Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession-Chapter 131: She can’t keep using his money

Violet shook her head, "What she says is right. And deep down, you also want her there so it is only better if she goes there..."

Ella arched a brow, ’’Exactly my point. How can I let my little sister down? I must attend out parents’ wedding anniversary this year!"

Esther gently pulled her hand out of Violet’s grip, her eyes stormy. But a sweet smile tugged on her face, "That’s right... Sis is kind to me." She said through gritted teeth.

...

The next morning, it was past noon by the time Ella opened her eyes. Last night...

If not for Esther’s reminder, she had almost forgotten that soon it will be her parents’ wedding anniversary.

Knowing Esther, Ella knew that her parents thought that she probably became some rich man’s mistress.

So, after their fallout, they never reached out to her. And in her previous life, she was far too lost in her own mess to think about them.

However, this time, it was different. But there was one problem.

What was she supposed to gift them? Just thinking about it had kept her up till 5 am.

Ella was penniless. Although her career as a model was glorious, her downfall cost her quite a lot.

Back then, she had signed her contract with Hills Entertainment but when her scandal peaked, Max said she had to pay the company for all the resources they invested in her and the damage she had caused. And he convinced her that those were his father’s demands.

So, Ella emptied all her savings at that time.

After she woke up in the Eve Mansion, she did not lack anything. Adrian had given her a black card, a gold card, and even more options of cards as if they were jewelleries. Most people matched accessories. Adrian handed her cards to match her mood.

But Ella back then had no sense of crisis. She said she would rather die than take his money.

In this life, Ella had accepted his money before she moved to her dorms.

But she rarely used it to this day.

And Ella wanted to use her own money to buy a gift for her parents.

Suddenly, something clicked in Ella’s mind.

’That’s right! I can go to... that place...’

Ella immediately bolted to her bathroom for a quick shower.

An idea had just struck her. If that place still existed, it might just be the answer!

Two hours later, in an Elite residential area of Vermilion City.

"Miss, you can’t enter just like that..."

Ella pulled down the scarf from her face.

The old security guard looked confused for a moment before recognition suddenly dawned on him, "Miss Yu...?"

"Shhh... Grandpa, have you been well?" Ella pulled up the knot of her scarf to cover her face again.

"I am... If not for you, I would not have been able to afford my treatment back then... And it was only because of your financial support that my daughter could get married properly..." The old man looked up, "Miss Yu, I thought you’d be back early but you never showed up before..."

"It’s good to know that you are well now," Ella looked around. Since it was a working day, the place was mostly empty, "Grandpa, I need help from you."

...

King Empires.

The tall building was enshrouded in a gloomy aura.

The employees were all on tenterhooks. At a little distance, some of the higher-ups were also gathered, all looking cautiously in the direction of the entrance.

"What do you think is going to happen?"

"We will die, what else?"

A new employee was confused by the exchange between his colleagues, "Why is everyone so scared?"

The man who was sitting next to him patted his shoulder, "Because the President is late to work."

The new employee still did not understand, "Maybe, he is stuck with something..."

"President King is never late to work. You know what happens when he is late?"

"W-What happens?"

"When he’s late, his mood... it’s either a thunderstorm or a typhoon. And we’ve never seen sunshine."

Depressing sighs and whispers filled the place.

At this moment, a figure came to everyone’s view. His aura dominated the place before his steps did.

But when the employees looked up, they were shocked by what they saw.

By Adrian’s left and right, two small animals, one puppy and one kitten sprinted, following his huge strides.

Even after Adrian, Ji Yan and the two little creatures entered the VIP elevator, nobody could recover from their shock.

"Was... that even our President?" Someone whispered after a long time before gasps and murmurs broke out in the place.

Inside the elevator, the kitten rubbed her paw gently on the tip of Adrian’s shoe.

"Troublesome," Adrian frowned and picked up the kitten in one hand, holding the puppy in the other.

"Second Master, let me..." Ji Yan trailed off when Adrian’s cold gaze snapped to him.

He laughed bitterly in his heart.

Troublesome...? Second Master, do you even believe yourself?

Ji Yan was still having a difficult time accepting all that was happening.

Last night, with Ella gone, the second master worked till 2 am. After that, he retreated to the Master bedroom.

But after a while, Ji Yan saw him going to Ella’s room.

Today, the Second Master who disdained small animals suddenly declared, ’Take them along.’

When Ji Yan looked at him blankly, the man added, ’They are clingy.’

Ji Yan had then looked at the two animals who were sitting at a distance, minding their own business.

Then, it dawned on him... Was the second master really taking these two for his kids?

Could it be that watching his kids reminded him of his wife?

At this point, Ji Yan was convinced that the Second Master was indeed missing Ella.

"Second Master, why don’t you invite Miss Yu over?" Ji Yan spoke up the moment Adrian stepped inside his office.

Adrian halted in his tracks. The little duo in his hand jumped down and ran to the couch area to play.

’Woof’ ’Meow’

Seeing that he seemed interested, Ji Yan continued, "Her exams are over and today should be a holiday. Over the weekend, she has no classes and in that way, you can spend some time with her."

Adrian paused in his tracks. After a beat, he walked to his swivel chair, silent.

Ji Yan held his breath. Ddi Second Master not like the idea..?

Suddenly, Adrian said, "Call Grandma."

"Eh...?" What?!

Ji Yan was bewildered.
