Pampered Like A Princess

Andrew shook his head. It was hard to say that he had been waiting here for an hour, and Young Mr. Hales told him not to disturb Nelissa. He said, “It won’t be long before I arrive. It’s getting late, so I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll go back first.”

“Okay, then take care.” Nelissa saw Andrew off. She didn’t go back until she saw him enter the elevator.

There were real estate certificates and title deeds in the bag, and the unit was not even 1. There were several houses in different locations, which dazzled Nelissa. Was it for her?

Jolene took a glass of water and took a look at it. Suddenly, his blood pressure rose. “So impressive! I just said that Edward didn’t give you any betrothal gifts, so I sent someone here. What’s the name of this? It’s a low-key luxury. How much would it cost to exchange so many houses for yuan?” Jolene calculated in his heart. The number was already so large that her heart beat faster. “Nelissa, you got a good marriage this time. You got married so well. Even if you get a divorce with such a house in the future, it wouldn’t be difficult for you to keep half of the entertainment industry, let alone keep a little fresh meat.”

“Edward is a man of high moral standard, generous and imposing!”

Jolene was a fan of Edward. She had always firmly believed that a man’s property could only be developed by his wife.

Nelissa didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “He bought these houses a few years ago. At that time, the house price couldn’t be compared to what it is now.”

Jolene said, “It doesn’t matter when he bought it. Now that you have the assets, you’ll have the confidence. Look at these lands, they’re all worth it. Edward giving them to you means that he values your marriage very much. He gives you enough wealth and wealth. You just need to flirt with him. It’s romantic!”

Jolene glanced at Nelissa and suddenly said in disappointment, “Don’t stay here tonight. I’ll drive you to Edward’s place and leave your husband behind on your wedding night. Do you think that’s true?”

Nelissa: “…”

Jolene urged her, “Hurry up.”

Nelissa pointed out, “You drank.”

Jolene smacked his forehead and said, “Yeah, I forgot. I’ll go downstairs and stop the car for you.”

Nelissa said slowly, “I’m in my period.”

Jolene glared at him and sighed, “You’re really not in a hurry. Although Edward is your adulterer, I still have quite a good impression of him. Don’t turn him into your ex-husband.”

Nelissa nodded seriously and promised that she wouldn’t. She asked Jolene, “Are you still thinking about your ex-husband?”

Jolene didn’t say anything. He picked up the hot water she had just poured and drank it bit by bit. He didn’t know if he had heard it or not.

At 8:30 p. m.

Edward drove back to the Hales family’s house. Mikaelson was reading the newspaper with his reading glasses. Han Penelope was watching a Korean drama. When she saw him coming back, she asked the kitchen to prepare dinner. Donald came downstairs and looked at Edward. He wanted to say something but stopped on second thought, so as not to make Mikaelson angry.

Edward washed his hands, took off his suit jacket, put it aside, and sat down to eat.

Norah didn’t have an appetite. The light dishes didn’t suit her appetite. Once the old man came back from the hospital, Edward would be the most partial person in the family.

Penelope picked up some food for Mikaelson and said, “Great-grandfather, you’ve been in the hospital for so long this year. You must have a big party for this year’s birthday party. Why don’t you leave it to me this year? I know a lot of interesting ideas. I’m sure you’ll have a good time that day. Have fun from morning to night.”

Norah was unhappy. The birthday party of the old master had always been held by her, and she had been there for several years. “What do you know, little girl? Do you think you are holding a classmate’s party? The birthday party of grandpa will be held in two hundred tables at a time. This year’s arrangement will be big, so it will be more than two hundred tables. Those who receive the invitation are all honorable. I’m afraid that you can’t handle it well.”

Penelope smiled and said, “I used to be a child, but now I’m a graduate student. I can get a doctor in a few years. It’s just a few hundred tables. How can I not know how to count with my high education? Don’t you think so?”

Norah had a good reputation. She hated to be mentioned about her education background. She was born in a Bailey family and studied in junior high school. However, she had a beautiful appearance and was very popular. When she was young, she was fascinated by many men. She was almost forty years old now, but she looked like a twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old girl, who paid great attention to maintenance.

In Norah’s heart, she despised a woman with high education. No matter how high her education was, she was almost a third-rate student after reading books. She was not as beautiful as Norah. It was enough for a rich man to marry a wife and go home. Which rich man would like a doctor’s degree? A group of idiots.

Norah disdained him in her heart, but she said, “It’s good to have a high education, but you lack experience.”

Penelope was more excited. At this time, Mikaelson said, “Forget it, let her do it. If I don’t let her do it, I won’t have peace in the past few days.”

