302 Nathan Is Sick
The longer it went on, the more people gathered there.
Ella continued to play with the children, unaffected by the arrival of these people. She continued to pile up the sand and build the castle of her dreams.
When Ella was busy with her work, suddenly a shadow fell right in front of her. She lifted her head to look at the person in front of her, but it made her throat choke.
Being able to see the man in front of her was like a dream.
Before Ella could speak, someone on the other side asked, “Miss, may I have your cell phone number?”
This was probably the first time the man had asked for the cell phone number of a woman he didn’t know, in a public place. Hence, the man’s ears became extremely red. But he kept up the courage because he was really attracted to Ella.
Christian’s gaze swept over him coldly. Did this man want to seduce Ella?
Christian ignored Ella’s gritty hands. He immediately grabbed her hand and hugged her to her body and said, “She is my woman.”
Some people who are looking for opportunities to approach Ella can only groan in annoyance because it turns out that the woman they are after already has a partner. Gradually, the people gathered there began to disappear one after another.
.....
At this moment, Christian can finally feel Ella by his side.
His hands could feel the warmth of Ella’s body from the clothes that separated them. The scent he was inhaling right now was the one he really missed.
All his annoyance and anger disappeared in an instant.
Ella still couldn’t recover and realized what had happened. Why is Christian here? There was panic in her mind. She immediately reacted and pushed the man away saying, “How did you find this place?”
Her heart was beating so fast as if her chest could burst in an instant.
“If I don’t find you, do you really intend not to see me again forever?” Christian asked this without answering Ella’s question.
Of course Ella would nod since it was a promise between them. “What should I do? I’ve left the house. Why am I seeing you again?”
Ella cleaned the sand in her hands. After that, she crouched down and went back to playing with the children, building their castle.
Christian felt his chest tighten, but he didn’t know who to vent to.
“Uncle,” a little girl beside him pulled his hand away. “Would you like to build a palace with this beautiful sister?”
Uncle?
Did he look that old?
“Call me brother,” Christian said in a serious voice. Even though Ella looked very young, Ella shouldn’t be called sister while Christian was called uncle, right?
If Ella could be called sister, he should be called brother!
The little girl looked at Christian with a questioning look and then said, “But you are an uncle.”
Christian almost choked in his annoyance. He pointed at Ella and said, “Then why is she a sister?”
The little girl tilted her head, looked thoughtful for a moment and said, “Because big sister is so pretty.”
That explanation caused a grim expression to appear on Christian’s face. Did that mean he’s not handsome? He couldn’t even count how many women were waiting in line to date him. How could he not be handsome?
Ella listened to the conversation between these two while holding back a smile. That little girl is really cute!
Just as Christian was about to say something else, Ella said, “Don’t give the little girl trouble. What’s wrong with speaking the truth?”
“Ella!” Christian gritted his teeth as he called Ella’s name.
This woman had just returned to his life, how could she irritate him so easily! Why is this woman so easy to provoke his anger?
Ella turned and looked at Christian with a smile. “What? Am I wrong?” That smile really looked so dazzling in Christian’s eyes.
He forgot how long he hadn’t seen Ella. At this moment, he felt Ella was getting more beautiful, like an angel who came down to earth.
Even though she didn’t wear makeup or expensive clothes, Ella still looked very charming.
Christian had moved first. He crouched down in front of Ella and raised his arms to embrace her. After that, he immediately kissed her lips.
“Ahhh!!” Some of the small children there screamed at the sight of Christian kissing Ella, but no one left. They covered their eyes with their fingers, but then peeked between them.
Ella tried to free herself, but Christian held her tight so she couldn’t go anywhere.
Her face turned red at a speed that the eye couldn’t see.
When Christian was about to explore further, Ella suddenly bit the man’s tongue.
Christian really felt so angry. He looked at Ella and said, “How dare you!”
This woman is really rude.
“Thanks for the compliment,” Ella rolled her eyes. She rose to her feet, still flushed, but her gaze was calm as she looked at him. “We are no longer in touch. I ask that you treat me with respect.”
“That doesn’t matter,” Christian’s gaze locked onto Ella’s face. “I told you, if I find you again, I won’t let you go again.”
“Yes,” Ella looked at Christian calmly. “But at that time, you didn’t have a fiancée yet.” At that point, Christian still wanted her. Christian had no other woman beside him. Ella still wanted many things from him. Ella wanted his help.
But now, it’s all over.
“I don’t have a fiancée.” Christian looked at Ella intently. “You approached me because you wanted me to help you get your revenge, right? If you come back to me, I will help you repay all the suffering you have ever felt before. I will help you make them pay ten times over.”
Christian didn’t have much experience with women. He couldn’t speak sweetly either. He only said what he could do for Ella if she wanted to come back to him.
But sadly, Ella just shook her head. “No need.” Unknowingly, her hands that were beside her body were tightly clenched. “I feel that my life is good enough now. I don’t want to change anything. I don’t want to come back to you.”
Finally, she was able to rebuild her life and live the life she wanted. She didn’t want it all to fall apart just because of Christian’s sudden return.
She knew that her life would be so much easier with Christian. But what could she get by Christian’s side? She did not want to be next to Christian with the title as ‘Christian’s woman’, or worse ‘Christian’s companion’.
She didn’t want to have a relationship without clarity, without a future.
Christian could feel anger rising in his heart. But in the end, he just said, “Do you think I want to find you? Nathan is sick.”
