224 A Woman Like You
“Grandpa and I are just curious, what attracted you to that woman?”
“Do I need to explain it to you?” Christian snorted coldly. His gaze shifted to Nadia. “And you, stop using my grandfather’s name all the time. No one has been able to tell me how to live my life.”
Nadia is still smiling, not minding Christian’s cold reply.
She looked immune as she stared back at Christian. “Tian, ??what are you talking about? I have no intention of taking advantage of grandpa. We’re close friends. Childhood friendships can’t be erased easily, can they?” Nadia continued, not caring what Christian said.
“Childhood friendship?” Christian sneered. “When we were kids, we didn’t even see each other for more than a week. Can such a relationship be considered a childhood friendship?”
Unfortunately, that answer could not make Nadia give up. In fact, the effect is the opposite of what Christian imagined.
“Tian, ??so you remember how long we spent together when we were kids? I am very happy.” Nadia doesn’t seem to care about Christian’s sarcasm. She feels much happier that Christian remembers her.
She doesn’t care even though Christian doesn’t like her now. But she believes she can drive Christian crazy about her.
Wouldn’t it be even more challenging to conquer a man like Christian?
.....
Taking men easily wasn’t her style. She isn’t attracted to rich men who like her because of her looks or her family’s wealth.
A man like Christian looks much more attractive to Nadia.
When Hartono heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. A smile slowly appeared on his face. “Christian, you have nothing to be ashamed of. It turns out that you also remember Nadia. How about you guys try to date? I will help you.”
Nadia doesn’t say anything, she just looks at Christian’s cold face with a smile on her lips. This time, returning to Indonesia made her very excited.
She has a challenge she must overcome and she wants to do whatever it takes to win this fight.
“Grandfather, you are good at joking huh. What you said just now was very funny,” said Nadia, laughing as if she was embarrassed by Hartono’s teasing.
Unfortunately, in Christian’s eyes, it all looks like a sham. It’s like a family play.
Christian just stares at the two of them in silence and then turns to leave. He’d better go home. He wanted to see Ella now.
“Stop him!” Hartono shouted, stomping his wand. Nadia who was beside him immediately took his arm. “Grandfather, don’t be too emotional. This is the first time I’ve ever met Christian again. Just let him go home and think about it.”
Just a few sentences from Nadia could make Hartono feel better. “I’m going to help Christian to see if that woman really has bad intentions or not. If she really isn’t a good woman, I’ll tell you. How about it?”
Hartono thought carefully and felt that it was the best decision. “Then, Nadia. You have to help Christian. Don’t let him be toyed with by that woman.”
Nadia nodded quickly. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’d better go home now.”
Hartono looked at her with a happy look. He nodded with relief, thinking that there was a suitable female figure for his grandson. Now he just needs to give it a little push and everything will go according to plan!
...
Meanwhile, Christian rushes to drive his car home quickly. His car stopped right in front of his door with a loud screeching sound.
The butler rushes out of the house and notices that the expression on Christian’s face looks a little grim.
He immediately felt anxious. “Master, you are back.”
Christian just nods his head briefly in response and tugs the tie around his neck in annoyance.
He’s not a rebellious kid. Whatever his grandfather asked, he would try to comply. But sadly, he couldn’t do it this time.
He didn’t want to end his relationship with Ella.
How could he do it?
Even though Ella was nothing more than his toy, he wasn’t bored with her yet.
When he entered the house, Nathan and Ella were on the sofa, learning how to peel an apple with a knife.
“Old woman, you are such a fool!” Nathan laughed without hesitation as he mocked Ella. He looked at the apple that Ella was holding with a look full of interest.
Ella also looked at the shapeless apple in her hand. She felt very ashamed because she was belittled by this 5 year old fat boy.
A large hand suddenly grabbed the fruit in her hand. As soon as the fruit disappeared from her hand, Ella immediately looked up, seeing a man who was eating the fruit gracefully. “Not bad,” Christian said.
Ella could only look at him without saying anything.
Of course not bad. That fruit is of the best quality. It must also taste very good, no matter the shape.
However, what made matters worse was, the fruit she was supposed to eat had disappeared from her hand and now she had to peel another one again.
Suddenly, a new, peeled apple appeared in her hand. It was Nathan’s fat hand that gave it to Ella.
“Nathan?” Ella looked at him in disbelief. Then she heard the boy say, “Old woman, I’ve been good to you, right? When are you going to marry this good boy?”
In an instant, the fruit almost slipped from her hand!
Why did this fruit suddenly feel heavy!
“I can feel you, but they are too much for me to accept. Just give this fruit to your father,” Ella says as she passes the fruit in her hand to Christian.
Christian accepted it obediently. Ella did not expect that Christian would not say anything.
In fact, there was a look of affection in Christian’s eyes as he looked at Ella, making the woman’s heart fill with fireworks.
Nathan’s voice made Ella come back to her senses.
“Dad, what did grandpa tell you today?”
“Not important,” Christian replied briefly. After that, he immediately turned around and went upstairs.
Ella looked at Christian’s back and felt a strange feeling touch her heart.
What surprised her even more was that when she didn’t return to the master bedroom that night, Christian didn’t look for her.
Without Christian, Ella felt uncomfortable and she couldn’t sleep. She couldn’t feel the warmth of Christian’s body beside her while she was sleeping.
Ella woke up at exactly six in the morning. She frowned as she looked at the time on her phone and wanted to go back to sleep.
A few moments later, she woke up again to the sound of the phone in her ear.
“Hello?” Ella answered the call in a semi-conscious state. Then, a soft voice rang out from the other side.
It was a woman’s voice.
“Is this really Isabella? Are you still not awake at this hour? I wonder how a woman like you could attract Tian’s attention.”
