Chapter 281
281 Shared the Fate
Nathan told Ella how he escaped from the house without the butler and Christian knowing. Ella immediately gave Nathan two thumbs up for being so smart.
This kid, when he grows up, is sure to be just as smart as Christian. His intelligence would be a disaster for others!
At the thought of this, Ella felt both proud and lonely. She would not be a part of Nathan’s future. One day, Nathan would grow up and forget about her.
Seeing Nathan’s tiny face, she thought of Christian again.
Every day Ella reads news about Christian and Nadia from the newspaper.
The media reported that the relationship between Christian and Nadia was getting closer and closer. The woman Christian was once with had been completely forgotten. Maybe it’s because the relationship between them was so unclear that she was easily forgotten, unlike Nadia who had an official relationship with Christian.
But there was no point in thinking about it anymore. Her relationship with Christian is over.
Nathan is feeling very happy today. He looked around him excitedly. But when he lifted his head and looked at Ella, he realized that Ella wasn’t in a good mood. “Old woman, what’s wrong with you?”
Ella woke up from her daydream. She looked back at Nathan, shaking her head. “I’m just thinking about my past.”
.....
“Past?” Nathan’s eyes shone brightly. “I think we are very similar. We have the same fate.”
Ella tilted her head as she looked at Nathan, not understanding what Nathan was talking about.
Nathan’s hand gripped Ella’s hand tighter and then said seriously, “You and I don’t have mothers. After you lost your mother, your father married another woman. After having children besides you, he starts to forget about you.”
What Nathan said was a fact. In Nathan’s eyes, that was Ella’s life.
Ella is feeling sad. It was true what Nathan said about her miserable life. Even Ella didn’t have anyone she could call family.
Then Nathan continued, “Even though my father is not married now, one day he will definitely get married. When he gets married, I will have a new sibling. After that, maybe dad will forget about me. He will surely love his new child more.”
After saying that, Nathan realized how sad he was.
According to him, if his father married later, he would definitely have a very hard life. Just like Ella’s life, which was full of suffering.
Even though Ella was hiding many things from him, Nathan was no fool. He could see with his own eyes how Ella’s relationship with her family was. From that relationship, Nathan could also guess what the situation was at Ella’s house.
Ella showed him his future when he got a new mother later.
That’s why Nathan became increasingly reluctant to have a stepmother. If his father married, he would definitely suffer.
After listening to Nathan’s words, Ella crouched down in front of Nathan so she could look him eye to eye.
“No. They will treat you very well because you are a good boy.”
Ella raised her hand, stroking Nathan’s head tenderly.
This arrogant fat kid was indeed very difficult to approach at first. But once Ella could win his heart, Nathan became the warmest boy ever. Even with his tiny body, he tried hard to protect Ella and help her.
Nathan looked at Ella suspiciously, “Were you not good as a child so no one liked you?”
Nathan felt that Ella was the kindest woman he had ever met. Ella is not only kind, but also beautiful. How could anyone hate her in this world?
Ella shook her head. “I wasn’t not good at all. When I was little, I was always rude to other people. That’s why everyone hated me. So, Nathan, you have to be polite to everyone.”
Ella said it seriously while stroking Nathan’s head. “Also, your father loves you very much. He spent 5 years alone with you.”
In the past, Budi also felt depressed after losing Ella’s mother. But all this only lasted a few days. After that, Budi started looking for fun out there and then met Merry.
At that time, Ella was still very small. Ella had absolutely no idea what had happened to her father. She could tell all this from the gossiping servants in her house.
But when she heard the gossip, Ella didn’t care at all.
She got a new mother who was nice to her and a sweet little sister. Why did she remember her sad past?
Ella didn’t understand at all. But now, she finally understood everything.
Everything that happened at that time was Merry’s doing. Everything that happened at that time was part of Merry’s extraordinary plan.
Nathan heard Ella’s words and nodded obediently. “Next time I’ll be polite.”
He took Ella’s hand again and walked with her. After a few steps, he stopped walking and lowered his head. “Old woman. You know, no one likes me but you.”
Nathan was still very young, but his experiences with these evil women made him mature earlier.
Ella was surprised to hear that. She felt her eyes heat up from feeling Nathan’s sadness.
It turns out that this 5-year-old child knows everything.
However, what the boy didn’t realize was that everyone in Christian’s house really loved Nathan. Christian really loves Nathan even though he has a little trouble showing it sometimes.
“What nonsense is that?” Ella pinched Nathan’s cheek. “How could no one love you? Just look at your father and the butler at home, they love you so much.”
“Is that true?” Nathan asked hopefully. Seeing Ella nodded confidently, Nathan could only feel relieved.
He tried to suppress his smile from getting wider and said, “Old woman, I like you very much too.”
Nathan said as he gripped Ella’s hand tighter.
Suddenly, he thought of Nadia and said annoyedly, “Old woman, do you know? There’s an ugly woman who annoys my dad every day.”
Ella knew that the only woman Christian was close to right now was Nadia. So, most likely, the woman Nathan was talking about was Nadia.
She had intended to ignore this topic at the start. But she couldn’t contain her curiosity. “Are they very close?”
“Yes.” Nathan looked a little disappointed and continued, “Father always accompanied her to eat every day. His time to accompany me is getting less and less. I’ve always stayed at home alone every day. So boring!”
