Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

Chapter 86



The men wore their best suits and shoes. Not forgetting expensive watches that adorned their wrists.

Meanwhile, the women wore their beautiful dresses, with high heels that made them even taller. A set of jewelry adorned their bodies.

The women were chatting with each other, with a graceful smile on their face. Their demeanor looked elegant, showing that they come from the upper class.

Talented people in the business world were also chatting with each other, discussing their work and success.

Everything seemed very harmonious.

Ella looked at Indri with a smile on her face.

The swelling on the woman’s face still hadn’t gone away. Even though it was covered with the best of makeup, the puffiness was still very obvious.

No matter how much money Indri spent to pay for a makeup artist, nothing would be able to cover up such a big swelling.

.....

Her bulging cheeks made her look ridiculous, especially among the rich women who were so well-dressed.

At first, Ella did not understand why Indri still insisted on coming with such a swollen face. In a place like this, all women were competing to show their best appearance. But Indri came in a pitiful state instead.

Was the man beside her not ashamed?

At this time, Indri was holding Haikal’s arm with a happy smile on her face. Haikal also showed a warm smile as if he didn’t care about the swelling on his partner’s face.

Whatever happened to his partner, he would still love her...

That’s the image he wanted to give to those around him.

Gradually, everyone who initially looked cynical turned into envy. No more ridicule was spotted on people’s faces. In fact, they thought that Haikal was a very romantic and loyal man.

Indri could see the change in everyone’s eyes. A proud smile appeared on her lips.

Look! She was a woman who could make everyone admire Haikal. How could Ella compare to her?

Ella’s gaze was also fixed on Indri and Haikal. After that, her curiosity turned to interest.

These two people were not stupid. The way they used to attract other people’s attention was indeed very good.

Many people had witnessed what happened in the supermarket that day. There were even some who recorded it and spread it on the internet so that people made fun of and humiliated Indri and Haikal online.

However, Haikal did not immediately respond. He did not speak or comment on the incident. He was looking forward to today’s opportunity.

No matter how hard he tried to clarify it, the problem was people saw it first. It was useless even if he explained it to everyone.

But if he acted like this in front of the crowd, their view of him would change.

Everything went according to plan!

Christian realized where Ella’s gaze was headed. His expression turned hard to predict and the aura around his body turned cold as he realized that the woman beside him wasn’t paying any attention to him, and instead paying attention to another man.

Some people initially wanted to greet Christian with wine glasses in their hands. But when they sensed Christian’s bad mood, they decided to back off.

In a situation like this, it was impossible for them to talk to Christian.

Ella only watched Haikal and Indri for a moment. And when she turns back to Christian, she is immediately shocked to see what happened to Christian.

This man... who made this man suddenly angry?

She had always been by Christian’s side and she didn’t see anyone approaching him. So, what makes Christian feel angry?

She thought for a moment and looked back into Christian’s eyes, making sure she’s not mistaken. She tried to be brave and asked, “Christian, what’s wrong? Why are you suddenly angry? Is there something that makes you unhappy? Tell me. Maybe I can help you.”

Ella’s voice sounded very sweet as she tried to comfort Christian, making the man’s heart melt without realizing it. Indeed he could not win over this woman!

Whatever Ella did would make his heart melt!

However, Christian tried to appear cool. “What did you see just now?”

“My stepsister and future husband?” Ella didn’t cover it up.

But she said it with a heavy heart as if she didn’t want to mention their names.

Seeing that hateful expression, Christian’s face looked much better. This woman looked at the two of them not out of jealousy or envy, not because she still loved Haikal, but because she hated him...

“Hmm...” she answered seriously. The man’s big hands wrapped tightly around Ella’s waist. “You shouldn’t look at other men carelessly. If you don’t obey my order, you know what the consequences will be.”

“I know...” Ella nodded, tilting her body slightly to lean on Christian, showing their closeness.

While at a lavish event like this, Ella remembered when she came to Indri’s engagement party.

The party that her father had organized for Indri was also as lavish as this party. The difference was, the party was held outdoors with a garden theme so that the luxury was mixed with the beauty of nature.

On the same day, Ella just got out of the mental hospital, with no one to pick her up other than her aunt who took care of her since she was little.

On the same day, she came to the house, only to find her father had kicked her out of her own house, as if she were not a member of the Maheswara Family.

As if the name Maheswara in her name was just a decoration...

When she thought back, Ella’s eyes flashed a glint of sadness. She didn’t want to be treated this way.

She’s not crazy.

She was forced to languish in a mental hospital and suffer for years because of her stepmother and stepsister.

She’s not unhinged.

Ella was silent for a moment and then her hands slowly wrapped around Christian’s waist as if wanting his warmth and support. Her voice was soft as she asked, “No one here will think I’m crazy anymore, right?”

The word crazy made Christian’s eyes look deep. Apparently, he was also reminded of the engagement party at the Maheswara Family.

“No,” there was a hint of pity in Christian’s heart.

He wanted to protect this woman. He didn’t want Ella to be hurt again...

Ella’s eyelashes seemed to tremble slightly. There was a strange feeling in her heart, a feeling she didn’t understand. But she immediately suppressed it.

It is true what people say, humans are greedy and never satisfied. Just like Ella. When she gets something, she wants more.

The person she is dealing with right now is Christian. Just being able to get help from him was enough for Ella. She had to be content with him, and she could not ask for more.

“Thank you...” after saying this, she released herself from Christian’s arms and looked at Nathan who was eating cake on the other side. “Let me take care of Nathan.”

Christian looked at Ella and Nathan. He still had business to discuss and he couldn’t take Nathan with him. Finally, he nodded and let Ella go.
