Pampered Like A Princess

Chapter 179



Nelissa said, “You can’t give me the love I want, and you can only hide the marriage I want. My request has been low, but you can’t reach it. You can’t reach it now or in the future. I can’t hide my heart and accept you again. I would rather not do all this.”

“I don’t want to hold my own fate in the hands of others anymore. Every night, I will be frightened and wait for you to come back. Do you want me or abandon me?” This kind of feeling was very uncomfortable. Every minute and every second of the day were laughing at her self-esteem.

Zayden immediately retorted, “I never thought I didn’t want you!”

Nelissa nodded very little. Zayden was waiting for her to speak, but she didn’t even give him the chance to say a word. She just remained silent.

After a while.

Nelissa suddenly couldn’t stand the silence. Maybe Zayden never thought about abandoning her, but she was only 18 years old at that time. Her mother had a car accident and was unconscious. The company in her home had changed its owner. She was in an extremely uneasy state. An 18-year-old girl couldn’t think of such a long-term and complicated thing. She couldn’t figure out what Zayden’s intention was for her at that time. So she did something capricious: run away from home.

She didn’t know if she and Zayden would slowly let go of their differences if she hadn’t left. He would have used time to prove his true feelings for her and regain her trust… Perhaps. She really didn’t know.

Nelissa rubbed her forehead and said, “Can’t you stop talking about this? I’m really tired today. I just want to ask you, do you know about Anna?”

“Yes.” Zayden walked to the chair behind the desk and sat down. He pulled out a drawer, took out a cigarette and a lighter, and asked Nelissa if she cared.

Nelissa shook her head.

Zayden lit a cigarette with a lighter and took a drag. The smoke swirled in his eyes. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Nelissa, who was sitting in front of him.

She had a delicate profile and pink lips. She was still that girl. When he first came to the Quest family to take care of her, she was still very young. He was used to smoking for many years. Every time he was addicted to smoking, he would ask her whether she minded it or not. She always shook her head.

There were some habits that existed in each other’s hearts. They had not changed even after so many years.

Zayden’s gloomy mood cleared up a little. He shook the cigarette ash and said, “I planted a spy in the gang saying that Anna was not Ryan’s biological daughter. Her mother had an affair with a man with great power. I don’t know what happened between them. Anna became Ryan’s illegitimate daughter and was taken back to the Bailey family.”

“Later, Anna’s biological father wanted to find his daughter. I knew about her leaving because her father had a lot to do with my gang.”

Nelissa frowned in disbelief. “Didn’t you leave the gang a long time ago?”

Zayden shook his head and laughed coldly. “No, I’ve always been inside. I can’t get away with it. It’s just that you and your wife don’t know. Back then, it was me, Anna, who left and safely sent her abroad to ensure that the Bailey family wouldn’t find her. I didn’t want to accept this matter, but you took him away. I have to take you back. I need someone to support me.”

“Do you think I could sneak into the Bailey family’s house on my own and escape the bodyguards’ search to take you away? It’s impossible. It’s too difficult. Most of the bodyguards were planted by the gang. They covered me and took you away. I should be leading the way for Anna and let her hide in the place I designated. When the limelight is over, I will find a way to send her abroad.”

The more Nelissa listened, the more shocked she became. She didn’t say anything. Zayden continued, “But I didn’t expect that Sean would chase after Anna. I thought they were just ordinary siblings. Later, when I brought them out, I knew that they had such a shady relationship. But Anna is a hot potato. When I took her out, I had to take responsibility to send her away.”This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“At that time, the situation was very bad, and I had no way out. If I delayed it any longer, Sean would definitely find Anna. It was still because of his wife’s ability. At that time, she wanted to send you abroad to hide, so she happened to think of the same thing as me. My wife used a lot of connections to hide the information about the flight you took. At least, the information in the hands of Sean was definitely not what he wanted to see.”

“At that time, I secretly arranged a plane seat for Anna on this flight. She went to the countryside with you.”

Zayden had finished speaking. He was still in the gang business. Except for himself, he only told Nelissa. No one else knew whether he was black or white.

Nelissa was reasonable. In this way, everything became clear. Why did Anna go to the countryside? Why did he take the same flight as her? Why did he appear beside her…

Nelissa thought for a moment and had some doubts. “I can understand why she appeared by my side at first, but she has also appeared by my side recently. Why?”

Zayden shook his head and looked at Nelissa thoughtfully. “I don’t know. I won’t take over everything after she goes to the Forbidden City. I’m just responsible for sending her away. I have already cut off contact with her. I also know something about her, but I don’t know the details.”

