chapter 1370
"In truth, I have known Mr. Giblo since a long time ago, " Nella spoke frankly, "I had met him at a business conference a few years ago. I knew he was the man I wanted to marry the first time I saw him."
Although Carla expected Nella to say something like this, hearing it in person still disconcerted her.
She used to think that Nella pursued Zayn for power and business interests. Now that she found out that Nella really loved him, she was perturbed.
"I was still young when I first saw him, so there was nothing I could do about my feelings for him, but now I'm the heir of my family's company. I now have the social position to date and marry him. I'm a woman worthy of his love."
Nella's tone was confident as if she was declaring war.
"I'm aware that you guys were married and have three children together. I'm also aware that he still has feelings for you, but none of these matters to me."
Nella took a look at Carla and continued, "What matters here is that I'm the most suitable candidate for him."
Freda clenched her fists listening to Nella.
"You think too highly of yourself, Ms. Gold, " Freda spoke up, "There would always be people better than you. There are still a lot of capable women out there. Besides, it doesn't matter how capable you are if Mr. Giblo doesn't like you."
"How do you know if he likes me or not?" Nella questioned.
"You won't be talking to me right now if he likes you, " Carla intervened, "You should be talking to him if you want to win him over. It's useless talking to me."
"I'm well aware of that. I'm here to tell you that I won't go easy on you anymore. I will do all it takes to win his heart."
"I wish you all the best then, " Carla said, "Stop the car."
The driver slowed down and gradually moved to the side of the road.
"You guys are not made for each other. He gets hurt every time he's with you. He would not injure himself if it weren't for you, " Nella added.
"This has nothing to do with you. He's willing to risk his life for me, but what about you?"
"I…" Nella could not answer.
Freda smiled triumphantly, feeling rather satisfied.
The car finally came to a stop and Nella took a deep breath. "Never say never, Ms. Lierger. Nothing is constant in our lives. He's willing to sacrifice his life for you, but that doesn't mean he will do the same in the future. I will become his wife one day."
"Let's see if that happens."
Carla shot her a smile and went out. Before she closed the door, she turned back and said, "By the way, you don't have to keep informing me about your next step in the future. You can just go ahead."
"Really? You'll regret saying this one day, " Nella replied, looking at her with a subtle smile.
"Till next time."
Carla closed the door and went back to Rogan's car.
Nella looked at her from the rearview mirror as the silver Rolls-Royce sped off and vanished in her sight ahead of her. "Just you wait and see, Carla Lierger."
"How dare she talk to you like that, Ms. Gold. The Lierger family has already fallen. She's in no place to talk down to you"
"Social status is not a big factor when it comes to relationships. Besides, Mr. Giblo doesn't care about this."
Nella was able to read the situation objectively. "Her trump card is her kids. They had a past, but she forgot that Mr. Giblo is not the only man who had a past with her."