Penelope quickly picked up some food for Mikaelson. “It’s too kind of you to be like someone else.” Her tone was very good, and it didn’t sound like she was looking for trouble. On the contrary, it made one unable to speak.

Mikaelson tilted his head and asked Norah, “You don’t mind, do you?”

“Of course not.” Norah knew very well that Han Penelope’s surname was Han, and her surname was Zheng. The men from wealthy families were much more cruel and merciless than ordinary men. They did great things. Women could not commit suicide without a son and a daughter. There were many women younger and more beautiful than her, but few of them could become the wife of a mistress and get married.

Norah brushed away the thin layer of skin on the surface of the soup bowl, put the warm hot in front of Donald, and let him drink.

This meal was almost over. Everyone finished their meal quietly and did not speak again. The Hales family had strict family education, so they rarely talked during meals.

Edward went out to smoke after dinner. He had always been very quiet at home. He didn’t want to talk, so there was nothing to talk about. On the contrary, he missed Nelissa. The narrow apartment was clean and tidy. She was busy walking around in front of him, cooking, and tidying up. Then she would sit down and talk to him. After finishing her homework, the two children came out to watch TV. They were full of family warmth, which made him relaxed.

The servant came to Edward and said that Mikaelson asked him to go upstairs for a talk.

Edward put out the cigarette between his fingers and went back to his room. He ordered Han Penelope, “Go make a cup of ginseng tea now. We’ll bring it to grandpa in 15 minutes.” He then ordered, “Bring it to me.”

Han Penelope replied with an “oh” and wanted to know what to do. However, Edward had already gone up the stairs. He was tall and had long legs, so he quickly went up.

Penelope had no choice but to turn around and go to the kitchen to make ginseng tea. She had to do what her uncle told her to do. She didn’t dare to be afraid of death.

On the second floor, in Mikaelson’s bedroom.

Edward stood upright with a handsome face and a noble temperament.

Mikaelson held the dragon head cane and looked at him. “What’s wrong with you and Sophie? She came here at noon today, but it seems that the little girl, Penelope, is hiding something from me. She doesn’t want me to know that she has been here. Tell me why.”

Edward had guessed what was going on, but his niece thought that he could hide it from the old man. He simply said, “I broke up with Sophie, and I proposed it.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

After a moment of silence, Mikaelson asked, “Are you not getting married?”

Edward said decisively, “Yes, but not Sophie.”

“You’re just messing around.” Mikaelson took a few steps with his dragon head cane and sat down on the chair in front of the desk. He looked up at Edward and said, “Why do you suddenly have this idea? When you come back, did you find Anna? Even if you find Anna, you can’t regret it. You have been with the two sisters of the Bailey family for so many years. One of them is missing, the other is in love with you, and you have dragged her for so many years. How can her father not be angry now that you said that you’re married to her? The Bailey family will definitely become enemies with our family. This decision, you’ve done something wrong. You’re not rational or smart, and even made a mistake.”

Edward didn’t take it seriously. “I don’t think it’s a mistake. This is a joint marriage of interests. Sophie loves me because of interests, but it doesn’t mean that I will spend time with her because of interests. This is a deal between both sides, and it’s between you and me. Sophie knows very well that I’m not interested in her, but she’s still willing to wait for me for so many years. Is there no man who has given her an olive branch during this period? Yes, but she doesn’t like it.”

“She takes a fancy to my identity and background, which is her ambition. It’s a good deal for her to sacrifice a few years of her youth for her ambition. But I don’t want to continue the deal with her. The only thing she can talk to me about is that I have no interest in this. She is not attractive to me at all. Why should I sacrifice myself to marry her?”

Edward’s tone and expression were extremely arrogant and cold when he said this. His eyes were dark. He was just like usual when he was talking about business. He analyzed the advantages of this transaction without any emotion. His words were sharp and precise, but he could not be hooked with contempt and disdain. He was superior, but he was not lacking in character.

Edward, as long as he didn’t like it, he could find a hundred or even more bad reasons for you. He was born to be a businessman. His words could make you think about him and even forget your original purpose.

Every word of this man had been thought of ten or eight circles in his mind, and his rich experience made him see things clearly. It was best not to provoke such a person.

Mikaelson frowned and knocked on the ground with his cane. “Do you think that Sophie is not good enough for our family?”

Edward nodded. It was no exaggeration to say that he had never admired Sophie’s beauty. He could not tell what it was because of her face. It was not attractive to him, and he only felt impatient.

Nelissa was still in line with his aesthetic standard. Her skin was fair and noble, and she acted like a spoiled child. Her figure was the white and tender that he liked. Nelissa was very attractive to him.

Mikaelson looked at Edward and asked, “Is the woman you like worthy of our family?”
