Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

120 Unable to Receive Gifts

“Isn’t that so, mom?” Indri can’t face Christian alone so she asks her mother for help.

Meanwhile, Merry’s face looks unsightly because she was suddenly involved.

Her eyes were not on Indri who was asking her for help, but on Ella.

She didn’t expect a bitch like Ella to be so lucky to get Christian’s attention.

Merry herself had heard various kinds of news about Christian. This man never let anyone near her.

Plus, he already had a son who was like a little demon so not a single woman could get close to him.

If she had known things would turn out like this, maybe she really should have killed Ella in the first place.

She thought that by making Ella suffer, Ella would give up on her own and take her own life. But who would have thought she would come back and get them all in trouble.

She understood the current situation and knew that she couldn’t fight Ella right now. Finally, she answered, “Yes, Ella and Indri have had a very good relationship since childhood.”

.....

“I have to thank my sister for loving me so much.” Ella looked at the two women in front of her sarcastically.

It’s true that they used to be close, but it seemed like only Ella felt that way. She was willing to give anything to Indri even though Indri was only her half-sister.

Now, looking back on it, she found it all very ironic.

Ella already knew that there was no point in treating Indri and Merry sincerely. Things had changed.

If Ella asked Indri to return everything she had given to her, of course she would get a lot of money, right?

At that thought, the corners of Ella’s lips curved. “Remember to take good care of what I gave you. One day, I’ll ask them back.”

“Why do you want something that you have already given?”

Indri did not expect Ella to discuss this matter so she was instantly provoked.

All she asked of Ella was expensive things. If Ella asked her to return them back, she would be at a great loss.

“Indri,” Merry frowned as she looked at her daughter.

Indri’s current appearance was so ridiculous that there were several people laughing secretly around her.

The laughter was mixed with sarcasm and a look of contempt, making the expression on Merry’s face become unsightly again.

She had tried to teach her daughter etiquette, but it seemed everything was useless.

Seeing Ella standing majestically and facing them calmly, Merry felt the fire of hatred start to burn in her heart.

However, she still maintained a gentle smile on her face as she said, “Indri, all of that belongs to your sister from the start, right? Please don’t forget to return it to her later.”

“I don’t want to!” Indra’s eyes widened. “She is not a member of the Maheswara Family anymore. Why does she still want our family’s belongings?!”

Christian felt his patience running out as he listened to their bickering. His brow furrowed sharply.

He looked at the woman beside him, but as usual, Ella kept her feelings and thoughts hidden.

Christian didn’t know whether Ella really wanted any of her belongings to be returned or not.

“Do you really want them returned?”

Christian leaned closer to Ella and asked in a low voice.

Ella didn’t expect Christian to ask her opinion. After that, she immediately nodded. “Those things are very expensive.”

Ella had never cared about these things before. After all, she was never short of money.

But now everything was different.

Christian looked at Ella in surprise and then hugged her waist tightly. “If you act like this, other people will think that I’m bullying you.”

“Isn’t that so?”

It was rare to see Ella dare to defend herself in front of Christian.

The agreement between them was written very clearly. Christian would never provide financial assistance to Ella.

Even though she worked as a babysitter at Christian’s house, Ella didn’t know if she would get her salary.

Plus, her salary had been cut in half by Christian.

At the thought of this, Ella became more and more frustrated and her desire for earning more money only grew bigger.

Christian looked at Ella’s appearance with an amused expression. It was rare for him to see his woman behaving like this. He ignored the mother and daughter who were arguing in front of him and said, “Tell me what I did to bully you. Don’t say that it’s your fault, you know the consequences are.”

Ella immediately curled up and tried to get away from Christian.

A smile immediately appears on her face as she looks at Christian, only to realize that she slipped and irritated Christian even more. “I was wrong just now. How can you oppress other people? I just misspoke. You want to forgive me, right?”

Ella looked at Christian with an innocent wink, making the man want to laugh.

However, he just hugged Ella’s waist tighter and whispered in her ear, “I really want you now.”

That statement made Ella’s face turn red.

That reaction was very clear in Christian’s eyes, making him feel very satisfied.

He pulled Ella’s body and led her to one of the displays. “Which one do you like?”

“I can’t take it,” Ella waved her hand.

The more Christian acted like this, the more frightened Ella became. She didn’t know if this was a trap or not.

“This is a gift.”

Christian’s gaze fell on a piece of jewelry and he said casually, “You didn’t hide anything about that man this morning.”

“Which man?” Ella looked confused.

“The man who asked the way,” that one simple answer made Ella feel like she had been struck by lightning.

If she was afraid before, now she was panicking.

The man Christian was referring to this morning was Liam.

“Christian, I’m already happy that you’re happy. I cannot accept this gift.”

Ella looked even more panicked. She could imagine that Christian would set a big trap in the form of this expensive gift and then he would punish her severely.

She could take any punishment, but she didn’t want to involve Liam in her troubles.

Ella and Liam did not have any kind of relationship and would never have a relationship in the future. But Liam was still an important figure in her life and she didn’t want to involve him in this complicated matter.

Christian looked into Ella’s face with a deep gaze. “You really don’t want these?”

If this woman wanted all the things she gave her sister, of course she would also like the jewelry in this shop, right?

Ella opened her mouth, but she didn’t know how to explain it.

She looked doubtful.

In the midst of her doubts, a man entered the shop.

“This shop is very crowded, huh!”
