Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245: Honestly, she missed him

"Ella, is he... really your husband?" Ruby dragged Ella to a corner, watching Adrian who was taking a walk with Ji Yan, while discussing some work affairs.

Ella nodded. Last night, she had already come clean to Ruby about everything.

Who could have known that the girl would not bat an eye when she got to know about Adrian’s identity?

But the truth of their marriage seemed to have... startled her.

Ruby frowned, "A legit marriage?"

Ella nodded again, "Yes, with marriage certificates."

Ruby fell silent.

"Don’t worry. It’s not that much of an issue..."

Ruby frowned, "But you are too young."

Ella was stunned for a moment before she broke into a smile.

"What?"

"You just sounded like a concerned mother," Ella burst out in laughter.

Perhaps, recently after the confrontation with her family, Ella found Ruby’s reaction quite refreshing.

Her parents were concerned about themselves, their reputation, their younger daughter and their safety when they got to know that Adrian King had got anything to do with her.

So, in comparison, Ruby’s reaction was refreshing for Ella.

"You have barely gotten a little better and you are already on it. Didn’t I ask you to rest?"

Ella looked up as Ronan and Adrian returned, followed by Ji Yan.

Yesterday, after she went out to talk to Ruby, Ronan did the regular checkups and declared that Adrian’s condition seemed much better now.

And he no longer needed to lock himself up in the room.

While Ella was lost in her thoughts, she did not realize the shift in her surroundings.

Until a shadow hovered over her.

Ella looked up at Adrian who was standing in front of her, his head tilted down to meet her gaze.

"How do you feel today?" Ella angled her head to the side, observing his complexion.

Adrian gazed at her deeply, inhaled a deep breath before taking a step back, "Much better."

Then, his gaze shifted downwards.

Hmm? Ella followed his gaze looking at the spot where she had her hand hooked around Ruby’s.

When she looked up, Adrian was already glowering at Ruby.

Ruby sported a cold face on before she averted her gaze.

The atmosphere tensed, dark clouds hovering in the air.

"Cough..." Ronan quietly stepped in between and separated Ruby from Ella.

Ruby glanced at him, narrowing her eyes.

Ronan released her hand, "I just wanted to talk.’’

"We don’t have anything to talk about," With that, she turned around and walked off to the guest room.

Later that day, Ella finally mentioned about the affairs of Ambrose family to Adrian.

And followed by that was her decision to temporary let them stay at the Eve Mansion. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Actually, I have some other arrangements in mind but right now, I am worried it won’t be safe for them..." With the kind of person Mr. Ambrose was, he would definitely seek them out regardless of where they were.

The only place he wouldn’t try to reach out to was probably the Eve Mansion.

She was worried Adrian might not agree to it.

But Adrian ordered Ji Yan in a heartbeat, "Take Miss Ambrose back. And make sure the both of them are taken care of."

Ella sighed, feeling grateful, "Baby, you really don’t mind?"

Adrian put his phone down, gazing at the woman who was sitting by his side, with her legs crossed on the couch, "No."

Ella’s eyes twinkled.

Ji Yan refrained his urge to puke from the overdose of dogfood.

Miss Yu, ah, Miss Yu, can’t you see what Second Master is upto? In a few words, he managed to get rid of me and Miss Ambrose at the same time. Next, it will be Dr. Knight’s turn.

Ji Yan looked at Ella like she was some sacrifical lamb.

On the other hand, how could Ella be clueless of Adrian’s intentions?

She simply did not mind falling into his ’trap’.

It has been quite some time since Adrian had been hiding from here.

And as much as Ella was reluctant to admit it—

She missed him.
