Chapter 39

39 Slightly Late

“Fat boy, did you... ever hit your head?”

“Not!”

Over time, Nathan felt annoyed. He tried his best to intimidate Ella, but she didn’t care at all.

He had been glaring at Ella, trying to make her angry, trying to embarrass her, but nothing had worked.

He was getting no response at all.

This was the first time the butler had seen his young master feel defeated. He couldn’t help but stare at Ella.

Nathan had just arrived at this house today, but he had already caused a lot of trouble.

Since no one dared to rebuke him, he always did what he wanted, especially when his father wasn’t home.

The servants in this house are afraid of being fired by Christian so they just keep quiet.

.....

However, staying silent would not make Nathan’s attitude any better.

The butler felt that it wouldn’t hurt if Nathan felt the feeling of losing once in a while. It’s not good for small children to be pampered too much.

If you are too pampered, over time his bad attitude will become a habit.

He is not afraid of anyone. He thought he could be rude to anyone.

As the butler thought in silence, Nathan tugged at the hem of his shirt to get his attention. “Butler, are you going to let this woman insult me?”

The butler felt like crying. Why should he be involved in this commotion?

The butler looked confused and finally rebuked Ella, though not too harshly. “Miss, please pay attention to your words.”

Ella nodded. From the way the maid addressed her, she could tell that the butler was trying to be as polite as possible. But the butler couldn’t go against Nathan’s words either.

After that, Ella said once again. “Christian asked me to send this document.”

The butler looked at Ella and at the document she was holding, considering whether this woman really wanted to send the document.

Never once did his master ask a woman to send documents. Usually, Jason was the one who delivered the documents to his house.

But today, suddenly this woman came. As a butler, he also felt uncomfortable letting strangers in.

But when he saw Ella’s polite demeanor, unlike a woman who tried to approach Christian, in the end, she opened the door. “Please come in, Miss.”

Nathan was about to stop him, but the butler had already opened the door and let Ella in.

Nathan was so angry that he could only stomp his feet in annoyance and ran into the house.

“Thank You.”

“You’re welcome,” the butler was very kind to Ella. “Master is in the living room.”

Ella nodded. When she notices that the butler isn’t moving, Ella decides to walk past him and head straight into Christian’s house.

He had only walked a few steps when the butler’s voice was heard. “Miss, you have angered Young Master. He must be pissed off right now and he’s probably going to do something pretty extreme.”

Remembering Nathan told him to eat ten bowls of meatballs, the butler was worried that the same thing would happen to Ella so he warned him.

“Thank you for reminding.”

Ella smiled at the butler before entering Christian’s house.

He was not afraid of the fat boy.

After all, children are children. Nathan might have been a naughty boy, but Ella knew that didn’t mean the boy had a bad heart.

He already knows the real evil heart...

Besides, he doesn’t work for Christian. He didn’t need to care about Nathan like the servants in this house.

The door of the house was open. Due to Nathan’s arrival today, there were more servants in the house than before.

Two bodyguards dressed in all black stood in front of the house. They were so creepy that it made Ella curl up a little.

But since the butler had already allowed him to enter, there was nothing to stop him. On the contrary, everyone was very polite to him.

After passing through the door, Ella headed straight for the living room. Suddenly, he felt like he was in a museum.

He looked at the vase closest to him. Before he lived in a mental hospital, he often participated in social events such as auctions and so on. He still remembers that this vase was sold for 1 billion.

Actually, the original price was only around 400 million. But a mysterious buyer liked it so much that he immediately bought it for 1 billion.

Turns out, the mysterious buyer at that time was Christian.

Ella felt even more nervous as she entered the house, worried that she might break something. Finally, his gaze fell on the man who was leisurely reading the newspaper on the sofa.

Christian is still wearing his work coat. But now he looked more relaxed than usual.

Maybe because he wasn’t in the office. The atmosphere of the house makes it look much warmer. Currently he is not a cold CEO.

Ella didn’t hesitate anymore. He immediately walked over to Christian and said politely. “This is the document you wanted.”

Ella’s unusual tone of voice made Christian’s hands stop moving. Usually, Ella would talk to him in a sweet and spoiled tone.

But this time it sounded like he was putting some distance between them.

And somehow, Christian doesn’t like it...

He slowly lifts his head and looks at the woman standing beside him.

He was still wondering when this woman would arrive at his house. But he didn’t expect that Ella would suddenly appear there.

“Christian?” Ella calls out to her once more as Christian just stares at her blankly.

Christian’s consciousness returns. Since being with this woman, he felt himself changing and that annoyed him. But he didn’t show it. He kept a flat expression. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

“Finally coming?”

It seems Christian is annoyed that Ella is late.

Ella couldn’t do anything either. He had arrived long ago, but Nathan stopped him. At the thought of the naughty Nathan, Ella felt a little irritated. But he can only restrain himself because he doesn’t want to make Christian even more angry. He smiled and said. “I’m a little late. Forgive me.”

“Hmm...”

Christian looks at Ella’s tiny hands. His hand immediately reached out to hold it, as if to give it warmth.

No matter how calm Ella was, when Christian treated her gently like this, she would always blush.

“Shy?”

Christian looks like he’s found something funny. A faint smile appeared on his lips.

Ella wanted to find a hole and bury herself. In this house there are so many people and they are all not blind!

Should Christian treat her like this in front of everyone?

While thinking about it, Ella lowered her head even more deeply.
