329 Giving Permission To Jealousy


    Christian headed straight to the studio where E was after talking to Jason. He let Jason, who was stuck at thepany, take care of all the pending work.


    After finishing her painting this morning, E worked on the front today. Luca was still busy finishing his painting so E took his ce to take care of the studio and sell the paintings in the front area.


    Due to her beauty and excellent social skills, she was immediately surrounded by many people.


    E didn’t think anything of it. She was just happy to be able to sell so many paintings today. What’s more, these paintings were made by painters who were not yet well known, still building their careers from the get go.


    When Christian entered the studio, he saw that there were many people surrounding E. He didn’t understand why a studio this small was suddenly swarmed by so many buyers.


    “Miss, can you tell me what this painting means?”


    “Miss, how about this painting? How much does it cost? I want to buy it.”


    “Miss, I also want to buy this one. Can you help me?”


    As soon as Christian entered, he heard many voices calling for E. And all those voices were male voices.


    .....


    Anger immediately rose in his heart.


    He thought E would paint quietly here, without being disturbed by anyone. But what did she do? She even got close to many men!


    In order to sell this mediocre painting, E had to seduce a lot of men!


    The more he thought about it, the angrier Christian became. He immediately walked in and looked at E with a cold gaze.


    All the men’s gazes were on E, unaware of Christian’s arrival. A man unknowingly nudged Christian and was annoyed at having to jostle with another man.


    “Tsk…” the man grumbled in annoyance. “Who are you?” The people who came to this ce were among those who were wealthy enough for the man to feel arrogant.


    In fact, his wealth couldn’t bepared with Christian’s.


    Christian looked at him coldly. “Do you deserve to know my name?”


    “You!” The man felt humiliated. With his eyes bulging, he looked at Christian screaming, “Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like this! Do you want to find trouble with me?”


    Hearing themotion, everyone immediately turned their heads back. Since there were many men standing before her, E couldn’t see Christian.


    Just as he was about to push his way through the crowd to check the situation, the man in front of Christian had already spoken. “Miss, someone is making trouble here. Don’t worry. I will take care of that person.”


    This was a good opportunity to show his prowess in front of a beautiful woman. He wanted to impress E.


    When Christian heard this, he got even angrier. He gripped the man’s cor with a grim face. “You want to be a hero in front of my woman? Are you looking to die?”


    The room fell silent so E could hear Christian’s voice clearly.


    Wasn’t this still business hours? Why was Christian there now? Did she hear wrong?


    Before she could think any further, she made her way through the crowd and saw Christian threatening the man. She immediately grabbed Christian and said, “Christian, let him go.”


    If there was amotion in that ce, Luca’s studio sales could also decline.


    When they heard Christian’s name, some people immediately stepped back. They know that name!


    The face of the man whose cor was gripped by Christian turned pale. He did not expect that the man in front of him was famous in this city.


    “This… It’s a misunderstanding. I just…”


    “Just what?” Christian pulled E’s hand so that she moved beside him while still ring at the man with an angry look.


    He felt that if he didn’t warn these people, E, this stupid woman, would definitely be kidnapped by someone one day.


    E had said several times that she didn’t want to be next to Christian. But Christian also knew that E had nobody now. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people intending to approach her right now.


    Christian’s heart grew even more ufortable at the thought of E with another man.


    The man opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say. He knew what Christian was like!


    E knew it must have been terrifying to be in that man’s position. Not many people could withstand the pressure from Christian. She felt so sorry for the man that she looked at Christian, trying to persuade him. “He just wanted to help. He thought someone wanted to cause trouble in the shop. Don’t be angry.”


    E said it in a very soft tone, hoping Christian would let him go.


    But that only made Christian even more angry. “Are you asking me to forgive him? You beg for him?”


    Why was this woman so kind to a man she didn’t know? E had never behaved like this to him. Even E used her gentle tone to plead with him.


    “Do you like him?” Christian looked at E intently, as if preparing to strangle him if she dared to nod her head.


    E was bbergasted at the question. Why was Christian suddenly if she liked him? Why did that thought suddenly cross Christian’s mind?


    Is this man stupid?


    E knew Christian’s IQ was very high. But unfortunately, his EQ was one hundred and eighty degrees opposite.


    “I don’t like him,” E said firmly.


    If she made a mistake, she and the man in front of Christian would have bad luck.


    When he got that answer, Christian’s heart eased a little. But that didn’t mean his anger was gone. “Then why are you defending him?”


    “He is a buyer.” E tried to contain herself. How could a man with such a high IQ ask such a stupid question?


    She was selling paintings and the buyer was the king. Of course E would do anything to defend him so the buyer wouldn’t be angry.


    “But he likes you.”


    Like a child, Christian kept sulking at E. He worried about everything, including little things like this.


    E suddenly chuckled. She pointed outside and said, “In this city, there are so many women who want to marry you. Am I angry?” E said it with a cynical look.


    Christian immediately let go of his hand and let the man fall to the floor. He looked at everyone around him with a cold gaze while hugging E’s waist. “Get out of here.”


    All these people bothered him. He wanted to be alone with E.


    They felt the hairs on their necks stand on end and left without a second thought.


    Christian lowered his head and asked E, “Are you jealous?” Before E could answer, he had already continued, “I give you permission to be jealous.”
