of her nose. It turned out Christopher didn’t stain his shirt accidentally. A woman’s lipstick left the red stain. Yuliana recognized the unique fragrance as one of the branded lipsticks.

“But why is it in his shirt?” she wondered.

Yuliana suddenly felt disgusted. She immediately threw the clothes away and went to the basin to retch.

She didn’t eat much last night. After a night, her stomach had already been

empty.

She retched and heaved, but brought nothing up. However, she couldn’t suppress nausea and continued to vomit until she could feel the taste of gastric juice in her mouth. Only then did her retching stopped.

She raised her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror. Her face was pale, and her eyes were brimming with tears because of vomiting. Her hair was messy. She looked miserable and pathetic.
