CHAPTER 140 - Separating Feelings

There were many people coming and going in the hall.

Ella followed his dad to socialize with a circle of people.

His dad saw a couple of old friends chatting again, and apparently Ella was a little too plugged in and a little awkward to keep company, so she gave her dad a heads up and went to the restroom.

He also saw that Eden was following his elder brother Brian in socializing at the moment, so naturally he didn't want to bother.

The moment she finishes going to the bathroom and fixes her makeup.

A woman, Zoey, suddenly appears inside the mirror.

Ella looked askance and continued to touch up her makeup.

Zoey turned on the faucet and cleaned her fingers as she said, "Miss Ford is a coincidence."

Ella answered.

"I distantly remember when Miss Ford came to the party and sarcastically told me I didn't know any better and was on Mr. Williams' arm. Things have really changed since then." There was just sarcasm in the tone.

"Yeah, I'm just reminding Assistant Xu to recognize the good and the bad. Some people don't deserve you to do too much for them."

Zoey blushed slightly.

Ella gathered her lipstick as she looked at herself in the mirror once more, "Ms. Duke be nice."

With that, he turned and walked away.

The dashing and domineering look was completely different from the woman she remembered.

This woman, why on earth has she changed so much!

It's like it's on.

Zoey is actually not stupid, she is very clear Lucien this kind of man which woman can not absolutely have, his interests are important to him, for him, the woman either to meet his rights or to meet his desires, who really fell in love with who will be unlucky for a lifetime, she even thought of Ella after marrying Lucien, how miserable life, but did not expect, this woman actually in the marriage before tearing the Lucien's disguise and swung to marry another man.

Although Eden is not reliable, but at least Eden never hide pinch, is a kind of person everyone knows exactly, and then bad is no more than that. But Lucien is not, no one knows Lucien's bottom line in where, no one knows he can be bad to what extent, at least she followed him all these years to see over his means, really often people can not reach.

If she hadn't tried to climb up on Lucien, she wouldn't have been able to follow this man.

Her eyes twitched slightly.

Walking out of the restroom, he sees Lucien in the distance with the obligatory departure of Ella.

Even if there was that slight cognitive change of heart towards Ella, it wouldn't change the fact that she had to yank the woman down from her high horse.

After all, she's now helping Lucien do things for monetary gain, and anyone who is an existential threat to Lucien is naturally her enemy.

I have to say, I've learned a lot about hard-heartedness over the years following Lucien.

......

The back garden.

Ella is shackled out by Lucien.

Just finished using the restroom, as soon as she came out, she saw Lucien standing there, she thought he was waiting for Zoey and didn't draw attention to it, but she didn't realize that as soon as she walked over, she was dragged directly towards the other side by Lucien, and wanted to yell, but then again, she didn't want to cause unnecessary strife.

Lucien also knew very well that it was impossible for Ella to make a real fuss with him on such an occasion, and that in high society, many things were a loss of face on both sides.

Ella is so smart right now that she naturally doesn't want to ruin her reputation for him.

And it's obvious.

How is Ella and Eden's reputation better than his now.

He's a classic scumbag now.

No matter how he acts, in the eyes of outsiders, he's cheating, he's being repudiated, he's destroying all the image he's built up in his last life.

The culprit in all of this is, Ella.

"Get off me!" Ella moved her hands than, her face visibly hard.

Lucien had a tighter grip at that moment.

The thought that he had lost so much because of this woman made him want to beat her to death at this moment!

"Lucien, still trying to bark like a dog aren't you?" Ella doesn't struggle anymore, she just looks at Lucien coldly and threatens.

Lucien grabbed her hand, visibly stunned at that moment.

"What, you thought Jonas would keep it from me." Ella sneered.

Naturally, he's being reminded of the last time he was threatened by Jonas to kneel and even learn how to bark.

"I'll count to three. If you don't let go of me, big deal, we'll be fish out of water!" Ella's eyes tightened.

Was about to speak.

Lucien let go straight away.

It's just that you'll be threatened by Ella.

It's just that I think this woman is capable of doing anything when she's really pissed off.

He didn't even know why on earth the woman had changed so much.

It used to be completely inside his control, and now it had inexplicably changed and become so complete.

He'd even heard that she'd made a name for herself in the few days she'd been working at the Ford Group, and that she'd driven her dad's biggest nemesis out of the company.

When the hell did this woman become so arrogant in her abilities!

Lucien really can't figure it out.

Can't accept, either, that Ella has changed so much.

He was adjusting himself.

Frantically repressed adjustments to his emotions.

He said, "I'm sorry Ella, I just got impulsive."

Ella's eyes fluttered.

The next moment really laughed at the irony.

So Lucien has to keep pretending in front of her?

"Not just just now, but that time before as well, it was my jealousy that made me do what I did to force myself on you, and I actually regret it."

"What you probably regret is being videotaped by Jonas." Ella sneered.

"Jonas did embarrass me, but what I blame myself for the most is that I did that to you." Lucien suddenly seemed to change, to become just like he was before again, masquerading as a nice guy to approach her, to cajole her.

Did Lucien really think that he was so easy to coax?

She said, "Lucien, you can keep pretending if you want to, but I can tell you very plainly that everything you're doing is wasted on me, and it probably isn't wasted, after all, it disgusts me."

Lucien's emotions are clearly crumbling a bit.

Ella didn't even bother to look at Lucien more than once, being literally unable to say a word to him.

Suddenly she couldn't figure out now what the hell she saw in Lucien in the first place?

She walked past him.

The feet just crossed over.

"Ah!" Ella screamed.

Lucien suddenly pulls Ella by the hand, and Ella, unsteady, plunges into Lucien's arms.

Ella's face was hard to see.

She was about to resist that moment.

Lucien released her in a hurry, just a very gentlemanly look, "Ella you'd better be careful in such high heels."

Ella frowned.

Lucien, is this man having a nervous breakdown because he's been hit too hard for a while?

"I can't be around you all the time now either, so take care of yourself." He smiled gently, his look still looking spoiled.

Even reached out at that moment, trying to stroke Ella's hair.

Ella avoids it.

The moment he avoided it, his afterimage steeped in Eden, who was standing not far away.
