Chapter 644

Ella was still racking her brains, trying to figure out what reward Lorenzo wanted, her stomach growling again.

+83)

Because Lorenzo hadn’t gone out, Ella was so hungry that she went downstairs in the middle of the night to find something

to eat.

But it was already midnight, and Lorenzo was still in the living room. He seemed to have just finished talking to Cecil about something, and they were about to go upstairs.

Ella had already descended two steps when she spotted him. She quickly turned to dash back to her room but slipped in her haste. Her scream echoed through the villa.

Ella lost her balance and fell backward. She reached out to grab something, but this time luck wasn’t on her side. She tumbled down the stairs.

At the same time, gasps rang out from the living room, and someone shouted, “Mr. Moretti!”

With a loud noise, Ella’s body finally landed. However, the anticipated pain didn’t come because she had fallen onto Lorenzo.

Lorenzo moaned under her. Both Cecil and Bernard stared at the scene, holding their breath.

Bernard was the first to react. “Oh my! Ella, you…”

The room fell into silence for a while.

Bernard said, “Why do you have such a vendetta against Mr. Moretti? If you want him dead, just say it. Why sugarcoat it?”

Bernard angrily scolded Ella while trying to pull her up.

Ella’s mind went blank. She was completely disoriented as Bernard pulled her up, her mind in a daze.

Cecil rushed to help Lorenzo. “Mr. Moretti, are you alright?”

Fine beads of sweat had formed on Lorenzo’s forehead. “Get a doctor.”

Hearing this, Bernard scolded Ella even more fiercely, “Tell me, who sent you to harm Mr. Moretti?”

“It wasn’t me!” Ella felt like a sitting duck, unable to explain herself. She wished she could just disappear. She thought, ‘My mouth, my hands, my legs… Why did they always betray me around Lorenzo?‘

Every time, she encountered Lorenzo. it seemed to end in disaster. She was utterly bewildered.

Bernard retorted, “Don’t lie! You’re in big trouble now!”
