Pampered Like A Princess

Edward frowned and was very unhappy. He felt very uncomfortable when he thought of Nelissa and other men going out for dinner. He raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, feeling a pain in his throat.

Nelissa asked with concern, “Have you eaten yet?”

Edward didn’t say anything and continued, “I’m going to a dinner party, and I’ll have some later. It’s probably late at night, so I’ll leave my chance with Andrew for the time being. If I don’t go back to you, I’ll be busy and can’t leave. If you have something urgent to deal with, tell Andrew and he’ll come in and tell me, understand?”

Nelissa answered softly, “Yes.” She was not sure if it was appropriate, so she asked him softly, “What’s wrong with your voice?”

Edward said, “I caught a cold.”

Nelissa could tell that his voice was low and hoarse than usual. He might have been too busy these days and had not had a good rest. In addition, in this season, it was sometimes sunny and sometimes rainy, so it was easy for him to catch a cold.

She saw that the boss’s car had driven into the parking lot and stopped in his parking lot. She quickly thanked him and opened the door to get out. She nervously said to Edward, “Don’t be too tired. Don’t come here after you finish your work today. You don’t have to go to the hospital. Have a good rest first.”

Edward replied in a low and deep voice, “Yes. I don’t have any schedule tomorrow. I’ll stay in the hospital to accompany your mother’s operation.”

Nelissa’s heart was hot and she had an impulse to cry. She couldn’t help touching the ring on her ring finger and asked him in a soft voice, “Okay. Are you leaving now?”

“Okay.” Edward glanced at his watch and chatted for another 10 minutes. He opened the cigarette box, took out a cigarette and bit it between his thin lips, looking for a lighter.

Nelissa said, “Don’t smoke too much. Your throat will hurt. Have you taken any medicine?”

Edward’s hand, which was holding the lighter, paused slightly. He still listened to his wife’s words and took out the cigarette in his mouth. He threw it aside and said, “No. I’ll ask Andrew to buy it. I’ll eat it later.”

Nelissa reminded him gently, “Eat it after dinner. You need warm water.”

Edward’s eyes softened as he curled his thin lips. “Okay.”

They chatted for more than ten minutes before the call ended. Nelissa returned to her work seat and sat down. She held her fair and clean face with both hands, and her eyes gradually blurred. After eating lunch, Jolene saw her lost in thought. He walked over and teased her, “Is it spring?”

Nelissa instantly came to her senses and glared at her. “Keep your voice down.” Fortunately, her colleagues in the office had not returned after dinner.

Jolene smiled and squeezed his throat, saying, “What are you doing? You look like you miss a man.”

Nelissa glanced around and said, “No.” She frowned again and said, “Edward caught a cold.”

Jolene snorted and said with his arms crossed in front of his chest, “I thought it was something! It’s just a cold. Those sitting in the office keep blowing on the air conditioner every day and often catch a cold. What’s there to be surprised about?”

Nelissa lifted her eyelids and rolled her eyes at her. “You don’t understand.”

However, Jolene said in a serious tone, “I understand. It’s nothing more than a married woman’s instinct to be as gentle as water. To put it simply, you’ve changed from a pure girl to a married woman. Luckily, your face is pale, or else you’d be called a yellow-faced old woman.”

Nelissa wanted to throw a pen at her. “Get lost.”

The fight went on in the afternoon.

Edward ate some Chinese food at the dinner and asked for a cup of warm water to take medicine. The woman next to him immediately asked with concern, “Mr. Hales, are you not feeling well?”

After taking the medicine and drinking a cup of warm water, Edward said lightly, “I just caught a cold.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The slim woman said to the bosses of other groups at the dinner table, “Don’t drink too much for Mr. Hales. It’s bad for your health to catch a cold.”

Those bosses began to coax her and Edward as if they knew each other. The woman smiled generously and was not stingy. From time to time, she secretly looked at Edward beside her and touched his arm intentionally or unintentionally.

This woman was called Lin Cheng. Her mother, Lin Xue, had lost her husband in her early years and was engaged in politics. Her background was not small, so she was talking to Ryan now.

Lin Chengcheng was interested in Edward. Previously, he was unable to get close to him because he was already engaged to his fiancee. Now he heard that he had broken up with Sophie. The engagement was invalid. Although he had a unknown new girlfriend, Lin Chengcheng thought that this was just a cover. The new girlfriend was not worth being afraid of. Now was the best chance for her to get close to Edward.

“Let’s drink some tea. Don’t drink anymore.” Lin Cheng poured a cup of tea for Edward and called the waiter. He ordered some chicken soup for Edward to show his kindness.

A beautiful woman took the initiative to show kindness to a man. She didn’t need money or plead for mercy. She always wanted to get something she wanted from this man.

Lin Cheng wanted to flirt with Edward and be his Mrs. Han.

