Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37: This lady is on a diet these days

Ella immediately moved to sit up but halfway through, her body plopped back on the bed. Her belly jiggled.

She exhaled a loud breath of frustration, turned sideways, propped her body on the elbow and pushed herself up.

’Knock knock knock’

"Coming!"

Ella opened the door and the face she least wanted to see greeted her vision.

"Sister, it’s really you!" Esther glanced at Ella as if she just saw another wonder of the world, ’’You are back to the university?"

Ella hadn’t even taken half a step back when the girl pushed the door open and welcomed herself in.

’’How come? Did Mr. King finally let go of you?" She turned to Ella and asked as if she was truly happy for her.

Ella did not speak much.

Esther took it as a cue that the previous incident must have severed the relation between Adrian and Ella for good. Maybe Adrian realized that this woman was such a frivolous slut, huh?

’’Sister, don’t worry. I will help you get in touch with Max...’’

’’You shouldn’t. Adrian won’t like it,’’ Ella cut girl off with a wave of her hand, ’’And I told you I am uninterested in second hand shoes,’’ she smiled.

The smile on Esther’s face faded gradually.

For some reason, Ella looked a little different than the last time she saw her. Again.

Was her face glowing? Or did she seem so genuinely happy?

Esther thought that Ella had only spoken those words about Max on a whim. But why did she look so serious about having to do nothing with him?

And... Most importantly... Was it merely her illusion or... ’’Sis, have you lost some weight?"

"I must have,’’ Ella shrugged her shoulders.

Esther thought of how she had gone on a run and a hint of urgency flickered in her eyes, ’’Sis, I will get you some of your favorite food. You look so sickly at this point. I cannot bear to see you like this at all...’’

Ella patted her head, ’’Only you think about me.’’

Seeing that the way Ella treated her hadn’t changed in the slightest, Esther was inwardly relieved.

However, when Ella continued speaking, Esther’s face changed.

’’But think of me a little less, Essie~ I am on a diet these days after all. All that sugar do me more harm than good.’’

When Esther left Ella’s room, she felt like her hits landed on soft cotton. She did not cry, she did not throw a tantrum and she did not even mention the fight with Adrian!

Ella’s calmness was getting on her nerves. She gritted her teeth and pulled out her phone before she started to type a text to Adrian but then she hit backspace.

Given the kind of man Adrian was, he would never have let Ella come to university.

Since he did it, it only meant one thing. He was losing his interest in her.

At a time like this, it would be inappropriate for her to bring up Ella in front of Adrian.

A glint flashed across Esther’s eyes. Once Adrian discarded Ella, it would be her turn to push herself forward.

Then, nobody could stop her from becoming Mrs. King.

Thinking of that, she caressed her nightgown, blushed, and rushed back to her room.
