Pampered Like A Princess

Nelissa understood what Julian meant. Today was the day the grandpa of the Hales family was discharged from the hospital. No matter how unwilling she was to be separated from Edward, she had to focus on the overall situation. She could not stubbornly pester Edward to make things difficult for him. Even if he was willing to stay with her, she could not feel at ease in her heart.

After all, she was an adult and could tell the seriousness of the matter. She had to give in. Now was not a good time to explain.

“Go ahead.” Nelissa pretended to be relaxed and slowly let go of Edward’s hand, letting him go. The candy in her mouth was sweet, but her heart was a little sour.

She held back her tears. In fact, she was still very scared.

Edward frowned and touched Nelissa’s pale face. He apologized to her and said, “I asked Andrew to pick you up, okay?”

“I will send her back.” Zayden suddenly spoke in silence. He looked straight at Edward, and Nelissa was caught between them in a dilemma. Zayden said, “I have known Nelissa for many years. I can send her back. Mr. Hales, don’t worry.”

Edward didn’t give in. On the contrary, Julian replied, “Sorry to trouble you. We must send Miss Quest back safely. We will go to see her tonight.”

Julian thought that Zayden was, after all, Norah’s nephew and a relative of the Hales family, so there was no need for him to make friends with them for the time being. Moreover, his daughter, Wu Ting, appreciated Zayden very much. She often mentioned it in front of him as a face. Besides, he needed to consider the relationship between Zayden and Nelissa.

“Alright, I will.” Zayden said as he looked at Edward.

Nelissa didn’t refuse. She knew that Zayden must have something to ask her. Sooner or later, he would know her relationship with Edward. It would be best if they could end it together. She didn’t know how to face him anymore.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

She had once loved and hated him, but now she didn’t love him and didn’t hate him anymore. It was all over. When all the past had become the past, she only hoped that she wouldn’t recall it.

In the past, she did not know if she was happier or more painful. When she thought she was the happiest person, she collapsed overnight. That kind of unforgettable collapse made her live in pain and suffer every day. So she did not dare to look back at the past. She and Zayden’s and her mother’s, as happy as they used to be, now everything was different.

He sighed.

Five years ago, how could she have thought that she would fall in love with a man named Edward instead of Zayden?

Watching Edward leave with a poker face, Nelissa was reluctant to leave. She knew that he must be in a bad mood now. She didn’t know if it was because of her personal grudge with Sean, or the matter between her and Zayden…

There were many things in her heart that she wanted to explain to him. She was very melancholy.

In the elevator.

Julian’s assistant handed the hot suit jacket to Edward and Sean, as well as a black tie of the same color.

Julian asked them to sort out themselves and then went to see Mikaelson. At this time, their appearances were really not strict. Their white shirts were wrinkled and their ties were missing. It was easy to see the clues.

Edward pulled down his rolled-up sleeves, buttoned the two buttons on his cuffs with his slender fingers, and took over a black tie. He slightly raised his head and tied it under his collar, revealing his sexy Adam’s apple. Then he put on a black suit jacket, with a button in the middle and a tie in it. The cuffs of the white shirt were an inch longer than the sleeves of the coat, revealing the strong wrists of the man and the diamond watch. He looked very mature and handsome.

Edward’s hands were inserted into his black suit trousers, and he had been frowning.

Sean was silent.

Julian ordered his assistant. He turned to look at them and said, “Can your expressions be more harmonious? Taking grandpa out of the hospital is like collecting money from the underworld.”

With a ding, the elevator arrived and slowly opened the door.

Edward went out first and went to the ward guarded by bodyguards. He pushed the door open and went in. Donald and Norah were already there, as well as Julian’s wife. Han Penelope was massaging Mikaelson’s back to please him.

“Uncle!” Han Penelope’s eyes lit up when she saw that Edward had finally arrived. A man of the same age as her followed behind her. She exclaimed, “Brother Yan!”

“Yeah.” Sean looked at Han Penelope and looked her up and down. Then he raised his eyebrows and said, “The little girl has grown up.”

Having been abroad for a year, Sean had not seen Han Penelope for a year. He still remembered that this little girl was a brother-in-law, who admired and respected Edward very much.

Han Penelope was a boy, so she wouldn’t be reserved. “I’m one meter and seventy-two now. I’m five centimeters taller than you before you left. Of course I’ve grown up.”

Sean nodded and said with a smile, “Good. Keep growing. See if you can be as tall as me.”

Sean was one meter and eighty-one, very standard and handsome.

“I don’t want it.” Han Penelope curled her lips. She had never liked her height. The person she loved liked liked petite women. The older she grew, the more she couldn’t even rely on others. She was not feminine.

