229 Showing off Love
“Miss Nadia came to see Mr. Christian today, she looks very beautiful. I think she is very suitable for him.”
“I feel the same way too. She is very graceful and humble as well, much better than the woman Mr. Christian keeps by his side now.”
Inwardly, Ella couldn’t help but wonder. Why did all the employees at Christian’s company love to gossip and compare people?
Plus, what did they mean by Nadia being much better than her?
Better or not, only Christian could decide it, not them. Why should they interfere?
But Ella thought about it calmly. She didn’t even feel anger in her heart. She didn’t feel offended either.
She just found it strange why they liked to badmouth other people behind their backs, but didn’t dare to face them directly.
After comparing her and Nadia for a moment, the two employees changed the subject. However, the topic was also not far from Nadia. The topic of their conversation evolved into the history of Nadia Soetanto’s glory.
Nadia had lived abroad for several years. She not only came from a rich family, she also had an extraordinary ability to expand her family’s business in the jewelry field. With two master’s degrees that she had, she was also fluent in several languages, which earned her the praise of many people.
.....
Coupled with her extraordinary appearance, you could say she was a dream for most men.
In short, there was only one word that could describe Nadia- Perfect.
Ella listened in silence while folding her arms across her chest. She leaned her back against the wall listening.
It’s true, Nadia is the perfect match for Christian. They are both loved by many. Therefore if they are together, they will complement each other.
“It seems that Miss Nadia is indeed extraordinary, huh!” One of the secretaries said with a look of admiration. “Actually, what I’m curious about is, why does Mr. Christian like a woman like Miss Ella. Doesn’t she just rely on her face and appearance?”
Ella showed a disapproving look at such a sentence. So what if she has an attractive face and appearance? The most important thing was she could satisfy Christian and made him happy.
Can they be compared to her?
“Ella,” a soft voice sounded in her ear, startling Ella. When she turned her head, Ella found Nadia looking at her with a smile.
When Nadia called her, her attention was distracted so she couldn’t hear the conversation of the two people in the pantry.
“What are you doing here?” Nadia asked.
Ella returned Nadia’s smile as she said, “Some people are talking bad things about me. I’m just listening.” She pointed to the two people in the pantry and continued, “You can listen along. It seems that the two of them are your loyal fans.”
“Oh?” Nadia looked closely at Ella’s face. The woman in front of her is so beautiful and charming. But her attitude when she was with Christian and when she wasn’t with him was different.
Ella didn’t seem to care even though the two employees were talking bad things about her. She didn’t even feel angry or offended.
It was as if Ella had gone numb.
After experiencing it repeatedly, Ella seemed to lose her feelings when faced with things like this.
However, what made Nadia curious was, why would Ella deliberately say that in front of her? That the people inside were mocking her and praising Nadia?
What is her real purpose? Is this her way to win Christian’s heart?
Nadia saw two people still talking in the pantry. She raised her hand and knocked on the door. “It’s not good to talk about personal matters during work hours.”
Even though she was rebuking them, her face still showed a calm smile.
As the daughter of a wealthy family, she not only has a graceful and elegant aura, but is also friendly and kind, both to those above and below her.
Ella looked at Nadia who was wearing 10 cm high heels. She felt that the woman in front of her had a character like Merry, her stepmother.
She’s very good at pretending.
Merry always acts like a graceful and elegant woman in front of everyone. But when she is not in public, she will show her true color.
It’s the same with Nadia. She is someone who won’t hesitate to stab you with a knife and then laugh out loud in your presence.
Both are terrible.
The two women in the pantry immediately shouted with joy when they saw Nadia as if they had met their idol.
It was different when they saw Ella’s face. They immediately lost their spirits.
“Miss Ella, are you here?”
“Yes. Too bad I listened to everything you guys said.” Ella just glanced at them. She went straight to the fridge and grabbed a juice.
Holding the glass, she looked at the two women with an awkward expression. “Are you guys out of work?”
“No. We just...”
“Ella, they didn’t mean it. Can you forgive them this time?” Nadia looked at the two of them worriedly and sincerely apologized to Ella.
Ella put her glass back down. “Don’t be too serious. I really don’t care what they say. I’m just asking. If this kind of work turns out to be less busy, maybe I should find a similar job and give it a try.”
A smile spread across Ella’s face as she looked at Nadia. “What you said just now seemed to make me angry for what they said earlier.”
Nadia’s eyes narrowed and her gaze became sharp. She didn’t expect Ella to say that.
Seeing the two employees’ faces becoming increasingly gloomy, Nadia said, “I didn’t think you would want to find a job. After all, this kind of work also requires a fairly high level of education.”
A high school graduate who just got out of a mental hospital wants to work as an employee in a company as big as Christian’s? Isn’t she afraid of being laughed at by others?
“Nadia, I know you are a very intelligent person. Why don’t you understand?” Ella stepped forward and approached Nadia. “As long as I want it, do you think it’s difficult for me to get it?”
That statement made Nadia’s face stiff.
This woman was clearly showing off in front of her, showing Christian’s love for her. Ella is showing off that she can get anything she wants because Christian will give it to her.
But Nadia couldn’t argue because it was the truth.
