Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

62 Already Explained

“Old hag, quickly try on these clothes!”

Nathan’s screams startled Ella that she suddenly woke up from her dream. She opened her eyes and rubbed her head which felt dizzy from waking up suddenly. After that, she looked towards the source of the voice in annoyance.

Nathan was standing there carrying a large box. There was joy on his face.

However, when he noticed the coat that was on Ella’s body, his cheeks suddenly bulged. “Why are you wearing my father’s coat?”

“Your father gave it to me,” Ella smiled.

She felt that this fat kid was too cute to tease.

Quietly, Jason had left the room. He didn’t want to get involved nor did he want to be a victim of Nathan’s mischief either.

Not to mention if his boss suddenly got angry. He didn’t want to be caught in the middle and got punished.

Nathan didn’t say anything, he only looked at Ella.

.....

Then he thought back to the clothes he had chosen for Ella. Suddenly, his mood worsened.

He put the box he was carrying on the table and looked at Christian who was holding a magazine. “Dad, what are you reading?”

“News,” Christian replied casually.

Ella followed Nathan’s gaze and saw that Christian was holding the magazine she was reading earlier. She didn’t know since when the magazine had changed hands.

On the page of the magazine, there was a picture of Haikal and Indri. Ella didn’t notice it before. She only had a glimpse of it. Little did she know that she would fall asleep with the magazine open on that specific page.

She always paid attention to news about her family. As the saying goes, keep your friend close and your enemies closer.

Knowing about her family’s current situation could help her to be alert and plan her next move.

But now Christian has seen it. What Christian thinks is not the same as what Ella thinks.

“Are you still thinking about him?”

Christian’s sudden question takes Ella and Nathan by surprise.

“Who is he?” Nathan winked innocently at his father.

Christian opens his magazine wide on the coffee table in front of him, showing Haikal’s face very clearly.

“He...”

Ella was silent and too lazy to explain. She had explained this to Christian before.

Does Christian think she is stupid? Her feelings for Haikal had long been erased from her heart since the man betrayed her.

Does she look that stupid, still in love with Haikal after he pushed her to hell? After that incident happened, all her feelings for Haikal just disappeared.

People who have never experienced it have no idea how much it hurts to be betrayed.

Unknowingly, Ella was lost in her own thoughts again. Her brows were slightly furrowed. Christian stared intently at Ella’s face, trying to observe every expression on her face.

If she dared to show some reluctance and longing for Haikal, he wouldn’t mind strangling Ella to death with his own hands.

Meanwhile, Nathan didn’t seem to understand the situation. He looked at the face of the man in the magazine and searched for that person in his memory. Finally, he said, “Father, I have never seen this person before.”

Nathan’s tone was so sure that Ella couldn’t help but smile.

Christian also smiled at his son’s innocence. However, after he turned back to Ella, his face looked cold again.

“You’d better give me a reasonable explanation,” he said threateningly.

“I...”

Ella moistened her lips and stepped back. After that, she smiled calmly at Christian. “I’m sure you know how much I hate them. I read information about them. You should also know why I did it.”

Christian thought for a moment and then understood. But his face was getting darker now.

He was so worried about this woman!

For some reason, he wasn’t sure that this woman would always be by his side. He was worried that the moment he let his guard down, this woman would disappear like smoke.

The aura from Christian’s body made Ella and Nathan scared. Before Nathan could find an excuse to run away, Ella had asked first, “What did this little master bring for me just now?”

Nathan took back the box he had placed on the table. He didn’t want to give the box to Ella. His excitement when choosing clothes for Ella had just disappeared.

She is just like the other bad women!

“I won’t give it to you!” His lips looked pouty. He planned to go out carrying the box.

Ella didn’t want to face Christian so she wouldn’t let Nathan get out of there.

She stepped forward and stood in front of the boy. “Let me guess. This box is for me, right?”

Ella remembered the name on the box, which was the name of a boutique that sold high-end women’s clothing.

Nathan’s face immediately turned red because he was caught. He was still holding the box, not wanting to let it go. Right now, he didn’t even want to look at Ella’s face.

The woman must have known that he had chosen the clothes for her and deliberately wanted to show off her pride in front of him.

“This is not for you!” Nathan looked everywhere else, except at Ella.

Nathan’s appearance made Ella raise her eyebrows. This chubby kid sometimes looks really cute.

“Then who will you give it to?” She points at Christian with her head. “Is it for your father?”

Nathan nodded. Ella held Christian’s coat that was on her body so it wouldn’t sag and crouched down in front of Nathan. “But this box is for women, your father can’t wear it. Could you possibly ask your father to find a new mother for you?”

Ella nodded to herself and continued, “Hmm... That makes a lot of sense. I think the message behind it will be clearly conveyed. But your father will be angry.”

Ella looked at Nathan once more, feeling that Christian’s DNA was really strong. Nathan’s face is 80% similar to Christian, handsome and charming.

If only the boy had been a little sweeter, Ella would have been pinching his cheeks in exasperation.

Christian can only watch all this in silence. How did it feel to be ignored by the two people right in front of him?

Nathan didn’t dare to use his father’s name anymore and he didn’t want to have a new mother. He held the box tightly and thought again.

Finally, he gave it reluctantly and added, “This. Uncle Jason picked it up and told me to deliver it.”

Of course Ella didn’t believe it.

If that’s true, why would Nathan lie? He could’ve given it to Ella without needing to find an excuse.

But Ella did not expose Nathan’s lies. After receiving it, she thanked Nathan and went into Christian’s room as if to escape as quickly as possible.

She had forgotten that behind her was another man who kept piercing her figure with cold stares.
