Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 283

Chapter 283: The apple of Ella’s eyes

Ella locked herself in her room right after dinner. The servants exchanged worried glances, sensing the rift between Adrian and Ella growing wider.

Inside the room, Ella tore a page from her notebook, her pen scratching hurriedly as she wrote down the vehicle number etched in her mind.

After a quick search online, she called a detective agency and summarized what had happened with the driver.

"I have the vehicle number. Could you look into for me? Sure... thanks...’’

Ella had offended quite a lot of people along the way. But she had not expected the sneak attack today.

It seemed like Esther’s style... But recently, Esther was chasing the highs, would she have the time to care about her?

For some reason, Ella’s instincts told her that what happened today was not Esther’s doing.

’Buzz...’

Ella picked up her phone and glanced at the ’transaction alert’.

A huge sum of money was sent to her account by the ’Lilac’ Headquarters alongwith a text from the Vice President’s brother.

[Jerome: Miss Yu, Brother said he will personally show his appreciation when you come to Westra City.]

As per the deal, they gave her creative credits for this line of products on their brand website.

And they also sent her the specific percentage of money that they had agreed upon.

Seeing the climbing dollar signs, Ella’s mood lightened up a bit.

At this moment, the door to the bedroom was pushed open.

When Ella turned, Adrian stood at the entrance, his face stormy.

Adrian watched as the huge smile on Ella’s face faded the moment she saw him.

And suddenly, his steps halted.

He stood there, by the door for a long time, hoping for her to say something.

But she averted her gaze... as if she could not bear to look at him.

After a few minutes, Ella climbed on the bed and buried herself in the blankets.

No words were exchanged and no interactions happened.

And this cold war persisted through the next morning and afternoon.

Whenever Adrian looked for Ella, she found an excuse to shrug him off.

Despite being in the same place, their paths did not seem to cross at all.

"Mother... what’s going on?" Rin whispered blankly.

"Shh... Don’t you know what day it is?" Bertha looked around before she spoke, "No matter what, don’t offend Second Master today..."

On this particular day, all the servants in the mansion seemed to be extra wary of Adrian.

So, the servants and even Ji Yan stayed at a little distance, acting like they were deaf and blind.

Later that evening, inside the private room of a lively nightclub.

"So... she started avoiding you right after you returned from the business trip?" Kade stroked his chin.

He sneakily shooed away the ladies hovering nearby, giving them lingering pecks that made them blush.

Ronan eyed him in disgust.

Uncaring of his look, Kade continued, "And she is still ignoring you...?"

Everytime Kade uttered the term ’ignore’, the atmosphere in the private room became heavier.
