101 Lying
There are times when you try to avoid someone but then destiny brings you closer to that person on purpose.
Maybe that’s how Ella is feeling right now.
She saw a figure that was about 5 meters away from her, only separated by a glass window. Her good mood instantly shattered.
Previously, she wanted to find lunch, but now her appetite had disappeared.
Ella could see Laras’ expression clearly.
Maybe she had been obsessed with Christian for years. When she looked at Christian, Laras’ face was full of admiration and her eyes seemed to glow with stars.
Silently, Ella pursed her lips in annoyance. Did Christian like a woman like her? Would he let this kind of woman be by his side?
Right now, Christian was standing with his back to Ella so Ella couldn’t see the man’s expression. She didn’t know what Laras was saying to him so excitedly.
Because of Haikal, Christian hated her now. No one could support her at this time and Ella didn’t want to get into trouble with Laras.
.....
As she was about to leave quietly, Laras raised her hand and pointed at her. At the same time, Christian also turned around.
Today, Ella was wearing a knee-length pink skirt. Her clothes looked neater than usual, but it still couldn’t hide her sexiness.
She stood where she was holding her bag, looking at the two people who were looking at her questioningly.
Christian looked at Ella intently, as if he wanted to devour her alive.
Even from far away, Ella could still feel the cold aura emanating from Christian.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLaras stood beside him with a happy face, as if waiting for a very interesting show.
Ella finally realized. The conversation between Laras and Christian just now was most likely about her. It’s just that Ella couldn’t think of what Laras had said to Christian.
As she thought about it, Christian was already walking towards her quickly, followed by Laras behind him.
A smile appeared on Laras’ face, as if she had already managed to get what she wanted.
When Ella woke up and lifted her head, Christian was already standing in front of her.
Christian was looking at her with a look full of anger, a look that Ella had always seen for the past few days.
“Are you sure I can’t live without you?” That cold voice made the smile on Ella’s face instantly disappear.
Did he just say that he could live without her? Of course it’s possible.
Ella knew full well that she was at a disadvantage, while Christian could do anything to her.
Before Ella could think further, Christian had pulled her hand away. Ella frowned at the sight of the man’s hand gripping her wrist hard.
It’s always been like this...
Christian never listened to her explanations.
“Ella, you seem to think too highly of yourself,” after saying that, Christian’s strength increased.
Ella looked into Christian’s eyes and said, “I don’t know what I did wrong to make you like this. What’s my fault?”
Since when did Ella think too highly of herself? She had always humbled herself in front of Christian, trying to do whatever it took to please him.
So, what crime did she commit now?
“Do you seriously not know?” Christian sneered.
His gaze fell on Ella’s face and his lips pursed. “I have to acknowledge your ability in seducing men.”
Laras stood beside Christian looking both happy and angry.
Why didn’t Christian just kick out this woman? He needed to throw this woman away!
If this continued, Ella would find an excuse to justify her action, right?
After thinking about it, Laras made up her mind. She looked at Ella fiercely and said, “Mr Christian treats you very well, but you are having an affair behind his back.”
After that, she took out her cell phone and showed her the photo she took earlier. “I saw you talking to Mister Haikal. Your smile looked so happy.”
When Ella saw the photo, she clenched her fists tightly.
Looks like she underestimated Laras too much. She did not expect that Laras was this cunning.
“If you listen well, you should know how I humiliated Haikal. I’ve never been nice to him.”
Ella looked at Laras calmly. She was really angry right now, but she tried to remain indifferent.
“I was too shocked at that time. After taking the photo, I immediately left so I didn’t hear your conversation.”
Laras looked at Ella with a fake regretful look. “I thought you were a simple and kind woman. But it turns out... It turns out that I got to witness something like this today...”
“Are you kidding me?” Ella looked at her disdainfully. “Do you think I am that cheap? Is there something wrong with your eyes? If you don’t feel well, quickly take your medicine.”
“What’s the point of arguing with me?”
Laras flashed a haughty smile. “I’m just saying what I think. It’s fine if you don’t agree.”
After that, Laras looked at Christian. “Sir, I think she has other intentions when approaching you. Who knows if she will use this opportunity to reveal the company’s secrets to others.”
Christian kept looking at Ella, not seeing Laras face when he heard her speak, as if he was trying to find out the truth of Laras’ words in Ella’s eyes. He let go of his hand that was holding Ella and said, “Your cell phone.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChristian wanted to see how much time Ella spent talking to Haikal.
Ella immediately felt disappointed.
It was true, Laras knew Christian so well that she knew how Christian would react.
Christian wouldn’t listen to her explanation. He just wanted to see the evidence from her cell phone.
The cell phone in Ella’s bag felt very heavy now. Her heart felt cold.
Again, Christian didn’t believe her.
However, a second later, Ella laughed at herself. When did Christian ever believe her?
Ella took her phone out of her bag and handed it to Christian. She had no other way but to face this problem and deal with it.
Christian saw Ella’s unconcerned expression with anger in his heart. He took the phone and looked at the previous call records.
There were only a few calls. Ella rarely contacted anyone and vice versa.
At the top, there was an unknown number.
Christian immediately called it and the person on the other side answered right away.
“Isabella,” a gentle male voice rang out, calling out to her with surprise and hope. Haikal did not expect Ella to call him again.
However, who would’ve known that the person holding the woman’s phone right now was not the beautiful woman he imagined, but rather a demon who was ready to destroy him.
Christian gripped the phone and looked at Ella coldly. “Are you two enemies?”
Ella nodded.
Ella considered Haikal her enemy, but Haikal continued to annoy her.
“Are you still trying to lie to me?”
