Pampered Like A Princess

Chapter 177



In this house, Norah was most afraid of Edward. She couldn’t forget how cruel this man was. She had lost the baby in her belly. How old was Edward? She had lived in this house to recuperate, but Edward dared to kick her down the second floor in front of the servants. She fell on the spot with her head broken and elbow broken, but Donald was not there at that time.

She was about to complain about it, but Edward threw the phone to her and asked her to call Donald and tell him. Her heart was in a mess and she didn’t dare to take any action.

Norah would never forget it. At that time, she was lying on the ground with her head bleeding. Edward walked down the stairs step by step with his hands in casual pants as if he was strolling in the courtyard. His expression was as disdainful as an ant, but cold and cruel.

He looked at her and said, “Do you think your life is noble, or my life? Since you said that my brother didn’t have a baby in your belly, I will definitely do as you wish.”

Norah hadn’t been pregnant for so many years. She suspected that it was Edward’s doing. Her body began to have problems. She didn’t dare to tell Donald about it, and she couldn’t find any evidence to prove that it was Edward.

The meal took a long time.

Mikaelson was in a good mood, and everyone accompanied him to cheer him up. It was rare for him to talk and laugh at the usually cold table. Donald had not had a good talk with his two sons for a long time. When he married Norah, he knew that he was wrong, but it was all wrong. He couldn’t ask him to lose face and apologize to his two sons.

However, Julian was ruthless enough to kill his half-brother. Donald was mad at that time.

Donald picked up the goblet and drank. He saw that Edward was the one who spoke the least at the table. He didn’t drink or eat much. He asked, “Edward, why don’t you drink?”

Edward replied faintly, “I have to drive back later.”

In fact, it was just an excuse. Edward usually went out to have fun and drank. After drinking, he would find someone from the designated company to drive the car. He just felt that it was not good to find Nelissa after drinking. He began to care more and more about Nelissa’s feelings. There should not be a woman who liked men to go to find her after getting drunk.

Donald saw that today’s family was in a good mood, so he wanted to persuade his youngest son to stay. “You can live here tonight. Don’t go back. Your grandfather has just been discharged from the hospital. It’s not easy for the family to get together. Why are you still here?”

Edward didn’t give his father any face. “I don’t live here.” He said coldly, “There’s no need to persuade me.”

For a time, the dining table was a little cold, and Donald could not bear to lose face. He held a goblet and kept drinking. Norah knew how to show her ability, so she did not ask the servants to pour wine. Instead, she poured a red wine bottle for Donald and poured more for him thoughtfully.

His son was a woman outside, so he couldn’t be raised well. He couldn’t be as thoughtful as his wife. Norah kept blowing these pillow winds for Donald.

“Don’t drink too much.” Mikaelson said his son, Donald. He would never say anything about Edward in front of others. He was the one who had brought up his grandson, so he knew his son’s character.

After Norah entered the house, Edward stayed in this house. Every time he came back for dinner, no matter how late he stayed, even at midnight, he would drive away at 6 o’clock in the morning. He never stayed overnight. His former room had been empty for a long time.

Edward finished a bowl of rice and left to smoke.

Penelope turned her head and followed him secretly…

In the garden, the moon was bright and there was a cool breeze that cooled down. The location here was high and the air was good. It could reduce the impatience in the lungs.

Edward took out his mobile phone to have a look. Sean had already returned to his home. He just called Uncle Bo in the car to prevent Sean from harassing Nelissa before he went home.

According to the time, Sean should have returned home.

Edward called Sophie, and she received a call from Edward. Her voice was surprised and excited. She smiled and said, “Edward, why do you want to call me? Is it…”

Edward interrupted her. “Are you leaving now?”

Sophie’s excitement was suddenly reduced. “I’m back. I’ve been talking to Dad in the study, and I haven’t come out yet.”

Sophie sat on the sofa in the living room downstairs, waiting for Sean to come out. She had something to ask him. This time, did she come back to find Anna or not?

Sophie hoped that it was the latter.

Anna’s return would be a great threat to her, her status, her man, and even her property.

“They’ve been talking in the study for two whole hours. I don’t know what they’re talking about. There’s a wound on his face. I really don’t know what he did in the past few days. Ying, do you think he found Anna or not?”

Sophie asked about his skills, but Edward didn’t leave her and didn’t even hook up with her. He said directly, “Ask your father to keep an eye on him these days. Don’t let him go out for the time being.”

Sophie grabbed her phone tightly and asked, “Why? What happened to him?”

Edward said in a cold voice, “It’s nothing. I don’t like him.”

“Edward…” The phone was hung up. Sophie looked at her phone in disappointment. She didn’t call back. She could tell that Edward was in a bad mood. She had been shot. If she called back, she wouldn’t get any benefits.

