PERFECT REVENGE : CEO'S LOVELY MISTRESS - Chapter 400 - 400 Visiting Her Mother

400 Visiting Her Mother

Ella looked at Indri and Merry who were getting further away with longing eyes. Even though she hated them the most in this world, Ella still felt jealous of their relationship.

Ella missed her mother.

If her mother was still alive, Ella was sure her relationship with her mother would be the same as Merry and Indri. Or even much better than that.

But sadly, it was just a dream. Her mother had died and could never come back again.

Christian who was standing beside Ella could clearly see the expression on Ella’s face.

“Thinking about your mother?” Christian managed to pierce Ella’s heart with just one question.

Ella felt a little embarrassed because Christian could tell her feelings so easily. After that, she looked at Christian with a confused face. She felt, the longer she was with Christian, the less she could hide from him.

Even the man could see what she was thinking with just one glance.

Christian took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit it, completely unconcerned that they’re still in the hospital.

…..

Just as Ella was about to warn him that smoking wasn’t allowed here, Christian already said in an awkward voice, “Ella, take me to see your mother.”

Christian said it softly, like when Liam talked to Ella.

For some reason, when Liam called Ella’s name, there was a special tenderness that Liam didn’t give to other people.

Christian also wanted to do the same.

Ella was surprised to hear the soft tone of Christian’s mouth as he called out to her. But what surprised her even more was that the man wanted to meet her mother.

“Are you serious?”

“Do you think I’m joking?” The man asked back and focused his attention on Ella’s face.

Ella was silent for a moment, finding it difficult to breathe. She blinked repeatedly and unconsciously, tears rolled down her cheeks.

She sobbed as she raised her hand to wipe the tears away. “I don’t know what’s been going on lately, but I cry so easily. Christian, do I look ugly?” She complained.

“You were ugly from the start. You haven’t changed,” Christian smiled. He put his arm around Ella’s shoulder and asked her to get out of there.

Ella couldn’t believe what Christian said. No matter what Christian said, Ella was sure that she was beautiful. She was very confident in her appearance.

“Christian, you better explain to me. How am I ugly?” Ella asked with a frown.

“Let me take a closer look,” Christian stopped walking and lifted Ella’s chin, watching Ella’s face for a long time. “Perhaps in the eyes of others, there are many bad things that tarnish you. But in my opinion, you are perfect.”

Christian felt that Ella was the perfect woman.

Of course she is. Ella is his woman.

She must be perfect.

Plus, Christian didn’t really care what people thought of Ella. To him, their opinions would not affect him.

Now or later, he would always think Ella was perfect.

Ella nodded repeatedly. She looked up and said, “Christian, although you are selfish, cold, arrogant, evil and cruel in the eyes of others, in my opinion, you are also the perfect man.”

Christian frowned.

Is this woman insulting him or praising him? Why did her insults outweigh her praise?

Plus, Ella mentioned all of his flaws blatantly, making absolutely no attempt to cover it up.

And again, since when did he have all that ugliness? Why didn’t he notice it?

Arrogant and selfish? What about all the money he donated to the orphanage?

Seeing Christian start to think about her words, Ella hurriedly took his big hand and said, “Let’s go. You said you wanted to meet my mother, right?”

…

They went to the grave where Ella’s mother rested.

The place was quiet and serene. Budi bought the land as his wife’s final resting place not because it was a special and quiet place so he could visit her any time. But because the place was quite far from the city center and the price was relatively cheap.

Budi was not willing to spend a lot of money on his dead wife. A dead woman had no meaning and value to him.

But Ella didn’t mind even though the place was a little far away. Ella thought the place was nice and not crowded so the surrounding was always clean.

The photo on her mother’s grave had faded, but her face could still be seen dimly. Ella knew that her mother was very beautiful, especially at her prime.

All the beauty that Ella had right now came from her mother, even though the aura they gave off was different. Everyone could feel the gentle and motherly aura of Ella’s mother. Meanwhile, Ella looked more like a rose blooming beautifully. Bold and glittery, with the thorns surrounding her, making anyone bleed to the touch.

In appearance, Ella got her looks from her mother. Meanwhile, Ella got her stubborn nature from her father.

The wind blew against the two people standing in front of the tomb. The leaves that fell on the ground began to fly along with the dust that littered the path. They stood in silence looking at the tombstone in front of them, as if afraid that a single sound would disturb the peace in the place.

Christian turned to look at Ella’s condition and found that the look in Ella’s eyes was dreamy, showing that her mind had wandered from her body.

Ella looked at the photo with a longing gaze, as if she was remembering everything that happened in the past. Her lips trembled slightly at that.

After that, Ella tried to contain her feelings and said to the photo of her mother, as if she wanted to speak directly to her. “Mother, this is my fiancé, Christian Adipamungkas. Don’t worry about me. I live happily now,” Ella said in a trembling voice. “Christian has been very good to me. Every day he kept asking me to marry him. I… I am very happy.”

Unfortunately, Ella will never get an answer from her mother. She will never see her mother smiling at her when her daughter showed her the man she loved. n0𝗏𝓔𝗅𝓊𝑠𝗯.𝗰0𝗆

Christian smiled at that. His heart seemed to flutter when he heard what Ella said. He took Ella’s hand and said, “Mom, I will take good care of Isabella.”

Tears welled up in Ella’s eyes again.

“Christian, why are you so annoying?” She said annoyed. Why did Christian have to say something heartwarming when Ella’s feelings were unstable like this?

“Why? You don’t like it?” Christian asked.

“No!” Ella replied irritably. Because of Christian, her tears were flowing more profusely now. She had a hard time stopping herself from crying.

Christian could see Ella pouting and sulking like a child. Instead of being annoyed, Christian even felt exasperated when he saw it.

He really wanted this woman.

He wanted to spend the rest of his life with this woman.
