Although Ella didn’t really like this secretary, she still thought about etiquette and politeness so she greeted her briefly. Her greeting wasn’t overly cold, but it wasn’t friendly either.

However, what did Ella get in return?

Silence, and also a look of hatred.

Unknowingly, the secretary showed her feelings from her face and body movements, making Ella feel uncomfortable.

“Laras.” Christian called coldly.

From his current seat, he could feel hatred emanating from his secretary.

Laras immediately realized, trying to curb her hatred. With a gentle smile on her lips, she looked at Christian, “Sir, is there anything else you need?”

She asked, eyeing Christian closely.

.....

This man is so perfect. There is not a single woman in this world who does not want to be his lover.

Of the many women, she is one of them.

Perhaps of the many women, she is one who uses an elegant way to attract Christian’s attention.

She worked for this company for years, only to follow Christian. She hoped that by working in the same place, she could get Christian’s attention.

After Christian took over the company, Laras used her own abilities to become his secretary.

Christian also trusted her abilities and had never removed her from his side even though there were so many other women who were trying to win his heart.

Therefore, Laras felt she had a special place in Christian’s heart.

There were so many women around Christian, but not many who could be as close as her to him. There’s not much to catch Christian’s attention...

Ella is the only woman Christian brings into his company and can even enter his study.

This makes Laras feel danger!

She thinks about how to get Ella out of her way to get Christian. However, Christian’s voice suddenly rang in her ears. “Do you still have business here?”

Laras body stiffened and she glanced at Ella. Christian had not received the bag in her hand. She gave it to Christian, as if handing him something of great value. “Sir, this is the dress you wanted.”

She had worked for Christian long enough that she understood the man’s taste.

After realizing that Christian didn’t intend to take it right away, she placed the bag on the table and then walked out, closing the door to the room very carefully.

Ella studied the expression on Christian’s face carefully and felt her heart much calmer.

Laras is not a random woman. She is very cunning. And Ella is worried that Christian will be deceived by her. However, it seems that even a woman like Laras cannot make Christian’s heart melt.

Ella tilted her head. Her hand holds the magazine, but all her attention is on Christian.

Christian turned and his eyes met Ella’s. He looked like he was holding back a smile as he pointed at the bag on the table. “That’s your dress. Try it to see if it fits or not.”

Ella looked panicked when caught looking at Christian. She suddenly averted her gaze and nearly dropped the magazine in her lap.

The smile that Christian was holding back seemed to peek from the corner of his lips...

After placing the magazine she was holding on the sofa, Ella immediately walked over to Christian’s desk. She took the bag and opened it, finding a plain white dress.

Ever since she approached Christian, she had never worn clothes of this color.

The clothes seemed to remind her of bad memories in her life and that was the least thing she wanted to remember now.

Even though she tried to hide her feelings as best she could, her expression seemed to show a bit of pain. She deliberately buried her past in the depths of her heart, but sometimes the wound suddenly appeared without warning.

Subconsciously, she bit her lip a little too hard to feel the smell of blood in her nose.

She took a deep breath and tried to suppress her turbulent feelings. After that, she looks at Christian with a smile. “It seems your secretary has bad taste. A beautiful woman like me prefers to wear clothes in black to look sexy, or flashy colors to attract attention.”

Ella takes the shirt out of the bag and then asks Christian what he thinks. “Don’t you agree with me?”

Christian looks at Ella, not expecting his secretary to buy such a dress.

Seeing the bitter smile on Ella’s face, Christian immediately stands up and takes the shirt, setting it aside. “If you don’t like it, don’t use it.”

Ella’s eyes were still fixed on the shirt, as if dragged into her past memories. Unknowingly, she grabbed her own arm and rubbed it as if she felt cold. Without realizing it, she showed her fragility.

“Hmm...” She replied after quite a while.

She didn’t know if Laras knew about what had happened to her, about where she had lived for the last five years.

She didn’t know if Laras was doing this on purpose to hurt her.

Seeing Ella’s gaze still lingering on the dress, Christian immediately threw it on the floor. Looking at it one more time, Christian realized that the dress looked like a doctor’s robe.

“Laras didn’t know anything.” Christian said suddenly, as if he’s worried that Ella would misunderstand and be angry with him for this matter. He took Ella’s hand and said softly, “Only Jason and I know.”

Finally, Ella could only take her eyes off the dress and look at the man in front of her. She didn’t know what to say.

“It will not happen again.”

Seeing Ella remain silent, Christian finally took her in his arms. Ella could feel the warmth of Christian’s body temperature through the clothes they were wearing now.

It won’t happen again...

Those words seemed to echo over and over in Ella’s ears. Christian’s words were stuck in her mind.

“Thank you,” she said in a low voice.

Ella didn’t know if Christian was just trying to cheer her up or was actually promising that the past would never happen again. At this moment, she felt touched by a little kindness and care from Christian.

“No need to thank me,” Christian’s voice sounded displeased.

Ella nodded at that.

Right.

There was no need to thank him. After all, their relationship was solely based on mutual agreement and benefit.

Ella returned Christian’s hug and flashed her usual sweet smile. “I am happy.”

In an instant, she had turned into the usual Ella.

Meanwhile, Christian continued to hug her gently, holding her as if to share his warmth.

Meanwhile, his dark eyes looked as deep as a thick black ink.
