Then, why did it suddenly become like this?

“What happened?” Haikal asked in a cold voice.

The secretary on the other end of the phone was also surprised to hear his boss’ voice.

“Sir, I don’t know for sure but just now, an investor called and said that he wanted to cancel his cooperation contract...”

“Does he not care if he has to pay compensation?” Haikal clutched his cell phone. His brow furrowed deeply.

He really expected this project to run smoothly. Whoever wanted to cancel the contract would have to pay a huge fine.

The secretary thought for a long time and finally realized what he had missed, “The investor mentioned Mr. Christian’s name.”

“Christian?” Haikal’s eyes immediately darkened hearing that.

.....

Is it true that all of this is because of Ella? Did Christian really want to thwart his project just for that woman?

“I’ll be back now,” as soon as he said it, Haikal immediately hung up the phone.

At that moment, Ella quietly looked at the man beside her from her seat.

Christian’s face looked indifferent, but his aura was so cold that it made no one dare to approach him.

It’s the same as when Ella first met Christian.

Ella rested her head on Christian’s shoulder and said with a smile, “What are your plans for Haikal? You’re really going to teach him a lesson, huh?”

“Haikal? The way you say his name sounds very affectionate.” Christian snorted coldly. He glanced briefly at Ella and focused his attention on the road in front of him.

Ella could only be silent.

Where did it come from? She only called Haikal’s name by his usual name. In a way, every time she said that name, Ella felt disgusted and angry.

However, she did not dare to seek trouble with Christian. She tried to find another topic and talk to him.

As she remembered what Christian did for her, Ella’s heart suddenly beat fast.

She raised her hand and stroked her throbbing chest.

Did this mean Ella was starting to feel something for Christian that her heart was racing? But sadly, Christian was not her final destination.

She just needed this man for now. Likewise, Christian was attracted to her body, something that could only last temporarily.

“Thank you,” Ella said with a faint smile.

When Christian looked at Ella, Ella was no longer looking at him. Her gaze was fixed on the scene outside.

When she was looking out the window, Ella looked very beautiful in Christian’s eyes.

His strong grip on the steering wheel slowly loosened.

“Explain what happened between you and Haikal,” the sudden request made Ella turn her head.

Christian took her to meet with Haikal. Did that mean Christian was trying to trust her?

“Explain it,” Christian urged her once again, looking impatient.

He did not like his heart to be constantly disturbed because of this woman. Only this woman could make him lose his cool and control over his own emotions.

He never thought that he would be so angry when he saw Haikal’s message on Ella’s cell phone. He also didn’t know why he brought this crazy woman to meet her ex-lover.

“I and Haikal...”

Ella moistened her lips and said doubtfully, “I once loved him but he betrayed me. He couldn’t accept it and wanted me to return to him, to be his mistress. I...”

Suddenly the loud sound of the tires from the brake made Ella very shocked. She immediately grabbed her seatbelt tightly, afraid that her body would bounce forward.

Luckily, the seat belt was able to hold her up.

Has Christian gone mad?

“Hey...” Christian’s somber voice rang in Ella’s ears, along with screams and cursing from people outside for their sudden stop.

Ella looked where the voice came from and felt anxious, afraid that someone would scold them. But Christian forced her to look his way.

“Did you listen carefully to me?”

“Yeah, I did,” Ella nodded quickly.

She didn’t want to get into trouble with this man anymore. She’d better agree with everything Christian said.

Christian’s eyes narrowed, looking displeased with Ella’s half-hearted response.

“I swear I did,” Ella took a deep breath and raised her hand.

What was this crazy man doing in the middle of the road? Why did he suddenly stop?

Was he going to leave her alone in the middle of the road and tell her to go home on foot?

She took advantage of this silence and said, “Christian, stopping here will cause traffic jams. We’d better go home first.”

Ella raised her hand to hold Christian’s hand. “I really have nothing to do with Haikal. Now, there is only you in my eyes.”

The next sentence made Christian finally feel relieved.

Christian let go of Ella’s chin and continued their journey in heading back toward his house.

Ella was also relieved that Christian wouldn’t kick her halfway.

The closer they got to Christian’s house, the more Ella realized she had made a big mistake.

She was so busy making Christian happy that she forgot her mother’s house was still in Haikal’s hands. It seemed, it would be very difficult to get the house back.

Normally, Ella would only say a few things to provoke Haikal’s anger. But Christian’s sudden appearance must have made Haikal angry.

Plus, Ella still didn’t know what lesson Christian would teach Haikal.

Ella was still deep in thought until their car pulled up in front of the house.

Christian’s gaze was fixed on Ella, showing displeasure. “Are you thinking of Haikal?”

Ella rolled her eyes in annoyance. “Could you not say his name in front of me?”

Ella really hated Haikal. And now she hated Haikal even more because Christian kept mentioning his name.

She’s fed up.

With a cold snort, Christian opened his car’s door and got out. After Christian closed the door, Ella immediately stuck out her tongue in annoyance at him.

But she only dared to do it behind his back.

After that, she also got out of the car and followed Christian. “If I can be a good girl, can you give me the house as a present?”

“No,” Christian refused coldly.

However, Ella did not want to give up. “Then you can give it to me later.”

“I won’t give you a house.”

Christian stopped walking and looked at Ella intently. “So what? You can’t stand being next to me? Do you want to run away now?”

Christian looked at Ella scornfully.

Look at this woman. It only took a moment for her true nature to come out.

All women who tried to approach him always had a certain goal in mind. And this woman was asking for something she shouldn’t have asked.

Perhaps because Christian’s gaze was too sharp, Ella felt her figure shrink even more. She said in a low voice, “The house is very important to me.”
