106 One More Chance
“Fat boy, is that how you talk to me? Looks like I have to teach you a lesson.”
However, before Ella could do anything, Nathan was already running fast from there, escaping Ella.
Even though the fat kid was quite agile, Ella could have chased after him and caught him. But Ella deliberately didn’t run too fast because she only wanted to scare Nathan.
The two of them chased after screaming and laughing, making the normally cold atmosphere of the house filled with laughter.
Incidentally, Laras saw this incident when she came out of Christian’s house.
Nathan was running in the garden, looking back at Ella from time to time. He looked very innocent and cute like a child in general.
Laras had never seen Nathan like this before.
All this time, Nathan had always been fierce in front of her. He was also always cold, unlike a child who was easy to persuade.
The butler also looked at Nathan with an unexpected look. Not only did Laras find this sight extremely rare, the butler also thought the same thing.
.....
Since when did the young master change that they could see him running around happily like this?
It took the butler a long time to react and scream frantically, “Young master, please don’t run around. Oh my God, be careful!”
He immediately rushed to chase Nathan for fear of the child falling. If anything were to happen to his Young Master, he would pay for it with his life!
Ella stopped chasing Nathan and looked at the fat boy with tenderness on her face.
Laras walked up to her and stood beside her. “It seems, I have underestimated your abilities.”
She did not expect this woman to conquer Nathan’s heart. Laras knew very well how difficult it was to approach Nathan, but this woman had succeeded.
“Of course,” Ella snorted coldly. She didn’t try to hide her pride. She provoked Laras on purpose.
Her gaze fell on Laras as she looked at her from head to toe and said, “Thank you for the compliment. But you are actually jealous, right?”
Ella covered her mouth and laughed gracefully. “Not only was I able to win Christian’s heart, I was also able to make Nathan like me. This is something you can’t get no matter how hard you try.”
The blatant sarcasm made Laras expression change.
That expression made Ella smile even wider.
If this woman hadn’t been looking for trouble with her, she wouldn’t have done anything. She wasn’t someone who liked to get into trouble with other people.
But this woman in front of her deliberately challenged her. Of course she should retaliate.
Even more cruelly...
She wasn’t weak in the past, now could they imagine how much she changed after 5 years? She’d always been stubborn and now, Ella was much more cruel.
“Ella, aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Christian what you just said?” Lara clenched her fist tightly.
Indeed, she was jealous.
Laras was so jealous!
She’d been by Christian’s side for a long time, spending years helping out with his work. But apart from work, she couldn’t get the man’s attention.
She knew that Christian was cold-hearted. But as long as she was willing to wait patiently, she was sure that the man’s cold heart would eventually melt. She was sure the man would submit to her!
Laras would wait for him, no matter how long it took to achieve her dream. To get the man she wanted....
But she didn’t expect Ella to appear in the middle of her way.
Ella could see the hatred in Laras’ eyes clearly. However, she just shrugged her shoulders indifferently. “Are you sure you can do the same as I do, Secretary Laras?”
Ella always called her with her title in the company to show that Laras’s presence beside Christian was nothing more than a secretary.
Laras was not even a woman in Christian’s eyes.
Laras was just a secretary. An employee...
Ella laughed softly and patted Laras on the shoulder. “No matter how hard you try, you can never feel Christian’s bed. Do you know what you lack compared to me?”
Laras looked at Ella closely.
Ella did not expect an answer from Laras mouth. She continued with a sweet smile, “Because I am younger and prettier than you. Men like young and beautiful women, right?”
The smile that radiated from Ella’s face was a perfect smile.
That smile made Laras grit her teeth in anger.
“Secretary Laras, you can’t be angry. Otherwise, you will quickly get old and wrinkled.” Before Laras could answer, Ella had already left.
While walking past her, Ella accidentally nudged Laras shoulder.
Ella knew that in the presence of Christian, Laras had such a big pride because of her good ability at work. But other than that, Ella didn’t find any other threat from Laras.
Laras was just one of the many employees at Christian’s company.
There were so many young women from rich families who wanted to marry Christian. But Christian never batted an eye at them.
If those girls couldn’t even attract him, how could a plain secretary like Laras?
Laras didn’t mean anything.
“Ella, just wait for it!” Laras shouted angrily so that her voice sounded hoarse.
“Secretary Laras, please don’t be noisy.” Ella looked at Laras who had changed like a tiger and kindly reminded her, “Christian likes gentle women.”
“You...”
Laras stamped her feet angrily and left with the documents Christian asked for.
Ella stared at the woman’s back as she walked further away, recalling the time her cell phone was thrown in the trash by Christian.
All of it happened because of Laras!
Ella’s heart ached when she remembered her cellphone.
Nathan had been running for quite a while, not realizing that Ella had stopped chasing him.
When he looked back, he saw that Laras was gone.
Nathan saw the look on Ella’s face, as if he wanted to make sure that the evil woman didn’t bully Ella. He took Ella’s hand confidently and led her into the house.
“Old woman, this young master of yours is hungry.”
He tried to distract Ella from the evil woman. For some reason, since Laras’ arrival, Nathan could feel a little sadness from Ella.
Maybe it’s because the bad woman bullied Ella.
In his heart, Nathan promised that he would protect this old woman.
...
In the CEO’s room, Christian was seen reading the document in his hand. It was the document he had just received from the young secretary who was in front of him.
He lifted his head and looked at the young secretary. “Did something happen at my house?”
“That...”
The young secretary looked confused. She didn’t go to Christian’s house. Then, how should she answer this question?
Christian stopped moving and looked at the secretary in front of him with a frown. “What’s wrong?”
“I... I took the documents and left right away. I didn’t pay attention to anything else,” the young secretary lowered her head in fear.
“Is that true?” Christian closed the document he was holding and said in a deep voice. “I’ll give you one more chance.”
