Pampered Like A Princess

Edward was bathed in the sunshine of spring. He tried to suppress it while thinking. His hand, which was holding a cigarette, was sweating. He did not notice the peach blossom petals falling on him.

Edward returned to the car, started it three times, and put it out three times. He didn’t drive away for a long time. The cigarette butts beside the car increased one by one, and time was passing.

Soon, the students of several schools who had finished the competition left with their own musical instruments. Edward watched them closely, looking for Nelissa among them.

He told himself in his heart, “Just take a look. If you take another look at her, I’ll drive away.”

He waited for a while, but he didn’t see Nelissa coming out.

Edward was not a patient man. He had never been so obsessed with waiting for a woman. He knew that he should drive away directly at this time. But his thoughts had been stirred up, and he had no other choice.

She couldn’t help getting out of the car and went inside to see what was going on. She couldn’t feel at ease if she couldn’t see Nelissa coming out.

There were no more judges or audiences in the large play hall. The lights were turned off, the curtains and windows were opened, and the bright sunshine shone in. Edward clearly saw Nelissa playing the piano on the stage. She whispered to Han Penelope under the stage, “Will we be discovered if we stay here secretly?”

“If you find us, you can climb the window and run. Anyway, it’s the first floor. Didn’t you say that you like to play the zither here? I’ll accompany you. Don’t be afraid!” Han Penelope had been bold since she was a child and liked to cover the weak.

“Okay!” Nelissa played the piano happily. The feeling of playing the piano in the music hall was completely different from that in the practice room. The spacious and luxurious performance was like a piano performance of her own.

Edward did not enter. He stared greedily at Nelissa from outside the half-open door. He looked at her again and again. The music entered his ears and affected his heart.

Someone came over. It should be the management staff who came to lock the door. Edward reached out to stop the person, showing a quiet and sharp look.

Han Penelope heard the sound of footsteps and called out to Nelissa on the stage, “Oh my, Nelissa, it seems that someone is coming. Let’s go.”

She picked up her cello and climbed out of the window with difficulty. Nelissa jumped off the stage and followed her closely. Her hands were on the windowsill. The wind blew her long hair and the peach blossoms on a tree. The petals fell into the window, swaying brightly.

Nelissa gathered her long hair and couldn’t help looking back at the door of the studio. She was stunned for a moment. There was someone at the door, revealing a corner of a black suit. The finger under her wrist seemed to be wearing a ring, but the person quickly hid it.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Nelissa, hurry up and leave. Don’t be in a daze.” Han Penelope shouted outside the window, interrupting Nelissa’s attention.

“Oh… I’m here.” Nelissa blinked her eyes and came back to her senses. She climbed out of the window in confusion. It was not that she was wrong, but there was really someone there.

But he didn’t know who it was.

“I’ll contact my uncle next time and ask him to book the whole studio. I’ll play enough for you!” Han Penelope’s voice was loud and loud.

“Young Mr. Hales, this…” The management staff knew who this man was, but it was very strange that such a big shot was here.

“My niece.” Edward withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly.

“I see.” In fact, the management staff didn’t know which of the two girls was Edward’s niece.

The one with long hair, or the one with short hair?

Edward indulged them, and it was not easy for the management staff to investigate. It was just a small matter.

At seven o’clock in the evening.

Edward left the group and got on the car to receive a call from Sophie. He picked up the phone with his headset and drove to the Bailey family’s villa. The traffic was smooth on the road and there was no traffic jam. He drove slowly and went to the Bailey family’s house on time at 8 o’clock.

He couldn’t get through to Sean’s phone. He might still be sleeping at this time, so he turned off his phone directly.

The two brothers were the same. They had a bad temper when they got up, and the jet lag was inevitable. Many times, either Sean woke up Edward or Edward woke him up. Over time, the two simply turned off their phones at night.

After getting out of the car, Edward and Ryan entered the Bailey family home. They sat down and talked.

Edward presented a pair of jade Ruyi Sceptre. Ryan loved to collect jade, while Donald liked to drink tea. Like Mikaelson, the more immortal tea was, the more he liked it. He didn’t care about the price.

“Dad, it’s time to eat.” Sophie was very beautiful tonight, elegant and noble.

She held Edward’s arm intimately, and the woman’s chest leaned against his strong and restrained muscles. She said with a lovely face, “I asked the kitchen to cook a lot of your favorite dishes. You should eat more later.”

Edward smiled and said nothing. He let go of her hand and stood up to wash his hands. He was very polite.

Ryan took note of the details. In the end, Edward still preferred his youngest daughter Anna. They treated each other with respect but did not leave. There was no doubt that if Anna came back, Edward would definitely let go of his previous resentment and stay with him. He did not love Sophie.

The four of them sat down at the table, and the servants served the dishes one after another.

Bambi warmly treated Edward and motioned for the servants to put a plate of fish in front of him. “Edward, this fish was cooked by Sophie herself. It’s her first time cooking in her life. You should try more.”

