Chapter 879 Incredible Identity
The fitting rooms of international brands were very large, covering more than ten square meters.
Her face was expressionless, and in front of her stood a man.
The man’s face was covered with a silver mask that made it hard to see his features, but he was thin
and his voice was low and cold.
“We’ve given you plenty of chances, and you’ve had plenty of chances to do it, so why didn’t you do it?”
Ella looked at him coldly.
There was no longer in her face the awkward and rustic smile that she had outside.
There was nothing but cold indifference.
She looked at the man and said coldly, “How do I know that when I finish my work for you, you will
spare my family?”
The man sneered and slowly advanced.
When he had reached her, he suddenly struck her under the chin and said in a ghostly voice, “What do
you think is the use of keeping your family? To let them help us farm? Well... Karida, you should know
that once we get Queeny, you’ll be of no use to us. Well, your family, of course, is useless, so why
should we hold them anyway?”
Ella, the girl he called Karida, was unperturbed by his words.
She continued in a hushed voice, “If you want me to help you, you must leave my family alone. At least
let me know they’re safe, or I’ll never help you even if I die!”
She said, her eyes sharp.
The man looked at her and narrowed his eyes.
“So you’re not listening to me?”
Ella didn’t say anything.
The man suddenly laughed grimly.
It was like the tongue of a viper, and it sent shivers down one’s spine.
He leaned in close to her and whispered, “That phone call you got outside wasn’t from your family. It
was from Stephan Zaccardi. Right?”
Ella was shocked.
She looked at him in surprise.
The man continued, “Stephan Zaccardi’s illegitimate daughter is now eighteen years old. As a
Zaccardi, you grew up in an orphanage. You finally grew up safe and secure, thinking you could
recognize your father, but not only did he disown you, he sent you to Felix to lurk here as a little servile
maid. Don’t you have a little hate in your heart?” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Ella was shocked to the extreme.
She stared at the man for a long time before she said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”
“Oh, you don’t admit it, that’s okay. Your old lady at the orphanage is dying anyway, so if you don’t help
us, I might as well kill her first. We have to send someone to take care of her, and listen to her curses
every day, which was really annoying.”
When he said this, Ella stood up immediately.
“Don’t hurt her!”
However, her shoulder was soon pressed down by the man.
The man pressed her hard to get her back into the chair.
“"I won’t kill her if you listen to me,” he whispered.
Ella’s eyes were red.
The man took a package of pills from his shirt.
“How many times have you used the oil I gave you?”
Ella glared at him coldly. She had resisted answering. But she remembered the indignity of her
grandma at the orphanage and answered with red eyes, “Four times.”
“That’s enough. Put this in the water she drinks today. I’ll be watching you in the dark, and when you’re
done, I’ll give you the signal, and follow my signal. Do you understand?”
Ella clenched her chin and asked, “Where’s my grandma?”
The man chuckled. “Don’t worry, she’s fine. In exchange for Queeny's life, I will deliver her to you in
one piece.”
Just then there was a soft knock on the door.
“How are you, Ella? Are you ready?”
Startled, they both turned to look at the door.
The man took a look and smiled. “Well, I won’t say any more to you. Mark my words and I’ll go.”
With that, he went out the other exit like a ghost.
Meanwhile, Ella still sat there and pressed her lips together. After several seconds, she tried to control
her anger and excitement and answered in a steady voice, “I’ll be ready soon.”
Then she got up and hastily put on the dress.
Outside, Queeny heard her voice and was slightly relieved.
She waited outside for a while with Dean, but Ella didn’t come out.
She looked at her watch and saw that it had been more than ten minutes. The design of the dress was
not complicated, and it should not have taken that long.
She was worried. That was why she was asking. She was relieved that there seemed to be nothing
wrong.
After waiting outside for a while, Ella finally came out.
Everyone was so impressed by her.
The girl in front of them was tall and slim. A knee-length dress in mint color, with a design of leaves and
some tiny white pearls on it, just like rain and dew falling on it. It went with her delicate, fresh little face,
like some spirit who had come out of the forest and fallen into the earth.
Dean stared blankly.
Ella didn’t expect Dean to be here. She was stunned for a moment, and then her whole face turned
red.
She looked nervously at Dean, then at Queeny, and asked, “Miss Horton, is it nice?”
Queeny smiled and nodded. “Yes, very nice.”
Then she turned and poked Dean with her arm. “What do you think?” she asked.
Dean came to his senses.
His handsome face flushed suddenly. He didn’t know where to put his eyes, nodding in a hurry, “Very,
very pretty.”
Queeny couldn’t help laughing.
Ella’s face turned red, too.
Queeny sighed as she looked at them.
That was as far as I could help you, she thought.
Before, she was unsure about Dean’s feelings for Ella. Now it seemed that he also liked Ella, but both
of them were reserved and did not say it.
By this time, Dean had already understood Queeny's intention of inviting him in.
It wasn’t her dress, it was Ella...
He blushed a little deeper and did not dare to look at her. As if she, fresh and clean and beautiful, once
met his eyes, would immediately become dirty.
He muttered, “Miss Horton, I’ve seen the dress. I’m gonna go out now.”
