Chapter 301
301 Playing in the Park
“Are you guys together?” Christian immediately felt jealous. He looked at Liam with a look of enmity.
“Just ask her yourself.”
“Where is she?” Christian’s angry eyes suddenly disappeared. He asked with a calm face.
If he could, he really wanted to step forward and punch Liam’s nonchalant face. Ella must be in touch with him now. Otherwise, how could he possibly find Ella so easily.
Luca didn’t understand why Liam would tell Christian where Ella was. He could clearly see that Liam also loved Ella.
As if he could understand Luca’s unspoken question, Liam said, “I prefer her happiness.”
That one sentence took Christian by surprise, and overwhelmed him with happiness. But he still looked so calm on the outside that others couldn’t see his thoughts clearly.
Liam smiled faintly and walked over to Christian. “I hope you can give Ella the right place. I hope you can shed some light on her,” Liam said seriously, before adding, “If she accepted you again.”
Liam knew very well how Ella’s character was. Even though Ella had accepted her feelings that she loved Christian now, she wouldn’t come back to Christian easily.
.....
The more she realized that she had fallen in love, the better she would guard her heart.
“Didn’t I already do it before?” Christian asked back. He felt that the clarity of their relationship was not important. Why label a relationship? Isn’t it important that they can be together?
“What? As your woman?” Liam looked at Christian with disdain. “Ella is a very fragile woman. Too many people have deceived and betrayed her. What you gave her could not make her feel calm. That’s why she panicked and left you.” In the end, Liam could only smile bitterly. “I don’t understand what I’m lacking compared to you.”
“Everything,” Christian replied confidently.
He wouldn’t thank Liam just because Liam decided to give Ella to him. In his opinion, Ella was his from the start.
Liam snorted and left the room.
Luca couldn’t react when he saw their conversation. After looking at Christian for a while, he finally said, “The little girl is in the garden next to the studio.”
“The little girl?” Christian looked at Luca coldly.
It was a special nickname for Ella. Just like when Ella called Nathan a fat boy or little master. Just like when Nathan called Ella an old woman.
It was a special nickname between the two of them.
Was Ella and this man that close? Even Christian didn’t have a nickname for Ella!
Luca waved his hand quickly, “Don’t get me wrong. My relationship with Ella isn’t that complicated.” Inwardly, Luca complained that Christian’s possessiveness was so scary. He didn’t understand how Ella could survive with him.
Luca’s brief explanation made Christian’s face serious. “Better keep it that way. Otherwise, I won’t let you get away with it.”
Christian didn’t plan on taking care of Luca right now, not because he’s being generous. But now he had to meet Ella first. He didn’t have much time.
After Christian left, Luca took a deep breath and walked into the room inside, seeing Liam sitting pensively.
“I’ve given up on her. Why do I still feel sad?”
Luca patted Liam on the shoulder and said, “Don’t think too much about it. Your life must go on even if your love fails.”
Liam was forced to smile when he heard Luca’s words and looked at him. “You seem to have a lot of experience.”
“You think so?” Luke just laughed. But the laughter sounded bland.
Liam didn’t question it and said, “If Ella didn’t like him, I wouldn’t let her go.”
If only Ella’s heart was empty right now, Liam would still try to approach her. But unfortunately, Ella already had Christian in her heart. He couldn’t keep pushing Ella and stressing her too much with all the attention and love he gave her. He felt that his love for Ella was a burden.
At the same time, Ella was taking a walk in the park.
Sitting and painting all day in the studio made her whole body feel sore and tense. Sometimes, she also needed to move around.
While living at Christian’s house, every day she just needed to be lazy so working like this made her feel tired.
There was a small playground in the park and the playground had a sand pool. Usually, this place would be crowded with children had have just finished school.
After losing her child, Ella became more and more fond of children. If her son was still alive, he would run around and play in this park with her.
Ella tied her long hair into a ponytail when she invited the children in the park to play together. She had no makeup on, making her look much younger. Her joy was so contagious that many small children gathered and invited her to play together.
Ella smiled seeing all these children.
If she could no longer paint one day, maybe she could become a kindergarten teacher to teach young children.
But she had a history of being in a mental hospital. Wouldn’t that scare the principal and the other teachers?
“Sis, what are you doing?” A girl asked in a low voice as she approached her.
Ella felt her heart melt when she saw this adorable child.
“I’m making sand castles. A very big palace.”
As a child, Ella had never played in a place like this. The older she got, the more impossible it was for her to go to a playground filled only with children.
This was the first time she had played in the sand pool at the small playground. It felt so new.
“Palace?” The little girl’s eyes widened and then she cried out. “You are really great!”
Ella felt a little embarrassed at the compliment. But she can also feel the feeling of returning to her childhood. At that time, she doesn’t have to think about anything but playing.
“Of course I’m great. Because this big sister is older than you. One day, when you grow up, you will also become a great person.”
Ella’s extraordinary beauty while playing with the children caught the attention of many people around.
Several men even ventured up to her and asked for her cell phone number, ending with a subtle refusal from Ella.
For some reason, Ella is always reminded of Christian’s handsome face. No one can compare to that man. Whenever a man tries to approach her, Ella always refuses because she knows that her heart is no longer with her.
Her heart was left at Christian’s house, or maybe in the man’s hand.
