Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

219 Who Is That Woman?

“Now I’m Christian’s partner. There’s no way I’m looking for Haikal again, right? It’s just that you keep reminding me of the unforgivable things you did in the past.” Ella’s words made Budi have a bad feeling.

He shouldn’t be looking for trouble with Ella. Otherwise, things will only get worse.

He wanted to say something to divert the conversation, but Ella had spoken first. “If you really don’t want me anymore, how about returning all the things that belong to me?”

Ella’s words made Budi frown. “What do you have?” When Ella was his daughter, Budi had given her everything she wanted.

What else could Ella ask of him now? Was everything he gave her back then not enough?

Ella knew if she didn’t say it now, she wouldn’t have another chance. Ignoring the others around them, she said, “There is a house I want. I’ll pay twenty billion for the house. Please give the house to me.”

Twenty billion?

Budi was very surprised when she heard the extraordinarily large amount.

He is indeed rich and has many possessions. But twenty billion is not a small amount. He can use the money for many things, including his company.

.....

If he could really benefit from this, why not?

After all, Budi has many houses. The most valuable house was the one he lived in now, but there was no way Ella wanted that house. The house meant nothing to Ella.

Budi frowned, thinking about which house Ella was referring to. And suddenly, his eyes lit up. Ella must want her mother’s house!

The house was of little value to him. It’s not even worth 10 billion, but Ella is willing to buy it at double the price.

How could this not interest him?

Initially, Budi wanted to give the house to Indri as a wedding gift. After all, the house was of no use to him. He will not care even if the house becomes the property of the Adisurya Family later.

But today, Indri had embarrassed him so much, not to mention in front of so many people. Therefore, he abandoned his intention to give the house as a gift.

In addition, he could see Haikal’s love for Indri would not last too long. Why waste his wealth on Indri then?

But Budi didn’t want to promise Ella the house in front of so many people. Everyone would look down on him if he accepted twenty billion from his own daughter, just for the sake of a house.

He pretended to be cold and stern. “We’ll talk about it later.”

However, that answer was enough for Ella. She knew that her father was tempted by her offer. Ella breathed a sigh of relief after that.

Today, her main purpose in coming to that place was just for her mother’s house. Ella deliberately wanted to make Indri angry, but she had no intention of doing anything to thwart this marriage.

She just wanted to get her father to hand the house over to her.

Christian’s hand that was holding Ella’s hand could feel the sweat on her palm. His brows slightly raised as he felt it.

How much did the house mean to Ella to make her like this?

After that, time flew by quickly. Ella’s mood improved because she had managed to get her wish. She no longer cares about Indri and enjoys her food happily.

Compared to the others, her appetite seemed much better.

Meanwhile, Christian doesn’t eat. His gaze was fixed on Ella. “Eat slowly. No one will take your food away.” He raises his hand and caresses her hair gently.

Because of his actions, everyone around him was wide-eyed. It was the first time they had seen Christian treat a woman like this.

To be precise, it was their first time seeing Christian together with a woman!

After eating, Ella returned to the car in a good mood.

“Christian, thanks for today.” If Christian hadn’t accompanied her, those people would have kicked her out.

Christian smiled at her and replied, “You owe me.”

‘Couldn’t this man be a little generous to me?’ Ella thought, frowning.

...

At home, Ella saw Nathan waiting for them in the living room. Hearing the sound of a car in the yard, Nathan immediately got up and ran towards the front door.

Ella’s arrival was greeted by a fat kid who immediately hugged her legs. Even though she was wearing a dress now, Ella could carry Nathan with ease.

“Old woman, I saw you on TV,” he said, pointing to the large TV screen in the living room.

Ella turned and looked at the screen. It was a live broadcast of Haikal and Indri’s wedding. To show that her daughter had married into a rich family, Merry even did such an exaggeration.

Unfortunately, her efforts have been ruined because of Ella’s presence.

Nathan muttered, “Hey, you look so pretty on TV.” His face looked very sincere when he said it.

The compliment came from an innocent 5 year old. A child of Nathan’s age wouldn’t be able to lie.

Then, he patted his chest and promised. “When you and I get married, our marriage will be much greater than theirs.”

Ella’s lips twitched, holding back her awkwardness. She still couldn’t imagine being proposed to by a child who was almost two decades younger than her.

But she was touched by Nathan’s sincerity. Nathan said all this because he truly loved her. Or more accurately, Nathan loved her. She stroked Nathan’s head and said, “I’m so happy.”

Nathan blushed and smiled shyly. “I’m very happy too.”

Christian looks at his woman and son in front of him. His brows seemed to be scrunched up again and again, feeling a dilemma at such a sight.

He didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.

He was annoyed that his son was so close to Ella, but also pleased that the boy had finally opened up. For some reason, there was a sense of calm in his heart when he saw Nathan and Ella so close.

Just as Christian is about to open his mouth, his cell phone suddenly rings.

The name on the screen made his brows furrow. He left Ella and Nathan to pick up the phone. While walking towards the park, Christian picks up the call. “Grandpa...”

The greeting did not please the person on the other end of the phone. The old man growled in annoyance. “I saw today’s news.”

Christian understands his grandfather’s point.

The wedding between Haikal and Indri was broadcast live on TV. Christian didn’t warn the media not to cover him so the media would not miss this opportunity.

Now there must be so much news about him out there.

Christian didn’t say anything so Hartono continued from the other side. “Who is she?”
