President's Naughty Sweetheart

Chapter 60 Schadenfreude

Two hours later, Ella was sitting on the deck of a yacht. Her legs were hanging outside and she had an ice cream in her hand.

She looked at Aiden, who was not far away, and thought that he had a nice stature.

Ella was reminiscent of what a psychologist once said, saying that people with nice stature were self- disciplined and they exercised self-control well.

It seemed like Aiden was a disciplined person!

"Ella, come here and collect the fish."

He was holding a fishing rod and slowly collecting the fishing line at the moment.

When Ella noticed that the fish had been caught, her admiration for him arose on its own. She quickly stood up and walked over.

"I didn't think that you could really fish!" She exclaimed as she saw the lively fish jump out of the water surface.

With a side glance at her, Aiden said flatly, "I still know a lot."

He noticed her patronizing at the sardine and said discontentedly, "Give me your ice cream and take the fish down and put it in the bucket."

Ella looked at the ice cream and handed it to him reluctantly.

Aiden shifted the fishing rod to her side, and she reached out to catch the fish.

He held a fishing rod in one hand and was eating the ice cream she had eaten with the other hand. Ella fiddling with the fish had piqued his interest.

Due to her unfamiliarity, Aiden knew that it must be her first time. She frowned and couldn't take it down for quite a while.

He reminded her, "Be careful not to hurt your hands by the hook."

His emotionless words made Ella look at him instantly.

Before she could feel this sentence carefully, the fish in her hand suddenly struggled and startled her. She slipped into the sea because of the water stain on the deck and she was barefoot.

Aiden had no time to stop her, watching her fall into the water. He looked forward and Ella had surfaced.

At the moment she fell into the sea, he wanted to jump into the sea to save her.

But he recalled Ella's personal information and that she had won first place in the county swimming competition in junior high school. Then he gave up.

Ella looked up at Aiden on the deck, and she was very unhappy.

In a foreign country, she only knew him, but he stood by and watched her fall into the water.

She couldn't help but curl her lip and said, "You are really cold-blooded. You didn’t save me and you just watched me falling into the water. You also have a schadenfreude expression!"

Aiden put the fishing rod on the deck. He squatted down and looked at her. "Why should I save you?"

What a word!

Ella said angrily, "If you fall into the water, I will definitely save you!"

He snorted coldly, "I don't need your help. Come up quickly, you have lost all the fish. We can only go back to the hotel to eat."

Ella was bathed under the sun at the moment. She felt free and wanted to swim for a while. She didn’t want to talk to him. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Seeing that Ella had no action, Aiden, who had gone back and forth, came up and said, "This is the high seas. I can't save you when sharks come."

She was shocked and said, "No way! Are there sharks here?"

He had lost his smile. "I'm not joking with you. Do you think this is a hotel swimming pool?"

Seeing Aiden with a severe countenance, Ella did not dare to disbelieve it. She immediately swam to the ladder of the cruise ship and quickly got on the deck.

Charles walked out of the cabin. He handed Ella a bathrobe and a towel.

"Thank you." She took the bathrobe and wore it.

Aiden said to Charles, "Go and tell the captain to return."

"Yes, Mr. Hill."

When Charles left, Aiden walked to Ella. He leaned over and whispered to her, "You lost my fish and you have to dress yourself as a mermaid at night as a gift to me..."

The metaphor in his words made Ella's ears hot, and she pretended she didn’t get it.

Seeing her playing dumb, Aiden reached out his hand. His finger just reached her forehead when his phone rang.

He took it out and saw that it was Camila. There was gentleness in his eyes that he never had before. Aiden touched Ella's head and left the deck.

Ella was wiping her hair with a towel in her hand. Her eyes were uncontrollably attracted by the phone call received by Aiden.

She followed him unconsciously.

When she got to the corner, Ella hid aside and did not dare to go any further, but she could still hear the voice of Aiden.

It turned out to be a girl named Camila again...A few minutes later, Ella wanted to leave. And Aiden was standing in front of her at the moment.

He said coldly, "How dare you eavesdrop!"

She argued, "I didn't hear anything..."

"Lie!" Aiden choked her neck and pressed her to the railing.

Ella struggled with breathing difficulty, "I really didn't hear anything... you let me go quickly!"

He gnashed his teeth and said, "Ella, you are just my underground lover. Don't have improper thoughts on me!"

She replied, "I wish you hate me! Still improper thoughts..."

He could see Ella's disgust revealed in her eyes, and his heart was inexplicably filled with anger and his strength was much greater.

She struggled more desperately, and her eyes overflowed with uncomfortable tears.

Ella blushed and shouted, "Strangle me if you dare to!"

Aiden looked into her eyes. This delicate face made him lose control again and again. He suddenly shook off and strode away angrily.

Ella, whose legs were weak and brain was oxygen-deficient, panted holding on the railing and scolded Aiden again and again as a perverted violent maniac.

When she recovered slightly, Charles appeared in front of her.

When Ella saw the sympathy in his eyes, she smiled indifferently. "Did you see everything just now? Do you think that I am ridiculous?"

Charles hesitated as if he had something to say.

When she saw him standing there without saying anything, Ella turned and left.

Charles said to her back, "Miss Williams..."

When Ella turned around, her face still didn’t look good. But her tone returned to calm, "Charles, what do you want to say?"

He sighed slightly and took the initiative to walk towards her. When he was very close to her, Charles looked around and whispered, "Miss Williams, there is a reason why Mr. Hill always chokes your neck..."

Ella frowned and looked at him.

Charles continued, " Mr. Hill 's biological mother suffered dystocia when she gave birth to him. At that time, she also encountered rare complications. Mr. Hill 's mother died shortly after giving birth to him..."

His words made Ella feel sympathetic immediately. Her eyes gradually eased down. She still didn't speak but looked at Charles seriously.

Charles continued with a heavy face, "The chairman, Mr. Hill’s father, has always blamed Mr. Hill for this matter. When he was a child, whenever Mr. Hill made a mistake, the chairman would choke his neck. Such punishment continued until Mr. Hill went to high school..."

"Later, the chairman was getting old, and Mr. Hill also learned to resist when he grew up. Although the punishment for Mr. Hill disappeared, the shadow in Mr. Hill 's heart was lingering. Mr. Hill always gets angry whenever there's something he can't control... I think you are something that he can't control." Charles looked up at Ella.

Ella said incredibly, "Me?"
