Chapter 282
282 Meeting at the Same Mall
Nathan pursed his lips as he thought about the relationship between his father and that ugly woman. Every time he remembered it, he got annoyed. Wasn’t that woman ashamed of monopolizing his father all the time? Even his father didn’t have time to accompany him!
Ella felt something strange in her chest. She already knew this from the news. So what did she expect? While at Christian’s house, she really wanted to run away and get out of there. But after she left, why did she still feel displeased?
Ella immediately suppressed her feelings and forced a smile on her face. “Your father also had a life of his own. He has work to attend to so he can pay for your meal!”
Nathan just pouted when he heard Ella’s teasing. But he couldn’t say anything. Finally, he gave up and decided to walk again.
Ella could only stare at Nathan with a gentle gaze and lead him to the ice cream shop.
Nathan looked at the ice cream in his hand with admiration. Even though he ate a lot, he usually only ate full course meals. Christian is very strict about this kind of snack.
At most, Nathan could only eat ice cream and similar snacks once a month.
At this time, there were not many people in the shop. When he saw Ella and Nathan, the shop clerk immediately said, “Your son is very sweet.”
Everyone really wanted to pinch Nathan’s cheeks.
.....
Ella smiled kindly and shook her head. “He’s not my son.”
“Ah? I’m sorry,” said the clerk. “But you two look like mother and son. Your eyebrows are also very similar.”
Ella looked down and looked at Nathan’s face, noticing the fat boy’s eyebrows.
But all she could see in Nathan’s face were Christian’s features. It seems Christian’s DNA is too strong for Ella to see anyone else in Nathan’s figure.
With a face like this, it would not be easy to find Nathan’s birth mother.
Nathan quickly finished his ice cream. He licked his lips clean. When he wanted to buy another one, he couldn’t afford to ask Ella for it.
Previously, he had promised to lose weight.
Ella took out her cell phone to check the time. Then she said, “Would you like a buffet?”
“Buffet? What’s that?” Nathan looked at Ella innocently. So far, Nathan has only eaten at Indonesian and western restaurants.
“It’s a place with lots of great food!” When he heard Ella’s answer, Nathan immediately stood up and took Ella’s hand impatiently. “Let’s go then!”
He couldn’t wait any longer.
He even forgot that a second ago, he was still thinking about how to lose weight.
Ella smiled at the enthusiasm. “The place is not far from here. Let’s go over there.”‘
The two of them exited the ice cream shop and looked for the escalator to get to the fourth floor. Ella had never eaten at the buffet she was referring to, but she had seen it on the internet. Many people say that the place serves a variety of delicious food. That’s why she wanted to take Nathan there.
As they were almost there, Ella raised her head and took a deep breath at the sight of someone.
Christian.
Luckily, only Ella saw Christian while the man did not know her whereabouts.
Ella stood where she was, feeling like her feet were stuck to the ground. She couldn’t walk anymore.
After not seeing each other for a while, the man still looked as handsome as before. He looks handsome and also cold.
Even though there was Nadia standing beside him, the women around him still stole glances at Christian.
He is like a king in this world. The aura from his body was enough to attract everyone’s attention. Meanwhile, Nadia also looked prettier than usual.
This is what Christian’s life is like without her.
Maybe, their meeting was just a dream. Maybe they never met. Maybe Christian never knew Ella and Ella never knew Christian.
Maybe their relationship was just Ella’s imagination.
For some reason, Ella can’t remember the little details when she and Christian were together.
But she still vividly remembers the time she begged Christian not to look for her. She also remembers well when Christian told her not to appear in front of him again.
At that time, Ella was relieved when Christian agreed. But she was actually unhappy...
As she walked, Christian listened to Nadia’s chatter beside him impatiently.
“Tian, ??there are two good restaurants here. What do you want to eat?” Nobody knew what Nadia was thinking today. Why did this woman bring the man to such a bustling place to eat?
Christian was annoyed. But he had to endure it. This was for the sake of shocking news. He did it to lure Ella out of her hiding place.
Every day, news about him and Nadia would fill the newspapers. He was confident that Ella would appear in front of him with a furious face, asking for the clarity of their relationship.
Ella must want to know why Christian could find another woman so quickly, right? She wouldn’t be able to calm down until she asked him directly.
Christian feels his mood slightly improve at the thought.
Meanwhile, Nadia looks at Christian with a smile on her face. She doesn’t care what Christian is thinking right now. As long as she can stay by his side, she’s content with it.
Their relationship went smoothly. She would become Christian’s wife soon and all other women would bow down before her.
“Tian, ??how about we eat here?”
Christian lifted his head and looked at the restaurant Nadia pointed to. It was a restaurant that served Indonesian cuisine, but with a luxurious concept.
This made Christian think of Ella. The woman always prefered Indonesian food.
His eyes looked softer at the memory.
Without answering Nadia, he went straight into the restaurant, followed by Nadia.
At the same time, Ella also took Nathan to the buffet restaurant. The restaurant was famous for not being too expensive and having good taste.
When she entered, Ella smiled sadly. This was the difference between her life and Christian. She couldn’t afford a luxury meal like Christian and Nadia.
The distance between them was so far.
Ella shook her head, trying to shake off the thoughts that were bothering her.
Nathan entered the restaurant like it was the first time he had gone to a playground. He could see a variety of delicious foods neatly arranged on the table.
He immediately took many kinds and headed to a table. Suddenly, his cell phone rang.
His father called him again.
Nathan picked up the call. Before he could speak, Ella had already said, “Fat boy, what else do you want to eat?”
