Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

176 Back to Work

“I’ll be back tomorrow,” Ella said softly. Seeing Nathan’s tiny face that was almost crying, Ella couldn’t bear it.

She couldn’t bear to leave Nathan alone. She also did not want to part with Nathan.

Even though her relationship with Christian wasn’t good, her feelings for Nathan were very sincere.

There was a bit of guilt in her heart right now because she lied to Nathan. She was afraid that one day, Nathan would hate her after knowing everything.

“I’m just going to go sell my old stuff and go to work to ask the manager if he’ll take me back there.” Ella said, stroking Nathan’s head. “I will not leave you.”

“Old woman...” Suddenly, tears flowed from Nathan’s eyes and they continued to flow like a river. “You have lied to me so many times. I can’t trust you anymore.”

Nathan held Ella’s thigh so she couldn’t leave. He was afraid that if Ella left the house, Ella would never come back.

He was afraid he would never see Ella again.

Before, Nathan had never met someone who treated him as sincerely as Ella.

.....

Everyone tried to approach him because of his father’s status and his wealth. Only Ella loved him unconditionally.

“If you don’t come back, I will tell my father to take you home,” the threat made Ella smile.

“I promise,” Ella replied softly.

Ella rummaged through her bag and looked for a bracelet from the pile of jewels.

“This is for you,” it was a bracelet with a small size, especially for children.

When she was 8 years old, Ella chose this bracelet as her birthday present. The model was simple, but inside was the date of her birth that was very beautifully engraved.

At the time of her eighth birthday, her father still loved her very much. The man specifically ordered this bracelet and engraved her birthday date on the inside.

This was Ella’s favorite piece of jewelry because it was a gift from her father, whom she looked up to as her hero. Her first love...

“Let me put it on for you,” Ella took Nathan’s hand and put the bracelet on him. After that, she looked at it with satisfaction. “It looks good, doesn’t it!”

Nathan’s white and smooth skin was now adorned with a beautiful bracelet. Nathan also thought that it looked very good. He twisted his wrist and said, “Thank you.”

Previously, Nathan was not very fond of jewelry. He always felt jewelry was a feminine thing.

As a male, he should not wear feminine items such as bracelets.

But what Ella gave him was different. Ella always gave the best for him.

Seeing Nathan happy, Ella could only breathe a sigh of relief. Luckily, Nathan liked it. Even though the bracelet was an old item, this was all Ella could give Nathan.

That bracelet had so many wonderful memories about her...

“Just think of this bracelet when you miss me. I will always be by your side.” Ella smiled as she pinched Nathan’s cheek affectionately.

Nathan nodded and stroked the bracelet. “Old woman, you should come back soon!”

After that, Ella took her other jewelry out of the house.

The butler wanted to chase after her, but Nathan stopped him. “Let her go today.”

Finally, the butler decided to take Nathan’s words. Perhaps Ella had realized her mistake and wanted to meet Christian. That’s a good thing!

Ella left Christian’s house and headed straight for the jewelry store, asking how much money she could make off all her jewelry.

There were so many jewelry stores in the city and in no time, Ella found the right place.

Rarely did people come to sell jewelry, let alone a woman wearing expensive clothes. In addition, Ella also tried to bargain the price and get a higher price, much to the surprise of the shopkeeper.

He rubbed his eyes and looked at the clothes Ella was wearing once again.

This can’t be real!

Based on his years of experience, he couldn’t possibly misjudge people.

The people who came and went to his shop were mostly women from affluent circles. He was also very confident in his ability to judge others.

Ella didn’t care about the shopkeeper’s gaze. She just wanted to sell her jewelry at a high price.

When she bought all these jewels, Ella didn’t really care about the price so she didn’t know the price at all. Now, she felt stupid.

She hated herself. Why didn’t she have a smart brain and a strong memory? She could’ve found the place where she bought the jewelry and found out the price.

In the past, her father was very generous to her. He always bought everything Ella wanted. Regardless of the price, Budi would definitely give Ella whatever she wanted.

The memory was a beautiful memory for Ella.

But sadly, remembering it now made her heart feel sore.

“Miss, I... I have already given you the highest price,” said the shopkeeper. He didn’t lie and didn’t try to deceive Ella. He even had given a higher price than the average price in the market.

“Call your manager,” Ella said to the shopkeeper.

The manager rushed over. Through his glasses, he looked at Ella with admiration. However, after hearing the story from the shopkeeper, he became suspicious.

“Which family are you from?”

It didn’t matter if he had to raise the price a little. The manager just didn’t want to get into trouble if it turned out that this woman was a girl who had run away from home.

“From the Maheswara Family, Isabella Maheswara.”

Ella made no attempt to hide it.

And it immediately incited whispers among her surroundings.

“Are you the banished daughter of the Maheswara Family? What a pity...”

Ella just smiled blandly without saying anything. It was the first time she had received pity from another person.

Everyone from a prominent family tried to stay away from her, seeing her like a virus just because she was put into a mental hospital once. They all thought mental illness was a contagious disease and they were afraid that Ella would infect them with it.

The manager adjusted his glasses again. Thinking that this lady in front of him would not cause any trouble for him, he nodded.

Finally, Ella managed to sell all the jewelry she had.

All the money was sent straight to her bank

After that, Ella exited the jewelry store, headed to the bus stop and went to the bar where she worked.

She didn’t really like the place where many people gathered to drink, but that was the only place that accepted her.
