He was relentless in tormenting her.

Despite being brought to tears and screams, Ella was known for herfiery spirit. She even managed to scratch Leslie's arm.

Uninhibited, she shouted, "Fine! Let's call it quits then. I'll replace myselfanother man. I refuse to believe that someone like me can't replace a manto sleep with. What makes you so special?"

“This damned guy! What makes him better than other men?"

The more aggressively she yelled, the more intense Leslie became."How dare you say that?! I'll kill you!"

The entire night, Ella's voice echoed in the room. The mansion'sservants dared not eavesdrop. Every time Leslie brought Ella back, itsounded like a murder was taking place.

Leslie finally had enough.

He got up and headed to the bathroom for a shower. When he cameout, Ella was still there.

She had donned one of his shirts, leaving a couple of buttons undone,and leaned against the bed, smoking. She exuded an alluringdemeanor.

Leslie chuckled. "You just cried your eyes out, and now you're trying toact seductive?”

He casually took the cigarette from between her fingers, taking a draghimself. "What's a woman smoking? You better quit."

Ella, unusually, didn't retort.

Leslie leaned against the bed, smoking, while she softly traced circleson his abdominal muscles with her slender fingers. Her voice turnedtender. "Are you calm now?"

Leslie glanced down at her. "The swelling has subsided, but the angerhasn't."

Ella moved in for a kiss.

Her subtle tricks were not lost on Leslie. He knew all too well that it wasall for Zoe. Otherwise, she wouldn't have laid there quietly. She wouldhave left a long time ago.

Leslie grabbed a handful of her long hair with one hand andextinguished the cigarette with the other.

He calmly said, "Regardless of Zoe's feelings for Mason, she's nowMrs. Lockwood. That woman openly attacking Zoe is equivalent toslapping Mason's face. The only reason Mason didn't react wasbecause he probably wanted Zoe to beg him to."

Leslie smirked. "But she won't change her mind, will she?"

Ella was stunned.

Sitting up, she still couldn't comprehend. "Are you saying that Masonintentionally ignored it?"

Leslie found it tempting to use the cigarette to burn her.

He got out of bed, dressed swiftly, and fastened his belt while speaking."Zoe knows it herself. Mason is ruthless in this matter.”

He looked at Ella. "If you're tired, you can stay here for the night."However, Ella immediately got up.

She changed out of his clothes and into her own in front of Leslie. Asshe left, she casually draped her arm over his shoulder. "I never spendthe night at a sugar daddy's house."

Even though she said it with a seductive tone, Leslie saw through her.He pinched her chin and observed, "You've been used so many times.Even if Noah comes out of prison, he probably wouldn't want you."Ella felt a sharp sting.

No one knew that she had been assaulted as a teenager, causing herto live in a shadow. She had never been worthy of Noah.

However, she laughed carefreely. “Yeah, you fit me the best, Mr.Leslie."

Leslie sneered. "You have quite the imagination.

Tears welled up in Ella's eyes.
