Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

For Laras, this was not the time to think twice. She was already walking towards Ella. Seeing Laras raise her hand instead of backing away, Ella stepped forward and grabbed Laras’ wrist.

“Secretary Laras, don’t underestimate me. No matter how strong you are, how can you compare to someone who has lived in a mental hospital?”

Ella had not spent her five years, the most dark days in her life, in vain. During those five years, she looked for ways how she could survive and live her life quietly.

In such a situation, she should be able to protect herself.

Laras’ eyes widened when she heard Ella’s words. Why was this woman suddenly talking about a mental hospital? What did it mean?

Seeing the confusion in Laras’ eyes, Ella smiled sweetly.

“You have never investigated me before, huh? If you knew my past, you would know that I lived in a mental hospital for five years. Five years is enough to make a normal person go crazy.”

Ella’s grip in Laras wrist grew stronger. When Laras was pensive, Ella’s other hand was already holding the teapot.

.....

“Are you afraid?” She asked, tilting her head.

The innocence on Ella’s face made Laras’ face even paler. That innocence made Ella look deadly.

“How can a woman of low status like you be with me!” Laras shouted. Her heart was full of hatred.

How dare this cheap woman hook up with Christian. Where did she get her confidence and courage from?

This woman was truly nothing compared to her!

“Why?” Ella chuckled. “Of course because of my appearance. Is there even a man who refuses a beautiful woman? Christian is the same. He won’t be able to resist my beauty.”

Ella planned to put the teapot some distance away from her. If the hot water really doused her, things would turn really ugly.

This is no joke.

Previously, Laras was a little scared when she heard that Ella had lived in a mental hospital. But seeing Ella’s arrogant look, her heart went crazy.

She didn’t want to let her go. She wouldn’t forgive her!

“Ella, I will absolutely crush you!”

“You’re crazy...” Before Ella could finish her sentence, Laras had already attacked her and dropped the teapot that Ella had managed to grab earlier.

“AHH!” A woman’s scream echoed in the pantry.

Ella just looked at Laras blankly.

Laras pushed the teapot too hard, causing the contents to spill towards her. Besides, Ella had taken that into account so she could dodge quickly.

Meanwhile, Laras didn’t have time to dodge as she was so distracted by her hatred.

She was the one who got doused with the hot water.

Ella could only sigh helplessly. She didn’t do anything. This was all Laras’ own fault.

As soon as she lifted her head, Ella saw Christian standing in front of the pantry door. His gloomy face looked so dark.

“Christian...”

Ella takes a step back, surprised by Christian’s sudden arrival. She could only call his name.

She still has the teapot in her hand and she looks like a criminal, unable to explain anything to Christian.

Christian looks at Ella intently. There was a hint of complexity in his eyes.

Currently, Laras was lying on the floor screaming in pain. He also realized that something was wrong when he saw Ella silent. When the woman turned around, her eyes found Christian’s figure.

Laras’ eyes immediately lit up brightly, she would take this opportunity to attract Christian’s sympathy with her tears.

“Master, Miss Ella... she purposely doused me with hot water ...” Laras said while shedding tears. She looked like she was a victim, so anyone who pitied her would immediately protect her.

Unfortunately, Christian didn’t see her as such.

Ella frowned when she heard that pitiful voice.

She did not want to refute Laras’ words. After all, even if she tried to explain, Christian wouldn’t believe her.

Now it all depends on Christian.

She can only hope Christian opens his eyes wide and sees the truth.

Seeing Ella fall silent, Laras felt relieved. She thought Ella was so shocked she couldn’t speak. If Ella denied it and defended herself, maybe Christian would prefer that woman.

Now, Laras had more advantages than her. She wanted to take this opportunity to get Christian’s attention and also accuse Ella.

“Master, she is a dangerous woman. She must want to take advantage of you!” Laras said worriedly. Her eyes are filled with concern as she looks at Christian.

Christian glances at it and notices there is a grip mark on Laras wrist. His eyes looked complicated now.

Ella, who had been watching Christian for a long time, saw his expression at this time. Her heart was like being stabbed with a thousand tiny needles, making her feel uncomfortable.

Her breaths elevated as if she was drowning in her bad day again.

Ella closed her eyes then slowly placed the teapot she was holding onto the table before laughing out loud. “Too bad,” she said, turning to Christian. “Do you want to seek justice for your secretary?”

Ella kept smiling from earlier even though it was a fake one.

She still maintains her appearance like an elegant and graceful woman. Her tone was very relaxed and calm.

Meanwhile, Laras was getting more and more restless.

She didn’t know what Ella’s position was in Christian’s eyes.

Christian looks at Ella and then over to her. He grabbed Ella’s chin and asked, “Do you want to?”

Ella looked at the man in front of her in confusion. It seems Christian has no intention of defending Laras.

Ella has been with Christian long enough and quite understands what the man means.

Meanwhile, Laras doesn’t understand what Christian is saying. But she knew she couldn’t speak now.

She stood up with a trembling body, leaning against the wall so that her body wouldn’t sway. Her entire face turned deathly pale from enduring the pain.

“Sir, I will take care of my wound first.” Since Laras was wearing a skirt, the hot water immediately spilled onto her skin and left a burning scar on it.

The pity that Ella showed to Laras was just an illusion, as if she was really the villain who had caused all this.

But it wasn’t Ella’s fault that she wasn’t being kind. Laras herself asked all this to happen.

Ella didn’t mean anything, she didn’t mean to harm Laras. She also didn’t want to spill the hot water because she initially boiled it for Christian.

“Hmm...” Christian replied seriously. Not once did his eyes fall on Laras.
