Chapter 180
180 He Came
“With your current status, there are so many women who want to marry you, right? You can choose one to be your wife.”
Liam felt pain in his heart, but his face kept smiling as if it was all a joke. “Why do you sound like my parents now? Don’t tell me to get married immediately.”
Liam couldn’t panic. He couldn’t back down, but he couldn’t push Ella either.
If Ella didn’t want to talk to him now, he would be patient and wait for that moment.
No matter how much time he had to pass, Liam would wait. Even if he had to wait forever, he wouldn’t regret it.
Ella shook her head and chuckled. “If you meet a good woman, you must marry her.”
Liam just shook his head, not saying anything.
The atmosphere was getting even more awkward now.
Seeing people starting to gather around them again, Ella got up and said goodbye to Liam. “I still have to work. Otherwise my salary will be deducted later.”
.....
Liam just nodded with a look full of tenderness. No matter how cold Ella treated him, Liam would still be nice to her and take care of her.
Ella’s back disappeared as she went through the sea of ??people.
Since they already knew about her relationship with Liam, they became very polite and even respectful towards Ella.
This was the advantage of having power.
Ella couldn’t help but feel sad in her heart. When would she be able to raise enough money to buy back her mother’s house?
If she couldn’t get the money, she could only try to talk to her father. She could only hope that her father still thought about the family relationship they had in the past.
Ella turned and sat at the bar. The bartender who was guarding the bar immediately approached her and asked, “Sis, wasn’t the last time you came here... You went home with Mr. Christian?”
When the bartender said that, Ella immediately looked around anxiously.
Luckily, no one heard them. Everyone was busy with their own business.
“Shhh...”
Ella immediately gestured for him to silence and asked in a low voice, “How did you know?”
“I heard it from the manager,” he said with a mysterious smile. Even though he was a man, he couldn’t stop himself from gossiping. “How does it feel being fought over by many men?”‘
Ella just watched the man carefully. The man had white and smooth skin. His appearance was pretty attractive, it’s obvious that he took care of himself. Ella’s expression immediately changed as she understood something.
This man... was he gay?
Ella felt her heart cold as she listened to the man’s question. “Not fun at all.”
She almost died at Christian’s hands.
The man in front of her looked at Ella suspiciously. “How could it be?”
He wanted to ask more questions, but his gaze drifted towards the door as someone entered. “Ah... Th-That... He’s coming!”
“What? Who?” Ella raised her eyebrows and turned her gaze in the direction the man was looking at. She immediately panicked.
How could that man come here?
Shouldn’t he be eating at home and spending time with his son?
However, after panicking for a moment, Ella regained her composure.
Maybe he came here to discuss business matters. Incidentally, this bar was also used as a meeting place for important people.
No wonder he came here too.
But right now, the bar manager couldn’t be as calm as Ella.
Why did Christian suddenly come? Was it because of Ella?
He rushed to Ella in a hurry and asked, “Ella, you and Mr Christian... Are you guys really out of touch now?”
“Hmm...” Ella nodded and gave him a confident look.
The manager heaved a sigh of relief. “If Mr Christian still has feelings for you and knows that I’ve accepted you back to work here, he won’t forgive me,” the manager said, patting Ella on the shoulder.
“In that case, okay. I will welcome him.”
Meanwhile, Liam was unaware of Christian’s arrival.
The sound of noisy music mixed with the chatters from the crowd seemed to cover everything.
He didn’t like this kind of environment, but he couldn’t leave Ella alone in this place. For Ella’s sake, he decided to stay.
His assistant looked at Liam with a worried look. He knew that his master loved the woman very much. But unfortunately, the woman did not have the same feelings as his master.
How cruel...
Moreover, this master was also very stubborn. He couldn’t persuade him to leave the place at all.
Meanwhile, the bar manager was already greeting Christian with a big smile. “Welcome, sir,” he said as he ushered Christian into the VIP room.
Christian rarely came to this bar, but the manager was well aware of his habits. Christian didn’t like being in a crowd.
The manager thought Christian had come to this place to discuss business. But as soon as he arrived in front of the VIP room, Christian’s question immediately took the manager by surprise.
“Where’s Ella?”
The manager’s body immediately trembled uncontrollably. He cursed himself inwardly.
Didn’t Ella say she no longer had a relationship with Christian? If they’re no longer in touch, why was Christian suddenly looking for her here?
“Sir, are you looking for Ella? Let me call her,” as soon as the manager turned and was about to leave, Christian raised his hand.
“No need,” he said curtly.
That damn woman actually came to this place.
Thirty minutes ago, Christian was sitting at the dining table enjoying his dinner. It was at that moment that he realized that he had not seen Ella for several days.
When he sent a servant to look for her, Ella was no longer in the house.
Ella was alone and had nowhere to go but that house. The only place that crossed Christian’s mind was this bar.
Christian looked at his surroundings with intense anger.
Thinking about how attractive Ella looked in her work clothes, Christian felt like kicking everyone out of the place so no one could see her.
The bar manager watched the expression on Christian’s face very carefully. But after a while, he still couldn’t understand what Christian was thinking right now.
It took a while before Christian finally moved from his place.
However, he did not enter the VIP room. The man returned to the hall instead.
“Where’s Ella?” Christian asked again.
The manager raised his hand and pointed in a direction. Christian saw a petite woman sitting at the bar talking to a bartender.
The corners of his lips slowly curled up as he stepped towards Ella.
