268 Big Brother
In the small restaurant, next to the restaurant where Christian and Nadia are, Ella and Luca are eating together. “Thank you for accepting me to work in your studio.”
“No need to be so polite to me.” Luca raised his glass and drank the beer they ordered.
Ella drank the same beer too, but only half of it gave her a headache. She felt so happy today that she let herself drink once for a while.
Her eyes sparkled as if emitting starlight in the sky.
Around her, there are so many men who are interested in her and want to get acquainted with her. But since Luca was with Ella’s, they decided to cancel their intention.
“Shall we go home?” Luca was a little confused seeing Ella’s current situation.
It was the first time he had come across such a unique drinking habit. When drunk, Ella can make everyone fascinated with her.
Ella nodded while listening to Luca’s question. “Let’s go home. I’m tired,” she said with a smile.
Luca helped her up and they came out together. He shook his head with confusion in his heart. “If I had a sister like you, I would be dizzy from having to take care of you all the time.”
.....
“Big brother!” Suddenly, Ella changed the way she called Luca.
Luca who heard the call immediately patted Ella’s forehead quite hard. “You, how can you joke at a time like this. I’m serious!”
“I don’t care. From now on, I will think of you as my brother. You must always take care of me!” Ella said. After that, her voice grew quieter. “I am old, but I have no family. I don’t have anyone to look after me.”
Ever since, Ella has been jealous of her friends who have older brothers. She also wants to have a brother who loves her.
Every now and then, Ella imagines that if she had an older brother in the Maheswara Family, perhaps his older brother would help her and save her from her misery.
“Okay. It’s up to you.” Luca took a deep breath.
It was rare for Luca to find someone who had a way of thinking and a way of looking at life that matched his. In addition, Luca also likes Ella’s character.
He was happy to meet a friend like Ella in this life..
Ella smiled stupidly when Luca didn’t refuse her request. It was only today that Ella felt that she was not alone after leaving Christian’s house.
...
Christian and Nadia leave the restaurant, just as the night gets busier.
There is impatience on Christian’s face, while Nadia hugs his arm with great joy. She keeps talking and tries to drag Christian into a conversation that doesn’t interest him at all.
“Tian, ??have you ever thought about what kind of wife you want to spend your life with?” Nadia asks Christian, tilting her head. She looked genuinely curious.
“A woman with a bad temper and a low IQ,” Christian replied irritably. Every question Nadia asked made him feel even more annoyed.
Is dating a woman this boring?
When he gets married later, he doesn’t want to have a boring wife like Nadia. At this moment, he thought back to Ella. Chatting with Ella is fun for Christian. Even though he didn’t talk to her often, at least what Ella said always caught his attention. Ella also tried to avoid topics Christian didn’t like.
Christian’s answer made Nadia frown. “I’ve heard that you like women who are good at housework, and can also bring profits to your company,” she said.
She was not sure that the news circulating was fake.
Otherwise, why would she try 10 times harder than everyone else?
“I have a lot of maids at home,” Christian looked at Nadia with displeasure. “And do you think I am the man who would tell my wife to work hard?”
Nadia was silent for a moment. “That’s not what I mean!”
Right now, Nadia was really feeling angry.
Why is everything wrong? She’d been looking for information about Christian and she knew very well that the type of woman Christian liked was a woman like her!
“No need to meddle in my personal affairs,” Christian resisted the urge to pull his arm back from Nadia’s embrace.
‘Damn it, why haven’t the journalists left yet?’
Christian felt that his previously trained patience had crumbled since Ella’s arrival in his life.
Besides, apart from Ella, when had he ever been this close to another woman?
Just look at this woman, so disgusting.
“Tian, ??how can you say that? We are friends. Of course I would worry about you,” Nadia looked sympathetic towards him.
Everything Nadia did was so perfect that it made Christian feel bored.
Perfection was just a pretense.
“What are you doing?”
Not far away, there was the sound of fighting. A man was dragging a woman, as if forcing her to come with him.
It wasn’t the fight itself that made Christian stop walking and look at them. But because the woman somewhat looked like Ella.
Christian almost thought that Ella had appeared before him all of a sudden.
His body was already moving before his brain could even digest the situation.
That woman is Ella! That woman must be Ella!
Christian swings his arm, releasing Nadia’s hands that are still wrapped around, and walks in that direction quickly. He grabbed the woman’s wrist and pulled her away.
“Isabella!” Christian called in a low voice.
However, his heart immediately sank when he saw the woman’s face clearly.
That woman isn’t Ella...
Ella is still missing and can’t be found.
Christian didn’t want to keep his promise to Ella. He wanted to find Ella and bring her back to his house. From the beginning, all he wanted was Ella.
The woman turned in bewilderment as she looked at Christian. “Pardon?”
“Sorry. This is my lover. He heard a fight between you two and was trying to break up.” Nadia ran over to Christian and took his arm once more.
As soon as the woman saw Nadia, she immediately felt embarrassed. The woman in front of her was perfect, as was the man beside her. The two of them really made a perfect couple, making anyone feel inferior.
She immediately swerved away, leaving Christian and Nadia alone.
“Tian, ??what’s wrong with you?” Nadia tried to suppress her irritation and asked patiently.
Even though Christian said it in a low voice, Nadia could clearly hear Christian calling Ella’s name.
Nadia didn’t expect that even though Ella had already left, that woman still hadn’t disappeared from Christian’s heart.
Nadia felt very angry when she found out about this. How long will that woman dominate Christian’s heart!
Apparently, Nadia should not be too passive. She had to try harder.
A cruel glint appeared in her eyes as she began to plan what she must do to win Christian’s heart.
Meanwhile, Ella was standing in a corner of the street, looking at the man and woman arm in arm.
She didn’t think she would see Christian again. And she didn’t expect she’d see Christian in this situation.
