"Are you doing this on purpose? Do you know how much trouble I will get into...?" Mo Jun chattered away in his car as he glanced at the woman sitting in the passenger seat.
Ella calmly fixed the scarf around her bandages before putting on her shades.
She was dressed in a soft elegant dress and nobody would be able to tell that she pulled a ’princess stunt’ by climbing down the window half an hour ago.
"I will treat you later."
"What treat? Your man will turn me into a midnight feast if he knows about this..."
Ella gave him a silent look.
Just one look yet Mo Jun shut up almost immediately.
He was afraid of Adrian but he couldn’t also deny the fear he held towards Ella.
The way she helped him throughout almost made it seem like she had everything under control, from the beginning to end. Like she knew everything and she could predict everything.
Other than that, she was the only person who had stood by him in the moment of difficulties despite their differences in the past so somewhere along the way, they had established a form of camaraderie.
So, if she wanted his help, he would definitely step forward to help her, even if it risked his life. Because the situation Ella pulled him out from was no less than death itself.
"I don’t get it... The security in the Eve Mansion is so tight. Who did you hold hostage to escape so easily from there?" Mo Jun muttered as he opened the car door for Ella.
Ella paused for a moment, frowning before she replied, "Myself."
Mo Jun stood dumbfounded while Ella stepped inside the grand hotel in front of him.
It was only when she almost disappeared from his sight did he recover his senses and chase after her.
And truth be told, even before Ella’s rebirth, Adrian’s guards would let her have his way if she threatened to hurt herself, let alone now when they indeed treated her as their Master’s wife.
If she threatened to have her way, they would let her get by. At most, they would just inform Adrian.
But Ella was not afraid of that. Before Adrian got to her, she would finish what she was here for.
...
Inside a VIP room of the grand hotel.
A woman stood by the window, donned in a bodycon dress that seemed two sizes small. It hugged her body snugly, enhancing her curves in all the right places.
One could not say what she was thinking but two of her fingers constantly twirled her hair strands absent-mindedly.
’Click’
The door opened and Esther straightened up.
"Ah Jun... you are finally here..." Esther ran a hand to smoothen her bodycon dress as she spoke without turning around, "I knew you would not forget me just like that. I always knew you loved me the most."
Esther’s voice wavered, "When I received the message that you want to meet me here, I just knew you couldn’t continue to act anymore. You must be sick of acting like you hate me, right?"
Esther gripped the windowsill and continued in an ever-so touching voice, "In fact, these few days I have been reflecting on my actions. I was led astray back then... I shouldn’t have been with others..."
"Thinking about it, you are the one who has been by my side all this while. I still remember how we met. I remember hiding and seeing you being scolded by your father... and you running into a corner to cry..."
