Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7: A pampered princess, a rare treasure!

''Call you here? When did I call you here? Utter nonsense!'' Ella pushed the man away with all her might.

Max had a lean stature and he barely worked out so his posture shifted and he staggered a bit under the force. His handsome face even looked a little pitiful in the dim lighting. Like a lover who had been betrayed.

In her past life, Ella had been moved to tears when he still showed concern to her after she spent a night with Adrian, thinking it was Max.

Her relationship with Adrian worsened because she had uttered Max's name. But Max consoled her through it all, saying that he knew her heart.

And her past self felt like this was the man she would carve her heart out for. Now, she found it laughable.

The man who got engaged yesterday was here to question somebody else's wife's faithfulness. She was not righteous and she had never pretended to be but the self-proclaimed righteousness of this white lotus man was as laughable as it got.

''I had left three roses on the gate. And all of them were on the ground. That's your way of telling me that it is safe for us to meet. Now you are pretending that you know nothing?" His brows furrowed as he looked at her in disappointment.

''Heh~ What roses? What signal? How hard is it for roses to drop on the ground in the wind, Max? Are you being silly now?" She rolled her eyes.

''I am not being silly. You are. Are you so blinded by his wealth and background that you cannot see things clearly now? What happened to our promises of forever?" Max could not understand why the woman whose world revolved around him suddenly acted like he did not matter, ''Adrian King is a beast. I know what he did to you to make you this docile but it's time that you wake up now. If not, don't come crying to me later...''

To Max's endless preaching, Ella rubbed the corner of her eyes lazily and stretched her arms, ''Nonsense. Adrian is like a pampered princess, a little prickly, but delicate, rich and beautiful. And what more, he has no other woman staking claims on him so he is completely mine. What would he need to do to me? I am willing to give myself away to such a rare treasure!"

''You... You... Fine! Remember what you said today,'' Max stormed off.

In the darkness, Ji Yan nearly suffered a stroke. P-Princess? Delicate and prickly? Rare treasure?

He doubted if this woman had started doing drugs as a new hobby.

What nonsense was she spouting?

He did not dare to look at his Boss, but when he did... he was struck speechless again.

Even for a man, he realized that their Boss was a rare beauty. But still, was it alright for Miss Yu to put it like that?

And why did it seem like his Boss wasn't exactly as angry as before?

Ella stood in her spot for some time even after Max left.

Whether it was her illusion or not, she felt like the deathly aura in the air had also dissipated.

Adrian had left.

Her body turned a little soft, finally free from the pressure.

In the past life, all these incidents had resulted in violent outbursts from Adrian—not directed at her—and violent responses from her that were directed at Adrian and everyone around him.

Max was not lying. On her way out, she had seen those roses that were their form of communication during her stay in the mansion. And she knew the meeting between her and Max was eventual.

But everything played out in a better way than expected. Things transpired in front of Adrian's eyes only. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
