184 You or Him
“If she comes back one day, you will throw me out again. Instead of standing next to you with nothing to gain and destroying your reputation, I’d better go now.”
Before she gave her heart to Christian... Before she fell in love with him... Before it’s too late, she better go now...
“Go.”
Christian said that one word as he sat on a bar stool. The hatred that radiated from his body slightly lessened as if he really wanted to let Ella go.
He raised his wine glass and turned it slowly like a king ruling the world, looking at Ella.
His eyes swept around and landed on Liam. “You or him. Only one of them can go. Your choice.” He said it while looking closely at Ella’s face. Christian could see the change in Ella’s face.
The woman’s face immediately turned pale.
That expression made Christian sure that Ella would not leave his side.
There was a bit of joy in knowing that Ella wouldn’t walk away from him, but he also felt angry. This means that Ella cares about Liam so she is willing to sacrifice herself for him.
.....
Meanwhile, Liam was overjoyed when he heard it. “There’s no need to worry about me. This is a good opportunity.”
There are so many people there. Christian will not break his promise. This is Ella’s chance to get away from Christian!
Ella looked at Liam’s excited face with a sad look. This man only cares about his own feelings.
To Liam, Ella is number one, no matter what happens to the man.
However, unlike Liam, his assistant was looking at Ella with disdain as if this was all her fault.
“Let him go,” Ella didn’t hesitate at all.
If she had to choose between herself and Liam, she would choose to save Liam without the slightest doubt.
“Ella, are you stupid?” Just as Liam was about to step forward, his assistant had asked the barman to restrain him. “Sir, we will return first. Thank you.” The assistant said politely, gesturing to the barkeeper to get Liam out of there.
“Ella!”
His scream faded away, replaced by the sound of the song getting louder and louder.
Christian rose to his feet in a happy mood. Finally, one bully had left.
He hugged Ella’s waist and said in a threatening voice, “I forgot to tell you. If you choose to stay, you can’t run away anymore. Otherwise, you will pay for it. And the payoff will be very painful.”
“I thought you sent him away because you forgave him,” Ella said in a low voice. Christian’s hands are around her waist, as if they are chains that bind her tightly.
She had already chosen to return and she had no chance to escape.
She could guess what Christian would do to her if she left again and it must have something to do with Liam.
Because Christian knew that Ella’s only weakness right now was Liam.
“I won’t forgive him,” Christian said, leading her out of there.
This incident took everyone by surprise. They looked at this commotion with looks of disbelief, but no one dared to gossip or say anything.
Outside the bar, Ella could feel the fresh air.
Christian immediately pushed her into the car and asked the driver to leave immediately.
Ella could only stare out the window in silence.
Throughout the journey, neither of them spoke. When they got home, it was already midnight.
Ella did not return to the main house, but to the house where she had been staying for the past few days. Just as she was about to lie down and rest, Christian opened the door to her room.
The hot air in the room made Christian frown.
So this woman had been living in a place like this all along.
“Why are you here? It’s late.”
Due to recent tension, their relationship seemed to be back to square one. Ella always tried to protect herself in front of Christian.
No more trust.
“You said you wanted to be my mistress. Of course I have to grant it, right?” That cynical sentence made Ella immediately back off.
What would he do to her now?
Without waiting for Ella to think, Christian was already approaching her and taking off his shirt. It was a difficult night for Ella because Christian didn’t forgive her at all.
Ella woke up the next day when it was already noon.
Her body felt really uncomfortable and sore.
But the sticky feeling made her get up to take a shower. Before she could dry her hair, a maid knocked on her door.
“Miss, this is medicine from the Master.”
The servant gave it and left the place respectfully.
Ella just raised her eyebrows and looked at the medicine that was on the table. Of the several drugs out there, the drug that caught her attention the most was the contraceptive pill.
She sighed again. At least as a mistress, she didn’t have to bother buying contraceptive pills by herself.
However, Christian still didn’t forgive her.
She was trapped in this little house again, forgotten by Christian, left alone.
Ella didn’t have much time to think about Christian. Now the most important thing for her was to earn as much money as possible.
Her current savings was still not enough to buy her mother’s house back.
What if she borrowed money? Didn’t Nathan save a lot of money?
Ella was sure the fat kid would be willing to lend it to her.
After the idea popped up, Ella got up and went to the main house.
However, as soon as she arrived at the main house, she was surprised to see Laras’ figure. She looked very beautiful, with neat clothes and heels as high as 10 centimeters.
Her face looked very proud, even when she had been kicked from her position as chief secretary not so long ago.
From the pride and confidence that flashed on Laras’ face, Ella knew that the woman had regained her position.
She didn’t know what was going on and she didn’t care.
She didn’t care about anything anymore.
“Didn’t you say you were very doted on? Why don’t you stay in the main house?” Laras said sarcastically when she saw Ella.
“Where I live is my business. Would you like Christian to arrange a room for you in this house and experience what it’s like to be a member of the family?” Ella replied. Then, she deliberately patted her head. “Oh, I forgot. Christian wouldn’t want to.”
Laras trembled with anger as she heard it. “Ella, let me tell you. Mr Christian has reinstated me as his secretary in the secretariat department!”
