Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

201 Thinking of My Mother

“They’re getting married soon,” Liam said with a serious look.

“Married?” Ella repeated the word with confusion on her face.

Indri and Haikal are getting married soon?

Ella had guessed that Budi would speed up his plan, but she didn’t expect it to be so soon. The sooner the plan is carried out, the higher the success rate will be.

That’s why Budi did not want to delay any longer.

“He can’t wait any longer, huh?” As if he could see the doubt in Ella’s heart, Liam said slowly. His gaze was fixed out the window, filled with sadness. “Don’t you know your father’s nature?”

This question made Ella understand.

Budi is someone who will use anyone he can use to achieve his goals. He didn’t care even if he had to push that person to the abyss of hell.

Just like what happened to her...

.....

Budi also helped to destroy her life so cruelly five years ago.

Liam got up from the bed and took Ella’s hand. “Ella, let the past stay in the past. We have to move on with our lives.”

Perhaps since he was sick at the moment, Liam’s voice sounded weak.

His voice was different from his usual warm voice, it was mixed with a hint of hoarseness.

Ella felt her heart break.

How should she continue her life? Only by remembering the hatred in her heart could she force herself to survive.

No matter how hard it was, for the sake of getting revenge, Ella would not give up.

“Liam, do you mean I shouldn’t fight them?” Ella clenched her fists tightly as she looked at Liam.

For Ella, Liam is a very important figure. He’s someone who can influence her decisions.

Liam shook his head. “It’s not wrong if you want to retaliate against them for what they did to you. But I just hope you don’t waste your effort on people unnecessarily.”

Liam raised his hand and hugged Ella gently. “When we were young, we said we were going to be a family, right?”

His soft voice rang in Ella’s ears, making her feel calm.

“Liam, I...”

“Ella, I can be your family. Do you know why?” Liam paused and continued, “Because I am the one who loves you the most in this world.”

Liam can’t wait any longer to tell Ella that he loves her, no matter what Ella looks like now. He doesn’t care even though Ella has changed, Liam will still love her.

How could Haikal and Christian be compared to him?

He was sure Ella also knew this clearly.

Ella was pensive as she listened to Liam’s love confession. After a long silence, she said, “Liam, get some rest. I’ll go home.”

She knew that rejecting him was useless so she decided to change the subject.

Liam’s face looked a little disappointed. But he still nodded and smiled.

“Okay, be careful on your way home.” He decided to let Ella think about his love confession.

Liam let go of Ella’s hand, watching her back slowly disappearing from his room.

The servant opened the door to Liam’s room after Ella left and saw Liam standing alone. He was worried when he saw his Master’s condition.

Did the master and the lady fight earlier?

Just as he was about to ask, Liam spoke first.

“Next time, don’t send her here. She must be in trouble.”

“Yes, sir,” the servant nodded. Even though he was confused, he just obeyed his Master’s words and didn’t ask any further.

Liam stood in front of the window, leaning his weak body on the back of the sofa. The sun shone very brightly, making his body feel hot. The light that was so bright also shone on his body, making him feel much warmer.

“Ella, he won’t be your last destination. Why can’t you let him go?” Liam muttered with a bland smile on his face.

He feels that Ella actually cares about Christian, so she doesn’t want to leave him.

Ella is just trying to cover up the fact that her heart is slowly starting to belong to Christian. She uses the excuse of revenge to stay by Christian’s side.

...

Meanwhile, Ella returns to Christian’s house with her mind full of Liam’s words.

Haikal and Indri are getting married soon.

If they got married, it meant that her mother’s house would fall into Haikal’s hands.

Previously, Ella had asked Christian for a gift. At first, she wanted to ask for the house as a gift. But there’s not enough time and she’s not sure Christian will agree.

Christian just came back and saw Ella sitting pensively. He walked over to her and stroked her head.

“Did you know?” The question made Ella lift her head and look at the man before her. “They’re getting married soon.”

When Christian said that, his voice was deep.

Remembering the man who became Ella’s first love made Christian feel annoyed.

“Yesterday, the agreement was just approved. The media should have announced it on the news today.”

With a pensive look, Ella asked, “When?” Her mind was currently filled with her mother’s house. Her mother’s legacy...

The house will fall into Haikal’s hands. It would be more and more difficult for Ella to get it, not to mention that she still had to deal with Indri...

Ella felt sad when she thought about it.

When Christian looks at Ella’s face, he feels a fire in his heart. This woman looks very concerned about the marriage of her first love. Couldn’t she just accept that her first love would marry a woman who’s not her?

This makes Christian feel displeased.

“Are you thinking about Haikal?” Christian holds Ella’s chin. “Your first love is getting married. Is that what makes you sad?”

Ella shook her head blankly. She’s not in the mood to argue with Christian so she turns her gaze elsewhere.

“I was just thinking about something else.”

“What are you thinking about?” Christian doesn’t want to see Ella hiding things from him. He wanted to enter Ella’s heart. He wanted to know what Ella was thinking, what was bothering her right now.

Is he not comparable to Haikal? Is Haikal really that good of a person compared to him?

Christian becomes even more displeased after realizing that he lost to someone who is no match for him.

“My mother...” Ella took a deep breath. She knows that if she doesn’t answer the question, Christian will get angrier.

She just wants to be alone now.

Christian is slightly surprised and sits down next to Ella. Right now, he was wearing a casual t-shirt so he didn’t look as sharp as usual.

Ella didn’t feel nervous next to him.

“Didn’t I tell you that I will always be by your side?” Christian takes Ella’s hand and holds it. “You are my woman. I will not make you suffer.”

Those words made Ella’s heart beat fast, as if butterflies were floating in her stomach.