“But Anna seems to know you.”

Zayden’s words were astonishing.

Nelissa couldn’t touch her head at all. Why? She and Anna had only said a few words in total, and they didn’t even know their names. How could they be considered acquaintances? What was the meaning of knowing each other? At least they knew each other’s names. They could only know each other after talking for more than an hour and exchanging phone numbers!

Nelissa didn’t understand.

At the same time.

Edward finally left his home and said that the company still had a meeting to go back to work overtime. He got in the car, inserted the car key into the hole, turned on the key to the car, and lit up the quiet night. The quieter the environment was, the more clearly he told him that he was impatient and eager to go to Nelissa.

“Knock knock knock.” There was a small hand knocking outside the window.

Edward rolled down the car window. His niece, Han Penelope, said to him, “Give me a ride. Let’s go along the way.”

Han Penelope’s house was not far from the villa where Edward lived. They were in the same district, so it was indeed on the way. But Edward was going to Nelissa’s house now. He was not going home, but how could he not know his niece’s thoughts?

Therefore, Edward looked at Han Penelope with his eyes. There were not many expressions of joy and anger on his face, but only his relaxed eyebrows showed his imposing manner.

Penelope suddenly became weak. “Aren’t you going home? Where are you going at such a late hour?”

Edward didn’t answer. Instead, he said, “Don’t go back tonight. Stay here and accompany the old family. Among so many people, you are the most free. You should take care of yourself.”

Penelope quickly said, “Don’t. It’s unfair that you don’t want me to stay!”

“You were born before me, so you are qualified to be fair with me.” After that, Edward rolled down the window and started the luxury car to drive away.

Han Penelope was thrown behind the car and kicked the stone with the tip of her shoe unwillingly.

She complained in her heart that even if she was born before you, she might not be fair. Looking at her father, he was spoiled by his younger brother everywhere. Who in her family dared to point at her uncle’s nose and order him to do so? No. No one could suppress the temper of her uncle.

How did Nelissa get away with it? Han Penelope was curious.

On the way down the mountain.

There was only one luxury car on the wide road, and the dim car light covered the entire road halfway up the mountain.

Edward took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. He turned on the speaker and placed it in front of the car. The cold mechanical female voice said, “Hello, the number you dialed has been turned off. Please call later.”

Edward frowned. Nelissa’s phone had been turned off all day. He guessed that it must be broken. He picked up his phone and slid a long contact list, thinking about which number to find Nelissa.

Two little kids.

It was only then that Edward remembered that he had kept the phone number of Noelle for Nathan. These two kids often texted him during the break in the kindergarten. Otherwise, they would call him suddenly and ask him if he had had lunch. They were more sensible but more annoying than their mother. Sometimes, he was in a good mood and would reply a text message to them. When he was busy with work, he would put down his mobile phone after taking a look at it.

One of the advantages was that they wouldn’t keep texting him. They knew their limits. Generally speaking, they weren’t annoying and were smarter than other children.

Edward dialed the phone numbers of the two kids. After a while, Noelle picked up the phone in Nathan. His voice was happy and slightly lost. “Uncle, where are you?”

Edward looked at the front of the car and asked, “Where is your mother? Is she with you? Let her listen to the phone.”

Noelle and Nathan squatted on the small lawn, holding hands on the handsfree phone. She was in a bad mood. “Mom is not here. She and Uncle Le went upstairs to talk. We are playing in the garden of the villa.”

Edward frowned slightly, and there was a hint of ice in his eyes. “Where are you now?”

“It’s at Uncle Le’s house.” Noelle didn’t know what this place was like for Nathan. Their little hands were fiddling with the green grass. Nathan later, she suddenly said to the microphone, “Uncle, you can be our father. We want you to be our father. I don’t like Uncle Le, and I don’t like you either…” The strong Nathan made him want to cry. The child’s voice was mixed with the nasal sound. He touched his eyes with his little hand and said, “We don’t need to recognize our father.”

Children’s feelings were much purer and more accurate than adults’. In the past Nathan, Noelle had really liked Edward. They would text him and call him. In the process of slowly getting along with each other, Noelle had confirmed that Edward was their father and had given up their pure feelings.

However, they had heard from Jolene’s Godmother that Uncle Le might be their real father. Wouldn’t it be impossible for them to have Edward as their father if they adopted him as their father? They didn’t want him! They finally fell in love with their uncle and didn’t want to part with him like this.

His nose had been blocked for Nathan, and he sucked hard.
