312 Empty Plate and Lonely Heart
“Stop making trouble!”
“Looking for trouble?” Christian looked at Ella casually. “You are not my woman anymore. Why should I be polite to you?”
Christian just wanted Ella to know that by being his woman, things would get better. He would always treat his woman special.
If Ella refused to be his woman, she better not blame Christian for making her life difficult.
Ella was irritated by Christian’s attitude. With a defiant smile on her face, she said, “I am not your servant. Why should I make tea for you?” After saying that, Ella immediately threw all the contents of the cup and teapot into the trash.
Like two kids fighting, Christian and Ella wouldn’t budge even though it was really a small matter that made them fight.
They had a fight over a cup of tea...
“Why did you throw it away?”
“Just throw me away. Get me out of here. I don’t want to live here.”
.....
“You want to go? I won’t let you step out of here until you become my woman again!” Christian said coldly. His gaze was fixed on Ella, as if he wanted to freeze Ella in her place so she couldn’t leave.
Ella just snorted coldly. “Are you that low now? Seriously? Threatening a woman?”
“As a businessman, I only care about results. I really don’t care about the process and the way to get it,” Christian replied shamelessly.
“You...” Ella felt that there was no point in talking to Christian anymore. She would never be able to win an argument with a man like him.
Silently, she looked at Christian with a furrowed brow.
This man had really gone mad. It’s only been a few days since she left him, but Christian had become very strange.
Finally, Ella decided to leave Christian and went to Nathan’s room.
Nathan didn’t have a fever anymore. His body was no longer hot and his energy had returned a little although his face was still a little pale.
Beside him, the doctor was still taking his temperature. He was still checking Nathan when he saw Ella enter the room. Silently, he glanced at Ella.
Earlier, Nathan’s bedroom door was not closed so he could hear the conversation between Christian and Ella clearly.
His jaw almost dropped from his chin because he couldn’t believe the argument between the two adults.
Is it true that the person downstairs is the same man he knows?
Such a cruel and cold man was arguing with a woman over a small matter. How strange.
Ella felt uncomfortable with the look the doctor gave her. She felt like an animal in a zoo being watched for her movements.
Ella rubbed her shuddering arm. Before she could ask, the doctor had already said, “Miss, you are a very interesting person.”
Ella could only look at the doctor suspiciously. “I don’t think that’s a compliment.”
The doctor laughed loudly, though there was nothing to laugh at. “Miss, you are very cute.”
Ella could only purse her lips in annoyance. Pouting like this made Ella look even cuter.
Nathan was listening to the two of them on the bed and couldn’t help but join in. “Right. I also feel that the old woman is attractive. She is also very beautiful. Even though she is bad, in my eyes, she is perfect.”
Nathan looked very excited when he said that, as if he was boasting and showing off Ella as his future wife.
Ella shook her head. What Nathan said did not please her at all. This fat kid wasn’t praising her, especially when he said she was bad!
Even though Ella did spank Nathan’s ass once, it was only once. After that, Ella always treated Nathan very well. Why was she still bad in Nathan’s eyes?
The doctor laughed at Nathan’s words. “It seems that Young Master really likes you, Miss Ella.”
“Yeah,” Nathan’s face looked embarrassed this time. “I really like her.”
Even though Nathan had said it in front of Ella, this was the first time he had said it in front of other people. He felt like he was expressing his feelings in public.
Ella felt exasperated when she saw Nathan blush. “I really like you too.”
The atmosphere in Nathan’s room was very different from when Ella was with Christian. With Christian, Ella was always fuming with rage. Their gazes were cold to each other.
...
During dinner, Nathan went downstairs holding Ella’s hand. Christian was already sitting at the dining table with his cold aura. It was very clear that these two were at war.
“Father, what’s wrong with you?” Nathan was in a good mood. Seeing that his father was angry, he paid no attention to anything and went straight to him.
“It doesn’t matter. Just eat,” the cold reply made Nathan sit down obediently.
Ella’s return home made him feel really happy. He kept bringing food to Ella’s plate until it’s full.
“Hey, the food out there isn’t as good as it is at home, right? You have to eat a lot. Here is fried chicken. Don’t forget the meat too. The lobster is also delicious...”
While babbling on, Nathan moved the food onto Ella’s plate which had been piled up. Ella looked at Nathan with a gentle gaze when she saw how much Nathan cared for her.
“Thank you very much,” she said softly.
Nathan’s face turned red again when he heard that soft voice. His eyes looked shy as he wanted to look into Ella’s face. He squeaked, “I feel ashamed that you suddenly confessed your feelings earlier.”
Nathan’s words made Ella smile sweetly. She felt that Nathan was really adorable, so different from his father!
That smile looked very dazzling in Christian’s eyes.
Why had Ella never smiled at him like that?
“Don’t you have hands? Can’t you get your own food?” Christian put his spoon and fork down hard. Nathan was surprised when he heard that. He saw Ella’s plate was full, while his father’s plate was empty.
Nathan immediately felt guilty. “I ignored dad too much, didn’t I?”
Christian is satisfied, he finally gets the attention from his son. “Why do you only care about her?”
Nathan thought for a moment and finally apologized. “Sorry. It is my fault. I should’ve paid attention to my lonely dad.” Nathan started to get various kinds of food for his father. “Dad, you should eat a lot of meat and vegetables.”
Ella almost choked on Nathan’s words. Can she laugh at Christian openly?
She wanted to laugh, but Christian’s gaze held her back, making her uncomfortable. Finally, Ella could only laugh at Christian inwardly, with a flushed face.
Christian was a lonely man, getting no attention from his son, not even a single vegetable.
Christian’s face looked grim. Why didn’t everything go his way?
Now Nathan and Ella laugh at him and think of him as a lonely man.
What annoyed him even more was Ella. Christian knew that his son was still very innocent and just wanted to be nice. But it’s different with Ella.
Ella just wanted to make fun of him.
Why did this woman keep on pissing him off?
“Ella, it seems I was too good to you.” Christian got to his feet and walked behind Ella. “I asked you to think about it earlier. Are you ready?”
