Chapter 42
42 Adopted
It’s time for dinner. Ella went downstairs with Christian.
Nathan was already at the dining table, waiting for his father to arrive. He was overjoyed at the thought that he could have dinner with his father again.
However, his father did not come down alone, but with the evil woman who bullied him earlier!
Nathan looked at Ella in annoyance.
Just as Ella was about to sit at the dining table, Nathan looked at Ella with a fat face and said in a sweet voice, “Auntie, I have something to tell you!”
Ella immediately stopped moving. She couldn’t believe Nathan’s sweet voice.
Today she had annoyed Nathan and she knew that the boy had already thought of a plan to get back at her.
Nathan wasn’t angry when Ella didn’t stand still nor answer him. A wide smile appeared on his fat face. “Auntie, why don’t you answer me? Am I not sincere enough to you?” He pretended to be sweet in front of his father.
Ella wore a small smile on her lips.
.....
She wanted to tell Nathan that his acting skills were terrible. Plus, she could only see the word ‘conspiracy’ on Nathan’s face.
Maybe she should teach this kid how to improve his acting!
“I apologize. I didn’t hear what you said earlier. Please say it again with that sincere attitude of yours.” Ella’s tone was as sweet as Nathan’s.
Did this chubby kid want to use his father to bully her and at the same time impress him?
He better not dream too high!
Ella had already crawled out of hell with her own hands. How could she be afraid of a little trick like this?
“Obviously you heard me!”
Nathan was easily provoked by Ella’s temptations.
When did he ever speak in such a sweet tone? But because of his plan, he held back. Unfortunately, the woman before him was outrageous.
“What did you say?” Ella looked at him indifferently. “I’m just asking you to repeat what you said. Is it wrong? Young master, it seems you are too temperamental.”
Nathan felt very tired from continuously swallowing his anger since this afternoon.
He thought for a moment and realized that he would not be able to win if he fought this woman alone. Then he looked to his father, looking for help. “Father, look at this aunt.”
He looked at Christian with pitiful eyes and walked towards him. His eyes looked a little teary at this point.
He was not a crybaby, but he could shed his tears to draw sympathy from his father easily.
Ella felt even more impressed with Nathan. Apparently, when dealing with his father, Nathan’s acting skills became much better.
The boy was about to say something when suddenly Christian’s gaze fell on him.
His heart nearly jumped and he hurried to sit obediently.
Christian’s gaze was terrifying and he didn’t dare fight back.
They both waited for Christian to speak, like kindergartens waiting for their teacher.
Christian looked at Ella, ignoring the presence of his son beside him.
Meanwhile, Ella lowered her head and some of the hairs on her head seemed to be swaying as her body was shaking.
In any case, Ella looked very charming.
But Christian found Ella much more charming now that she was in his house.
Even though Ella was currently wearing formal clothes, her attitude was very different from when she was in a hotel or at a company. At home, Ella looked more relaxed.
This made Christian swallow his saliva involuntarily. This woman was at his house, where he lived...
“Ella ...”
Christian suddenly called her name.
Ella lowered her head even more. If possible, she would like to hide under the table. Meanwhile, Nathan was overjoyed. He was sure his father would scold this woman. Finally, this arrogant woman would learn a lesson!
After Christian called her name, the woman suddenly didn’t know what to say.
Ella was still waiting for Christian to speak. But no sound was heard and she finally got up the courage to say, “I’m sorry. I should have listened to your son.”
“Of course!” Nathan answered proudly. He really felt very satisfied. He wanted to show this woman who he really was. He wanted to make Ella aware of his identity as a young master so that Ella would know that he was not someone she could easily challenge.
“No need.”
Hearing what Christian said, they both looked surprised. Ella immediately lifted her head and looked at Christian, while Nathan also looked at his father with a surprised look.
What did it mean? Did Christian defend her just now?
She seemed to be hallucinating again. There was no way Christian could defend her in front of his son...
Nathan didn’t understand what his father meant so he decided to ask, “Father, you...” However, he did not continue and changed his question. “Father, will you expel this evil woman?”
Evil woman...
Ella frowned when she heard Nathan refer to her as a bad woman.
She massaged her increasingly dizzy head and decided to act. If Nathan could act, she could do the same.
She was spoiled in front of Christian. “Christian, are you really going to kick me out? But I just came and I didn’t do anything. I only came because you told me to. What exactly did I do wrong?”
Even if Christian didn’t defend her later, Ella wanted to avenge this fat kid!
She was going to piss him off to death!
Nathan felt his hair stand on end when he heard Ella’s voice. This woman also pretended in front of his father, just like him.
He looked at Ella in annoyance and then grabbed his father’s hand, shaking it sulkily.
“Father, look at this aunt! She is really mean, she doesn’t even want to admit her fault. She is an evil woman!”
Nathan focused on his acting, trying hard to look pitiful.
He did not believe that the acting of adults would be more powerful than children. His father would definitely pity him more!
“Nathan,” Christian looked at his son and said in a low voice. “Say one more time what you said before. She didn’t hear you.”
Hearing Ella’s voice earlier, Christian felt his heart tremble. He knew that Ella deliberately wanted to annoy his son, but Christian just wanted to bind Ella to stay by his side.
“Hah?”
Nathan looked at his father in disbelief and then asked a question that a child would normally ask, “Father, do you prefer this aunt over me? Am I adopted?”
“He didn’t give birth to you,” before Christian could answer, Ella was ahead of him.
Ella said it while suppressing a smile, deliberately teasing Nathan even more.
Of course it wasn’t Christian who gave birth to Nathan, because men couldn’t give birth. But that didn’t mean Nathan was an adopted son.
Ella just wanted to anger this fat boy even more.
She watched this scene while laughing inwardly. This was really fun.
