Chapter 36: Lunch with
Christian and Nathan sit together at the dining table to have lunch together.
When he saw the food that was served in front of him, Nathan felt a little disappointed. This is not the food he wants. He wants to eat steak!
But unfortunately, his father did not allow him to eat steak today.
The only food that caught his attention right now was fried chicken. Nathan finally decided to eat the fried chicken.
He didn’t mind eating anything as long as he could eat with his father. It had been a long time since he had seen and eaten with his father.
The company of his father was enough to make him happy.
He took the thigh of the fried chicken and ate it voraciously. After eating three pieces in a row, his mouth became even more oily. The crumbs from the chicken were still clinging to his cheeks, but he didn’t care at all.
.....
He was still not full and intended to take another piece.
As he reaches out his hand for some more fried chicken, Christian looks up at him.
“I... I’m still not full.” Nathan looked hesitant, wondering if he could still eat or not.
As soon as Christian nodded, Nathan immediately took the fried chicken thigh and started eating it voraciously.
But after a few bites, Nathan almost choked at the question that came out of his father’s mouth.
“You kicked out babysitter again?’
Christian puts down his spoon and fork, looking at his son who is still eating. His face looked serious, like he was talking to a coworker, not talking to a child.
“I ...” Nathan’s mouth was still full of chicken meat so the words that came out could not be heard clearly. “It’s very annoying.”
After saying that, Nathan lowered his head, looking like he felt guilty.
“Do you know why I brought you here?”
Christian won’t soften just because his son put on a pitiful expression. He knew very well the nature of his son.
Christian’s voice sounded serious, making Nathan tremble slightly. His chubby face was filled with anxiety. He could only shake his head in fear.
He did all this because he missed his father.
He didn’t need babysitter . What he needs is his father. But his father often went to work and he was bored at home alone.
His mischief is an expression of his longing for Christian.
However, he did not dare to say it directly.
“You’re always looking for excuses. How many babysitters have you kicked out?” Christian takes a deep breath when he sees his son who is silent.
Nathan still shook his head. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m
He never counted how many babysitters he threw out because he didn’t like all the women who took care of him. He just wanted to be by his father’s side. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om
As she thought about that, her tears unknowingly fell.
“I’m guilty...” he whispered.
“Hmm...” Christian replies. “Well that’s that then. Eat some more.”
Nathan just nodded silently. But at this moment, who still has the urge to eat? After trying to finish the food on his plate, Nathan immediately got up and ran to his room.
Christian’s hand stops for a moment as he watches his son leave.
He felt like he was really going crazy at this point. Why did he feel anxious when he didn’t see Ella with him?
The thought made him lose his appetite now. He got to his feet and walked to the window to call Jason.
“Boss...”
As soon as Jason’s voice was heard, Christian immediately asked in a low voice. “Is there something important going on at the company?”
Jason immediately felt confused by the question from his boss. Something important? What?
Could Christian be testing it?
Was there something going on at the company that Jason didn’t know about, but Christian knew?
Jason thought hard but he didn’t get the answer. Finally he asked, “Boss, I don’t understand what you mean.”
“I haven’t had time to finish the paperwork on my desk yet,” Christian begins.
Jason was still confused. He entered his boss room and saw Ella who filled his boss’s desk with food. He finds the document Christian was referring to neatly laid out on the side.
“Should I deliver it to you?” Jason asked.
“No need,” Christian stands by the window. The window height reached the ceiling, making the room look bright in the sun.
Christian is looking out the window, but he is not looking at the view. His thoughts were on the figure left in his company’s study. Christian’s slender body radiates from the window. Even though he was a boy, he looked elegant and charming, with an added arrogance, radiating from his aura.
...
In Christian’s study, Ella is quietly enjoying the food in front of her.
It’s true, being a Christian woman is very profitable for her. The proof alone, he can enjoy good food every day. Christian always provides delicious food for him.
At this moment, he was focused on enjoying his meal and not paying attention to Jason who was in the room as well.
After his food was finished, he lifted his head and looked at Jason who was looking serious.
Ella hears Jason say Christian’s name. Her eyes immediately lit up and she rushed over to Jason. When she heard that the two of them were discussing work matters, Ella didn’t dare to disturb her.
But after that, Jason stayed where he was for a very long time. He didn’t move at all and didn’t say anything, much to Ella’s confusion.
He asked in surprise. “Why are you and him silent?”
Jason shook his head, giving him a look that he didn’t understand what his boss was doing either.
On the other side, Christian remains silent. Jason also didn’t dare hang up the phone first. In the end, he just stands still, waiting for what Christian will say.
Jason even wondered if his boss had forgotten to hang up.
“What is Ella doing now?” Christian asks suddenly, taking the stiff-standing Jason by surprise.
“Miss Ella is beside me, seeing... I am talking to you.”
Christian’s body straightens up and he says quickly. “Tell him to send the documents to my house.”
After saying that, Christian hangs up immediately, without waiting for Jason’s answer.
Jason looked at his phone in bewilderment, still oblivious to what had just happened.
His boss called him to ask for documents.
When he offered to deliver, his boss refused.
After that, the boss was silent for quite a while, leaving him confused.
And then, his boss asked someone else to deliver the documents to his house.
What actually happened?
Jason was still trying to digest it all and looked at Ella blankly. “The boss asked you to send these documents to his house.”
“I?”
Ella pointed at herself, looking surprised. Isn’t Christian’s lover at his house right now? Why did Christian tell him to send the documents?
What if the two of them met?
