279 The Weekend’s Appointment
The weekend had arrived.
It was rare for Ella to ask Luca for a day off. But today is a special day. She had an appointment to go with Nathan, to eat ice cream together.
Early in the morning, Nathan was impatient so he called Ella first. He had been waiting for this day. It had been a long time since he had last seen the old woman and he had missed her so much.
Besides, he could also eat ice cream today.
How could Nathan not be happy? Today he got to meet Ella and enjoy ice cream together with her.
When getting a call from Nathan, Ella said in a soft voice, “Tell your driver to go to the address I sent. I’ll be waiting for you there.”
Since Ella can’t appear before Christian, Ella has to make an appointment with Nathan elsewhere, in a place Christian won’t know about.
Upon hearing this, Nathan immediately pouted. His cheeks look flushed. “Old woman, you’re not going to pick me up? Aren’t you going to stay with me later?”
“Ah?” Ella didn’t react. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but that she couldn’t. Because she had promised Christian she would never appear in front of him again.
.....
Ella didn’t understand why Nathan thought that she would be living with him again.
Nathan explained patiently, “One day, you will marry me. We will not be able to live apart from father because I will be the one who will take care of father when he grows old. That’s why, you should come back soon and prepare yourself before we get married later.”
Nathan said it confidently, making Ella want to laugh.
“Fat boy, will there really be a girl who likes you someday?”
Nathan was too smart for his age. Sometimes he uttered words that were difficult for even adults to understand.
Just like what Nathan just said. All of that would have never crossed Ella’s mind.
Nathan didn’t know why Ella was suddenly talking about this, but he answered confidently, “Of course. Many girls will like me in the future.”
“They must have been fooled by your appearance.” Ella rolled her eyes, but her lips were smiling with pride.
The two of them chatted for a while before leaving for their destination.
Along the way, Nathan looked very excited. His attitude made the driver who drove him feel confused. It was the first time he had seen his young master like this.
The fat boy rolled around in the back seat saying, “Does the ice cream taste good?”
“Perhaps better than the one at home, sir. I’ve only ever tried kitchen-made ice cream,” the driver answered simply. Luckily, Nathan asked something he could still answer.
Nathan thought for a moment and then said, “This ice cream must taste different from the one at home.”
His tone was so firm that the driver wondered how to answer. He didn’t know how the ice cream tasted and he didn’t think it would be much different.
But the young master was in a good mood right now and he didn’t want to spoil his mood.
Not getting an answer from the driver made Nathan even more curious. He got up from the back seat and leaned back in the driver’s seat. “Why don’t you answer me?”
“It definitely tastes better than the one at home,” the driver could only answer carelessly, hoping that the answer was correct.
Nathan nodded with satisfaction and then sat in the back seat playing with his cell phone.
Just five minutes after their car left the house, Christian suddenly called him.
Nathan saw his father’s name on the screen and remembered Ella’s instruction not to let him know about this meeting. Nathan immediately panicked.
Did his father know something that he called him?
The more he thought about it, the more Nathan panicked. He answered the call suspiciously and Christian’s voice was heard from the other side.
“Where are you going?” Christian asked as soon as Nathan picked up the phone. This morning, Christian went to the office earlier than usual. After he went to the company, suddenly the butler called him and said that Nathan wanted to go out, only with a driver, not to be accompanied by anyone. When the butler asked where Nathan wanted to go, Nathan refused to answer.
Therefore, the butler was forced to call Christian out of concern for his young master.
Nathan was very annoyed with the butler. It’s possible that his date plan with Ella would fall apart because of the butler!
He frowned, but still answered his father’s question. “To the mall.”
Christian felt there was something strange about his son. Nathan never went to the mall alone. Why did he suddenly want to go there now?
“What are you going there for?” Christian asked again.
Nathan felt his heart beating faster. He hadn’t thought of a perfect reason to answer his father’s question. So, what should he answer?
He opened his mouth, but before his voice came out, Nathan heard a woman’s voice from the other side. “Tian, ??who are you calling?”
That one sentence made Nathan’s mood immediately deteriorate in an instant.
Nathan disliked all women who wanted to be his mother, including Nadia. He and Nadia didn’t have any problems, but he felt that Nadia was no different from any other woman. Nadia tried to approach him just to win his father’s heart. The woman’s main goal was not to be friends with him, but to become his new mother.
Of course Nathan would reject her.
He said angrily, “Father, you are so mean! What do you like about that ugly woman!”
Nathan didn’t understand. Nadia looked uglier than Ella. Why did his father like the woman more than the old woman? Has his father’s eyesight deteriorated? Was his father’s taste that bad?
Hearing his son’s voice, Christian looked at Nadia beside him and said calmly, “You have to be polite to other people.”
“But I really don’t like her!” Nathan felt very sad and wanted to cry. Why did his father defend her more than him?
Christian massaged his dizzy forehead. “Then who do you like?”
Not a single woman around him could melt Nathan’s heart. He was already feeling very dizzy, having to deal with Nadia every day. He no longer had the energy to comfort and persuade his son.
His head really hurts!
After quite a long time had passed, the damn woman had yet to appear before him.
Did Ella really ignore him? Wouldn’t she mind that Christian had a new woman now?
Christian couldn’t find Ella because he couldn’t keep his promise. He didn’t know where Ella was and couldn’t reach her.
The only way he could do it was to use the media to have Ella appear in front of him.
But he had tried many times, even going so far as to create gossip by using the woman he didn’t like. But until now, Ella had not appeared.
Did that mean Ella had completely forgotten about him? Or maybe Ella didn’t like him from the start?
Thinking about this made Christian gloomy.
