237 Do You Deserve Me?


    “E, I see that you’ve really prepared such an awesome gift for me.”


    E’s hand that was holding the small fork immediately stopped. Then, she looked at Christian with a sad face. “I will change the giftter. Or I willply with all your requests tonight. How?”


    E knew that this was her fault. She was so focused on her own problems, on her desire for revenge, that she forgot about other important things. One of them was how to make Christian happy on his birthday.


    Isn’t a birthday an important day for someone?


    “You’ll see for yourself,” Christian said coldly, handing E his cell phone.


    The photo shown on the screen made E’s face unsightly. But she looked like she’d expected Christian to receive such a photo.


    It was a photo where Liam asked her to meet Haikal.


    “Did Nadia send it to you?” E raised her head to look at Christian while frowning.


    “Are you admitting that this photo is real?” Christian doesn’t care who sent this photo. The only thing he cared about was, E was with another man.


    .....


    He remembered thest time E begged him to let Liam go. But in the end, E still kept in touch with him.


    Plus, it’s not only Liam in the photo, there was also Haikal.


    And Haikal, above everything else, was E’s ex-lover.


    “What did you promise me?” Christian said calmly. However, the calmness in his voice sounded far more sinister.


    He didn’t hesitate when he went against his grandfather just to defend E. But in the end, E actually replied to him in this way. How could she do it to him?


    How dare she!


    E put down her fork and looked at Christian. “I have something important to talk to him about.”


    E didn’t tell Christian the contents of their conversation. From Liam and Haikal’s conversation, E knew that the two of them would work together and Liam would take back her mother’s house for her.


    Soon, E could leave Christian and this ce. E had no intention of getting involved with Christian again.


    All she needed to do now was keep Christian from finding out about all this n. If Christian found out and interfered, things would get even moreplicated. The chances of failing would be even greater.


    “What can he do for you? Do you think I can’t do it?” Christian was really angry. Why did this woman in front of him keep lying to him?


    “I can’t tell you,” E replied.


    She really couldn’t mess up this n. This n was her only hope of getting the house her mother left her, the house she had asked Christian for but Christian refused.


    Christian got to his feet and kicked the chair. He circled the table in front of him and stopped in front of E. His hand immediately grabbed E’s hand roughly. “Can’t tell me, huh? You are mine. You can’t hide anything from me! I can make your life much worse than death.”


    “Instead of threatening me like this, is there anything else you can do for me?” E pped Christian’s hand in anger. Her eyes fell on Christian’s as if challenging the man in front of her.


    The man in front of her was so perfect. Even when he was angry, he was still handsome. Too bad his attitude was not easy to tolerate.


    At first, E wanted to stay by Christian’s side until all her revenge ns were over. But sadly, she couldn’tst much longer. She’d had enough...


    “I said I’m tired!” E said. “I am also human, I also have my own life. I’m not a fucking pet that will stay loyal to you as long as you pity me and feed me. I can also get angry when you treat me badly!”


    “Have you gone mad? When did I treat you as a pet?”


    Christian really wanted to go crazy. Never had he ever felt this angry, especially over a woman. What’s wrong with him?


    He had tried his best to make the woman in front of him happy.


    But unfortunately, his knowledge of love was zero. He didn’t know how to treat women, nor how to please them.


    “If I treat you like a pet, do you think I will grant all your wishes? Do you think I will apany you to Haikal and Indri’s wedding without an invitation?”


    Never once did Christian do anything out of the ordinary. But he would do anything for E.


    Only for E.


    Eughed bitterly. “Then, if I’m not your pet, what exactly am I? Your lover?”


    E’s voice trembled slightly as she said that.


    For a moment, E wondered what she should do if Christian said yes. If it’s true that Christian considered her his lover, did she still have the right to stay beside Christian?


    But, sadly, a secondter, E realized that she was overestimating herself.


    It’s all just a delusion that would nevere true.


    “A lover? Are you worthy to be my lover?” Christian’s eyes reddened with anger. He felt disappointed because E got angry when he confronted her.


    He tried hard not to hurt the woman in front of him by clenching his fists tightly. But his mind seemed to be out of control.


    What sin had hemitted in this life that he met such a troublesome woman like E.


    “I don’t deserve to be your lover? Then? Are you worthy of me?” Anger seemed to swallow all of E’s conscience.


    She didn’t do anything wrong, why should Christian treat her like this, every day and every moment? Was Christian so great that he could belittle her like this?


    Aren’t they both human?


    “Do you dare say it again?” Christian frowned.


    He didn’t expect the woman in front of him to still have the courage to refute his words.


    “I said, if I don’t deserve you, do you deserve me? Not!” E looked straight at Christian.


    E felt like a woman with no self-respect now. It’s true that she doesn’t deserve to be with such an extraordinary man like Christian. But her pride did not allow her to admit all that.


    Without that self-respect, what else would E have?


    Unknowingly, Christian lost control with his emotions. He raised his hand to grip E’s neck.


    Nathan, who was still at the scene, was shocked and hugged his father’s thigh. “Father, let go! That old woman could die!”


    Christian’s grip was really strong. Plus, because of the anger he was feeling right now, his strength had be uncontroble.


    His gaze didn’t show his usual indifferent look. Now, there was a zing fire that made his eyes sparkle.


    E felt her breathing grow heavier. Her brow furrowed, but she kept her eyes straight on Christian. She would never apologize.


    The gaze seemed to prate Christian’s body, making his hand tremble slightly. It was also E’s gaze that brought Christian’s senses back to his body.


    The sound of a loud thud echoed right after.


    E fell to the floor like a helpless doll.
