Chapter 168
168 I Want My Mother
“Who told you to leave the room without my permission? Do you think you can come and go as you please?” Christian said irritably.
Previously, Ella did not know what made Christian angry. She woke up in an empty room. Did she have to wait stupidly for Christian to come back?
Or could it be that it was what Christian wanted? He wanted her to wait for him to return, like a pet waiting for its master.
Ella could only take a deep breath and lean in Christian’s arms. “Don’t you like me anymore?”
She raised her head with a pitiful look. Her gaze ran into Christian’s eyes with slightly watery eyes.
Christian could feel his breath catch.
Beautiful...
He tried to contain his feelings, but it made his face even more serious and sinister. Ella bit her lower lip and heard the sound of her heart beating faster with fear.
This man was so scary!
.....
She had tried to please Christian, persuade him and beg in his presence, but nothing had worked.
Somehow Christian’s mood was much more chaotic than usual today. Weird.
Wasn’t he happy when they were together in his office earlier?
Ella suddenly thought about what Laras said. Was it because Nathan’s mother was coming back, Christian wanted to kick her out?
At that thought, Ella’s body stiffened.
If it truly happened. What should she do? A woman who could bear a child for Christian must have a special position in his heart.
Even though Christian liked her, Ella felt she was more like a pet than a lover.
What she got from Christian was pity, not true love.
Christian could sense Ella’s mood falling into turmoil and he looked up at her. “What are you thinking about?”
“I’m afraid you don’t want me anymore.” The words were spoken very sincerely.
Ella was afraid that Christian didn’t want her anymore. She had not had time to achieve her goal. She hadn’t accomplished anything.
What if she didn’t succeed?
Ella’s appearance made Christian’s heart calm. The anger in his heart immediately disappeared when he saw Ella’s sadness and fear of losing him.
Christian raised his hand to stroke Ella’s head. “As long as you obey me, I will not leave you.”
At least, Christian still wanted Ella by his side now. For reasons that Christian himself didn’t understand, he wanted to pamper Ella, he wanted to love her and he wanted Ella to always be by his side.
For now.... He still didn’t know if this feeling would last for a while or forever...
“Really?” Ella asked in a soft voice, looking up at him.
“Hmm...” Christian nodded, taking Ella’s hand to walk towards the house. “Let’s eat.”
Ella nodded happily. With a promise coming from Christian’s own mouth, what else had Ella to fear. Christian would not leave her. She would succeed in achieving everything she wanted!
As soon as Ella entered the living room, she felt her head hurt again. This time, the problem didn’t come from Christian, but from his mini version.
Nathan was sitting on the sofa with his arms folded across his chest. His round face looked displeased. This old woman went to meet his father alone and didn’t take him with her.
This old woman had promised to take him out with her, but she left him alone instead.
At first, Nathan didn’t like seeing any woman approach his father, but he didn’t mind if Ella looked for him. In fact, he didn’t want Ella and his father to keep fighting.
However, what annoyed him was, Ella left him alone here!
Ella let go of Christian’s hand and walked over to Nathan. She wanted to laugh when she saw the fat boy’s sulking face.
Nathan’s pouting cheeks made his chubby cheeks rounder. In addition, his cheeks looked a little red, looking very adorable.
Ella came over and sat beside Nathan as she asked softly, “Are you angry?”
The question made Nathan even more annoyed. His tiny pouting lips deepened as he ignored Ella.
Of course he was angry! Who didn’t get mad at being left alone! How could this old woman ask him!
“Alright, alright. Who made our Little Master angry?”
Ella softened her voice. After all, Nathan was a child. He was pampered since childhood so he was a little rude and difficult to manage. But fortunately, Nathan did not take his anger out on the maid in the house.
Christian also stood still in his place. Even though it was his son who was angry right now, his eyes were still on Ella.
Ella looked very beautiful. Her way of coaxing Nathan was very gentle and motherly.
Hearing her soft and sweet voice made a storm rumble in his eyes.
He really wanted to pick up Ella and take her to their room right now, no matter how angry his son was.
All of Ella’s attention was focused on Nathan so she didn’t pay attention to Christian anymore.
No matter what she said, Nathan kept his mouth shut and didn’t want to say anything.
Ella kept talking until her mouth felt dry. There were times she tried to persuade Nathan and there were times she stopped.
She knew her words couldn’t bring Nathan’s mood back, so she kept quiet. Nathan narrowed his eyes and looked at Ella with an unreadable look.
Until now, no ‘hate’ had come out of Nathan’s mouth so Ella could still breathe a sigh of relief.
Nathan finally said, “Come with me.”
After saying that, the boy ran upstairs.
Ella hurried after him.
Christian felt very uncomfortable after he left the scene.
Liam was the number one figure in Ella’s heart and his son was next to him, exactly in second place. Then, is he the third?
Christian sighed in annoyance and went to his room with an irritated look.
When Ella and Nathan arrived upstairs, Nathan sat on his bed and said seriously, “Why did you leave me alone at home today?”
“I thought you were starving earlier. So I don’t want to disturb your meal,” Ella explained helplessly. It turned out that this fat boy was also vindictive like his father.
“I’ve eaten a lot. Why do you think I’m hungry!” Nathan looked at Ella stubbornly.
Ella opened her mouth and decided to apologize. “It’s my fault.”
It was true that Ella was wrong here. She was too agitated and rushed out to apologize to Christian that she didn’t think about Nathan’s feelings at all.
Nathan lay on his bed and rolled around in annoyance.
“I don’t want you anymore! I want my mother!”
