The CEO Wants To Divorce Me -
Chapter 45
She turned around and went upstairs, just as Beth came downstairs, the pink evening gown she was wearing was not off, and she raised her chin provocatively at Arabella, but her tone was gentle.
"Sister, do you see how nice my dress looks? Ezra bought it for me this afternoon, and I'm going to wear it to Emma's family dinner tomorrow night. By the way you haven't prepared your evening gown yet, I guess you don't have to because you won't be able to go either, will you?"
Arabella didn't even bother with her, walked quickly upstairs, went into her bedroom, locked the door behind her, took her phone and lay down on her bed, wondering how she was going to explain to Emma that she couldn't go to Emma's grandmother's dinner party tomorrow night.
If she said it was because Ezra wouldn't let her attend, Emma's hot temper would probably come back to haunt her.
Although Emma's family is also a dignified, but compared with Ezra's family, or so bad, if Emma offended Ezra because of himself, Ezra will do to Emma's family what.
Arabella doesn't want to get Emma's family involved because of what happened to her, so she plans to come up with a plausible excuse to lie to Emma, but how exactly is she going to tell her?
Downstairs Ezra and Beth sat down together to prepare dinner, looking at the exquisite food Beth said in amazement, "Is this all made by sister? I didn't know my sister had this kind of skill."
The housekeeper said: "Yes, Miss Beth, all these dishes are made by the wife, since she married Mr., she has been staying at home, in addition to learning to cook, but also learned flower arrangement and tea art.
It is so rare to know that the wife was a famous designer, but she gave up her career and ideal for the sake of Mr. She is willing to be a good wife at home."
Ezra gave the housekeeper a deep look, seemingly with a sense of reproach.
The butler had to say, "I'll go see if there are any more dishes in the kitchen."
Beth laughed lightly, "I can't imagine that my sister is quite popular, I see that these housekeepers and servants all seem to like her a lot."
Ezra grunted, "That's all she can do, she's so hypocritical."
Ezra picked up a spoonful of soup, tasted it, and then nodded, looking satisfied.
Beth saw him like this in her heart, she deliberately said, "So salty."
Ezra glanced up at her and ignored her. The soup was obviously not salty at all and tasted just right.
Beth giggled: "Ezra, I'm really a little jealous of my sister, no matter what she does you will tolerate her, and even after all that has happened, you have never thought of throwing her out of the house, your heart should be deeply in love with her."
This seems to have touched Ezra's sore spot, he threw the spoon in his hand, looked coldly at Beth and said, "Beth, it's true that I spoil you, but you should also pay attention to the proportion, what should be said and what should not be said, do you not have a number in your heart?"
Beth didn't expect Ezra to suddenly get angry, she spat out her tongue and hurriedly apologized: "Okay, okay, I know I'm wrong, don't be angry, I was just joking with you."
"Better not make such jokes with me in the future, let's eat."
The housekeeper served a bowl of soup, intending to bring it upstairs to Arabella.
He passed by Ezra only to have him call out, "What are you doing?"
The housekeeper froze, "Sir, I see that the wife has not eaten anything after half a day of work, I want to send the soup up for her to drink a little bit more."
Ezra said, "Take some of the dishes she made up there too, if she poisoned them, then I can't let her off the hook, we'll all die together."
The butler froze for a moment and a smile surfaced on his face, "Got it sir."
He went back to the kitchen, while loading dishes for Arabella, while talking to himself, "Actually, Mr. still loves his wife, right, although he always speaks so angry, but he is still worried about whether she has eaten dinner. Hey, these two people obviously have each other in their hearts, but because of those bad people in the middle, the relationship between the two people turned out to be like this......
At this moment, Arabella, who was upstairs, was editing a text message to Emma with her cell phone.
"Emma, I'm sorry, I suddenly got a bad cold, so I won't be able to attend the dinner tomorrow night."
"Emma, I'm so sorry, I got up this morning and suddenly got dizzy, Ezra called the family doctor for me, and I have a high fever from a cold, so I can't attend the dinner party tomorrow night."
"Emma, I'm really so sorry, I'm very unwell and my whole body hurts so much that I can't get up, so I can't attend the dinner tomorrow night."
Arabella edited several text messages, but eventually deleted them all.
She didn't know what reason to use to tell Emma that she couldn't go to the dinner tomorrow night, that she couldn't tell her it was because Ezra had put her under house arrest, that she wanted to use illness as an excuse, but if Emma knew she was sick, then she would have to come home to visit her again, and the lie would still be exposed.
What to do in the end? After thinking about it, Arabella made a final decision.
She listened attentively to the footsteps in the corridor outside and felt that the two people should be finishing dinner soon. She stood up and was about to open the door and go out when someone suddenly knocked on the door. "Ma'am, are you asleep?"
Hearing it was the butler's voice, Arabella opened the door.
"Madam, I have a bowl of soup for you, you can drink more or less, it's not good for your health if you don't eat anything after a busy day."
Arabella froze, her eyes red.
