Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress-Chapter 272
272 The Face That Always Fills the News
In the last few days, Christianβs face had been constantly appearing in the newspapers.
Almost everyone in town was guessing whether he would end up with Nadia or not. After all, the two of them are very compatible in many ways. Ζπ³π²ππππππ¨vπ¦l.πoπ¦
There are even some people who make an analysis about how much profit they can get for their companies and families if they get married.
Nadia can give everything that Ella canβt give to Christian.
She didnβt deserve to be compared to Nadia at all and Ella knew that very well.
Ella came to her senses.
Looking at the pensive woman beside him, Liam took the newspaper in Ellaβs hand. He saw a photo of Nadia leaning on Christianβs shoulder. They both looked very affectionate and sweet, as if wanting to tell the world that they were about to announce some good news.
Liam doesnβt know what Christian is up to and he doesnβt care.
What Christian is doing right now makes him very happy.
.....
If Christian has forgotten Ella, his chances of getting Ella will be even greater.
He could make Ella happier than Christian.
βElla, you should forget about him,β Liam said, looking Ella in the eye. βIf it werenβt for him, you wouldnβt have suffered. Youβve been with him for a few months, but what did he give you? A promise to take revenge?β
Liamβs voice was gentle, but the impact was so great it was like a dagger stabbing deep into her heart.
Itβs true. Christian didnβt give her anything.
Even after she left, Christian immediately replaced her with another woman.
Unknowingly, Ellaβs hands were tightly clenched.
Ella was not a vindictive person. Since childhood, although she was stubborn, she was a forgiving girl. She could forget the mistakes of others easily.
But the suffering she felt for 5 whole years made her lose her kindness. She had a strong obsession within her, an obsession for revenge.
Her obsession to make those who had done bad to her feel what she felt.
She was so engrossed in her grudge that anything else should be of no importance to her. Including Christian.
Supposedly, Christian is an insignificant part of her life. But why did everything seem to change now?
Luca listened to this conversation with a surprised look in his eyes.
He did not expect that Ella held such a big grudge against the Maheswara Family.
But if he thought about it carefully, itβs no wonder Ella wanted revenge. Ella had been in a mental hospital for too long that hatred took root in her heart.
Ellaβs sudden entry into a mental hospital was of course not a simple matter.
Whatβs more, after three days, Luca could tell that Ella was not a person with a mental illness.
However, the problem behind it, only Ella knows.
Ella looked at Liam with determination and said, βLiam, donβt you believe me? I have absolutely no feelings for him.β After that, Ella smiled. βI know what you think. But Iβm not like other women who tried to get Christianβs attention to get him to marry me. I donβt have time to think about such things.β
Liam nodded. What Ella said just now was his utter worry.
When it came to competing with Haikal, Liam believed he was much better. But with Christian? He wasnβt too sure.
The power and wealth he had was not as big as Christian who had been in the business world for many years. If Christian suddenly attacked him, Liam wouldnβt be able to fight back. He couldnβt even do anything.
He had to wait until he was much stronger before he could challenge Christian head-on.
The atmosphere in the room grew heavier. Finally, Luca said, βAlright, letβs not talk about the past. The past has passed and there is no need to care. The most important thing now is to enjoy the present and think about the future.β
After saying that, Luca turned to Ella, βYesterday, I didnβt finish teaching brush, right? How about we continue?β
Ella nodded and the topic of conversation turned to painting techniques.
Liam listened in silence to their conversation, but he wasnβt bored at all. His gaze was fixed on Ella, and he looked at her with tenderness.
This is the woman he loves.
Being near Ella made him feel calm.
After listening to Lucaβs long explanation, Ella started practicing it by painting directly. Ella really admired Luca. The man possessed extraordinary technique, no less than the teacher her family had once called to teach her painting.
Ella started to raise her hand that was already holding the brush. But suddenly something crossed her mind.
βSomethingβs wrong with Haikal.β
Liam was taken aback by this sudden topic. He frowned and asked, βWhatβs wrong?β
When talking about Haikal, Liam realized the strangeness the man showed. Why did Haikal bring a girl who looked like Ella to his company yesterday?
After Liam drove Clara home, Haikal didnβt contact him anymore so he didnβt know what his real purpose was. Itβs as if he really wanted to introduce the girl for no reason.
βBefore I left Christianβs house, Haikal always contacted me. He kept explaining what had happened before and promising a better life for me.β
Ellaβs words made Liamβs gaze serious.
The man had warned Haikal beforehand that he was the one who would marry Ella later. He didnβt expect Haikal to ignore his warning and keep bothering Ella.
Ella was still so lost in her memories that she didnβt even notice the expression on Liamβs face. After thinking for a while, she said, βIβve been in contact with Haikal for quite a while, so I know his nature. I think he wants something from me. Or he still wants me and doesnβt want to let me go.β
βBut...β Ella frowned. βHe knew Christian would be mad if he did. Why would he take such a big risk?β
This is the weirdest thing of all that Haikal had done.
Liam was happy that Ella reminded him to be careful of Haikal. He didnβt want Ella to be too stressed about this so he stroked her head and said, βDonβt worry too much about it. Let me take care of everything. You just need to paint here. Donβt worry, Iβm not stupid. I hope my cooperation with him will be successful. But if things donβt go well, I wonβt let him do something bad.β
βYou canβt be too careless when youβre with him,β after saying that, Ella continued painting.
Now, she has her own job to support her life. Of course she had to work hard.
Plus, this was her dream for a long time.
What they didnβt expect was that Haikal found Ella two days later.
Ever since Ella disappeared, Haikal had been constantly trying to find her. He even sent many people to follow Liam.
When Liam got suspicious, he would replace those people and send new ones.
Now, he finally found Ella again!
