Suddenly, Ella pushed him away as she remembered something. "Enough, we have to go to work today."David regrets the incomplete kiss but he wants to force her, and he can't continue to take time off work. There's still a lot of work to be done at the company. He reminds himself that he will arrange a reasonable time to work and be with Ella at the same time.After changing clothes, he drove her to the company. They clasped hands, entering the lobby under the jealous eyes of the staff.Maria saw David, she hurried over to him. See Ella as invisible, she told David. "I want to talk to you."Ella got the point, she said. "I'm going to make coffee." And she walked over to the coffee shop.Waiting for Ella to leave the hall, Maria asked David with a serious expression. "Why didn't you go to work yesterday?""That's my business. Do I need to report to you my plans and my life?” David had a hint of annoyance in his voice.“No, but at least you have to answer my phone.”“Maria, I don't think
David stopped the car in front of Maria's house, he went straight upstairs and asked the doctor. “How is she?”"Maria fell from upstairs, scratched her skin, bruised a few places on her body, nothing to worry about."At this point he was at ease and told the servants to come down to the living room, he would take care of Maria.Her head was bandaged, her face pale, her lips white, it hurt him to see. In his heart, he blamed himself, if he hadn't been cold to her when she called, this wouldn't have happened. David felt that he was selfish.After a while, Maria slowly opened her eyes. “David, is that you?”“Um.” He quickly grabbed her hand and asked nervously. "Are you ok?"“I'm fine, just my head hurts a bit. Sorry, I shouldn't have let you worry."“Why say these words? I should be the one to say sorry. Why did you fall from upstairs?”She pursed her lips, as if it was difficult to speak, and stammered a reply. “I… I sleepwalked.”"What? Sleepwalking?""Yes! Without you, I'm so scared.
"What are you looking for?" A voice rang out. Ella was startled, taken aback. “Raymon, why are you here?” "This is my house." "What? So, I'm at your house but why?" Ella sat up, reaching out to pat her forehead. “Yesterday, you drank too much. If I drive you back to Anthony's villa in a drunken state, it will make their family members scold. Because I know, Anthony's family is a well-ordered family. I don't know your house again. So I had to drive you to my house.” Raymond explained everything to her. Ella looked down at her body, she was still wearing her old clothes from yesterday. Ella hesitated, she wanted to say something. Raymond seemed to understand what she meant. "I won't take advantage of you while you're drunk." Ella dodged, asking another question. "What time is it?" "Ten o'clock." Raymond looked at his watch and replied. "Why didn't you wake me up?" “I saw you slept well, so I didn't dare wake you up. Do you have breakfast?” “No, I need to go home now.” Ella too
Just taking her to a party, he wouldn't agree to divorce Ella no matter what.The last meeting was for Anthony's family, of course, Maria was invited to attend. But this time the party is for David only, Maria wants to come to have to ask his opinion. She knew he wouldn't let her come, so she took advantage of Mrs. Emma.Many eyes fell on Ella, laughing, mocking, pitying. She looked so pitiful like everyone abandoned her.They know Ella is David's wife but they feel she is not worthy of him. She is just a poor girl, and Maria is a rich girl. Of course, everyone supports Maria and David as a couple.The light enveloped David and Maria's bodies, and the two of them danced softly, like a prince and princess in a fairy tale. And Ella, who could only stand in a place where the light could not reach, was so small and low.The world filled with happiness and sweetness belongs to those two. As for her, there is nothing.She clasped her hands together, lowering her head. Tears welled in her ey
When the party is over, Raymond offers to drive Ella home. Before getting into the car, she still couldn't help but look at Maria. He stood at the car door looking at her as well, his eyes seemed to have a thousand words to say.She waited for him to walk over to her, but he didn't, and finally, he turned around and got into the car. Seeing that car disappear, she completely lost all hope.Raymond is driving on the road. Ella sat next to her. The two of them were silent. After a while, she said. "Thank you. You always show up when I'm sad, and let me know that I'm not alone. You are a best friend."Raymond thinks that in her heart there is only David. The good sides of him, she didn't know, but unexpectedly, she knew them all.But, he's not used to being thanked by others, he's a bit unnatural. “I am not as good as you say. But I will always be with you, listening to all your problems.”"Do you think I'm taking David away from Maria?"“You are his legal wife, why are you afraid?” Raym
While waiting for Raymon to plot to sleep with Ella, Maria executes the next plan. She didn't want Ella to live in peace even for a minute.After her conversation with Raymond, Maria texted Ella. "I'd like to meet you, stay at the women's locker room."Ella read the message and went to the girls changing room. When she got there, she saw Maria leaning against one of the drawers.Maria spoke first. “At the party that day, David didn't tell me you were coming too. I apologize for making you feel awkward.” In her eyes, filled with a sincere apology.Ella didn't want to bring up the matter so she shook her head.“Because of me, your relationship with David has deteriorated, I feel guilty. I have made a reservation at the bamboo house in X town, you two should go there and enjoy the happy moments.”"Why?" Ella looked suspiciously at the beautiful girl in front of her.“I really want to help you. Please, accept it, or else I'll feel bad.""But…""OK. Make a quick decision, next Saturday nig
Ella smacked her mouth, like a resentful, choking child. “You bully me.”“Sorry, I shouldn't have bullied you, I was wrong, forgive me, okay?”The first time he softly begged her, and comforted her, Ella was both excited and worried. She was very touched, but her face was still restrained, not wanting to let him feel she was weak.Like a small dog wagging its tail, her eyes filled with tears. “Then I can go, right?”David was not happy in his heart, but he was still patient. He said to himself. 'Starting now, I have to learn to respect her.Moreover, her puppy dog eyes were so pitiful that he couldn't resist, he couldn't bear to refuse. David wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with his hand, sighed, and spoke softly. "I'll drive you there."Ella cheered, reaching out to wrap her arms around his neck, forcefully kissing his right cheek.“Still not enough.”She blushed. “So, what do you want?”He tilted his head over, offering his left cheek. “This side too.”Ella sulked but
She withdrew her foot. “No need, just minor scratches.”He was still pulling her foot, placing it on his lap. David dipped a cotton ball in the medicine and gently applied it to her. She was in so much pain that her brows furrowed, and she lowered her head and groaned."Are you in pain?""It's fine, it doesn't hurt much..."She was stubborn again. He stooped, blowing at her feet. Then he raised his head again. "A little blowing won't hurt anymore."Ella's heart softened. This man was so gentle like he was coaxing a child.“Are you injured?” Ella asked."Not available.""Lie, I'm injured, why don't you." Ella impatiently wanted to examine David's wounds. The two of them pushed back and forth.In a moment of carelessness, Ella pinned David down on the bed, the towel wrapped around his waist falling. Her towels are also loosening.So, the two of them, with male upper body and lower female posture, looked each other in the eye.Ella's face was red, her heart was pounding.And David was ve
