Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

308 Ready to Be My Woman Again

“Miss, Master’s heart is with you,” the butler said.

“I know that you are a smart person. I also know that you are a very reasonable person. Try listening to your own words just now. Does that make sense?” Ella asked, leaving the butler speechless.

They were both silent for a while and finally the butler said, “I’m going out first.”

Ella turned and saw Christian standing in the doorway. Nobody knew how long he’d been there, but it looked like the man heard what Ella and the butler were talking about.

A sense of awkwardness radiated from his face because he became the topic of conversation of the two people in front of him.

“Are you ready?”

That question made Ella feel confused. Ready for what?

Christian walked over to her and took Ella’s hand. “To be my woman again.”

“Christian, you are thinking too much. After Nathan recovers, I will leave this house.” Ella frowned. There was anger on her face.

.....

She rarely showed such an expression to Christian, which took the man a little by surprise.

“Your mouth is still as sharp as ever.” A smile appeared on Christian’s face. He looked at the things Ella had left on the table and said, “I’ve done a lot for you. When will you like me?”

The question left Ella speechless.

Has this man gone mad?

Plus, what had Christian done for her? He didn’t do anything for Ella. He only kept the things that Ella left in this house.

After all, Ella never thought it was hers.

Before Ella could answer, Christian had picked up the necklace that was on the table and put it on for her.

Ella wanted to refuse, but before she could do so, Christian had said, “If you fight back, you know what the consequences will be.”

Ella could only bite her lip and stare at Christian angrily.

Christian was not angry with Ella’s refusal. His gaze fell on Ella’s beautiful face. “This necklace is much prettier when used by the owner.”

While saying that, he grabbed Ella’s hand. Accidentally, he touched something cold on her wrist.

He lifted Ella’s hand and saw a bracelet that made him frown.

Ella had just returned to this house so a sense of happiness swept over him. He didn’t even notice that Ella was wearing a bracelet on her hand.

He looked at the bracelet while asking in a cold tone, “Who gave it to you?”

He knew that with Ella’s current abilities, it would take her a long time to rent a nice house, let alone buy a bracelet like this.

“Can’t I just buy it myself?” Ella replied in an angry tone. When she was about to take her hand, Christian already gripped it tighter.

“How could you buy it?”

“I bought it on the side of the road.” Ella refused to tell Christian that the bracelet was a gift from someone else. Otherwise, Christian would definitely make a fuss about it.

If this bracelet made Christian’s mood worse, Liam would be affected. And Ella would feel guilty for that man.

Christian sneered. His expression was gloomy again. “Do you think I can’t tell the difference between real and fake diamonds?”

“Maybe I accidentally bought a real diamond,” Ella continued to lie.

Lies after lies made Christian’s anger soar even more. The fire in his eyes seemed to want to burn Ella alive.

Ella was ready to accept Christian’s anger.

Indeed, this was what she used to feel before.

But who knew if Christian even hugged her. “I won’t let you hook up with any other man.”

Ella felt her heart beat fast because of the gentle hug.

She sank into his embrace for a moment. But in an instant, she regained consciousness.

She couldn’t have sex with other men, but what about this man? What about Christian hooking up with another woman? What about Christian who already had a fiancée?

Ella’s silence made Christian’s heart feel disappointed. He didn’t know what else to do and just looked at Ella coldly. “Go and take care of Nathan.”

It was what Ella had been waiting for the most. After Christian let her go, Ella immediately left the room.

Christian could only massage his forehead while looking at Ella’s back which was getting further away.

He felt that the distance between them was getting farther and farther away. But how could he possibly let Ella go?

It was rare for him to find a woman he liked, especially in the way he liked Ella. He didn’t even mind even though Ella had given birth to a child in the past.

Why did Ella have to be this cold to him?

When Ella wanted to take advantage of him before, she did whatever it took to please him. But now, when she needed nothing more, Ella left him.

The more he thought about it, the angrier Christian felt. How could he allow himself to be toyed with by a woman like this.

Coincidentally, Jason called him and asked if Christian would like to attend an invitation.

Christian thought for a moment and then said, “Get someone to get Ella dressed.”

Jason was surprised at the order. Ella was back? Would their life be any better now? Ever since Ella left the house, his master’s mood was so bad. He made everyone work overtime every day.

After hanging up the phone, Christian followed Ella into Nathan’s room. They were in the same room, both waiting for Nathan to wake up.

The awkward atmosphere made Ella feel uncomfortable.

“Pour some water for Nathan,” Christian suddenly said.

Ella wondered. Nathan was sleeping now. How could he drink while sleeping? But Ella didn’t want to ask too many questions or talk to Christian a lot so she did as he said.

She poured a glass of warm water.

However, the water turned out to be not for Nathan, but for Christian himself.

Ella could only stare at Christian in silence, speechless. Christian simply replied casually, “I will replace Nathan to drink it.”

Ella knew this man was acting out of place right now so she didn’t argue. She turned her gaze back to Nathan, ignoring Christian who was in the same room as her.

Christian couldn’t stand Ella’s cold attitude. He didn’t want to be ignored like this.

“Who’s the bracelet from?” He asked, starting the conversation.

“None of your business.”

“You are mine. How could it be none of my business?” Christian’s face looked cold. Did this woman not want to be with him?

At this time, Nathan’s low voice sounded from the bed, “Father, why did you snatch your son’s future wife from him?”

“Fat boy! You’ve awakened!”
