299 The Second Non-negotiable Request

“I don’t know if I can ever look into your eyes and say that I forgive you or that I love you.” Ella pulled her hands free from Leon’s and gradually rose to her feet. She took a few steps away from him, to clear her mind and think objectively.

Sitting so close to Leon and listening to his endless pleas was messing with her emotions. She felt a bit weakened by his broken gaze and his gentle touch.

So she decided that for her to exert her full revenge on Leon’s infidelity, they would have to stay away from each other.

“I never dreamt in my entire life that someone I call my husband and the love of my life would hurt me this much. I never dreamt that insisting on bearing your child would amount to so much pain. You claim you love me, but you obviously do not understand what love means. But, I’m going to teach you what it means to respect and cherish your wife’s loyalty.” Ella’s eyes lit up with a deadly glow.

Leon heaved a sigh of frustration as he raked his fingers through his hair. He watched in dead silence as Ella slowly walked back to the couch and picked up her clutch and her phone while ignoring his existence.

She carefully cleaned her face and retouched her makeup, to mask her pain and tears. Then she strolled over to Xia’s desk, picked up her gun, and destroyed Xia’s laptop and mobile phone.

Feeling a bit satisfied with her work, she turned back to Leon and said, “are you ready to grant my second non-negotiable request?”

“Yes!” Leon’s depressed voice came out as a whisper.

“Good! I want you to end every business relationship you have with the Chu family in the next twenty-four hours. I do not care how much billions you going to lose or the damage your company will suffer.”

.....

“Done!”

Although Leon already made up his mind to dissolve his relationship with Xia Chu, he was unhappy with Ella’s request.

Relinquishing favorable businesses with great potential was something he considered absurd in his line of work. Losing money or businesses wasn’t his style of operation. Hence, the thought of losing a business that took him months of negotiation and hard work to acquire was like jumping out of a flying airplane without a parachute.

Another mind-boggling thought that seemed to be crippling his heart was the billions of dollars he would be made to pay as penalty for breaching the business contract.

However, knowing that this would be a heavy price to pay in other to save his young marriage, he decided to go through with it.

“What about your third request,” Leon asked. He was a bit worried at what other tormenting scheme Ella had planned for him.

“I’m not done with the second.” Ella hissed. “For your tramp, inform her to leave the city this very moment if she still values her life. If I was able to get to her as Sabrina Dove, killing her wouldn’t be a difficult task for me.”

Leon’s eyes widened at Ella’s statement. He couldn’t believe she had any connection to the untraceable Sabrina Dove. This made him wonder if Ella had known from the onset that he was having an affair. He wanted to just say okay but his curiosity got the best of him.

“How long have you known that I was having an affair?

“Does it matter? Ella shot him an icy stare. “Would it make you happier if I told you that your sickening affair was the reason I almost lost my life yesterday?”

“No!” Leon replied weakly.

“So stop provoking me with your useless questions.”

“For my third request, I’ll let you know when you return home this evening. In the meantime, you no longer have any say in who I chose to keep as friends and how I choose to live my life going forward.” Ella hissed loudly and left the office, slamming the door forcefully.

On her way toward the elevator, she called Denise’s mobile line and informed her that she was done with Leon.

“Are you all right?” Denise asked in a worried tone.

“Not really, but I’ll be fine. All I need to do is go back home and rest my head for a few hours,” Ella said as she massaged her aching head.

“That sounds like a great idea. I’ll meet you at your place when I get rid of Tom.

“Okay, Mama bear.” Ella ended the call and got into the elevator.

Just as she was stepping out of the elevator, the sight of Leon standing before her and staring into her slightly terrified eyes made her almost let out a yelp.

She took unsteady steps backward, as he slowly walked inside the elevator and hit the button for the last fall.

Feeling the elevator move upward, her eyes began to spin and her head suddenly feel light from Leon’s intense stare.

She couldn’t explain how he had magically left Xia’s office and gotten down to the last floor before her.

‘Did he sprint past me like a ghost while I was talking to Denise on the phone? Why didn’t he stop me on my way out of the office if he felt like saying something to me? Is he planning on... No, he wouldn’t do such a thing.’ Ella found it difficult to control her thumping heart or her heavy breathing as Leon gazed into her slightly red eyes.

Although his face was void of expression, his eyes bore a thousand emotions that Ella found it impossible to predict his next move.

Swallowing her fears and standing her ground, she spoke in a fearless tone.

“Leon, what’s the meaning of this? Didn’t I tell you that we will continue our discussion at home? Are you trying to force me back to your office?”

“No, I’m taking you home. I can’t let you walk out of my company looking this heartbroken for everyone to see. I’ve already called John and he’s currently waiting for us at my private car park. We could take my secret elevator to the car park without drawing attention to ourselves.”

Although Ella saw reasons for Leon’s worries, she didn’t want to give him the satisfaction that he still had the power to decide what was best for her.

So, she patiently waited till they got to the car before telling him off.

“I no longer need your company, dear husband,” Ella scoffed as she got into the car. “Go back to your work and see to it that my second request is executed.” She said before slamming the door in his face.
