Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

354 I Really Need Money

“Love is not that simple. Let me give an example. In the past, you liked women who were gentle and innocent. But after meeting me, you fell in love with me. You can’t perceive love this way. No love is the same. Love cannot be equated.”

According to her, every human being had a different way of loving.

Ella felt that her explanation and the examples provided were self-explanatory. What she said was just an example, Ella didn’t think Christian would make a fuss about it.

“I don’t like women like that,” Christian said, frowning. When did he ever say that he liked an innocent and gentle woman?

“What I’m saying is just an analogy,” Ella replied.

“Who said I fell in love with you? I was afraid that unrequited love would make you uncomfortable, so I reluctantly agreed to have a relationship with you.”

Seeing Christian’s confident gaze, Ella felt it’s best if she stayed silent. Currently, Christian’s super high IQ was not online. There was only his low EQ running his brain.

“What you say does make sense. Let’s just say it’s true,” Ella said resignedly. She got out of bed and walked to the bathroom.

Christian followed Ella to the bathroom and helped her wash her face.

.....

“You…” Ella was slightly taken aback by Christian’s sudden action.

“Don’t you like gentle and warm men?” Christian grabbed Ella’s toothbrush and took toothpaste before helping Ella to brush her teeth carefully.

“I will try to be the man you like,” his voice was low. But as soon as it entered Ella’s ear, Ella was immediately stunned.

This arrogant man said that he was willing to be the man Ella wanted him to be.

“Christian,” Ella whispered, calling Christian’s name softly. “You stupid.”

Christian frowned as he listened to Ella’s mockery. He brushed Ella’s teeth even harder, numbing her mouth.

Ella glared at the man beside her. She quickly took a shower and went downstairs in annoyance.

In the dining room, Nathan had just finished his breakfast and was drinking his milk. When he saw Ella, he immediately asked, “Old woman, when are you going to marry my father?”

“It’s still too early,” Ella replied casually.

Nathan nodded and then asked again, “If you have children later, will you ignore me?”

“Why?” Ella smiled and took a piece of ham for Nathan. She knew the habits of this fat boy. His breakfast alone would not be enough to fill his stomach. “Nathan, you are like the sun to my life. Without you, it would be very difficult for me to be by your side. But when you are beside me, I can see the sky so clearly.”

Ella’s words made Nathan very happy.

He immediately felt proud because his position in Ella’s life was so important. His legs dangling from the chair continuously swayed, unable to hide his pleasure.

Ella also smiled when she saw Nathan. As long as Nathan was happy, she was happy too.

But before her happiness lasted so long, Christian’s hands had grabbed her shoulders and forced her to get up from her chair.

Nathan’s feet immediately stopped moving and he screamed, “Father!”

Ella didn’t dare to look back now. She didn’t know what to say to Christian

“Is it hard being beside me?” Christian asked in a deep voice.

Even though it was hard to stay beside him, didn’t Ella come back to him in the end? Christian had tried hard to change his attitude and treat Ella better.

Why did Ella still think like that?

Ella shook her head repeatedly. Of course she wouldn’t admit it.

“Hmm?” Christian’s mutter made Ella’s body tremble.

She smiled and changed the subject. “Nothing. How about breakfast? The food will be cold.”

Ella immediately took some food to Christian’s plate.

“You heartless woman,” Christian mumbled. Finally, he let go of Ella and sat beside her.

He had tried to be warm, helping her wash her face and brush her teeth too. Why was Ella still untouchable?

Ella talked about bad things in front of his son instead!

Ella could clearly sense that the man beside her was disappointed. She could only take a bite of her sandwich in silence and hurry outside without finishing her breakfast. She took her bag which was in the living room and went straight to the studio.

Christian looked at Ella’s disappearing back with a faint smile on his face. With Ella, the once lonely house felt more alive.

The woman brought a new color in his life.

…

Before Ella entered the studio, she heard a voice from inside.

“I can make you famous, as long as you help me.”

Ella thought she recognized the voice. After thinking for a while and trying to remember the voice, she finally recognized who the voice belonged to.

It was Hartono’s voice.

Hartono, dressed neatly as usual, was sitting opposite Luca.

Even after retreating from the business world, he still exuded an aura that made everyone bow down and fear him.

Luca just smiled as he faced the man in front of him. “Your favor is too great for me. I’m afraid I can’t help you.”

“Think of it as a gift from me. I think you’re the only one who can help me.” Hartono immediately placed a check on the table and continued, “If you are not satisfied with the amount, I can add it.”

Hartono already had a new plan at this time.

Christian was so stubborn and it’s hard to change his mind. No matter what he said, Hartono wouldn’t be able to get rid of Ella just by talking to Christian.

Ella was even more difficult for him.

The woman would never be satisfied. She would never leave his grandson with a small amount. Hartono believed that a woman like Ella would be a parasite in his family, taking everything until nothing was left.

Unfortunately, this young man before him was also difficult to deal with.

“I do need money. But I’m not interested in your offer.” Luca pushed back the check. “If you have them, it’s best to donate it to an orphanage.”

“Young man. You really don’t know anything.” Hartono’s gaze on Luca’s face became sinister.

He thought this problem could be solved easily. But who would have thought that all his plans did not work.

“Did you come here to look for me?” Ella walked into the studio gracefully. A faint smile appeared on her face.

When Hartono saw Ella’s face, the anger in his heart immediately peaked.

This woman before him had changed his proud grandson. Even Christian had announced their relationship to everyone!

Ella walked over to Hartono with a smile on her face.

“Let me guess. You must be very angry right now that your check couldn’t help you get what you wanted.”
