248 Do It Again


    Christian opened a blue velvet box, revealing a sparkling diamond inside.


    The sparkle of the diamond looked real, much brighter than the one in the photo. The lonely diamond reminded him of E.


    He sat on the edge of the bed looking at E. At this moment, E was closing her eyes. Her breathing was regr, showing that she was really asleep.


    There was a feeling of satisfaction in his heart when he saw the woman in the bed was sleeping peacefully.


    He lifted the nket that E was using gently and pulled her hand carefully. Then he put the ring on E’s ring finger.


    The size is just right.


    Christian looks at it for a long time and feels so satisfied.


    His vision couldn’t deceive him. The ring fitted E perfectly.


    Christian’s gaze returned to E’s neck. He saw the ne that he gave to E. Both the ne and ring had a simple design, but still looked perfect for E.


    .....


    When she felt something cold in her hand, E subconsciously opened her eyes. The first person she saw was Christian who was smiling faintly. His gaze was fixed on E’s ring as if he was obsessed with it.


    Her fingers looked thin. Maybe E’s fingers weren’t this thin before. That only showed the suffering she’d gone through in the past five years. Although living thest few months in Christian’s house was much better than in a mental hospital, she still hadn’t returned to the way she used to be.


    “What should I do with you?”


    Christian sighed helplessly as he gripped E’s hand tightly. “Will they be able to give all of this like I gave you? This ring is very expensive. I’ll punish you if you lose it.”


    E looked at Christian in surprise. She did not expect that Christian had this kind of childish side.


    She should haveughed, but she couldn’t.


    Like there was a big hole in her heart that made her throat choke. Her palms felt warm from the grip of Christian’s big hand.


    Everything in front of her fascinated her. But sadly, her heart was already sore.


    She remembered when Christian spoke to her with a cold face. Christian had always been cold to her and always looked at her condescendingly.


    Christian’s coldness hadn’t changed at all, but there was something that made E feel much calmer.


    When E wasn’t looking, Christian would smile a little. His gaze was no longer the same as before. Christian looks at her in a different light, even though his way of keeping E by his side is horribly wrong.


    Unknowingly, E’s hand returned Christian’s grip.


    Christian was taken aback for a moment. He turned his gaze towards E who was now looking at him and then released his grip.


    Since E was holding onto that hand quite tightly, when Christian released it, his body tugged slightly. E had no strength in her body and felt her whole body limp.


    Howe? She tried to sleep but her stomach churned because she had no appetite. All day she just tried her best to lull herself into sleeping.


    “Christian...” She called hoarsely.


    Christian lifted his head to look at E when he heard the voice. His gaze looked a little depressed when he saw E’s current condition.


    He sat beside E and helped her sit up.


    “What do you want to say?” Christian asked softly. Almost all the stones weighing down on his heart had disappeared.


    At least, E didn’t hate him as much as before.


    “Why are you giving this to me? Do you pity me?” E asked. Since Christian couldn’t promise anything for the future, he wanted to give this ring as a constion gift?


    This was never the constion that E wanted.


    Hearing E’s words, Christian wanted to get angry. But seeing E’s appearance that was so weak now, his anger immediately evaporated. “No. I just feel like the ring really suits you well.”


    E did not understand this man in front of her. Everything Christian did left her feeling confused.


    “Hmm... Thank you,” said E. She leaned over and raised her arms to hug Christian. “If I leave one day and you can’t find me... please let me go.”


    The warmth of the woman in his arms was pleasant, but Christian felt that he would lose it soon.


    “I told you...”


    “I beg of you,” E said in a low voice.


    She took a deep breath. She was really tired.


    Christian’s eyes darkened. “If that happens, don’t ever appear in front of me again.”


    E nodded. “I will never appear before you again.”


    Christian felt heart sinking in a deep ocean. He really regretted what he said and promised E.


    But that is just an example.


    Christian wouldn’t let E leave here and everything E said wouldn’t happen.


    It’s rare to see Christian and E’s rtionship peaceful like this. Seeing the bruises on E’s neck that were still clear, Christian took the ointment and treated it. He cursed himself repeatedly in his heart, why couldn’t he control his emotions!


    E looked at him with a faint smile, but she didn’t say anything.


    Christian’s hands stopped moving for a moment. A strange feeling rose in his heart. He was really scared. He was afraid of what E was nning.


    But Christian couldn’t ask rashly. What if E gets mad at him again? What if they fight again?


    Everything will get moreplicated.


    If Christian knew that E would be this happy after receiving the diamond ring from him, he shouldn’t have thought too long. Why did he feel confused before?


    All his worries were in vain!


    ...


    At the same time, at the Maheswara Family home, Budi was looking at his daughter in front of him with anger.


    “I told you to keep an eye on him. Look at the stupid thing you did!” He was really angry with his daughter.


    He had told Indri to always keep a good eye on Haikal, watching his every move. Even though Budi is old, he has a lot of experience in the business world. He can also guess what the Adisurya Family wants.


    They try to take advantage of the marriage between Haikal and Indri, and find a way to attack the Maheswara Family.


    Budi hit the table in front of him hard, looking at Indri as if the woman in front of him was not his daughter.


    Indri, who was sitting across from him, couldn’t help but put on a bitter expression. Merry could not help but defend her daughter. No matter what Indri does, Indri is her daughter and she will always stand up for her.


    “Budi, Haikal is getting help from the Jaya Family. Indri did not think all this would happen. You can’t me her.”


    “Jaya family? Is the person from the Jaya Family... Liam?” Suddenly Indri shouted loudly. She looked at Merry and said, “It’s all because of that bitch! It must be because of E! E wants to take her revenge on us.”


    Budi just listened to Indri with a frown.


    Looks like his eldest daughter is acting up again.
