He decided he would forego lunch, and leave at 1:00, or as close to 1:00 as possible to enjoy the pizza  and wine as Serena suggested.  He was glad to see she had tone down her bitter attitude she had with him the night before.  It was rare to see the jealous side of his wife, a smirk creeps across Christian's lips as he mused at here jealousy, especially since it was all in her head.<br/><br/>Christian answered a few emails, stopped by Amanda's front desk to chitchat with her on the way to the restroom, making idle talk about whatever the current topics were.  He made sure to make strict eye contact with her, but noticed his eyes would wonder sporadically. he chalked it up to being a male, and it's what males did.<br/>==========================================================================================
