Chapter 150
150 Envy and Jealousy
“Mom, Liam agreed to give me 1 billion. Hurry up and clean up all of Ella’s stuff at home. He will send someone to pick it up tomorrow. Don’t forget all of Ella’s junk in the warehouse. Just give it all to him!”
Indri no longer cared about all of Ella’s belongings.
It’s better for her to throw all those things away than to keep them because who knew if it’d turn into a curse for her later.
After contacting her mother, Indri rushed to contact Liam’s assistant. The assistant had received instructions from Liam beforehand and immediately sent the money to Indri.
Seeing the amount of money that went into her account, Indri was really relieved.
At first, she wanted to go home and tell her father that she could solve her own problems.
But unfortunately, her father did not come home that night so she could only send the money to her father.
All of her problems were finally resolved very smoothly.
...
.....
The next day, early in the morning, Liam sent someone to pick up Ella’s belongings. Seeing all the things being taken away, Indri could only console herself and said that at least her house wouldn’t be full of trash.
But actually, she was jealous.
“Unexpectedly, that damn woman is really great,” she said while squinting her eyes.
Indri felt jealous, especially when she saw how Liam treated Ella. Although Haikal was also kind to her, the man had never spent this much money on her.
She didn’t understand why there were so many men who would sacrifice anything for Ella, when no one else would do it for her.
What exactly did she lack from Ella?
She was also beautiful. She also had a good family background, even better than Ella because she still had her mother.
Meanwhile, Ella no longer had a mother and her father had dumped her.
But why did Indri still feel lost to Ella?
She already had everything, but she was still not satisfied!
Merry could understand what her daughter was thinking and stroked her hand gently. “There are so many women in this world, but so few great women. As long as you listen to my words, I promise you will have everything Ella has. No less.”
Isn’t Haikal the best example?
Haikal likes Ella. But humans are inherently greedy. He liked Ella’s appearance, but appearances were not enough.
Ella is beautiful, but she is independent and stubborn. Haikal felt he could not restrain Ella. As a man, he felt he could not control Ella.
Meanwhile, although her appearance is not as attractive as Ella, Indri’s character is much sweeter. She is spoiled and affectionate, making Haikal able to feel the pride of a man.
He felt he was above Indri and could control her.
In the end, he chose Indri.
Indri was able to snatch Haikal from Ella’s hands. Didn’t that mean Indri had abilities and strengths that Ella didn’t have? How could someone as lowly as Ella be her rival?
Now she sat at the top as the eldest daughter of the Maheswara Family after Ella was kicked out of the house. She had everything that Ella didn’t have!
Indri’s eyes lit up when she heard her mother’s words. She was about to answer, but her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing Haikal’s name on her screen, a smile immediately filled Indri’s lips.
“Haika-”
Before Indri could even say his name, Haikal had interrupted. “What does your father want, huh? Didn’t you say your father wanted to invest the money? I’ve been waiting until now, but there’s been no action at all.”
Haikal was really angry. He looked up and stared at the ceiling of his office saying, “Tell your father that the shares in your company have nothing to do with me. What I care about right now is just my project. If he can’t invest the money, I won’t care about your troubles anymore.”
“Haikal!”
Once again, before Indri could mention Haikal’s name, the man had hung up the phone.
Indri looked at her phone’s screen sadly, she could only swallow the bitterness in her mouth.
Haikal had never behaved like this to her. All of this happened after Ella returned to their lives.
If only Ella didn’t come back...
If only that woman had died!
Merry could hear the conversation clearly. She immediately pulled Indri and took her out of the room. “Come with me to meet Christian.”
...
At this time, Ella was in Christian’s office. She looked sleepy while reading the cookbook in her hand. She didn’t understand what Christian was thinking.
There were so many chefs in this company, but why should she cook for Christian?
She’d been alive for twenty-three years and she’d only been in the kitchen to cook once, which was when she made a cake for Christian.
Plus, she realized that she had no talent for cooking. What was this man trying to do with her?
“How many recipes have you studied?”
The low voice made Ella’s drowsiness disappear instantly, like a student caught falling asleep during class by her teacher.
She sat up straight and lifted the magazine. “I’ve studied one.”
“Then make it for me now.”
Ella immediately dodged, trying to buy time so she wouldn’t be sent to the kitchen. “I still want to explore it.”
Ella didn’t want to cook. Even if she followed this recipe book, the results would not be the same. If anything were to happen to Christian, it would be her who would suffer later.
What if Christian got poisoned?
Not only would he die, Ella’s life would also end!
That was why, in order for her not to suffer, she had to find a way to escape.
Christian took his eyes off the computer screen in front of him and his gaze fell on Ella’s uncertain face.
Actually, he didn’t have to eat Ella’s cooking. But he accidentally saw on the internet that today’s women liked to cook for their partners.
Even women who had never touched the kitchen would eventually learn to cook for their husbands.
As he read the article, Christian was reminded of Ella.
Ella felt Christian’s gaze on her. Subconsciously, her hand gripped the recipe book tightly. She couldn’t stand the pressure from Christian and finally lifted her head. “I’m going to the kitchen.”
She’d better buy time in the kitchen instead. Or, she could ask the chef of this company to cook, while she would only be an assistant.
Perfect! She had to leave immediately!
After saying that to herself, Ella immediately ran away from there.
At the same time, Christian got a call from Jason.
“Sir, Mrs. Merry and her daughter have come to see you. She said she had something important to discuss with you.”