The housekeeper said, "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?" "Oh, I'm fine, butler, thank you." Arabella took the soup. "You're welcome, hurry up and drink it while it's hot." "Got it."
Arabella closed the door and walked to the dressing table with her soup. She looked at her haggard self in the mirror and felt sad.
And to think that those two people downstairs are enjoying her cooking right now, and Beth is probably bad-mouthing her again. Arabella felt sick and her chest was clogged.
But what can she do, since she can't die, then find a way to live well.
She took a deep breath and finished her soup, then pondered how she would plead with Ezra later.
It wasn't long before she finally heard Beth's laughter coming from outside the door, and I don't know what Beth said, but Ezra was actually laughing too.
In front of Arabella, Ezra never had a cold face, even the look in her eyes was always with dislike.
Arabella's heart was sore and aching, and she still didn't understand what she had done wrong.
Ezra stroked Beth's head and said gently, "Well, be a good girl and go into your room and rest, and I'll be with you when I'm done with my business."
"Don't worry, I'll be good today and won't barge into your study again, but you'll have to kiss me or I'll get angry oh."
Arabella saw the shadow coming in under the doorway, two people clearly standing in front of her door, they should be deliberately, deliberately show love in front of her, deliberately let her see this meticulous look of them.
Arabella covered her chest with her hand, unable to tell what she felt. After a while, she saw the shadows of two people finally parting, followed by the sound of the door closing.
After waiting a little longer, Arabella opened the door and walked out, seeing the light on in Ezra's study, she went over and knocked on the door, Ezra's voice didn't show any boredom, "Come in."
Arabella pushed the door in and Ezra looked up from behind his computer and saw that it was Arabella and his brow furrowed for a moment.
He must have thought Beth was coming in to keep him company. Arabella's heart sank, and the unpleasant words wanted to come out, but then she thought that she had come to show her weakness, and since she was showing her weakness she had to appear submissive and humble.
She walked over to her desk and tried to pull out a smile, "Ezra, I have something to ask you."
Ezra froze for a moment, then stopped what he was doing and leaned back in his chair, shifting into a comfortable position and looking at Arabella with pride and smugness.
"Miss Arabella Ruth will also ask for help, this is not like you, you are always very arrogant and capricious?"
Arabella said, "Will you please let me attend the dinner party at Emma's house tomorrow night?"
Ezra grunted, "Why should I say yes to you?"
"I've promised Emma that I'll go to the dinner, and Emma's grandmother is very nice to me, and it's her 80th birthday tomorrow, so it wouldn't be good if I didn't go. ezra, please, just let me go to the dinner."
Ezra surveyed Arabella, as if pondering her sincerity in saying these words.
Arabella was a little nervous, she didn't know what Ezra would say next to humiliate her, she was ready, as long as Ezra would grant her request, no matter how Ezra would humiliate her tonight and say whatever hard words she would accept. But what she didn't expect was for Ezra to nod and say, "Yes."
Arabella froze for a moment, thinking she had heard wrong, "What did you say?"
Ezra said, "I said yes, you can go to Emma's family dinner tomorrow night."
"Really?"
"Didn't you say that? You've promised Emma, and Emma's grandmother is good to you, you should go to her birthday to wish her well, I'm not that cold and heartless."
Arabella looked at Ezra gratefully, not knowing what to say, she did not expect Ezra to agree so easily, and did not say those sarcastic words to her, this is completely unlike the usual him.
"Ezra, thank you, I ......"
Before Arabella could finish, Ezra stood up, walked around the desk to Arabella, he hooked his finger under her chin and said with a soft smile, "But I have one condition."
Arabella froze, she knew Ezra wasn't so nice and wouldn't say yes to her so easily.
"What do you want?" Arabella asked.
"I want you to stay with me tonight, and I want you to take the initiative to cater to me and do as I command, and as soon as you make me feel slightly uncomfortable, I'll cancel what I just said."

Arabella stared blankly at Ezra, seemingly not understanding the meaning of Ezra's words, her dumbfounded eyes looked pure and innocent, completely like two people from her usual stubborn and cold self.
Ezra squeezed Arabella's chin hard and said viciously, "What, didn't you understand what I said, do you want me to say it more explicitly?"
Arabella's eyes were tearing up with pain as she shook her head, "No, no, I understand what you mean."
Ezra then let her go and turned around and said lightly, "Then go get ready, it's getting late, I'll be in your room in a few minutes."
Arabella didn't say anything, turned around and walked towards the door, her steps were light, the whole person was like a ghost.
Her submissiveness and patience made Ezra uncomfortable, and it was surprising that Ezra's heart was a little empty when she didn't argue with herself.
He frowned until Arabella was about to walk out of the room when he suddenly called out to her, "Arabella you stop!"
Arabella slowly turned around, her eyes unfocused.
"Ezra, what's wrong? Didn't you tell me to get ready? I'm going to take a shower and then lie down on the bed and wait for you, please, do you need anything else? Do you need me to get naked or put on erotic lingerie? Or maybe do you need me to call my sister over and the three of us together?"
