Chapter 267
267 Depending on One Woman
Christian feels that Ella is not taking the initiative to meet him because what he is doing has not had enough impact.
Going to a party with Nadia was just a little game, just for the opening. After this, he will show other surprises and let the media make news headlines out of it.
Of course, all the surprises were for Ella.
A lilting song was heard in the western-themed restaurant.
Nadia sits across from Christian with her gaze fixed on Christian. That look is a sign of happiness.
Nadia did not expect that her relationship with Christian would develop this fast.
However, Nadia knew that she had to be patient. She cannot waste this opportunity. She can’t waste this chance like the other women who throw themselves on Christian’s bed. If that happened, Christian would throw her out the way he dumped Ella.
Nadia cut her steak gracefully and asked the man before her, “Tian, ??what level of steak do you prefer?”
“Well done,” Christian replied briefly.
.....
Nadia is silent for a moment when she realizes that her and Christian’s preferences are different. She smiled and said, “But I think steak tastes best when it’s cooked medium rare. Tian, you should try it ??next time.”
“Do you think I’ve never tried it?” Christian looks at Nadia in annoyance.
He felt lazy to respond to this woman in front of him. Christian remembers that his son also likes well-done steaks. It’s just a matter of preference. Does Nadia need to be this fussy?
When remembering about his son, Christian’s memory unconsciously goes to Ella.
He remembered how Ella ate her food so voraciously. No matter what kind of food, Ella always ate it happily as if she hadn’t eaten in a long time.
Subconsciously, a smile appears on Christian’s face as he thinks about Ella. Seeing that smile, Nadia immediately blushed. She thought the smile was meant for her.
Christian is the most perfect man she has ever met in this world.
She met Christian when they were young, thinking Christian was just a little more handsome and attractive than the other boys. At that time, Nadia was so haughty and arrogant. She felt that her abilities were extraordinary, so Christian’s attractive appearance was not enough for her.
A few years later, Christian has made his name in the business world with his own abilities.
Nadia hesitated for a long time, not knowing if she should appear before Christian. Who would’ve known that in the midst of her doubts, Christian suddenly had a son.
Using his son as an excuse, Christian rejected all women who approached him.
There is even a rumor going around that anyone who wants to be with him must have good looks, a high education and the ability to help him in the business world.
It was at that moment, Nadia decided that she would be with Christian.
Nadia is trying hard to develop her career and earn many achievements, making herself the woman she is today.
Now, she is worthy enough to stand by Christian’s side. Only she deserves that place.
Nadia keeps staring at Christian, not touching her food at all. This makes Christian frown. He looked back at the woman in front of him with annoyance. “If you don’t want to eat, just go home.”
“Ah no.” Nadia shook her head and continued her dinner.
Nadia doesn’t mind Christian’s attitude. She knows that Ella is still in Christian’s heart. But that’s not a problem for her. Sooner or later, Christian will be hers.
Nadia didn’t mind even though she had to wait a long time. The important thing is that in the end, she can get Christian.
Christian drinks his wine while looking out the window. He could clearly see that there was a reporter holding a camera and pointing it at his window.
Christian turns and asks the woman. “Do you ladies easily get jealous?”
Nadia was silent for a moment. She took a tissue on the table and wiped her lips gracefully before answering, “It depends on the character and nature of the person. For me, the important thing is that my partner and I can communicate well. Then, everything will be fine.”
“If your partner can’t explain it to you...”
Christian is not satisfied with Nadia’s answer. How about Ella? If he asked Ella, what would Ella tell him?
“If he can’t explain it to me, I will believe him.” Nadia thinks Christian is testing her now so she answers very seriously, trying to answer very carefully.
Christian felt very annoyed when he heard this answer.
How could Ella possibly believe him? Ella should be angry and then come back to him, asking why Christian had gotten a new woman so quickly after their breakup.
At the thought of Ella’s beautiful face, Christian started to feel anxious again.
He knew that many men chased Ella. Maybe she had found herself a new man now.
Suddenly, Christian’s hands were clenched into fists. Nadia noticed Christian’s bad mood but didn’t understand what’s wrong with her answer. She immediately asked, “Tian, ??what’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
“No. I’m fine.”
Christian pulled back his hand which was touched by Nadia. He took a tissue and wiped it with a disgusted look. “When are you going to finish your meal?”
“I’m done,” Nadia smiled patiently. “Tian, ??you don’t eat much. Would you like to order more?”
“I’m not hungry,” Christian rose coldly and looked at the steak he hadn’t touched.
He had absolutely no intention of having dinner with Nadia.
He came here only to carry out his plan. The plan to bring Ella home back to his side.
The woman he wanted was not beside him so he felt uncomfortable, his sleep had never been peaceful since Ella left. He also had no appetite. He didn’t want to do anything.
In the past, it was Ella who tried to please him and make him happy. Ella tried hard to stay by his side.
But now, Christian needed Ella to move on with his life. Christian felt that his life depended on Ella.
Meanwhile, Ella had disappeared from his side.
Losing Ella made Christian realize how dependent he was on her. Everything he did made him think of Ella.
Every time he ate, he was reminded of Ella who ate beside him. Every time he worked, he thought of Ella sitting on the sofa in his study reading a recipe book with a frown. Every time he came home from work, he thought of Ella playing with Nathan at home.
Everything he did made him think of Ella.
Whenever he went to a new place, he wanted to take Ella there to spend time together.