Edward was talking to Mikaelson. His sister-in-law handed him a cup of freshly brewed tea and also a cup of tea to Sean. She ignored Norah from beginning to end, and no one talked to her. Donald was a typical man who valued boys and girls, so he would not pay attention to her.

Norah was very redundant here, so she simply lowered her head and played with her mobile phone.

A cup of overflowing tea accidentally spilled on Norah’s hand, which made her scream. She looked up and saw who did it. It turned out to be Julian’s wife, Chen Xiao.

Norah said angrily, “Do you want to burn me to death?”

Chen Xiao retorted indifferently, “Why did the tea I made for grandpa burn you? What’s the big deal?”

Chen Xiao had always disliked Norah. Who didn’t know that Norah was a vixen? Back then, the twins in her belly even slandered her husband for deliberately framing her. Norah knew best how the child lost her baby!

Norah was furious when she saw the arrogance in Chen Xiao’s eyes. But the tea was served to Mikaelson. In the Hales family, even Donald didn’t dare to disobey Mikaelson. Norah didn’t dare to make a fuss. She knew that Chen Xiao was just digging a hole for her, but she wouldn’t jump!

“Mikaelson is old. How long can he live?” Norah was waiting for him to die!

Chen Xiao passed the hot tea to Old Mr. Hales. There were also some well-made, traditional-style snacks made by the auntie. They were especially fragrant. Old Mr. Hales used to like this kind of enjoyment at home, and the kitchen had to prepare exquisite snacks in the morning and afternoon.

Mikaelson looked much better, and the doctor approved that he was in a good mood after being discharged from the hospital. He asked Sean, who he hadn’t seen for a long time, “Shiyan, when did you come back?”

Sean replied, “Recently.”

Mikaelson nodded and looked at him. “What’s wrong with your face?”

Sean smiled and said, “An accident occurred.”

At noon, Edward had a fight with him. His face was bruised and he could not hide it for a while. As for whether the old man believed it or not, it was another matter.

Edward acted as if it had nothing to do with him. He lowered his head and looked at the tea in the jade-white cup. His eyes became deeper and deeper, and he couldn’t help thinking about Nelissa. He thought of how she wanted to say something but stopped when he left. His face was full of attachment. Did she really want to keep him here? He knew that she had a lot to say to him, and he also wanted to hear her explanation. He didn’t believe that she was a cunning woman.

Nelissa was very innocent.

In his mind, Nelissa always needed someone to protect her.

Edward didn’t know if this was an unreasonable prejudice, but he believed in his own judgment. He had seen all kinds of women, and he could see through them at a glance. Nelissa wasn’t that kind of woman. She didn’t want money or benefits from him.

Edward held the teacup tightly and kept thinking about Nelissa. She wondered if she was still in pain and if she was feeling unwell. Would she still be afraid? Would she secretly cry again after he left? She and Zayden wanted to say something to Zayden together…

“Isn’t the tea hot?” Mikaelson reminded him and found that Edward had been absent-minded.

She didn’t know where her heart had gone.

“I’m fine.” Edward didn’t feel hot.

Mikaelson looked at his grandson, and then looked at Sean. He naturally knew his grandson’s temper. This fist must have been made by his grandson. He stood up and said, “You two are not young anymore. You have played together since you were young. Don’t make any more trouble. If there is anything, sit down and talk about it. It will always be solved.”

“In that case, Little An’s affairs are not as good as yours. Back then, he told me in person that he wanted Little An to be his wife, but I didn’t know that she wouldn’t be able to see him. All of us felt bad about this. Now, we just want to find this little girl as soon as possible and let her suffer less outside.”

Mikaelson sighed as he spoke. He truly felt sorry for Anna.

Back then, Edward had proposed to him to get engaged to Anna, which really pleased him. He thought to himself that his grandson had finally enlightened his Apertures and was going to ask for a wife. However, things had gone wrong. After Anna disappeared, Edward and Sophie’s relationship had been delayed for several years, and there was no follow-up.

However, he was not in a hurry. His family was in a hurry!

Edward and Sean were both silent. The topic of Anna was always sensitive, not to mention that Sean had found Nelissa and it was even more difficult to deal with.

Mikaelson thought of Edward’s marriage and cared more about Anna. He asked Sophie, “By the way, did you find Anna’s whereabouts when you came back this time? Have you checked the person who took Anna away that year?”

Before Sean could say anything, Edward replied firmly, “There’s no news for the time being.”

Mikaelson tilted his head to look at him. How did he know?

Edward glanced at Sean and said blandly, “I’ve asked him just now.”

Mikaelson nodded. He believed it. It was because he couldn’t find Anna that the two of them started fighting again. That was why Sean’s face was red.

Mikaelson looked grave. It seemed that Edward still couldn’t forget Anna.

After gathering for a while, the assistant took the medicine for Mikaelson and completed the discharge procedure. Then they left and took the elevator downstairs…
