Reborn: Sly Wife's Obsessed Tycoon Husband-Chapter 13: No mistress; I only have you
Chapter 13: No mistress; I only have you
Ronan paused for a moment but in the next moment, his eyes finally brightened, ''Have you finally figured it out? As a doctor, I can assure you that these things might seem trivial when looked at separately but when I summarized your entire tragic relationship with her, you should be able to grasp the true nature of things.''
When Adrian turned around, Ronan quickly followed the man, ''Are you going to divorce her?"
''I will cook,'' Adrian said calmly and then proceeded to the kitchen.
Ronan nearly tripped, ''Hey, can you even cook? Wait... earlier, didn't you tell me you have two international deals back to back at the company and you don't have time for a sleep therapy session?"
When Adrian entered the kitchen, the row of chefs and servants stepped back with their heads lowered. Not a single one of them dared to look up as if it was an utter blasphemy to see this man cook.

On the kitchen island, there was a wide variety of dishes and it bewildered Ronan, ''You...'' He turned to the servants, ''Why did you not serve the food if it was ready?"
''That... The food is served only after Miss Yu is at the table.''
''On whose orders?" Ronan eyed them in disbelief.
Everyone looked at Adrian in unison, their gazes speaking volumes.
Ronan pulled at his hair violently yet in the end, he could not refrain himself from speaking, ''What the fuck! You don't want to eat before she sits at the table but that woman doesn't even breathe in the same direction as you! If she saw you on the ground, she would shove her face underwater to breathe.... hmm... hey, hey, why are you handing me your phone? Huh... pancake recipe...?"
''Help me recite the recipe,'' Adrian rolled his sleeves as he looked at the kitchen counter with narrowed eyes.
''You... I am a godforsaken doctor.''
''Godforsaken, indeed,'' Adrian gave him a fleeting look.
At this point, there were sounds of unhurried footsteps.
Finally, the listless and bored looking Adrian shifted his gaze in a particular direction. There was a twinkle in his eyes.
''Huh? What are you doing in the kitchen?" Ella stood in front of Adrian. Even though there was distance between them, the ambience seemed rather peaceful from a distance.
The woman was dressed in a long flared dress that had a gradient shade, the top black slowly fading into a soft pink. Her long hair was braided messily and pushed in front of her shoulder. Delicate accessories and light makeup adorned her.
''You... got a mistress?" Ronan turned to look at Adrian.
Ella also turned to Adrian, "You have a mistress? Since when?" He never had one before.
Seeing the look of 'Men are all dogs' on her face, Adrian frowned and shot Ronan a cold look.
Ronan couldn't take the clue. He traced Ella from head to toe, "Ah, I grew up with you but only today am I realizing that you indeed have a type, Ace..." he mumbled.
But his mumble was completely audible in the pin drop silence.
It suddenly dawned on Ella that this man was referring to her as Adrian's mistress.
Her face turned black like the bottom of a pan.
This man... Her equation with Ronan was never really a pleasant one.
Ronan Knight was one of the top doctors in the country and he had a team of doctors working under him.
This team was undoubtedly very formidable in the medical field but they only worked for the King Family. Getting in touch with Ronan Knight and his team of expert doctors was an impossible feat for even many powerful people.
And this man, Ronan Knight, was a childhood friend of Adrian.
Initially, when they had encountered each other in their past life, he had treated her well but then he started hating gradually.
If not for Adrian's fixation on her, she would probably have died under this black-bellied doctor's clutches before all her tragedy happened.
Seeing her standing there in a daze, Adrian's eyes turned darker, "There is no mistress."
Ella looked up at him.
Mistaking her silence for suspicion, Adrian continued, "I only have you."
"You..." Now it was Ronan's turn to be shocked.
Joining the dots from his friend's responses, Ronan could not believe his own conclusion, "Nonsense! This is the same person?!" He turned to Ella in disbelief.
Ella's lips twitched. She approached Adrian instead, "What were you making? Do you need help?"
"No way! This cannot be her right. The last time I saw, she looked uglier than a ghost, reeking with malicious intent and.... Ahhh!"
A heavy pan had landed on Ronan's foot abruptly, making the man wince.
"Ah, my hand slipped!"
Ronan glared at her, "It's still you, you evil spirit. Even though you have shed your skin by getting some procedures done, you are still just as evil and ugly..."
"Are you really a doctor or a scam? Which part of me looks like it was ever under the knife?" Ella felt indignant at this point. She had initially wanted to keep quiet so that she would make less blunders but who knew who sent this guy to provoke her? "And what do you mean ugly? The last time you saw me, I had an acne breakout on my face due to stress and other factors!"
Ronan scoffed, "Stress? You?! It's already a blessing if you don't stress others to death with your existence alone! Am I wrong, Ace?" He righteously turned Adrian.
