The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride
Chapter 2130
“I don’t need it. I don’t need anyone’s approval.”
He was well aware that everyone was more sensible than he was now.
Ask Ella? If she were likely to agree, would he have felt the need to keep her confined to her room?
Right now, she was probably the most sensible person of all. She had made a promise to her grandfather once, and now she was burdened by his feelings. She fretted over Paul, agonized over where Noah placed Rebecca in his life, and even worried about the entire Tretton, Reeves, and Minton families.
She had thought of nearly everything. Was there any point in asking her? So no, Noah didn’t need anyone’s approval.
Noah had always been after one thing: a satisfying outcome. And that hadn’t changed.d2
He couldn’t bear the thought of watching the flower he had nurtured from a seedling being plucked away by someone else. No one knew how much Noah had invested in Ella. Why should he just hand her over to someone else?
Aside from a deep chill and rage, Jon felt nothing else. Ever since four years ago, every conversation with his son had been fruitless.
Still, even until the night before, Jon had held onto the hope that his son would eventually get it right. Now, all that remained was a deeper disappointment.
After the anger subsided, Jon was left with an overwhelming sense of helplessness. Had he been too trusting in the past? Had he given Noah too much control too soon? The Tretton family had been placed entirely in his hands.
Noah was his only son. Without Noah, to whom would he pass the vast Tretton estate? Noah had successfully struck at his most vulnerable point.
Ella, witnessing Jon’s sudden calm and utter disappointment, felt a dull pain in her heart. “Uncle Noah, can you try to calm down?”
Noah didn’t move, or turn to look at her, his voice sounding eerily calm. “If I calm down, will you agree to be with me?”
Ella paused, then continued, “If you regain your composure, and find your reason, I believe you won’t be fixated on this issue anymore.”
Everyone thought what Noah was doing was wrong. He was smart enough to realize it himself.
Noah let out a bitter laugh, “Calm down? It was because I was too calm and rational before, that things have gotten to this point. If you’re not willing to stay by my side of your own free will, then don’t bother speaking. I only want the outcome I desire. I don’t want to hear the rest.”
Ella began to understand why Jon had grown increasingly intolerant of discussing matters with Noah. There was no reasoning with him.
Noah’s phone had vibrated countless times, the sound especially clear to Ella standing nearby. Jon’s phone also rang intermittently. Perhaps the events of last night’s gala had already reached the Minton family. Now they were likely demanding an explanation or were disrupted in their regular lives.
The media, once they sniffed out any scandal, clung to it relentlessly. And what happened last night was far from a mere trifle. She wondered what sort of chaos was unfolding outside.
“Uncle Noah, maybe you should take the call.”
It was him who should be calming Rebecca at this moment.
As soon as Ella finished her sentence, Rebecca appeared at the door. She practically stormed in, her gaze immediately landing on the few people in the living room.
Rebecca paused, then strode towards them, stopping in front of Noah. She looked up at him for a long while before letting out a cold laugh. “Noah, now that I’m right here in front of you, can’t you offer me an explanation?”
“I’m sorry about this morning,” he said, his indifference stinging Rebecca.
“An explanation?”
“There’s nothing to explain.”
Rebecca had no visible response to Noah’s words; instead, her eyes shifted to Ella. “So, you agreed to the arranged marriage because of her. And now, after all the twists and turns, you want to break off our engagement also because of her? Even in the end, you’d protect her at the cost of leaving me without a shred of dignity?”
Ella, caught by surprise, blurted out, “Break off the engagement?”
Seeing Ella’s reaction, Rebecca couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh. She rubbed her forehead, paced for a moment, then turned back to Noah. “She doesn’t even know? Are you planning to keep this a secret forever?”
Ella suddenly remembered his words from the night before about “handling it.” So this was his way of handling it.
