Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

248 Do It Again

Christian opened a blue velvet box, revealing a sparkling diamond inside.

The sparkle of the diamond looked real, much brighter than the one in the photo. The lonely diamond reminded him of Ella.

He sat on the edge of the bed looking at Ella. At this moment, Ella was closing her eyes. Her breathing was regular, showing that she was really asleep.

There was a feeling of satisfaction in his heart when he saw the woman in the bed was sleeping peacefully.

He lifted the blanket that Ella was using gently and pulled her hand carefully. Then he put the ring on Ella’s ring finger.

The size is just right.

Christian looks at it for a long time and feels so satisfied.

His vision couldn’t deceive him. The ring fitted Ella perfectly.

Christian’s gaze returned to Ella’s neck. He saw the necklace that he gave to Ella. Both the necklace and ring had a simple design, but still looked perfect for Ella.

.....

When she felt something cold in her hand, Ella subconsciously opened her eyes. The first person she saw was Christian who was smiling faintly. His gaze was fixed on Ella’s ring as if he was obsessed with it.

Her fingers looked thin. Maybe Ella’s fingers weren’t this thin before. That only showed the suffering she’d gone through in the past five years. Although living the last few months in Christian’s house was much better than in a mental hospital, she still hadn’t returned to the way she used to be.

“What should I do with you?”

Christian sighed helplessly as he gripped Ella’s hand tightly. “Will they be able to give all of this like I gave you? This ring is very expensive. I’ll punish you if you lose it.”

Ella looked at Christian in surprise. She did not expect that Christian had this kind of childish side.

She should have laughed, but she couldn’t.

Like there was a big hole in her heart that made her throat choke. Her palms felt warm from the grip of Christian’s big hand.

Everything in front of her fascinated her. But sadly, her heart was already sore.

She remembered when Christian spoke to her with a cold face. Christian had always been cold to her and always looked at her condescendingly.

Christian’s coldness hadn’t changed at all, but there was something that made Ella feel much calmer.

When Ella wasn’t looking, Christian would smile a little. His gaze was no longer the same as before. Christian looks at her in a different light, even though his way of keeping Ella by his side is horribly wrong.

Unknowingly, Ella’s hand returned Christian’s grip.

Christian was taken aback for a moment. He turned his gaze towards Ella who was now looking at him and then released his grip.

Since Ella was holding onto that hand quite tightly, when Christian released it, his body tugged slightly. Ella had no strength in her body and felt her whole body limp.

How come? She tried to sleep but her stomach churned because she had no appetite. All day she just tried her best to lull herself into sleeping.

“Christian...” She called hoarsely.

Christian lifted his head to look at Ella when he heard the voice. His gaze looked a little depressed when he saw Ella’s current condition.

He sat beside Ella and helped her sit up.

“What do you want to say?” Christian asked softly. Almost all the stones weighing down on his heart had disappeared.

At least, Ella didn’t hate him as much as before.

“Why are you giving this to me? Do you pity me?” Ella asked. Since Christian couldn’t promise anything for the future, he wanted to give this ring as a consolation gift?

This was never the consolation that Ella wanted.

Hearing Ella’s words, Christian wanted to get angry. But seeing Ella’s appearance that was so weak now, his anger immediately evaporated. “No. I just feel like the ring really suits you well.”

Ella did not understand this man in front of her. Everything Christian did left her feeling confused.

“Hmm... Thank you,” said Ella. She leaned over and raised her arms to hug Christian. “If I leave one day and you can’t find me... please let me go.”

The warmth of the woman in his arms was pleasant, but Christian felt that he would lose it soon.

“I told you...”

“I beg of you,” Ella said in a low voice.

She took a deep breath. She was really tired.

Christian’s eyes darkened. “If that happens, don’t ever appear in front of me again.”

Ella nodded. “I will never appear before you again.”

Christian felt heart sinking in a deep ocean. He really regretted what he said and promised Ella.

But that is just an example.

Christian wouldn’t let Ella leave here and everything Ella said wouldn’t happen.

It’s rare to see Christian and Ella’s relationship peaceful like this. Seeing the bruises on Ella’s neck that were still clear, Christian took the ointment and treated it. He cursed himself repeatedly in his heart, why couldn’t he control his emotions!

Ella looked at him with a faint smile, but she didn’t say anything.

Christian’s hands stopped moving for a moment. A strange feeling rose in his heart. He was really scared. He was afraid of what Ella was planning.

But Christian couldn’t ask rashly. What if Ella gets mad at him again? What if they fight again?

Everything will get more complicated.

If Christian knew that Ella would be this happy after receiving the diamond ring from him, he shouldn’t have thought too long. Why did he feel confused before?

All his worries were in vain!

...

At the same time, at the Maheswara Family home, Budi was looking at his daughter in front of him with anger.

“I told you to keep an eye on him. Look at the stupid thing you did!” He was really angry with his daughter.

He had told Indri to always keep a good eye on Haikal, watching his every move. Even though Budi is old, he has a lot of experience in the business world. He can also guess what the Adisurya Family wants.

They try to take advantage of the marriage between Haikal and Indri, and find a way to attack the Maheswara Family.

Budi hit the table in front of him hard, looking at Indri as if the woman in front of him was not his daughter.

Indri, who was sitting across from him, couldn’t help but put on a bitter expression. Merry could not help but defend her daughter. No matter what Indri does, Indri is her daughter and she will always stand up for her.

“Budi, Haikal is getting help from the Jaya Family. Indri did not think all this would happen. You can’t blame her.”

“Jaya family? Is the person from the Jaya Family... Liam?” Suddenly Indri shouted loudly. She looked at Merry and said, “It’s all because of that bitch! It must be because of Ella! Ella wants to take her revenge on us.”

Budi just listened to Indri with a frown.

Looks like his eldest daughter is acting up again.
