Chapter 81
Ella rushed to the hotel and was stopped by the receptionist.
“Are you here to meet Miss Reid! She left a key card for you, so you can go in by yourself
Ella suspiciously took the key card and murmured. “What on earth is Liana up to?”
She went upstairs with uncertainty, swiped the card, and entered the room.
The smell inside made her frown.
The air was thick with alcohol, mixed with an overpowering, seductive fragrance that felt almost vulgar.
There were bottles on the coffee table and the bed was in complete disarray.
The bathroom door was closed, and the sound of running water could be heard.
“Liana” Ella called out doubtfully,
There was no response from inside.
“What kind of game are you playing? If you don’t answer, I’m coming in”
She approached the door and was about to grab the handle when Liana’s scream came from inside.
“Don’t come in. I’m taking a bath. It’s not appropriate to see you now. You should go back.”
What are you up to? Are you messing with me?“
Ella was irritated, tempted to burst in and give Liana a piece of her mind.
Liana continued as her voice trembled. “I said it’s not appropriate. Leave now!”
Ella sensed something was wrong and thought. Is Liana seared? Could it be a home invasion?”
She had seen several cases of delivery people breaking in to commit crimes.
“Alright, I’m leaving
After pretending to agree, Ella quickly signaled to the bodyguard.
“Break the door. Once done, cover your eyes quickly. No one is to look inside. Got it?”
Ella considered that Liana was still a girl; her reputation needed to be protected.
The bodyguard nodded and forcefully broke down the door.
With a loud bang, the bathroom door fell to the ground.
“Ah!” Liana screamed from the bathtub
The large, deep tub was filled with bubbles, and Liana’s head was the only thing visible above the water.
There was another scent in the air, something Ella couldn’t quite
quite place.
Liana scolded, “Aren’t you supposed to be gone? I’m taking a bath, what are you doing?”
Ella responded, “You are taking a bath? I thought you were being held hostage. You can replace the door yourself as the price for messing with me!”
With that, Ella made a hasty exit.
Liana hadn’t even had time to breathe a sigh of relief when she felt a sharp point against her back.
Someone suddenly emerged from the water.
Jaden appeared in a sorry state, gasping for breath as if he might cough up his lungs.

He held a fruit knife and pressed it against Liana’s waist.
Liana shakily got out of the water, her clothes suill intact.
The water in the tub swayed, and she noticed it was tinted red.
She bit her lip, looking at Jaden’s injured thigh, couldn’t believe that Jaden had hurt himself to stay calm.
“Jaden, you’re humiliating me”
Jaden didn’t look at her, tossing the knife aside before quickly leaving, ignoring his leg injury.
He had to get back before Ella did.
If you dare leave. Il die right here, Liana shouted, picking up the knife and pressing it to her neck
She was so hysterical that she cut into her skin.
Jaden said coldly without looking back. Then do me a favor and die far away!
With that, he left while Liana collapsed to the floor with her eyes red.
She had lost, but she wasn’t willing to accept it.
Jaden had changed and turned better, how could she let him go?
Jaden hurriedly got into the car and Hank was very surprised.
you’re injured. We need to go to the hospital.”
“Go home, quickly. Ella is already on her way.
His Garc pale, enduring the sharp pain in his thigh
Hank could only follow Jaden’s orders.
Jaden rushed back and asked Hazel for some fruit to pretend he had accidentally hurt himself.
When Ella returned and heard the news, she was frantic, rushing him to the hospital.
Jaden was exhausted and fell asleep in her arms during the ride.
When he woke up, he saw Ella by his bedside, a sense of relief washing over him.
Ella felt someone was moving and quickly woke up, asking. “How are you feeling? Does it still hurt? How could you be so careless by cunting yourself with an applet The wound was deep; it nearly hit an artery!”
Her eyes were red and her eyelashes were damp,
Jaden gently wiped her tears, softly saying. “It doesn’t hurt.”
“You’re lying”
“Okay, it hurts, hurt
hurts a lot,”
“Really! I’ll get the doctor to give you
you some painkillers”
She panicked and was about to go to the doctor when he suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her back
She fell into his strong arms which wrapped tightly around her, his thin lips pressed against hers with an intensity that
Her mind went blank.
The kiss was like a storm, hut and fierce, completely different from the gentle, docile man slir korw.

This kiss was overwhelming.

After a long while, he reluctantly pulled away
my painkiller.
“You’re my
He leaned close to her ear and enunciated each word deeply.
Ella thought, ‘Oh my God, is he speaking romantic lines now? And it is so irresistibly, especially with those clear, carnest eyes!
Her face instantly burned.
Jaden said. “I want a child.
“What?”
Ella was stunned, wondering if she misheard it.
Jaden felt a bit guilty as he had shamelessly devised this plan to keep Ella with him.
If the matter was exposed one day, he still had her trump card.
“Ella, will you have a child with me?”
“sure
Ella couldn’t ask for more.
Then now…
Jaden was a bit eager, wanting to secure his position as soon as possible.
Ella was startled by his bold words and hurriedly stopped him
“Not now. Let’s wait until you’re healed. There’s no rush as we have plenty of time. The important thing is that you’ve come to your senses, which saves me a lot of trouble. Just wait a bit longer.”
Ella thought that he was still recovering and it wasn’t humane to rush.
Ella longed for a child, finally able to fulfill her grandfather’s wish.
Both of them had their agendas.
Later, Ella called Liana to ask about Jaden’s condition.
Liana shouted into the phone, “Do you think he loves you? He’s been lying to you from the wart, without any sincerity, Ella, you think you’ve won? No, we’ve both lost”
“Are you out of your mind?”
Ella frowned, feeling annoyed when she found Liana spouting nonsense and she didn’t understand a word.
Then, Liana laughed shrilly, sounded creepy.
“We both lost. You didn’t win against me. You’re just as pathetic, being led around by a man. I truly pity
