287 Coming Only for Ella
“So you’re here.”
Liam’s arrival was completely unexpected by Ella. She didn’t even tell Liam where she was going.
The man’s arrival was not much different from Christian’s. As soon as he appeared, almost all the women immediately looked at him. Maybe they were all amazed by Liam’s good looks.
Nathan who was once again the center of everyone’s attention was annoyed.
What annoyed him even more was the man who had come before him. He finally had the chance to meet Ella and spend some time alone with her. Why were there so many people trying to mess up their time together?
This man in front of him was the most annoying.
He could clearly see that this man liked Ella and wanted to take her away from him. He was sure this man would separate him from Ella.
Nathan felt he wasn’t that far behind compared to Liam. From his appearance he was also no less handsome. He was also rich. However, he’s not as tall as Liam because he hadn’t grown yet.
Even though he will also get taller one day, now he still loses to Liam. This made him feel sad.
.....
At this time, Ella woke up from her shock when she saw Liam’s arrival. “Why are you here?” The meaning behind the question was, how could Liam know they were here?
Since she was dealing with Liam, Ella didn’t have to hesitate to ask.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLiam also understood what Ella was thinking and he didn’t mind at all. He raised his hand in surrender and said helplessly, “I’m innocent. I didn’t do anything illegal. I’m here to meet someone and discuss work matters. As I was passing by this mall, I happened to see the two of you. I immediately parked my car, but both of you disappeared. So, I’ve been looking for you all over the place.
“Come on, sit down. Let’s eat together.” Ella patted the cushion beside her.
She wasn’t worried about herself. But Nathan had a special identity. If Christian suddenly became suspicious and thought that Liam was following his son, that would be a big problem.
Seeing Liam sitting down without his consent, Nathan’s mood worsened.
It’s his time to be alone with Ella. Why would Liam come and join in, spoiling the fun?!
He puffed out his cheeks in annoyance and said, “My appetite is gone because this guy came!”
Ella was surprised to see Nathan suddenly sulking. What happened to Nathan all of a sudden?
Liam doesn’t mind. He looked at Nathan and said, “I can help you grill the meat.”
Nathan was only 5 years old, so he didn’t mind his childish behavior. It is appropriate for a child to act like this. As if he could tell what Liam was thinking, Nathan immediately said with a serious look, “Don’t think that I’m a kid. I’m a man too.”
Maybe because of Christian’s nature and because he doesn’t have a mother, Nathan feels that his responsibility is bigger than other children his age.
However, he could not cook meat on the grill in front of him. He’s still too young for that.
But Liam can do it. He grilled the meat that Ella took until it turned brown. The sweet smell of it made Nathan almost drool.
Ella accepted the meat and immediately put it in her mouth. Seeing Ella’s face while she enjoyed the meat happily, Liam immediately asked, “How is it? Does it taste good?”
Ella nodded and gave Liam a thumbs up. “I didn’t think you could grill meat.”
Ella was really surprised. In her eyes, Liam is a young master from a rich family who is pampered and never works. But Liam doesn’t have bad habits like slacking off at work. And Liam was so gentle and warm, never arrogant.
“Is it weird that I can cook?” His gaze fell on Ella.
There was a glint that appeared there, though it only shone for a moment. After that, his eyes seemed to dim again.
After a moment of silence, he continued, “I learned to cook for you while I was studying abroad.”
At that time, Liam learned a lot. He thought he could go home and surprise Ella later, making her feel in awe of him. But what Liam did not expect, once he returned to Indonesia, the situation was not as he imagined.
Ella’s hand that was holding her fork immediately stopped moving.
“Thank you,” said Ella briefly.
Ella will never be able to repay all that Liam did to her, but Ella feels very grateful to have Liam in her life.
Liam didn’t expect to hear a thank you from Ella. He was surprised, but also happy that he immediately smiled.
At least Ella wasn’t trying to get away from him. She also did not throw him out and instead asked him to eat together.
Nathan couldn’t hold himself back anymore. When he saw the meat that was cooked and glistening with the sauce, he immediately ate it voraciously.
By now, he had forgotten his previous words.
Watching Nathan who returned to eating voraciously, the expression on Ella’s face softened.
“Old woman, why don’t you eat? Why are you even daydreaming?” When Nathan raised his head, he saw Ella looking at him pensively. He immediately took a piece of meat and placed it on Ella’s plate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter that, Ella heard Nathan say, “This way, he won’t be able to eat.”
What he meant was of course Liam.
Nathan said it with a haughty expression on his face. It’s Liam’s fault for trying to snatch the old woman away from him. He must pay the price!
Ella could only look at Nathan helplessly.
“Uncle Liam helped grill the meat for you. You should thank him.”
The previous incident was still fresh in Ella’s memory. Nadia knew very well what Nathan’s weaknesses were and used them to make Christian feel displeased with his son’s attitude.
She used the opportunity to create a good image for herself in front of Christian.
Apparently, Ella had to teach Nathan etiquette so that Nadia couldn’t do something like this next time.
Nathan immediately frowned upon hearing Ella’s words.
How could he possibly thank Liam? But he also couldn’t refuse Ella’s request.
Finally, he didn’t dare look into Ella’s eyes and thanked Liam awkwardly.
Liam continued to smile gently, not minding Nathan’s rudeness.
“You’re welcome,” he replied.
Suddenly, Nathan snorted and said, “I did it because the old woman told me to. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have done it.”
“I know,” Liam nodded nonchalantly. He also didn’t mind Nathan not apologizing. Of course he knew that without Ella, Nathan would never be polite to him.
But Liam didn’t mind. He also did not intend to get closer to Nathan.
He was here only for Ella.