Edward dealt with the past, but in fact, she was very indifferent to Sophie. She deliberately imitated what Anna had done for him.

The reason why Anna was Anna was like this was because Edward and Sean had watched her grow up. The three of them had been childhood sweethearts for a long time. Later, Sophie followed her mother to live in the Bailey family. In fact, Edward was not close to the mother and daughter.

After taking a bite of the fish, Edward felt that it tasted bad. The chef of the Bailey family was not as good as Nelissa.

Ryan asked him, “I heard that you went to see Anna a few days ago?”

Edward nodded. “Yes.”

“Have you found it?” Sophie asked nervously. She really wanted to know if Edward had found Anna. She was always worried that he would hide Anna and then secretly do something to him.

“No.” Edward had been to Ocean City, but he found nothing. He only knew that Anna had been to Vangelos at first, and then lived in an uncertain place.

Sean was about to go crazy. She couldn’t imagine what kind of life Anna, who had been spoiled by the whole family since he was a child, was living.

“Edward, when are you going to decide on your marriage with Sophie? Anna is gone, and there is only one daughter left in our Bailey family. You are familiar with our family. Whether it is Anna or Sophie, I and Bo can rest assured to entrust you with it,” the Bambi said with a smile.

She didn’t know much about Edward, but she knew that he needed the Bailey family’s joint marriage. She also needed her daughter to have a decent husband to rely on.

“I want to wait for this to come back first,” Edward put down the bowl and chopsticks and said. She had no appetite.

Bambi put the food back into her bowl. Sean was not her son, but was born by Ryan and his ex-wife.

They had been divorced for a long time, and their ex-wife was currently living in the countryside.

A year ago, Sean and Edward had a quarrel again because of Anna. They fell out. Sean went abroad to live with his ex-wife and mother. He had not returned yet, and he was really capricious. He insisted on finding his sister Anna.

However, Ryan and his ex-wife spoiled this only son and knew that Sean loved his sister. After Anna disappeared, Sean was greatly stimulated.

After dinner, the maid removed the leftovers and changed into fresh fruit plates.

Edward didn’t eat much. He didn’t sleep well and was busy with work in the morning. He and Ryan chatted for an hour before the genius said goodbye. Then, Sophie stood up and saw him off.

The long garden was broken, and the driver went to the garage to drive out a luxury car. Sophie leaned against his tall body, looking at his handsome side profile and sexy thin lips with her eyes full of love. She was very charming and fascinated by his male hormones. As long as she thought that she could occupy this man after getting married, she would be very excited.

Her jade-like hands touched Edward’s big hands secretly, full of hints. She wanted to hold his warm palm tightly.

Suddenly, Sophie frowned. “Edward, where’s your ring?”

“At home.” Edward was expressionless. He clenched his fist and did not touch her hand.

Soon, the driver drove the car out. Edward loosened his arm, which was held by Sophie, and took the car key.

Sophie’s eyes flickered. She put one arm around Edward’s sturdy waist, and her beautiful face was close to his side. She raised her mobile phone and quickly took a photo.

Sophie often took photos of her mobile phone. The angle was very good, and the photos were very ambiguous.

Edward frowned and looked at her. “What are you doing?”

Sophie put away her phone and circled around Edward’s pure black suit with her slender fingers. “You haven’t taken photos with me. I want to take a picture with you and put it on my phone screen.”

Edward glanced at Sophie very slowly, nodded, and left without saying anything.

Sophie lowered her head and played with her phone as she returned to the villa. She sent the photo of her and Edward to her own WeChat Moments and asked the sisters in the WeChat group to give her a good time to show off, mocking her for her!

She wanted to let Yvonne know that Edward had a dinner party with her parents at her house tonight. The marriage between her and Edward was bound to belong to the public, and the elders of the two families agreed! Yvonne was just a good-for-nothing who didn’t care about anything after Edward vented her anger. It was not even a love affair!

In the villa.

Sophie drank the traditional Chinese medicine in the kitchen. Seeing her mother coming down from upstairs, she asked her, “Mom, where is Dad?”

“In the study, there are still many things to do in the company. Your school has recruited two more middle school students this year, and they’ve transferred from school. The parents spent money on me and begged me to smooth over the relationship. There are records of smoking and gangs. You can do as you like.” Sophie’s mother sat down beside her, picked up the delicate candied fruit box, and picked up a piece of candied fruit for her daughter and the bitter taste of traditional Chinese medicine.

Sophie’s mother asked the servants in the living room to take a rest and said to her daughter, “Why didn’t you go home with Edward when you sent him out?”

Sophie sneered. “Mom, if you want to win a man’s heart, you can’t just indulge in his appetite. He won’t have a sense of freshness if he eats too much. Instead, he will be interested in other women. In the past, with Anna around, I tried my best to seduce him. But now, it’s different. Anna is gone, and he will marry me. When he finds out that I am still a virgin on the wedding night, he will naturally be different.”
