Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

Chapter 74

74 A Mother’s Love

The sound of constant slapping echoed through the supermarket. The few people who had originally gathered to see this commotion had already left one after another.

The supermarket manager watched this scene in horror. He did not dare to say a word, he could only pray that this incident would not involve or affect his place.

Christian looked at the incident in front of him with a flat gaze. There was a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

He walked over to Nathan and asked softly, “Are you tired?”

Only when dealing with Nathan did Christian show his soft side.

At this moment, Ella was still covering Nathan’s eyes. Her palms felt very soft and her embrace made Nathan feel sleepy.

“Hmm...”

After he answered, Ella had already lowered her hand. She realized that this incident was her fault so she rushed to apologize. “Christian, I’m sorry. Because of me, I got you and Nathan involved.”

Ella said this from the bottom of her heart.

.....

She really didn’t think it would turn out like this. She only wanted to buy a snack for Nathan.

Before entering the supermarket, she had seen the figures of Merry and Indri from afar. And after seeing them, Ella had also been trying to avoid them.

Ella had absolutely no intention of getting Nathan involved. She didn’t want anyone to call Nathan an illegitimate child, like Indri did.

Christian looked at the woman in front of him.

This woman has a soft heart, but she is also stubborn and determined. Her beautiful face showed all her courage.

When Christian came to this place, he noticed that there were so many people looking his way. He couldn’t count how many of them.

There was a hint of anger in his heart and he said coldly, “Why are you so useless today? You make me suspicious of your purpose in bringing Nathan to this place.”

Ella’s face looked gloomy when she heard Christian’s answer. She knew she deserved it because whatever she did to Christian actually had a purpose.

Ella couldn’t deny that she had thought about using Nathan in her plans. But she was not that kind of person.

“Even if I admit that I am not a woman with a good heart, I would never take advantage of a child.”

She lifted her head and looked at Christian.

Even though she had given her whole body to the demon in front of her, she still wanted to maintain her pride.

Christian had had her body, but that didn’t mean Ella had no self-respect.

She still had principles in this life.

She looked at Indri who was still screaming in pain. A charming smile appeared at the corner of her lips. “If you want, I can prove what I say.”

Christian just looks at Ella without saying anything.

Ella accepted the silence as approval. She stood up and walked towards Indri.

When she raised her hand, Christian’s bodyguard slapping Indri immediately stopped and made a way for her.

The guard had spent much of their time serving Christian. How could a mere babysitter be presumptuous in front of Christian? He was sure that Ella’s status was not just a babysitter.

Her status must be far more special.

“You still have the strength to scream. It seems their blows were too light.”

Ella still had her sweet smile on her face. But now Indri looks shaking.

“Ella... What... What do you want to do?”

She looked at Ella with a wary look. Every word that came out of her mouth sounded indistinct because now her cheeks were swollen from the slap.

She had never felt so scared in her life. For a woman, her face is the most important thing. But Christian’s bodyguard slapped her mercilessly.

She was afraid something would happen to her face. What if the wound would destroy her beauty later?

Even though her face wasn’t blemished, it would take her a long time to recover.

Ella squatted in front of Indri and looked at her step sister happily. “Don’t be afraid. I won’t do anything to you. After all, I have no power. While you and your mother still have the entire Maheswara Family who can defend you.”

Merry who was on the side just watched all this in silence. Her face immediately paled when she heard Ella’s words.

How could she not understand Ella’s words?

She looked at Ella in surprise. This girl was different from before. The old Ella wouldn’t have done something like this.

Ella used to be so stupid that she was easy to be tricked and tortured.

Haikal looked at Ella enthusiastically.

Why didn’t he realize earlier that Ella was so charming? The woman thrilled him to conquer her.

Judging from her relationship with Christian earlier, Haikal was sure that Ella was a babysitter to Christian’s son. Maybe Ella was too desperate and she just happened to get a job at Christian’s place.

If that was the case, things would be very easy for him.

A babysitter.... how could she refuse the son of the Adisurya Family?

Ella didn’t pay attention to their expressions. Her gaze was only fixed on Indri who was in front of her.

“Indri, actually I feel sorry for you,” after saying it, she pointed at Merry. “I know your relationship with your mother is very deep. Ah, but... When you’re being beaten so badly like this, why didn’t she come forward to defend you? Why didn’t she protect you?”

Indri immediately frowned upon hearing this.

Meanwhile, Merry immediately shouted. “Don’t pit us against each other!” After that, she looked at her daughter with great affection. “Indri, don’t listen to her bullshit. I love you very much. You are my only daughter. You’re the only one I have.”

As she said it, Merry’s tears streamed down her face. “My poor daughter... Blame me for being useless. Blame me because I couldn’t protect you.”

“How touching...”

Ella’s lips curled into a smile again. “I don’t have a mother, so I don’t know what it’s like to be loved by a mother. But I read a lot of books. They said, a mother’s love can make a mother do anything to save her child. I don’t know if you think the same as me or not...”

“Of course!” Indri shouted loudly. “How would you know if you didn’t have a mother?”

After saying that, she winced in pain. Her cheeks still felt hot and her lips hurt. But since she was so angry, she couldn’t help but yell at Ella.

Hearing Ella say this, Merry knew this woman must have a plan. She felt irritated when she heard her daughter’s words, but she couldn’t deny it.

She knew her daughter very well.

If there was even the slightest doubt in Indri’s heart, it would get bigger and worse. If that happened, her relationship with Indri could be damaged!

Finally, she could only nod her head and add in a soft voice, “Ella, even though I’m just your stepmother... I also love you the same...”
