Chapter 63
After the door was closed, Nathan became even more awkward. Why did he give it away so easily? Maybe he should have run out of the room and took the clothes away.
He lifted his head and looked at Christian. “Father, you’re not going to marry her, are you?” Nathan didn’t want to have a new mother. It was a topic he spoke most of the time in front of Christian.
He didn’t like all the women who approach Christian. He didn’t trust all of them, including Ella.
“No,” Christian replies quickly.
Upon hearing that answer, Nathan breathed a sigh of relief. His little face looks calm again.
He didn’t want this old woman to be his mother even though this old woman is actually pretty...
Ella was seen in the room holding the box she got happily. She did not expect much with Nathan’s choice of clothes. After all, he was just a 5 year old little boy.
Still, this box alone was enough to cheer her up, like a child who gets a present on her birthday.
.....
She rushed to open the box excitedly. But when she opened it, her body froze immediately.
Pink? She thought Nathan would pick her a random color, like red or bright blue. Or maybe green and yellow, colors that kids usually like.
She believed that as a boy, especially one who looked so much like his father, there was no way Nathan would like the color pink.
That means, when choosing this color, Nathan thought about her.
As Ella took it out of the box, she became even more disbelieving. It was no exaggeration for her to say that this was the most beautiful dress she had ever seen.
However, she did not spend her teenage years in beautiful dresses, like girls in general.
After putting it on, she stood in front of the mirror. She looked much prettier, at least compared to Christian’s secretary who was looking at her with hatred earlier.
She rushed to open the door, impatient to show it to Christian and Nathan. Her smile looks genuine and sweet this time. “Thanks for the dress.”
Christian and Nathan looked at Ella at the same time.
Ella looks absolutely beautiful and graceful. With this pink dress, she looks much more charming and calm, not as seductive as usual.
Even though she didn’t wear any make up, she still looked very beautiful.
Unknowingly, Nathan gasped. However, he immediately covered his mouth upon realizing it. He didn’t want to make the evil woman proud any more than now.
Christian’s gaze is also fixed on Ella.
When he saw Ella like this, he recalled her charming and seductive figure when they first met at the hotel. It was an unforgettable experience for Christian
“It fits you well,” Christian said as he walked towards Ella.
Seeing Christian approach her, Ella was secretly nervous.
“Christian, do I look pretty?”
She asked spoiledly, but her feet took a step back to keep her distance from the man approaching her.
Somehow she could feel the change in Christian’s face.
It’s as if the man turned into a hunter who had found his prey.
“Hmm...” Christian replied in a low voice. He walked over to Ella and caught her by the wrist, not letting her further away from him.
“Uh... That... Christian, don’t be rash,” Ella gulped, feeling very panicked.
Her eyes fell on Christian, then his hand, then on Nathan’s face as the boy was watching them and back on Christian’s face which looked full of passion.
Finally, Nathan’s attitude towards her had changed a lot from the first time they met. And Ella didn’t want to just ruin her effort.
She still wanted to maintain a good image in front of the child.
Not knowing why, Ella felt a genuine feeling every time she was near Nathan, as if the feeling that came out of her heart was unbearable.
Maybe it was because his son was the same age as Nathan so all the attention she should have given to her son finally turned to Nathan.
Christian knows what Ella means. He turned to look at Nathan who was standing dumbfounded.
Nathan still couldn’t understand the situation. Why was his father holding Ella’s hand?
He looked at his father’s hand for a long time and then his gaze went up. When he saw his father’s cold eyes, he trembled.
He didn’t do anything wrong, did he?
“Dad, I’m going out first!”
His little fat feet were very agile as he ran to the door and rushed out.
Jason was standing at the door. “Young master.”
Nathan raised his head and looked at Jason with sadness on his face. “Uncle, why do you think my father wants me to come out?”
Jason stared at the closed door, not knowing how to tell Nathan the truth. “Maybe there’s something he should do.”
“Something...”
Nathan mumbled. He felt like something was wrong and asked again, “That old hag just changed clothes. Why did my dad suddenly want to do something? Uncle, do you know what my dad is going to do?”
“I don’t know,” Jason answered, having no other reason.
He couldn’t lie to a 5 year old, but he couldn’t tell the truth either.
In the CEO room, Ella looked at the man who was about to turn into a wolf with a nervous look.
“I...”
Before she could utter a single word, Christian silenced her with his lips.
His breath was full of passion, immediately enveloping Ella. Unknowingly, she returned the kiss and sank into it.
After a long time, Christian finally let go of her. Ella leaned in his arms as she caught her breath. “I kinda like Nathan.”
Christian’s eyebrows rose when he heard this. It was the first time he’d heard of another woman liking his naughty son. In fact, he had never heard anyone call his son by his direct name. But he didn’t mind if Ella did it.
“You want to approach Nathan to please me?” he asked.
Every word and every action of this woman in front of him had a purpose.
Christian wants to stay alert and careful. But every time Ella was around him, he felt defeated.
Ella immediately rolled her eyes. “This is the opportunity you gave me.” After that, she realized that this conversation was too personal. She hurriedly changed the subject. “Christian, what do you want to eat tonight?”
“You decide.”
Seeing the beautiful and sweet Ella, Christian’s mood turned better than before. Ella didn’t expect Christian to let her choose the menu for dinner.
“Are you expecting a surprise from me?”
