In order to save her residence, Ella left Christian at the hotel alone and rushed back to the apartment she rented.
The owner of the apartment, a middle aged woman, was already waiting at Ella's apartment door as if she was sure that Ella would not be able to pay the rent.
"Ma'am…"
Ella gasped for breath as she returned to her apartment in a hurry. If she lost this place, she might not be able to find another place that fit her budget. Even though this place was pretty old, Ella could only afford to rent this one.
Before Ella could catch her breath and calm herself down, the woman had already reached out with her hands on her hips.
"Where is the money?" She asked.
Ella immediately took the money out of her purse and gave it to her without saying anything. She was still busy trying to catch her breath.
At the same time, she cursed angrily in her heart. If it weren't for this woman, her goal would have been achieved!
The woman did not expect Ella to have the money to pay her rent. After all, Ella had been stressing over and avoiding her in the past few days.
She looked at Ella suspiciously. Where did this girl get the money from?
Ella could understand what the woman was thinking because it was so clear on her face.
The landlady thought that Ella was doing something so disgusting out there that she could get this much money.
Maybe Ella worked in the nightclub or sold her body.
But that's none of her business.
She only cared about the rent money in her hands. She looked calm as she looked at Ella. "Young people today… There are indeed many ways to earn money. Well, the important thing is that next time you pay on time."
After saying that, the landlady left Ella, without giving her a chance to speak a single word.
Seeing that she was gone, Ella could only breathe a sigh of relief. She wiped the sweat off her forehead as she ran home.
Should she thank her family for not taking all the jewelry she wore when they threw her into a mental hospital?
She hid her earrings until she could get out of the mental hospital. Then, once she regained her freedom, she sold the earrings for 2 million.
With some of the work she did over the past few days, she managed to raise a total of 7 million.
She didn't mind selling the earring, but her plan failed miserably because of the landlady!
It's been an unlucky day for her!
Opportunity was in sight, but she had to let it go.
Ella walked into her apartment tired, wondering what Christian would think when he woke up and didn't see her around.
Maybe Christian would think she was stupid.
Ella could only lie on her bed with a long sigh. She had missed a great opportunity for revenge.
…
—Inside the hotel's presidential suite.
Christian opened his eyes and found the space beside him empty. Apart from the big messy bed, there was no trace left there.
Ella's faint scent still lingered in the room, but the girl's figure was nowhere to be seen. Even the bathroom door was wide open with the lights still off.
Christian frowned. His face turned grim as he touched the cold blanket with his large palm.
Did that woman… toy with him?
Ella left the room and didn't leave the slightest trace.
Christian got to his feet and recalled how Ella had neatly folded her clothes yesterday. For some reason, he felt anxious when he found out that the woman had left without saying goodbye.
Suddenly, a knock was heard on the door, causing Christian's dark eyes to suddenly light up.
Yesterday, Ella prepared dinner for him. Was this another surprise?
However, the sound following it made him feel very disappointed.
"Master, would you like your breakfast to be prepared now?" An unknown voice rang out from the front door.
Yesterday, the maid learned that Christian brought a woman into his hotel room. But early in the morning, the woman left the hotel alone.
It's Christian time for breakfast.
The maid was too scared to knock on the door, but this was her job every time Christian stayed there.
Christian put his night robe back on before saying coldly, "Come in."
The maid was already frightened, and now she trembled even more. She opened the door in a panic and cleared the plates last night. After that, she served breakfast.
The cold eyes that continued to stare at her made her hands tremble violently. She really wanted to run away from there.
Just as she was about to leave, Christian suddenly asked, "Where is the woman from last night?"
"She left in a hurry this morning," the maid lowered her head. She couldn't stand the pressure from Christian's gaze.
"Where did she go?"
Christian looked at the maid intently, expecting an answer from her.
"Sir, I am sorry. I don't know…"
Her voice grew weaker and weaker. She was afraid that she would ruin Christian's mood, which had been bad since morning.
After a moment of silence, the maid spoke again with a shaky voice, "Sir, I really don't know…" her legs felt very weak.
"Get out," the man's voice made the maid feel very relieved. She then rushed out of the room.
After the door closed, Christian's eyes grew even darker.
It's just a woman. Why did he have to look for her like this?
But he was very curious. What made the woman leave in such a hurry?
Didn't she say she wouldn't miss a great opportunity?
Christian knew that Ella was taking advantage of his attraction to her. But the woman hadn't gotten anything yet, so why did she suddenly leave?
As soon as he sat down at the dining table, he got a call from his assistant.
Her assistant reported some issues related to work and accidentally mentioned Ella's name.
"She used the Maheswara Family name to force the person in charge of managing the hotel to go upstairs."
The Maheswara Family was one of the most influential families in the city.
Although the family was nothing compared to Christian's, their position was not low either.
In front of the Maheswara Family, the hotel could not resist. They would do anything to please that family.
Christian sneered, "People are getting bolder now."
Just like the little woman who used various ways to get into his room... The same woman who tried to get close to him and just left him.
Jason, Christian's assistant, didn't say anything else. Inwardly, he just wondered what his boss really meant.
After thinking about it for a while, he finally asked, "Do I need to take care of her?"
"No need." After that, Christian immediately hung up their call.
Jason looked at his phone in bewilderment. He was surprised by his master's reaction. But it didn't take long for him to forget about this matter and continue his work.
