374 An Unexpected Cooperation
Ella turned towards the door when she heard a familiar ringing tone. It wasn’t her phone or Luca’s.
“Let’s go eat.” Christian is standing in front of the studio door with his cell phone in hand. He stood up straight and his head looked slightly raised, looking proud.
Ella narrowed her eyes and looked at Christian in annoyance. This man didn’t pick up her phone and suddenly appeared there.
Meanwhile, Luca who was on the side couldn’t help but smile at the sight of these two.
Many people say that Ella doesn’t deserve Christian. But according to him, only Ella can make a man as arrogant as Christian show different emotions than just a stoic face.
Only Ella could turn someone as cold as Christian soft and warm.
Only Ella could bring such an indifferent person as Christian to pay attention more.
Seeing Ella motionless, Christian approached her impatiently. He looked at the canvas in front of Ella and said, “You’ve been in the studio all day, but your painting progress is still like this?”
On the canvas, there are only rough sketches that are not clearly visible.
.....
Christian knows what’s bothering Ella right now. He reached out his hand to gently stroke her head. “You contacted me because of Liam’s problem, right?”
Ella was shy because Christian spoiled her in front of Luca. She wasn’t used to getting this kind of attention in front of other people. “Not his problem, but mine,” she answered in a low voice.
“Is Liam’s problem the same as yours?” Christian repeated it in a sinister tone. He looked at Ella with a sharp gaze. “Is he that important to you? Who is more important, me or him?”
Ella had already agreed to have a relationship with him. Why is this woman still thinking about other men?
Ella feels helpless as she listens to Christian’s question.
“You are more important.” If she dared to say otherwise, Christian would be furious.
After hearing that answer from Ella’s mouth, Christian’s expression softened a little.
“Come and eat with me.”
Ella shook her head. How could she possibly eat in peace now?
“What do you think Indri is planning?” She asked Christian.
“What do you think?” Christian threw the question back at Ella instead. His eyebrows rose as he looked at Ella with a surprised look.
Sometimes, this woman is so smart that it blows him away. But some other times, this woman can also be so oblivious.
“If I had known, I wouldn’t have asked you,” Ella said, looking at Christian in annoyance. Why is this man always throwing the question back at her?
“Are you stupid?” Christian’s hand that was stroking Ella’s head stopped moving. He turned to Luca and asked, “If you wanted to meet a woman every day and keep in touch with her, what would that mean?”
Luca felt helpless at being involved in this conversation all of a sudden. He didn’t want to interfere, but he couldn’t just ignore Christian’s question either. Finally, he answered honestly, “It means I like her.”
“Did you hear that?” Christian tapped Ella’s forehead gently. “There’s no need to worry about the woman chasing Liam.”
After saying that, he grabbed Ella’s arm and led her to stand up. He took her tiny hand and wanted to ask her out. “Liam’s family has urged him to get married. Indri wants to marry him. Wouldn’t that benefit all parties?”
If that really happened, Liam would definitely suffer a lot.
But Christian feels no sympathy at all. Who told a man to want a woman?
Ella doesn’t understand what Christian means. But she could see from Christian’s demeanor that he felt this matter was completely unimportant. “What does it mean to benefit all parties?”
“To the benefit of all…” Christian turns and looks at Ella’s face, making Ella’s heart beat faster.
The man brought his lips to Ella’s ear and continued, “He will get a wife and my love rival will be reduced by one.”
The hoarse voice made Ella speechless. Her face flushes red when she feels Christian’s warm breath on her neck.
Christian swallowed his saliva when he saw Ella’s cute face. This woman is really like a flower that blooms beautifully.
He really wanted this woman, right now. But unfortunately, the timing wasn’t right.
Luca felt very embarrassed and uncomfortable. This was his studio, but why did it feel like this room belonged to Christian and Ella?
Can’t they make out somewhere else? This affects him as well as his business!
Christian takes a deep breath and looks around him. He took a good look at the studio and said, “This place is too small.”
There was no place for him to make love to Ella right now.
“Christian!”
How could Ella not understand Christian’s intentions? This man’s mind is so dirty!
Looking at the blush on Ella’s cheeks made Christian smile happily. He put his arm around Ella’s shoulders and led her out of the room. “Let’s go eat. What do you want to eat?”
In just a second, Christian had turned into a gentle and caring man.
Ella could only look at him in surprise. She followed Christian to his car which was parked outside. On the way, she remembered the first question that had bothered her.
Christian didn’t take her seriously just now!
“What is the real purpose of Indri wanting to marry Liam?” Ella is sure that Indri doesn’t really want Liam.
Just a moment ago, Indri was so infatuated with Haikal. But in no time, she changed her target to Liam.
Christian gets annoyed every time he hears Liam’s name from Ella’s mouth. “Haikal has kicked her out. The best option for her right now is to marry Liam. More importantly, by getting Liam, she thinks she can outdo you in everything.”
Ella nodded a few times when she heard Christian’s answer. His explanation makes a lot of sense.
“Then, wouldn’t that be dangerous for Liam?”
“What’s dangerous? He is a grown man.”
Christian took Ella’s hand and led her into the car.
Not long after Ella left the studio, several handymen suddenly came into the studio and kicked Luca out.
Luca could only stand in front of his studio while still carrying his painting brush with a confused look.
From the look of it, Luca knew that these people were Christian’s men. He didn’t understand why these people had suddenly come there.
But Luca couldn’t do anything, he could only stand in his place looking at his studio in a daze.
…
In the evening, Liam got a call from his family.
His family got a call about a pretty important co-worker in town, which could make their business grow. Therefore, Liam’s parents told him to meet the person tomorrow.
Liam’s secretary immediately gave Liam a document regarding the cooperation plan.
Liam opened the document and immediately frowned when he saw the name of the company.
Soetanto Company.
Nadia Soetanto? What did this woman want?
“Liam, this is an excellent opportunity for our family. We have to make good use of it!”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
