Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178: Oops! Trouble after trouble

"You only said that it is a mansion. Tell me, is that not enough of a reason for me to move back to the Eve Mansion?" Ella looked at Esther.

"Sis!" There was a subtle change in Esther’s expressions as she looked at Ella in disbelief, "You can’t say things like that... If people heard you, they will call you a gold—"

Esther halted mid-sentence as if she couldn’t bring herself to finish the sentence.

Meanwhile, Ella’s lips curved up, "A gold digger? I am not a gold digger, Esther."

"I know, sis. I was just saying that..."

"I am into diamonds more, so maybe a diamond digger. Sounds good?"

"_"

Esther was stunned but after a moment, she collected herself, "Sis, are you... Are you saying that you are staying with him because of his money?"

"A beautiful husband, his lavish mansion and his endless money... Essie, wouldn’t I be a fool to let go?" As Ella spoke, her eyes twinkled.

Esther clutched her phone tighter in her hand, a cold glint flickering in her eyes.

Ella pretended to not notice anything, "I am leaving now but don’t be too sad. And don’t miss me too much. We will see each other again soon."

"Sis, what... do you mean?" A bad feeling rose up to Esther’s chest. \

"Isn’t it our parents’ wedding anniversary in 5 days?" Ella looked at her in confusion, "Did you forget?"

Esther paused, the smile on her face wavered, "Sis, you don’t have to force yourself to be there...’’

"Silly, why would I force myself? They are my parents too!"

After Ella left, Esther’s face darkened.

But after a moment, she tapped something on her phone and Ella’s voice rang out:

’A beautiful husband, his lavish mansion and his endless money... Essie, wouldn’t I be a fool to let go?’

Before this, Adrian had blocked her number. Initially, she could not understand why he did that. After thinking long and hard, Esther concluded that it must be because Ella acted foolishly in front of him. And by an extension, Adrian hated her too.

But when she overheard the conversation between Ruby and Ella, she understood everything.

Kade was Adrian’s brother and Esther had tried to malign Kade and Ella together by suggesting an illicit relationship. No wonder Adrian was angry.

Esther activated her new number and typed a text:

[Mr. King, I did not want to send this over but I am concerned for you as much as I am concerned for my sister. *recording attached*]

As soon as Esther sent the text, a smile crept on her face. As a part of the elite society, she knew one or two things about men, especially the ones in a high position.

Men like these would hate to be used by a woman. No matter how obsessed Adrian was with Ella, would he tolerate this?

At this moment, Esther’s phone started ringing. When she saw the caller ID, her brows furrowed.

After giving it a thought, she answered the call.

"Esther, how are things now? You told me to wait before meeting Ella. I will meet her today..."

"Brother-in-law, you don’t need to come over."

"What? Why are you saying that?" Max’s voice deepened,"We have given it enough time. I must meet her today."

Why would all these men chase after an ugly slut like you?
