283 Christian Hears Ella’s Voice
After taking some food until the plate was full, Nathan returned to his seat. He wanted to enjoy his meal, but suddenly his cell phone rang.
His father called again.
Nathan picked up the call. Before he could speak, Ella had already said, “Fat boy, what else do you want to eat?”
On the other hand, Christian’s hand immediately squeezed his phone tightly.
He didn’t hear wrong, did he? It was Ella’s voice.
Was Ella with his son now?
Nathan was surprised. He remembered Ella’s request that Christian shouldn’t know of their whereabouts. He swallowed frantically and shook his head at Ella.
Ella immediately understood it. She thought for a moment and decided to leave her chair.
“Who are you with now?
.....
Before Nathan could explain, Christian had asked first.
At first, he just wanted to ask where his son was. Christian was not angry even though his son had been sulking earlier. He could understand what made Nathan not want to have a new mother so that his son was always sensitive to the women who were close to him.
Plus, Christian knew why his son hated Nadia. Indeed, Nadia’s nature wasn’t good to begin with.
For example, when they had dinner together, Nadia always asked the taste of every food. Couldn’t she have tried it herself? Why should she ask?
After all, when he ate, Christian didn’t like to talk too much.
Nadia was not like Ella. Ella didn’t ask much. She liked to enjoy her food in silence.
When he thought about her again, the expression on Christian’s face changed. “Who are you with now?” Christian asked again when Nathan didn’t answer.
Seeing Christian on the phone, Nadia was obediently silent. Silently, she listened to the conversation while wondering who was on the phone with Christian.
Nathan felt confused for a long time, unable to answer the question. In the end, he said, “I am alone. Did you hear wrong?”
“Do you think I’m stupid?” Christian is annoyed and immediately ends the call. After that, he called Jason. Christian asks Jason to locate Nathan’s whereabouts from their call just now.
Hearing Christian’s order, Jason did it very quickly and sent Christian’s current location of Nathan’s cell phone.
Seeing his son’s position, Christian immediately got up and left, not even bothering to explain to Nadia.
Subconsciously, his hands trembled slightly.
Nathan was in the same mall as him. That means, that woman is also here.
Ella was in the same place as him.
He was sure that the voice just now was Ella’s voice.
Christian didn’t have many female friends. He rarely dated. Plus, his relationship with Ella lasted quite a while. How could Christian have misheard Ella’s voice?
For some reason, Nathan had a feeling that his father was coming. He looked around and realized that Ella had been missing ever since he signaled that his father had called him.
He felt a little panicked and immediately contacted Ella.
Ella’s voice was low from the other side, like a whisper. “Nathan, you take care of your father first. I will hide.”
Ella knew Christian’s character very well. If he knew his son was at the mall alone, the man would definitely come over to him.
What’s more, they are currently in the same mall.
After that, Ella said again, “Don’t forget to delete our last call. Don’t let your father know where I am.”
“All right. Go hide now.” Nathan immediately ended the call and deleted the last call history from his cell phone. After that, he enjoyed the food in front of him. He called a waitress and asked to help cut the meat.
The waitress immediately approached Nathan who was sitting alone. Seeing the sweet boy, of course the waitress was happy to help him.
Nathan was very happy with this restaurant. It had lots of good food and friendly staff. If he could eat with Ella, it would be a lot more fun.
But as he expected, his father had already walked up to him.
Nathan didn’t expect his father to arrive so soon so he looked a little surprised. “Father?”
How could his father come to this place so quickly? This place is not very close to his father’s company.
Nathan didn’t know whether Ella had found a place to hide or not.
Christian’s arrival caused a commotion at the scene. The waitress who helped Nathan almost screamed when she saw Christian’s incredibly handsome face. She could only be amazed in her heart. This father and son are very similar. They are both handsome!
Christian glanced at the waitress in front of him briefly and then turned his gaze to Nathan who looked a little panicked. “You’d better explain it to me now.”
For the sake of his damn promise, he couldn’t find Ella.
He felt sad when he thought that Ella would have had a better life without him.
The more he thought about it, the more restless his heart became. He was afraid he couldn’t find Ella forever and someone else would take her, Liam for example.
At the thought of Ella choosing Liam over him, Christian felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He really regretted it half to death. Why did he have to say that stupid promise to Ella!
He felt like a madman now. Then what about Ella?
Is that woman with Liam now?
Seeing his father’s increasingly sinister face, Nathan felt nervous. But he decided to protect Ella. He would never betray Ella.
Nathan looked at his father obediently and said, “Father, what do you mean? What to explain? I am alone here.”
Nathan wiggled his legs, looking very sweet and innocent.
Christian frowned and looked at the waitress in front of him. “Was anyone sitting here just now?”
“There’s no one here,” the waitress replied, blushing.
The man before her was too perfect. He was very handsome and from his clothes, he looked very rich. But this man already had a child. He must be married.
The waitress sighed in disappointment, but still reminded Christian kindly. “Is this your son? He came here alone. It’s dangerous for such a small child to eat alone. Please accompany him.”
Hearing her words, Nathan didn’t think it was a good idea. He shook his head quickly and immediately said, “Dad, I know you’re busy at work. I can go back to the company first. There’s a driver waiting for me downstairs. I’ll be home after eating here for three hours.”
He couldn’t let his father wait for him here. If his father was here, Ella wouldn’t be able to get out of her hiding place.
This was his chance to date Ella. How could he let his date fall apart!