If it had been in the past, Edward might have had the patience to play with Lin Chengcheng as an adult. He knew very well what kind of expression could seduce this woman, and it was hard to see through his real thoughts. But now he was not in the mood, and he did not forget his marriage identity.

The woman he wanted to seduce the most was Nelissa. Now that Nelissa was his wife, he didn’t want to deal with other women.

Edward touched the tea that Lin Cheng had poured for him and said, “It’s too hot.” Then he didn’t drink it, but drank some wine.

After work, Nelissa rushed to the hospital to see Sonya. She was going to start the art tomorrow. She talked with Mr. Su and Alex for a long time until it was completely dark outside.

Elder Su invited her to dinner, but she refused. Now she just wanted to stay with her mother for a while. After an unknown period of time, it began to rain outside. She realized that it was already past eight o’clock.

She got up and went to the bathroom to wash her cup, thinking about whether she should eat something or not. She heard someone open the door of the ward and come in. She didn’t know who it was. Maybe it was Edward, but he didn’t have to come.

She washed her cup and went out, only to see Zayden.

He stood in front of the hospital bed and looked at Sonya with a complicated expression. After that, he slightly turned his head and looked at Nelissa through the distance, speechless. He was wearing a formal suit, but his coat had been taken off. The buttons on the top of his white shirt were open, and his sleeves were rolled up in an irregular manner, without tie.

Zayden, who usually paid great attention to his image, seemed a little desolate at this moment.

Nelissa paused.

Zayden was silent for a moment, then he asked her, “We’re about to attack tomorrow. Are you really not going to inform me?”

Nelissa held the glass cup in her hand tightly and said to him, “I can handle it myself.”

Zayden shook his head. “That’s not the problem. My master’s wife and I have been friends for several years. To be honest, if it weren’t for my master’s mother’s appreciation of me, I wouldn’t have met you. I have almost no other relatives in this world. You and my master’s wife used to be the closest people to me. I never thought of hurting you or harming your master’s wife.”

“Nelissa, can you stop being wary of me? No matter how bad I am, I can’t hurt you. I haven’t reached the point where I’m devoid of humanity.”

Nelissa sighed and found her own voice. “Don’t say that to yourself. I haven’t defined you as… a bad person.” She took the cup and walked to the bed. She picked up the hot kettle and poured a cup of hot water. When the water was full, she put down the hot kettle and said, “My mind is in a mess now. I just want my mother’s operation to succeed tomorrow. I can’t care about other things.”

Zayden approached Nelissa and saw that she had sprinkled hot water over her. He reached out to grab her wrist and stay away from her for fear that she would get hot.

She said in a low voice, “Let go.” He ignored her and said, “If I corrected all the mistakes I made, would you forgive me?”

“Let go.” Nelissa struggled, but it was in vain.

Zayden held her tightly and continued, “I’ll return all the company, industry, and shares of the Quest family to you. Can I continue to protect you like I used to?”

Nelissa suddenly raised her head and looked into his flickering eyes. She questioned him, “What’s the point of giving it back to me? What’s the point for us now?”

Zayden didn’t say anything. His hand strength increased a little, and he pinched Nelissa.

She took a deep breath, and her body couldn’t help trembling. She said, “Do you think we separated because of a misunderstanding? Even if the misunderstanding is gone, we can’t be together again. I have someone else’s child, and I like another man. I am no longer the Nelissa you used to protect. You can continue to deceive yourself, but I can’t pretend to love you!”

Speaking of the excitement, Nelissa couldn’t help but shed tears. She didn’t know why she was crying. There was a kind of emotion that couldn’t be expressed in her heart was crazily surging, stabbing her heart and tears.

She slowly squatted down, and one of her hands was lifted up by Zayden. She buried her face in her knees and cried wildly. Her fingers slipped into her hair, and she felt very uncomfortable.

She couldn’t take back the feelings she had once given. She couldn’t say that if she didn’t love him now, she wouldn’t feel pain or pain. After all, she had spent nearly Nathan with Zayden. She really thanked him for protecting her and taking care of her. What he had done for her was real.

She couldn’t deny that at this moment, the sadness in her heart was due to Zayden.

In the past, she always couldn’t help but ask herself why she and Zayden walked in opposite directions. Now, she only wanted to ask what happened between her and Zayden…

Nelissa had an answer in her heart. “At the end of the day, we all lost to reality. You lost the temptation of reality, and I lost to the love in my heart. Susan’s misunderstanding is just a fuse. The crack in our relationship is no longer a matter of a day or two. The best you in the past couldn’t meet the requirements of love, and the current you couldn’t.”

” Sooner or later, we will both be injured because of all kinds of problems. In the end, you are tired, and I am tired. Everyone can only break up with scars on their faces. You and I are people who are easy to compromise with reality, and we love each other too much.”
