250 Baby’s Breath
Nadia pursed her lips and said pitifully. “I’m just worried about her. The media has been constantly attacking her lately. And grandpa... you know grandpa won’t just let her get away.”
Nadia tried to appear sincere.
Since Christian cared for that woman, she had to look like she cared for her too in order to win his heart.
Christian’s gaze swept across Nadia, making her gasp. Nadia said again, “I didn’t mean anything, Tian. I only think of you as a friend. At your grandfather’s house at that time, I was just joking. You didn’t take it seriously, did you?”
After saying that, Nadia’s face blushed a little. “You are not the type of man I want. I also know that a man like you would not be a match for me. So, I only think of you as a friend and nothing more. I came back this time just to work with you. That’s all.”
Even after saying that long sentence, Nadia only got a quick response from Christian. Meanwhile, Nathan snorted, feeling that the woman before him was unbelievable.
He grabbed his father’s arm to get his attention and heard Christian say, “Tell grandpa that you will never marry me.”
“Tian, ??are you suspicious of me?” Nadia put on an expression as if Christian’s words just now hurt her. “How about I say we are co-workers?”
Silently, Nadia clenched her fists tightly.
.....
She remembered that since childhood, Christian always had a sharp sense. Even though he was young, Christian was always firm in doing everything. And now, Christian has turned very cruel.
Christian really didn’t give her a way out.
“It’s up to you if you don’t want to do what I want,” Christian said casually. He stood up and carried Nathan. “I still have other things to do.”
When Christian walked past tNadia and saw that the woman had no intention of leaving, he deliberately said ” Aren’t you going to go out? If any company secret is leaked, everyone will suspect you.”
Of course Christian wasn’t that stupid to believe everything Nadia said without suspecting her.
They were both experienced in the business world, which was full of competition and cunning.
Nadia’s face twitched slightly, as if she was trying to restrain herself from showing her feelings. She smiled and said, “I’m also going home. Tian, ??we’re friends. Whatever you want, I will help you. I’ll tell grandpa.”
Nadia felt very reluctant, but she couldn’t do anything.
If she wanted to get Christian, she had to be patient. She must be a hunter who was full of patience, waiting for her prey to be caught off guard.
Christian’s attitude towards her is still indifferent. Apparently, her decision did not affect Christian’s mood in the slightest.
Nathan stuck out his tongue at Nadia. After that, he smiled and hugged his father happily.
He knew that his father and Ella would make up soon. That way, Ella will not leave their house.
Christian drives his car fast, wanting to go home soon. On the way, he remembered that Liam and Haikal had given Ella flowers, something that he had never done before.
While passing by a flower shop, Christian accidentally stopped and bought a bouquet of baby’s breath flowers.
Christian didn’t like roses. The flower didn’t match his style. He prefered baby’s breath. The flower was tiny, like the stars in the vast sky, and they reminded him of Ella.
After coming home from Christian’s company, Nathan was in a very good mood. Along the way, he hummed again what he heard from the TV.
Even though his voice sounded fake, he still hummed happily.
Unfortunately, as soon as they arrived at the front door of the house, their faces immediately became unsightly.
Her hair that looked a little wavy was let loose. She looked so charming in a nude dress.
Ella stood in front of the iron gate. In front of her, there was Haikal who was holding a bouquet of roses.
Haikal’s face looked a little red, he didn’t know if it was because he was embarrassed or because the sun outside was so scorching.
Christian looked at the baby’s breath he bought and put it in the back seat. He suddenly felt that he had made the wrong decision by choosing this flower.
Compared to the roses Haikal brought, these flowers he bought looked cheap.
The sight before him made him even more angry.
Doesn’t Ella love him and want to be with him? Why is she still in touch with Haikal?
These days, Ella is always in her room and doesn’t want to come out. She said her body was weak and she felt sick. But when Haikal came, she no longer felt sick.
Christian could feel his heart getting torn in half, gaping and bleeding.
Nathan was also stunned. If he had known this would happen, he would not have gone to his father’s place.
Now, how should he explain this?
Nathan himself was very sure that the old woman had nothing to do with Haikal. He knew that Ella cared more about another man named Liam. Meanwhile, Ella didn’t care about Haikal at all.
Haikal came and disturbed Ella.
“Father, quickly save the old woman. Look at her uncomfortable expression.” Nathan grabbed his father’s arm and urged him. A long time passed but he did not get an answer from his father. He turned his head and saw his father’s gloomy face, which frightened him.
“Father, are you alright?”
Nathan thought his father misunderstood Ella again so he quickly explained, “Father, you must believe in the old woman. She said she liked me the most. She doesn’t like other men!”
Ella had no idea that Christian would be back in broad daylight like this. Now her attention was on the man in front of her.
“Didn’t Liam warn you that day?” When the three of them met, Liam protected Ella from Haikal and said that Haikal had no right to approach Ella. “Our relationship is over. Even if you divorce Indri, it has nothing to do with me.”
She doesn’t love Haikal anymore. She had already given her heart to Haikal once and Haikal had broken it.
Ella wasn’t a fool who would fall into the same hole.
If Haikal wants to help her to get back the house left by her mother, Ella can forgive what Haikal did in the past. But that’s all.
She will never love Haikal again.
Ella only uses him to get something she wants, and at the same time wants to make Haikal realize that she is not the same girl he used to love.
Ella is taking good care of her heart now.
Just as Haikal was about to speak, a child’s voice stopped him.
“Old woman, father has come!”
