"But before that happens, I will make the people who framed me suffer."
Those words were filled with the hatred that Ella felt. Unknowingly, his pain seems to be channeled, making Christian feel angry with those who dare to hurt Ella.
"Me too," Christian says, promising to help Ella get her revenge.
"I will remember your promise." Ella smiles at Christian, but if Christian looks closely, he can see sadness and seriousness on his face.
Ella doesn't know how long Christian will be attracted to her like this. He must take advantage of the opportunity when Christian is still kind enough to help him.
If he missed this opportunity, he would have to find another way to take revenge and that would not be easy.
It took him a very long time to rearrange his plans..
Ella wouldn't let that happen. He had to carry out all his plans as quickly as possible.
And he had to work hard and maintain this state now.
Time goes on. Christian is getting more and more immersed in his work, while Ella feels completely bored.
"Can I work today?" asked Ella suddenly.
Christian immediately frowned when he heard the question.
At the thought of Ella going back to work in a place full of bad men, Christian feels furious. His face darkened even more as he recalled what had happened to Ella earlier.
He hugged Ella's waist tightly as if he didn't want to share his favorite toy with anyone else. "Just rest today."
"But…" Ella wanted to argue, but she didn't dare. "Are you going to accompany me today?"
Remembering that Christian picks up his girlfriend in the morning, he will definitely accompany her in the evening. Ella doesn't mind if she has to skip work to thwart Christian and his lover's meeting.
"Can't today."
Christian cannot accompany Ella because today he has to accompany his son.
Christian's refusal makes Ella very disappointed. It seems that woman is very important in Christian's heart. Ella is not the pushy type of woman and she knows when to back off. Finally he nodded. "Okay. I'm just working today."
"Should not."
Christian looks at Ella's neck and says, "Your body is still hurting."
Ella looked at her body and felt her body was fine. Apart from the scar that was still red, he didn't feel any pain anymore.
"It does not matter. I…"
"I can't." Christian immediately cuts off Ella's words, not letting her continue.
The firmness in Christian's tone made Ella shut her mouth immediately.
He doesn't dare go against Christian's words, especially when he thinks that Christian could throw him away before he finishes his revenge.
Finally, he could only nod obediently.
Christian's expression became much calmer as Ella took his word for it.
In the afternoon, Christian gets a call from someone. Before leaving, he told Jason to come into his room.
All day Ella feels really bored, cooped up in Christian's study doing nothing. As she was about to go out for a short walk, Jason stopped her.
"Miss, you must not leave without Master's permission."
Ella looked at Jason's serious face, trying not to strangle this man.
Before Christian leaves, he orders Jason to accompany Ella instead of not letting him go.
"Jason, it seems you don't understand your boss's orders."
Ella pointed at the door and then pointed at herself. Worried that Jason wouldn't understand her, she explained. "Your boss told you to accompany me, not to stop me from going."
Jason's serious face revealed a small smile. "I have worked for Master for five years. Miss there is no need to doubt my abilities."
Ability…
Ella's lips twitched.
The ability to digest and guess Christian's words?
His eyes lit up and he immediately said, "Then, what does it mean if your boss tells me to stay here?"
Jason listened to Ella's words, thinking for a moment. Right now, Ella was trying to suppress him by using her status. Under the pressure, he answered. "I'm worried about Miss's safety."
Ella nodded and asked. "Where is Christian now?"
"Sorry, I can't tell you where Master is now." Jason looked very serious.
Ella rolled her eyes and sat on the sofa. He flipped through the pages of the magazine on the table, but his brain wasn't focused. He couldn't even read a word.
…
At Christian's house.
Before Christian opens the door, he already hears a voice from inside.
"Not good! Do you think I'm an animal? You told me to eat this food…"
Then, there was the sound of plates breaking.
"Young master, what would you like to eat today? Let me have the maid cook it," the butler of the house was sweating while taking care of this little demon.
Nathan came to this house so suddenly that he could not prepare many things.
And now Nathan was giving him a lot of trouble.
"You asked for my help to think of such a small thing. do you have a brain?"
Nathan was standing on the sofa with his hands on his waist, surrounded by the confused and frightened maids. They are afraid to even breathe.
This incident is very ridiculous in the eyes of Christian.
"As a servant, the first thing you should do is understand my thoughts." Nathan stretched out his fat hand and pointed at the butler. "Butler, what do I want to eat today?"
The butler looked around in confusion and finally raised his head. "Meatball?" he answered doubtfully.
"Wrong!"
Nathan immediately frowned in annoyance. "I punish you, eat ten bowls of meatballs today!"
"Alright, Young Master…" said the butler.
Ten bowls of meatballs… Looks like he's going to be full to death.
But at least he knew that Nathan didn't want to eat meatballs. And for the next year, the butler would remember, he would not mention meatballs in front of his young master.
"You…"
Nathan pointed at another servant. "You! What do you think I'd like to eat today?"
"Umm… That…" the maid gulped nervously. "Steak?"
"Steak…"
Nathan thought for a moment and pictured the steak in his mind. The image made him feel hungry and finally he nodded. "So true. I will give you a present."
He got off the sofa and took his Ultraman toy that was on the sofa, then threw it at the waiter.
"Thank you, Young Master."
"You're welcome. I am very good indeed."
Nathan patted his chest and his chubby face wore a satisfied smile.
"You are not allowed to eat today."
"Who dares…" Nathan turned his head and looked towards the source of the voice. When he saw Christian, his eyes immediately lit up brightly. He ran to his father and stood before him very politely.
His voice sounded excited as he shouted. "Father!"
"Hmm…" Christian strokes his son's head gently. "Let's eat!"
"Okay, Dad!"
This time, Nathan was not angry and did not refuse the food served. He sat at the table obediently.
When he saw the food on the table, Christian suddenly remembered about Ella, when Ella prepared a candlelight dinner for him.
Subconsciously, his brow furrowed.
