261 Having No Family
“Hurry and try harder...” Christian paused for a moment and remembered his promise to Ella. “Just forget it. Don’t search for her anymore.”
“Sir...” the butler rushed over to Christian with a worried look. He was about to speak again, but Christian sat on the sofa and raised his hand, then asked the butler not to say anything.
“I promised her I wouldn’t look for her again if I couldn’t find her today,” there is a sense of loneliness in Christian’s voice.
The butler feels bad for Christian to let Ella go. Over the years, his master finally managed to find the woman he loved.
The butler said again, “Master, I can see that Miss Ella also has feelings for you. How about the two of you meet and talk to resolve the misunderstanding? In relationships, communication is very important. Communication can take you to the next level.”
“There is no misunderstanding between me and her,” Christian’s voice is low. His brows furrowed in annoyance.
He’s really worried now.
Christian never thought about his feelings for Ella. He didn’t want other people to mention the name of the woman who gave him a headache. But he also didn’t want the butler to stop talking.
The butler has served Christian for years. He understands Christian’s character very well and he knows what Christian is thinking with just one look.
.....
He knows what went wrong between Christian and Ella’s relationship.
“Master, are you willing to miss a good woman like Miss Ella?” The butler took a deep breath and continued, “Miss Ella is a very kind woman and she loves Young Master very much.”
Nathan was standing on the edge of the stairs on the second floor and heard their conversation.
Just like the butler, he also wanted his father to pick up Ella. If that happened, it would mean that his father had confessed his feelings and accepted Ella.
Nathan was really sorry.
After waking up from the fire that day, he missed Ella even more. Looking at his house now, he felt bored and empty.
Christian feels a little confused when he hears the butler’s words. He looked up slightly and saw Nathan standing on the edge of the stairs. “Nathan, come here,” he ordered.
Nathan nodded and walked towards his father. He felt so guilty for causing such a ruckus and letting Ella go with his help. Therefore, Nathan did not dare to raise his head and look at Christian.
He had made his father angry. He had also burned down the tree house in the back garden, turning it into a heap of ashes.
“Have you ever thought about having a mother?” Christian hugged Nathan in his lap and asked seriously.
Previously, Christian and the butler were still discussing about Ella, but suddenly his father asked this question. It made Nathan a little surprised and confused.
“I... I’ve thought about it,” Nathan said, nodding.
He never really talked about this matter. He knows that his father is a loner so he does not want to discuss this matter in front of his father and make him even more sad.
He doesn’t want to make his father angry by discussing his biological mother.
Upon hearing Christian’s question, Nathan seemed to have the opportunity to ask about his biological mother. “Have you found my birth mother?”
Christian didn’t answer and instead said, “If I remarry, my wife will be your mother.”
“I know that,” Nathan pursed his lips. “But that woman is not my real mother. That woman will be my stepmother. I heard that the stepmother is very mean to her stepchildren.”
Nathan’s cheeks bulged and reddened with annoyance.
Nathan also knows that Ella has a mean stepmother to her. He had seen the news on TV that discussed the relationship between Ella and Merry.
Nathan also saw how Merry treated Ella when they met at the supermarket. The two ugly women who were mean to him and Ella were Ella’s stepmother and step-sister.
“Where did you learn that kind of thing?” Christian frowned.
If the woman he married dared to do evil to Nathan, Christian would surely make her suffer and regret for being born.
“The old woman called that evil auntie stepmother,” as he said it, Nathan’s mood got even worse.
Hearing his son talk about Ella, Christian feels very uncomfortable. She really is cruel. Even though Ella didn’t care about him, how could she do all this to his son? Nathan absolutely loved her!
“Father, if you can, help her to take revenge for her family’s crimes,” even though he was only 5 years old, Nathan had seen women who were hypocrites and liars. According to him, Merry is the worst of all.
Then Nathan continued, “Poor her. She has neither a father nor a mother to defend her.”
In the eyes of 5-year-old Nathan, Ella’s family cannot be considered as family.
Family should be like him and his father. Even though they don’t spend much time going out together, they still care for each other instead of cutting off each other and exposing each other’s ugliness like Ella’s family.
Hearing Nathan’s words, Christian suddenly freezes.
It’s true what Nathan said, Ella has no parents. She also didn’t go to Liam’s place and would never contact Haikal.
Then, where did she go?
Ella is so fragile. With just a little bit of Christian’s strength, her white skin could turn red.
Can she take care of herself out there?
She didn’t bring her cell phone, didn’t take any jewelry, didn’t bring any clothes. She didn’t bring anything from Christian’s house.
The more Christian thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became. Unknowingly, his hands that hugged Nathan became tighter.
Nathan frowned and looked at Christian. “Father, you hurt me.”
His words instantly made Christian let go of his arms.
“Where do you think she will go?”
Nathan shook his head. “She didn’t tell me.”
Ella only said she would call Nathan after she left. Ella didn’t tell him where she was going or what she was going to do out there.
Frustration returned to Christian’s face.
He thought for a moment and released Nathan from his lap, walking towards the study upstairs.
He didn’t even think about having dinner and went straight to browsing the internet with his laptop. He is looking for a way to get that woman back to his side.
Sending flowers and gifts? No, that’s too cringe.
Saying compliments to melt her heart? Christian is an extraordinary CEO. Why did he have to melt a woman’s heart?
Giving her a big surprise, helping her empty her shopping cart... and so on? No, definitely not in this way.
Christian massaged his dizzy head.
He didn’t even know where Ella was. All these methods will not work.
Christian continued to browse the web page for a long time and suddenly, his eyes lit up when he found an answer.
