Pampered Like A Princess

Chen Li didn’t know why Nelissa was in the hospital, but she saw that Nelissa’s forehead was wrapped with a thin gauze. It should be because she was injured in the hospital, not because of her. She was slightly relieved, and couldn’t help secretly comparing Nelissa with her daughter, Sophie.

They were both women, so Chen Li didn’t think that Nelissa was more beautiful than her daughter, Sophie. But it was a pity that she was getting older and her marriage had been delayed by Edward, which made her look like a leftover daughter.

In modern society, a leftover woman was not a good spokesperson for a woman. Chen Li couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her warm and tender little face. She felt very unfair to women who were younger and more energetic than her. Nelissa only relied on her pure face to seduce Edward. She heard from her daughter, Sophie, that Nelissa was pregnant at a young age and had an unmarried child. She didn’t even know who the illegitimate child’s biological father was. She was also a shameless little vixen.

Chen Li’s eyes fell from Nelissa’s ample chest to her flat belly. Chen Li did not think that Nelissa could marry into the Hales family with her terrible background, but Nelissa had the ability of a normal woman, and she was also young enough! Her daughter, Sophie, had already suffered a loss in terms of age, and she was still a coward!

Chen Li was afraid that Nelissa would play tricks on Edward. Even if she couldn’t get into the front door of the Hales family, her illegitimate child’s identity was enough for her to be noble with her son. Maybe after a few years, she could kick her legal wife away and take the position of the mistress. Moreover, Edward was very obsessed with her now, so she couldn’t take a fancy to her woman.

No one knew what drug Nelissa had drugged Edward.

However, the tender girl would naturally be loved by the man for a while. After this freshness, the man would find new prey. This was the common bad nature of all men. At present, the most important thing for Chen Li was to maintain her identity as Sophie and keep her status as a child.

When Chen Li was very young, she met all kinds of people in love. She thought that she knew men’s thoughts very well. Although Edward was not an ordinary man, he couldn’t really play with a little girl like Nelissa. That was madness! Edward couldn’t go crazy for a woman!

Chen Li paid attention to it in her heart and planned to ask the acquaintances in the hospital about the reason why Nelissa was hospitalized.

When she was about to leave, she saw Nelissa suddenly stand up. She turned around with a smile and said, “Penelope.”

Hearing this, Chen Li was so scared that she immediately stopped hiding and peeked at him. “Han Penelope is a famous socialite in Haleston City. If she sees me in the hospital, the news will soon spread.”

Chen Li didn’t dare to open her mouth.

Nelissa took two quick steps forward. When she saw Han Penelope, she was very happy. After all, she was a little lonely and bored in the hospital, and no one talked to her. Jolene was busy with the company’s work, so he couldn’t find time to accompany her.

When Nelissa arrived in front of Han Penelope, she saw that there were signs of tears in her red and swollen eyes.

The smile on Nelissa’s face slowly faded. She paused for a few seconds before asking softly, “You… what’s wrong?”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Han Penelope looked at Nelissa with tears in her eyes and remained silent.

Nelissa was inexplicably flustered by her gaze. She clenched her slender and white fingers and called her again in confusion, “Penelope?”

“I met Zayden last night,” Penelope said in a hoarse and sad voice. “He asked me to drink with him. I watched him drink one glass after another. He’s not drunk, and I’m not.”

Penelope looked at Nelissa with tears in her eyes. Her expression was very painful. She was tired. “Actually, I really want to get drunk. It’s best if I get completely drunk and can’t hear every word he says.”

Nelissa suddenly felt very uncomfortable. She wanted Han Penelope to stop talking and stop talking. She was afraid… that she could expose some secrets at once, but she couldn’t.

Penelope continued to talk to herself. She didn’t want to hide anymore. “But every word he said is like a basin of cold water pouring on my heart. I feel painful and uncomfortable. I can’t get drunk at all. I can only accept this kind of torture. Nelissa, I like Zayden. I secretly liked him for a long time.”

Penelope still remembered clearly that when she first met Zayden, she was a hero who saved the beauty. However, when her stubborn self-esteem was at its lowest, Zayden appeared. Without saying a word, he took off his suit jacket and put it on her, covering her embarrassment. His warm body temperature and masculine scent were on her clothes.

Unfortunately, the beauty he wanted to save was not her, but her best friend, Nelissa.

When she was young, she didn’t know how to restrain her emotions. She had secretly hidden her heart. In the end, she became more and more out of control. By the time she found out that there was no way she and Zayden could have ended up together, it was already too late for her to retract her heart.

She could only be a bystander sadly, secretly fall in love with him and envy his love for Nelissa.

In fact, she had thought about it selfishly. As long as the relationship between Zayden and Nelissa was over, she could pursue Zayden. Now, she finally waited for this day, but it was beautiful and terrible.

Penelope shed tears and cried, “Nelissa, do you know that what he said to me last night was all about you? I should be happy for what he said to me for the first time, but… I can’t be happy because he is in pain. He lost you like a person with nothing. I really want to tell him that I like him and I’ve been waiting for him to pay attention to me, but I can’t say it and can’t express my feelings. I can’t see me at all in Zayden’s eyes. I know that even if I confess my love, he won’t accept me.”

“He likes you, and he only likes you.”

The more she spoke, the more she felt sad. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand and could not say a word. She did not know what to say. In this relationship, they were all involved. They had experienced, loved, and suffered. When all the secrets could no longer be hidden, there were many problems to face.

“Edward and I truly love each other.” Nelissa was honest and sincere. It was difficult for her to figure out the relationship between them.

“I know, I know…” Penelope slowly squatted down, and her fingers were deeply inserted into her hair. She cried in confusion and pain. “But I don’t know what to do. Even though I know that Zayden doesn’t like me, I still like him so much. I like him so much that I can’t bear to see him sad. But only you can give him his happiness. I can’t stop you.”

“Last night, I could only watch him drink alone. His eyes were slightly red and his chin was much thinner, but I didn’t even dare to say a word of concern for him. I was afraid that he wouldn’t ask me out to talk to him again after we passed the realm of friends…”

Penelope looked up at Nelissa and said, “Nelissa, am I ridiculous? I like him like a fool, but he has no feelings for me. I just can’t keep my heart and even look down on me, but this is my love.”
