Chapter 49: Hubby responds in 0.1 seconds

Ella enjoyed watching the fake smile on Esther’s face fluctuate like the internet connection on a stormy night.

But eventually, Esther pulled an even brighter smile.

Ella smiled back, till her cheeks bulged and two dimples faintly appeared.

"How can it be, sis? I am happy with whatever makes you happy!"

The people in the hallway shot gazes at the sister duo who seemed to be so warm and lovable to each other, completely unaware of the undercurrents between them.

Ella was dragged by Esther to the open campus area of the university.

And from the corner of her eyes, Ella had already spotted the reason for their visit here.

And it was none other than Max who was standing with his ’fiancee’ at a little distance.

’’Ah... Sis... Let’s go from here...’’ Esther blocked her view.

Ella rolled her eyes.

This top-notch acting was surely commendable.

In fact, Ella had not looked in Max’s direction even once.

And Esther was worried that she might miss the sight.

’’Sis, please let’s just leave..’’

Ella shrugged both her shoulders, ’’Okay.’’

Seeing that she was willing to leave for real, Esther dropped on the ground with a yelp, ’’Ah! Sis, my ankle...’’

And this time, it was not just Ella but everyone heard her.

Even Max, who was standing in the distance, looked in their direction.

His ’fiancee’ also turned around.

Seeing Ruby, Ella flashed a warm smile.

Ruby avoided her gaze and turned to Max.

Max frowned and looked away.

The onlookers were also pulled in by the silent fiasco.

"What did I just see? Was it just an illusion or did the Imperial Goddess’s man just stare at the fatty?"

’’Heh, you don’t know the tea, do you? This fatty used to be Maxwell Hill’s girlfriend back in the time."

’’Huh? Why would a man like him even look at someone like her? If you ask me, she has neither looks nor character. She is not even worthy of holding a man’s shoes, let alone be with him.’’

’’Back then, she was considered a beauty herself. A great one at that. You could have seen that in the pictures from her modelling days but unfortunately, those have been taken down from the internet ages ago.’’

"So, what exactly is going on between our goddess, her man and this fatty?"

’’Ella Yu lost her man because of her loose character and now she must be regretting that so she is now trying to get him back. As for our goddess, she is his new legitimate fiancee and they legally got engaged a few weeks ago.’’

’’Hmph! This delusional homewrecker still won’t let them go!"

"Sister, I am sorry... I didn’t want you to see it...’’ Esther whispered when she finally stood up with Ella’s help.

Ella glanced at her silently.

Esther grew nervous under that calm gaze for some reason. Could it be that she realized...?

’’Of course, I know how much you care about me. How could you bear to watch me being sad over these things? Come, let’s go!"

Esther grew more and more confused as she watched walk away from the scene.

Despite her reluctance, she followed the girl.

’’Sis, have you really given up on Max? Even though he is engaged to Ruby now, I doubt he can bring himself to be heartless to you...’’

You can pretend in front of me. Let’s see how you will act strong in front of him!
