Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

309 Feeling Like a Bully

“Father, why did you snatch your son’s future wife from him?” Nathan whispered in his weak voice.

“Fat boy! You have got up!”

The joy and enthusiasm shown by Ella made Christian feel uncomfortable. Why did Ella react like this?

Was his son’s position in Ella’s heart higher than his?

His heart became even sadder when he realized that.

After a while, Nathan felt his sleepiness disappear even though his body still felt uncomfortable. He looked at his father weakly and said, “Father, don’t let the old woman go again, will you?”

Nathan’s request made Ella and Christian both silent. Why did Nathan suddenly ask such a question?

Ella’s expression was awkward for a moment as she looked at Nathan. She smiled at Nathan and said, “Are you feeling better?”

Ella deliberately changed the subject.

.....

Nathan frowned. He wouldn’t be able to calm down until he got a definite answer from Ella. He wanted to tell Ella and his father about what Nadia had told him yesterday, but he had doubts. He hesitated when he thought about his great-grandfather.

If his great-grandfather didn’t like Ella and wanted to hurt her, would his father be able to protect her?

Nathan gritted his teeth and said, “That evil woman wants to hurt you. Old woman, you must not leave my father’s side.”

They all knew very well who the evil woman Nathan was referring to.

If it weren’t for Nathan’s serious face, Christian and Ella would have thought Nathan was joking. They thought Nathan was sulking as usual.

“I’m not a fool. Don’t worry about me,” Ella stroked Nathan’s soft cheek. “I am also very strong. That woman won’t be able to do anything to me.”

“But my great-grandfather likes her very much,” Nathan looked very depressed when he said it. He knew very well how scary his great-grandfather was.

Seeing Ella who was still calm, Nathan finally said again, “Great-grandfather is so scary, especially his eyes.” He took a deep breath as he recalled the time he lived in the main house.

“It doesn’t matter. I am not afraid.” Ella smiled. “I feel bad for him and respect him because he is your great-grandfather. But to me, he is just an insignificant person. So I’m not afraid of him at all.”

Light seemed to return to Nathan’s eyes as he looked at Ella with admiration. This woman deserves to be his future wife. This woman is very brave.

Christian was listening at the side and looked serious. His grandfather wanted to harm Ella? He opened his mouth and said, “I won’t let anything happen to you.”

“I’m not a kid. And I’m not that stupid,” Ella looked at Christian and said calmly.

She wasn’t the naive girl she used to be. She knew how to take care of herself.

Seeing Ella like this, Christian felt a little annoyed. This woman had absolutely no idea what was happening to her. “How can you be this confident? You’ve never even faced him before.”

Meanwhile, Christian knew his grandfather very well. He knew what his grandfather could do.

Christian knew what his grandfather used to do when he was still in the business world. Even though he was retired, that didn’t mean he’s not as cruel as he used to be. He still had many ways and connections if he wanted to destroy someone.

“If I leave you, do you think he’ll waste his time on me?” Ella pouted and her eyes fell on Christian’s face. She could clearly see the anger in the man’s gaze.

She knew that Christian wanted to strangle her to death right now.

Christian couldn’t understand why Ella still insisted on leaving him. Was staying by his side so bad that she always tried to escape?

“I won’t let you go,” his eyes were fixed on Ella, looking at the woman coldly.

Ella could feel her broken heart. In front of this man, she felt tremendous pressure. Even though she tried to be confident and didn’t care, her heart still said otherwise.

Nathan looked even more panicked upon hearing Ella’s words and he immediately said, “Old woman, can you not go? I’m lonely here.”

For the first time, Nathan spoke in a tone that appealed to others.

Ella herself was surprised when she heard that. In her heart, Nathan was such an important figure that she could feel her heart slowly melt when she heard him say it.

She didn’t want to leave Nathan. She didn’t want Nathan to feel lonely. She didn’t want Nathan to feel like he didn’t have a family, like she did.

But Christian...

Christian could see the doubt in Ella’s eyes. As he had expected all along, Nathan’s position in Ella’s heart was far from his own. He was nothing, while Nathan was everything to Ella.

While he shouldn’t feel this way, Christian couldn’t deny that he felt jealous.

Christian pouted and looked at Ella. “Do you think you can get out of this house without my permission?”

Regardless of how they both feel, Christian is someone who never gives up. He never fails to get what he wants, no matter what.

Just as Ella was about to answer, Christian continued, “Stay here. I’ll let you go to the studio if you stay here.”

This was the greatest tolerance Christian could give Ella. If Ella still refused to accept it, Christian didn’t know what else to do but force her.

She didn’t want something bad to happen to Ella because of his grandfather...

Ella frowned as she looked into Christian’s face, as if thinking about the reason why the man in front of her insisted on not letting her go. Suddenly, she laughed. “Do you want to use me as a shield because you changed your mind and don’t want to marry Nadia?”

Ella tilted her head. She was smiling right now, but it didn’t reach her eyes.

Christian felt a headache when facing this woman. He just wanted Ella to be by his side. Why did this woman always think bad things about him?

Was he that bad in Ella’s eyes?

“If I don’t want to get married, do you think anyone can force me?” Christian replied coldly.

If he was afraid of his grandfather, he might have married the woman of his grandfather’s choice when he brought Nathan to the Adipamungkas Family.

Ella averted her gaze from Christian’s face. Her heart and mind seemed to be at war with each other, making Ella unable to decide.

Unknowingly, her hands were tightly clenched.

Ella knew exactly how she was feeling right now. Although she was too late to realize it and refused to admit her feelings, now she realized what she felt in her heart.

She wanted to stay with Christian.

Different from her previous goal, she didn’t want to approach Christian with the excuse of revenge. This time, her heart was truly sincere. She wanted to be with Christian because her heart always beat faster when she was next to him.

She wanted to be with Christian because her heart was pushing her to do so.

Nathan looked at the two people in front of him with a gaping mouth. He didn’t know what had happened. But somehow, he felt like a nuisance here.

Just as he was about to ask a question, Christian suddenly got up and walked out of the room. “Come with me.”
