The Naughty Wife of the CEO

Chapter 20 A World of Difference



Ella had not expected that he would care about her, so she gave a little start, and then she said in a nicer way, "Well, much better." Aiden nodded and seemed to be satisfied with her answer.

He patted the position next to him. "Come over. Sit here."

"Well, I might just stay here... If you want to say something to me, you can get it straight." Ella stepped back with a nervous look. Aiden chuckled. "You seem to be afraid of me?"

She sneered, "You wish."

That being said, she still didn't come over.

Aiden didn't push her. He put his coffee cup down on the tea table, and then tapped on a note. "Find out all the books on the list."

(He asked me to come, but only for finding books?)

Seeing Aiden continued reading the French newspaper in hand without further reply, Ella shuffled to the tea table and picked up the note. She was a bit surprised, since some books one the list were those French design books that she had longed to read but couldn't buy.

She glanced at the office, then moved a nearby chair to the large bookcase, and began to find books one by one according to the note.

About half an hour later, all of the twelve French books were found out.

Ella took the books, put them on the tea table, and said to him, "All the books have been found. May I leave now?"

"Yeah." He was still reading newspapers, and replied with a cool voice.

"Okay."

She had got only two steps when heard his voice again, "Take the books with you. Read them carefully."

Ella was completely shocked: the book list was for her!

Her happiness lasted less than five seconds, then disappeared. "These books are written in French, and I... am not good at French."

The perfect man raised his face slightly. There was contempt in his black eyes. "You know how to make excuses, but have no time to look up a French dictionary?"

"Well..." She shouldn't refuse, as he was so kind to lend her these original books.

Ella had just picked up books when the door of the office was open suddenly. Then she heard a pleasant voice. "Aiden."

He was kind of surprised, "Camila, what are you doing here?"

A young girl who looked around 20 came in. What a typical beauty. She was about 5 foot 6 and has good skin that you couldn't even see her pores.

Camila was dressed in a white lacy dress with a sweet smile and big sparkling eyes. She walk with jaunty steps towards Aiden, leaned over to look at him, and pouted. "Aiden, I've come back for a whole week, but you still haven't come to see me! Well, I guess you must be very busy, so I come to see you myself."

By this time, Miles was already standing at the door. He glanced at the office to see if there was any thorny issue. Thanks God, everything seemed fine... But Miles still started with a worried look, "Sorry, Mr. Hill. Miss Morrone has the elevator card..."

Aiden nodded and raised his hand. Then Miles gently shut the office door.

Miles's words let him remember that before Camila went abroad, he had given her an elevator card to the top floor. No wonder she could see him directly without getting past Mile.

Aiden looked slightly mollified, "Sorry, Camila, I've been kind of busy with work recently so I haven't come to see you. Hope you won't get angry."

Camila blinked at him, "If you go shopping with me tonight, I will forgive you."

There was slight indulgence in his eyes. "OK, I promise."

"Aiden, I haven't even had breakfast to see you. Do you have time to join me now?" Her voice sweet and innocent.

Looking at this girl who was just like an angel, Aiden's frozen heart thawed.

Aiden stood up with pleasure. "Let's go, I'll have breakfast with you"

"Great! Aiden, you are so nice to me!" Camila held his arms and shook like a little girl.

At this time, Camila noticed the woman standing beside the tea table to organize the book. Ella deliberately turned her back, so her appearance was not seen by Camila. "Who is she, Aiden?" she asked curiously.

Aiden did not cast a glance to Ella, but casually said, "Just a female employee."

His deliberate neglect made Ella relieved but a bit disappointed at the same time.

Even herself did not know why did she feel so.

Soon, Camila distracted her attention from Ella and said to him, "Aiden, do you remember? There used to be a Western restaurant near our house, but now it has become a Chinese restaurant! But the food there looks delicious. Should we try it?"

Aiden's voice was soft and steady: "OK, up to you."

"Aiden, if I order too much, don't blame me."

"You little fool, how can I blame you?"

He took her by the hand and left the office. Ella could still hear their pleasant conversation. It even made her envy,

She would not have believed that the man had such a tender side if she hadn't seen it.

Somehow, Ella was in a bad mood.

Just now, she has been treated as an invisible person. Aiden did not even say goodbye, but just left with the girl.

She shook her head and tried to get envy out of her mind. She shouldn't have such feelings.

Ella exhaled and left the office with the books in hand.

She went to the elevator, thought of Aiden's casual and bossy attitude towards her. It was very different from the way he treated with this girl called Camila!

A girl like Camila seemed to be born as a princess.

Ella suddenly felt kind of sad. When would their strange relationship end?!

After stepping out of the elevator and returning to her seat, Ella was still in a trance. She suddenly remembered Miles' words.

Why did he call that man a Mr. Hill?

An answer came to her. Ella scanned around, wanted to ask a person, but found out that all the seats were empty. She began to lose calmness. She hurried to check the group chat. There was a short notice for an impromptu meeting!

When she looked at her phone, she found the meeting had been on for twenty minutes!

So stunned as she was, Ella took the notebook and pen on the table and rushed to the conference room.

At the door, she bent over and gently pushed the glass door open, trying to crept to the seat left.

But she was spotted by Daniel who was talking on the spot. "Ella Williams, sit in the front!"

As he spoke, all the people in the quiet conference room turned to look at Ella.

Several designers even smiled smugly at her.

Everyone knew that Daniel hated those employees who were late. Doom on Ella!

At the moment, Ella's cheeks went hot. Facing all kinds of looks, she went straight to the direction of Daniel.

After she sat down next to Daniel, he reproved, "Ella Williams, if you were late next time, all your bonus will be cut!"
