"Christian ..." The words had already reached Ella's lips. She was about to say it but she hastily stopped herself.
She loved Christian.
Unfortunately, the weight of the words was too heavy. It couldn't be said easily.
Hearing Ella call his name, Christian's body tensed up. He thought he would get the answer he wanted from Ella's lips. But unlike what he had imagined, the woman in front of him suddenly stopped talking.
It was undeniable that there was a hint of disappointment in his heart. However, Christian tried to ignore the feeling. He knew that it was difficult for Ella to do so because of what had happened to her in the past.
The betrayal she felt was so great that her heart was now surrounded by a very thick wall.
But Christian was sure that sooner or later, Ella would surely show her feelings.
Breakfast was served neatly on the table. They ate leisurely, ignoring Hartono who was in the family room, waiting for them.
