Perfect Revenge : CEO's Lovely Mistress

260 Look No Further

Ella put her teacup back down and walked over to the half-finished painting. She looked at the painting carefully.

It’s a landscape painting. A mountain surrounded by water. A majestic waterfall became one end of the waters. Everything looked very harmonious.

But if she looked closely, there was something missing from the painting.

The painting looked beautiful, but it was not alive.

“Do you have any ideas?” The man saw Ella’s expression and understood what was on her mind.

Ella nodded. She looked at the man doubtfully and asked, “When you made this painting, your heart was not very peaceful.”

The man’s feelings seemed to be very clearly displayed in the painting. “Can you change it for me?”

Ella smiled and asked, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll ruin it?”

“You doubt the way I judge other people?” That one question instantly made Ella’s worries disappear.

.....

She took the brush beside her and applied a green color to the barren-looking cliff. The green color symbolized grass. Because the waterfall was so strong, the grass was exposed to splashes of water and also pressure from one side so that the grass could not stand up straight.

She only drew some grass that made a beautiful painting come alive.

The man’s eyes lit up. He didn’t try to hide his admiration for Ella’s talent.

“You are very talented,” he repeated what he had said earlier.

This was the first time Ella had received praise from others saying that she was someone who was talented.

Ella blushed and tried to cover up her embarrassment by joking. “Don’t praise me too much.”

Ella felt at ease when she’s with this man. The main reason was because of this man’s friendly demeanor and he didn’t just look at her from the outside, like other men who admired her appearance.

What this man admired was her talent.

Ella knew that when people looked at her, the thing that stood out the most was her appearance. That was why Ella was used to seeing men’s slithering eyes.
She was sure that the man in front of her was not pretending.

“By the way, I haven’t introduced myself yet. My name is Luca,” the man extended his hand towards Ella.

Ella returned the handshake firmly. She could feel the man’s hands have calluses in several places, perhaps from holding the brush for too long.

“My name is Isabella Mahesawara.”

When he heard Ella’s name, Luca looked surprised. He did lock himself in his little studio, but that didn’t mean he didn’t read the news.

Ella felt a little embarrassed. Maybe she shouldn’t have given her full name.

The news about her had spread everywhere so that her name became famous.

Luca smiled again like before. “I thought the eldest daughter of the Maheswara Family was an ordinary woman with no talent.”

“Many people think that way,” Ella smiled subconsciously. She also felt that way.

Luca didn’t ask much. He just nodded and said that he was surprised because the woman on the news and the one he met were like two different people.

Ella waved her hand and said, “I’m not the eldest daughter of that family anymore. That’s why I look like two different people.”

“No. Those people have only seen you on the news, never knew you in person.” Luca made Ella laugh for the first time today. Her smile looks very bright.

Luca took a deep breath seeing it. He didn’t know what had happened for a woman like Ella to have such a hard life.

“Have you ever thought about using your identity to make your painting famous?”

Ella raised her eyebrows. It never crossed her mind to do that. What is there to be proud of?

She is the crazy eldest daughter of Maheswara Family and also Christian’s mistress.

Ella didn’t want to admit the two identities at all.

When thinking about Christian, her heart beats really fast. After that, pain spread from her heart to her entire body.

You could say, Christian’s influence on her was too great.

Ella looked around her and said, “Do you need an assistant? I... I’m having a hard time lately.”

Afraid that Luca would disapprove, Ella immediately said, “I also want to learn to paint here. If I can produce a good painting, I want to sell it and make money. Can you give me a place and guide me?”

Ella smiled as she pointed at the half-finished painting she had repaired earlier. She wanted to charge for the inspiration that she gave to Luca.



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Luca’s view of kids from rich families immediately changed drastically.

Not infrequently he gets guests from rich families who come to buy paintings.

Some of them don’t care about painting at all. They just want to decorate their empty room, regardless of the essence of the painting.

They even threw away some of the paintings in disgust.

They had a look of arrogance on their faces, as if they were the rulers of this world. Just because they have a lot of money.

Unlike Ella...

Ella was worried because she was afraid that she would be taken advantage of by Luca. “When I make money, I’ll pay the class’ fees to you.”

“We are friends. Don’t worry,” Luca said as he started to clean one corner of his studio.

Ella looked at him gratefully. She felt grateful because the man was willing to give her a place and not ask about her past.

Her past was so bad that Ella didn’t want to think about it anymore.

The day passed very quickly. The time that Ella and Christian promised was long gone.

That way, Ella didn’t appear in front of Christian again. She and Christian didn’t have any relationship anymore.

Ella rented a place to live near the studio. When she counted all the money she had, Ella felt dizzy. She planned to use the money to buy back the house her mother left her from Liam.

Speaking of the house, Ella recalled the cooperation between Liam and Haikal.

She had to warn Liam to be careful of Haikal. She didn’t believe the man. She feels Haikal has plans of his own that will destroy their cooperation.

...

-At Christian’s house.

Christian was seen sitting in the living room with a cold expression on his face. His bodyguards were standing in front of him trembling.

“You haven’t found her yet?” Christian asked in a low voice.

The guards looked at each other and then shook their heads.

“Hurry and try harder...” Christian paused for a moment and remembered his promise to Ella. “Just forget it. Don’t search for her anymore.”
