Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

Chapter 291

291 Willing to Be Your Husband

Ella was looking at the photos on her cell phone. Yesterday, when she met Nathan, she took lots of photos of the two of them together. She was observing them one by one when a news notification suddenly appeared on her cell phone.

The headline made her hands stop moving.

‘Christian Adipamungkas and Nadia Soetanto announce their engagement!’

Ella still couldn’t react because of the news and another news notification appeared, showing that the topic made it into hot news.

‘Good news from Christian Adipamungkas and Nadia Soetanto! Two Families Will Soon Be United!’

Ella touched the second notification and read the contents of the news. There are so many positive comments about Christian and Nadia.

They all say that Christian and Nadia are a perfect match, a couple destined to be together.

Many people also said that they had expected that this good news would soon appear. There are also those who pray that Christian and Nadia’s relationship will run smoothly until the wedding day.

Meanwhile, Luca saw that Ella had not moved for quite a while. He saw Ella sitting there as if frozen so he asked, “Ella, what’s wrong?”

.....

Luca could see Ella’s face, which looked tense as she gritted her teeth tightly. Luca thought that Ella was looking at the news about her family. Whenever Ella found out news about her family, her face would look serious.

Ella snorted coldly and decided to turn off her phone. “It’s nothing. Just unimportant gossip.”

She smiled at Luca as if to reassure Luca that she was fine. In fact, she was just trying to cheer herself up.

Then, Ella took the brush in front of her and resumed her painting. But sadly, she couldn’t calm down. Her mind was filled with news about Christian and Nadia.

Ella’s hand gripped the brush tightly, but she couldn’t paint. He couldn’t run his brush on the half-finished canvas in front of her, as if she had lost her will to continue her work. Her eyes seemed to radiate a loneliness that she herself was not aware of.

Luca could sense Ella’s mood and said, “Don’t paint if you don’t want to paint. You’d better frame the new ones that come in.”

“Brother, I...” Ella found it difficult to speak.

Luca nodded and understood. “I know. It’s about your love life, right?” At first, Luca was just guessing. But when he saw the expression on Ella’s face, he became even more convinced.

“Don’t be sad. When you love someone, there are always ups and downs too. Otherwise, how could it be called love?”

Luca felt that what he said was very classic. He himself had felt the same way before.

He had experienced a difficult time in his love journey, where he had to fight together with his wife in order to get a better life. He had also experienced a period where he got the greatest happiness in his life- their baby.

He also experienced the greatest loss when he had to lose his wife and unborn baby. But at the same time, they were the ones who had helped his life to be better.

All those trips taught Luca a lot of lessons, especially about the ups and downs of life.

Ella chuckled, “Are all painters as sentimental as you?” Her gaze was fixed on Luca. Even though she was smiling, Luca could see the loneliness in her eyes.

“Hmm... Seems like most are the same as me. How about you?” Luca’s question made the smile on Ella’s face freeze.

“Brother, don’t tease me. If you have free time, you better paint,” Ella answered automatically like a robot. She pushed her chair and got up.

Luca was curious. Finally, he opened his cell phone and read the news that was circulating. When he saw Christian’s name, he felt a little surprised.

He didn’t think that Ella’s feelings for Christian were this deep. Ella really had given her heart to the man.

Ella came out of the drawing room and decided to frame the paintings that had just arrived. She had just installed one painting when suddenly her cell phone rang.

Ella picked it up and heard Nathan’s loud cry. Nathan cried very loudly like a howling wolf.

“Old woman, have you seen the news?”

Nathan cried again. “Why does father want to marry that woman? Will that woman be my mother? That evil woman rebuked me in front of everyone yesterday!”

Nathan sobbed, his voice sounded very sad. “Old woman, come back and help persuade my father. Even though he got angry and punished you sometimes, he still listened to your words.”

Ella just held her phone in silence, not responding to Nathan’s words.

What should she say? Does she still have the right to ask Christian not to marry that woman? Even when she was still in touch with Christian, she had absolutely no rights, let alone now.

“Old woman, are you listening to me?” Nathan asked while still sobbing, confused that he had not heard Ella’s voice.

In the end, Ella just said, “You have to trust your father’s decision.”

Ella knew very well that Christian loved his son very much. If Christian wanted to marry that woman, then Christian must have his own reason.

But Ella didn’t want to find out what the reason was.

After Ella said that, Nathan kept nagging in her ear, still crying. But sadly, Ella couldn’t hear him anymore.

Her head was buzzing. Her heart felt uncomfortable.

Was this really the answer to her hope that she’d kept in her heart? Was this the result of giving her heart to someone else?

By the time she came out of her thoughts, the call between her and Nathan was over. Nathan had hung up on her.

As soon as she was about to put down her phone, suddenly Liam entered the studio. He saw Ella and immediately approached her and sat across from her.

“I have no work tomorrow. How about we go somewhere?” Liam did not discuss the news that was currently circulating. Once inside, he immediately asked Ella to go with him.

Liam had this planned.

Since childhood, Ella really liked traveling. Liam believed that even now, Ella still had that desire, even though she didn’t have much freedom.

Being in the studio all day must be very boring.

Ella looked at Liam with a dreamy look.

“I...”

Seeing the doubt on Ella’s face, Liam took a deep breath but kept a smile on his face. “I thought that after we went out together yesterday, you wouldn’t be this defensive to me.”

“I didn’t mean it like that,” Ella explained with a helpless look. “Liam, you shouldn’t be wasting your time waiting for me. You also have to fall in love with someone else, with another woman.”
