The President's Contract Wife
Chapter 47: Devan's Decision

"Do you like it?" devan asked to see Ella. This question has not been answered by Ella. Hope Ella will forgive herself, and know if this locket has not adequately treated the recesses of her wounded heart. Ella looked at Devan and smiled.

"I like it, really like it, sir." Ella answered him while touching her flower pendant.

"Thank God," said Devan, touching Ella's head and grabbing Ella's right hand.

"Ella, I'm sorry for my mistake for making you sad like this. Honestly, I'm sorry, so sorry. I promise, I won't repeat it. You want to forgive me?" Devan sees her seriously, begging Ella to forgive him. But, Ella just kept silent yet could answer him. Ella's feelings have not healed completely.

Devan hugged Ella, he understood, well understood if Ella needed time to make sure her words were sincere or not.

"All right, don't answer it. Now, I'll take you for a walk today." Devan smiles and pulls Ella up and starts walking. Want to comfort Ella to not be sad anymore and think not to see her father again. But, Ella was still silent making Devan turn to look at her. Wonder why this girl is not moving.

"Why silence?" devan asked worriedly seeing Ella shut up and looked down.

"Sir, where are you taking me?" ask Ella to see it.

Devan raised his eyebrows, then touched his chin. Thinking what a suitable place to entertain Ella.

"Where are you going?"

"To my father's place, sir." Ella's reply surprised Devan.

"Ella" said Devan, patting Ella on both arms.

"Don't think about dying, Ella. I don't want you to repeat it. Don't even think about suicide, I can't see you like this." Devan is anxious and frightened, thinking Ella is still willing to end her life.

"Sir, I'm going to my father's grave, not to kill myself. I'd like to visit, sir."

"Eh?" Devan was a little surprised. Now it is her turn to fail to understand Ella's words.

"So, you want to go to the tomb, your father?" ask Devan to make sure.

"Yes, Sir. I have never visited this month, so can you accompany me? I miss, My father," Ella replied as she looked at Devan with her innocent gaze.

"Aren't you going to the mall or somewhere else?" Devan's proposal to see Ella. Ella shook her head not going anywhere but to her father's grave.

"All right, I'll keep you company." Devan smiles. Ella was different from the spoiled nature of Elisha. But, once again Ella did not move when pulled to get out, making Devan turn back to look at him.

"Why silence again?" ask Devan. Ella looked at Devan and smiled a little. "Thank you, sir." Ella's words made Devan this time who was silent, it felt good to have heard those two words just now. Devan stroked Ella's head and nodded. Ella walks with Devan to the car to take him to his father's grave.

Arriving at the cemetery, Ella immediately got out of the car and walked with Devan to the tomb of her father. Ella's footsteps stopped at one of the tombs that was slightly covered in small grasses. Ella crouched down and pulled out the weeds to make her father's grave look clean and tidy.

Devan standing nearby felt amazed, as Ella still cared about doing this. Unlike Elisha who was certainly reluctant to visit this place.

Ella stood up already done cleaning her father's grave. A small smile began to be seen and slowly his two eyes began to shed tears. Devan immediately hugged Ella, giving a shoulder back for her tears. Ella cried no longer hurt, but happy to have been free from the grip of her mother and step-sister. Now Ella's starting to get along with all this.

The car stopped in front of the mall that Elisha had visited with him yesterday. Ella came down with Devan. The moment she woke Ella up in fear. Fear of being pushed, fear of being pushed. Devan raised next to his eyebrows in astonishment.

"Have you never come here?" devan asked, pointing at the mall, and then looking at Ella. Ella nodded then looked at the mall with a look on her face.

"Sir, I've never been invited here."

Devan chuckled at it, then patted Ella's head softly which was so innocent she had never visited the mall. Indeed, Aline never took Ella out for a walk, and only told Ella to stay indoors.

"So, what do you know?" devan asked in curiosity.

"Looks are just the kitchen, sir."

Once again Ella's head was elated by Devan who was holding back a laugh had already heard Ella's reply. Devan immediately pulls Ella in to see the mall. Show this innocent girl about the vast mall will be a variety of good stuff in it.

Ella was stunned by so many people who passed by here and there. Moreover, so many various neatly lined shops that he met today.

"Do you like coming here?" devan asked to see it. Ella immediately nodded.

"This is amazing, sir. This is not the same as in the market that I go to every morning."

Devan laughed at Ella's words. Turns out, his wife is a home-based child who only knows about the kitchen. Devan walked quickly while pulling Ella, wanting to show this innocent girl various valuables in the mall.

"Aaaa, Master!" ella screams suddenly hugging Devan. Surprised to see the stairs he stepped on moving upwards. Devan was anxious and immediately saw him.

"What's wrong?" devan asked still hugged Ella.

"The ladder's moving, sir. The stairs don't look like the ones in my house" Ella replied still screaming.

Devan laughs at Ella so funny and the first time he steps on her. The visitors laugh at Ella who hugs Devan looking scared. Devan began to be embarrassed and immediately tried to release Ella while pointing at the slowly moving stairs beneath her.

"Ella, don't be afraid. It's the escalator stairs."

"Hm, ladder calculator?" asked Ella not yet understood and started again her innocent behavior.

"Oh my God, not a calculator, but an escalator" Devan replied patting him in the face.

"Eoffice?" ella pretended to hear him unclear.

"Ella, are you deliberately deaf?" Devan squinted his eyes starting to get annoyed. Ella looked down and was not clear. Feeling cool was also talking like this to the haughty man beside her. Feeling good has upset him.

"Ehehe, sorry sir." Ella cengengesan played both of her fingers. Devan smiled, feeling it was also fun taking Ella for a walk. Devan holds Ella's hand and goes to a clothing store. Wanting to change Ella's appearance to deserve to stand by her side as his wife. Now Devan's decision is clear, if he will maintain his marriage and try to cancel his engagement to Elisha.

"You're my decision, Ella."
