Chapter 408 - 408 Inviting Dinner to the House
408 Inviting Dinner to the House
After contacting Nadia, Indri realized that she couldn’t stay still. She had to call Liam and urge him to marry her immediately.
Unfortunately, when she called Liam, Liam didn’t pick up her call. Even Liam didn’t let it ring and rejected her call straight away. When Indri called him again, the man’s phone was dead.
Indri knew that Liam was deliberately avoiding her. It made her really panic. “Mother!” She shouted loudly.
It just so happened that Merry was bringing food for her daughter. She immediately reprimanded her daughter when she heard Indri shouting loudly like that, “Don’t shout. The first three months of pregnancy are dangerous times. You have to be careful.”
Now, the child in Indri’s womb is the only hope for the Maheswara Family. Nothing should happen to this child.
Hearing her mother’s words, Indri sat up straight.
“Mother, have you seen the news? Liam and Christian work together. If they work together, Liam wouldn’t want to marry me…”
Indri frowned while intertwining her fingers anxiously. If she messed up with this opportunity, what should she do?
Should she…
.....
“Mother, if Liam doesn’t want to marry me, let me marry Haikal. Haikal told me that he…”
Merry swallowed when Indri was about to repeat what happened yesterday. “Indri, do you think men will appreciate something they have already thrown away?”
As a smarter person, Merry knew very well what Haikal’s intentions were. He wanted Liam’s company. But before that, Budi didn’t want to work with him.
Haikal is an evil and cunning man, the same kind as Budi and her. That’s why Merry knew what Haikal was thinking.
And...
Merry looked at her daughter. To be honest, there is nothing to be proud of about Indri. Everything Indri currently has is only supported by make-up.
How could a woman like Indri be able to attract Haikal’s attention?
“Mother, do you mean Haikal lied to me? How could he lie to me?” Indri stared at her in disbelief.
Indri felt what Haikal said was really sincere.
Seeing Indri getting emotional again, Merry rushed to calm her daughter down. “Indri, have you forgotten how Haikal treated you back then? If you forgive him easily, he will definitely not appreciate you. Think carefully.”
Indri felt her mother’s words made sense so she nodded. “Mother, how about we test Haikal again?”
“Indri ...” Merry looked at her daughter helplessly. But in the end, she said nothing.
Merry knows very well how stubborn Indri is. She will not give up on Haikal because Indri does not want to live a hard life. Haikal is a backup for Indri.
If that’s the case, it’s better to leave it alone for the time being. Merry could only keep an eye on Indri to keep them under control.
Seeing Merry coming out of her room, Indri was deep in thought.
Instead of waiting for uncertainty, why didn’t she act first? But who should she choose?
Liam or Haikal?
…
Right now, Christian is still at Liam’s company taking care of the ongoing matter. From the start, Christian was annoyed that Ella told him to help Liam solve this problem even though Christian didn’t like Liam.
When he heard Ella say that she wanted to take Liam out for dinner at their house, Christian’s face instantly darkened.
He had helped her, why would Ella want Liam to eat at their house? Why invite him to dinner together?
“No.” Christian immediately refused.
“Christian, Liam must be in a bad mood. Please be a little understanding,” Ella said softly. “I know you love me very much, right?”
As usual, Christian’s heart almost melted because of Ella’s request. He turned to the side and saw Liam who was busy. “He’s in a good mood,” he replied irritably.
Isn’t it possible that Liam is still confused and desperate after getting help from Christian? This favor Christian gave him means everything.
“Why does he have to come to our house and have dinner with us?” Christian said irritably. He was really sulking now.
Every time with Ella is a precious time for him. Plus, he had agreed to Ella’s request today. And Christian wanted to ask for the ‘interest’ from Ella’s request in the evening.
If Liam went to their house, wouldn’t it interfere with their time together?
“Can’t he?” Ella asked. After taking a deep breath at Christian’s answer, Ella hung up.
Christian rushed to call Ella again, but the ringtone said Ella was calling another number.
At the same time, Liam’s cell phone rang out. Seeing the name on the screen, he immediately lifted his head and looked at Christian.
Wouldn’t Christian be unhappy if Ella did this?
Of course Christian noticed it. Christian narrowed his eyes as he looked at Liam. His gaze turned cold as he asked, “You don’t want to answer the call?”
“I’ll answer it,” Liam said, picking up the phone.
On the other side, Ella’s worried voice was heard. “Liam, are your company’s matters resolved?”
“Don’t worry. It’s going to be okay,” Liam replied gently. Talking to Ella calmed his heart.
Christian noticed the expression on Liam’s face. Seeing the gentle smile on his face, Christian’s heart turned uncomfortable.
At first, he wanted to approach Liam and snatch the phone. But it looked very childish. So, he just stood where he was with a cold aura.
After feeling relieved, Ella invited Liam to have dinner together at Christian’s house.
Actually Liam didn’t want to come because he still had to solve his company’s problems. But he couldn’t bear to refuse Ella so he agreed.
At that moment, Christian’s face grew even more grim.
He felt that his presence there was getting weaker and weaker.
Liam and Ella chatted for a while. Just as Christian was about to explode at such neglect, Liam ended the call.
Unfortunately, promises have been made and must be kept.
So, after working hours ended, with a gloomy face, Christian went home with Liam.
Not a single person noticed that their car was being followed by a black car from behind.
In the car, Indri gritted her teeth. Liam wouldn’t pick up the phone from her so she came to see him in person.
But why did Liam get in Christian’s car?
Initially, Indri wanted to intercept Liam and talk to him. But when she saw Christian’s figure, Indri felt reluctant.
She just watched from afar, following them.
She wanted to see what was behind Liam and Christian’s collaboration.