The relationship between her younger brother and Edward had broken down a long time ago, so it was not surprising that Edward did not like him.

Her mother came down from upstairs. She wanted to bring tea to the father and son, but she was not allowed to enter. She could not hear what they were talking about in the study.

Sophie’s mother put her hands around her shoulders and ordered the cook to bring out the brewed traditional Chinese medicine for the First Miss to drink. She sat down and said to Sophie, “It’s good that your brother is back. Didn’t Edward say that he would wait for him to come back to prepare for the marriage with you? Now that he is back, Edward has no reason to refuse. You and he should get married as soon as possible.”

While drinking the strange Chinese medicine, Sophie was very impatient. She had not told her mother that Edward would not marry her!

Edward lit a cigarette and lit it. There were orange-red fireworks between his slender fingers. Everything was dark at night, but a cigarette in his hand was floating with smoke, with a very fatal manly temptation.

Sometimes men were like a bottle of red wine. The older they were, the deeper their meaning was. It was easy to make people fall for them. The mature charm that had been honed over the years was not something a childish boy could compare with. Generally speaking, little girls were most obsessed with this kind of man. Because he was young and immature, it was easy for him to be played in the palm of the hand, but he was easily convinced.

The position of a man like Edward was bad.

People who didn’t know him would think that he was a bad man, and those who knew him would also think that he was a bad man, but this was not the case.

Edward took a drag on his cigarette and let out a puff of smoke. His side profile was as handsome as a dream. His hand that was holding onto the cigarette paused for a moment, then he lowered it to his side and turned to ask, “Do you still have the habit of peeping?”

Penelope was embarrassed. She walked out from a tree, which was half a man’s height. She rubbed her hands and said with a dry smile, “Uncle, who did you call just now?”

Edward raised his eyebrows and looked at his niece calmly. “Who should I report to you on the phone?”

Of course, Han Penelope didn’t dare to say, “No, I’m just curious.” She poked her finger and peeked at Edward. “According to my psychological test, men avoid others at night and make phone calls alone. 80% of them call important people, women, or lovers.”

Edward squinted. “So?”

Han Penelope immediately became dry. “So what? Shouldn’t it be his turn…”

After Edward finished smoking, there was nowhere to throw the cigarette butt. He held it in his hand and said, “If you want to talk to me, just say it. Don’t beat around the bush with me.”

Penelope asked cautiously, “Is it a woman?”

Edward nodded. “It’s a woman.”

Han Penelope’s heart sank. Was it really Nelissa?

Edward told her, “But it’s not my love. You should watch less psychological tests in the future. Without any evidence, it’s purely a lie to a little girl with no love experience like you. As your uncle, I don’t want to see you develop into a fool.”

“No way! You are talking nonsense!” Han Penelope was so angry that her cheeks puffed out. She was the uncle’s pet, but her uncle often said to her viciously, “Then, then…”

Han Penelope wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Edward looked at her and came to a conclusion. “You’re very strange tonight.” He looked at his watch and said, “Ask whatever you want. Who taught you to be so timid? When did you become so timid?”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“I asked you what you would say?” Han Penelope’s eyes widened in disbelief. She did not realize that she had been led astray by Edward.

“That’s right. If you ask me, then just say it. It’s impossible for you to say it if you don’t ask me.” Seeing that his eldest niece, Han Penelope, was silent, Edward took a step forward and was about to leave. “It’s getting late. I’ll go back first. You can slowly think about whether you dare to ask or not. If you don’t dare to ask, just hold it in.”

Han Penelope lowered her head and clutched her fingers. She wanted to ask but did not dare to ask. She was afraid that everything would change if she asked. She did not know if she should expose it or not. She was still wondering if she had thought wrong.

She watched Edward pass by her and leave. Her figure was tall and straight in the shadowy garden. She gritted her teeth and asked, “Are you and Nelissa…”

“Yes.” Edward admitted it decisively. He turned around and saw that his niece, Han Penelope’s face had turned pale, as if she had suffered a great blow. Edward raised his thin lips and said intentionally, “Look at you. How dare you be so timid?”

“You…” Han Penelope wanted to lose her temper, but when she saw Edward’s indifferent but intimidating look, she immediately gave in. She didn’t dare to talk back to her father, and her uncle wouldn’t scold her or forbid her from going to jail. However, she had an aura that wasn’t easy to deal with, so when she was angry, it was quite scary.

Penelope accused him in a muffled voice. “It’s not until now that you know that Nelissa is my classmate. You knew that Nelissa was my good friend since a long time ago. How could you still… be disrespectful to her?”
