Pampered Like A Princess

Chapter 219



Nelissa rested her chin on her hand and thought for a while. It was good that Penelope had left. She didn’t want so many people to know that Noelle had been Edward’s child for Nathan. She was afraid that the Hales family would steal her child.

In the end, Nelissa still told Edward about it. Maybe Penelope would call to ask him.

However, Edward didn’t take it seriously. His niece, Han Penelope, didn’t dare to question him, but he didn’t say anything to Nelissa. Nelissa always thought that he was too overbearing, strong in image, and hard to get along with. He was just domineering to her alone.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Let’s go out and play tennis.” Edward had already booked a playground for two hours. During the past Nathan, he had been keen on all outdoor activities. Only Nelissa was not in the mood. Edward was holding her little hand, which was slender and fleshy. It was so white that it pierced straight into his heart. His chest suddenly felt a little hot. “Why is your skin always so white? Have you rarely exercised?”

Nelissa glanced at him. She couldn’t tell if he was really reciting the scripture or if he was pretending to be serious. She said in a muffled voice, “… I’m not doing exercise.”

Edward raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “Why?”

Nelissa was too embarrassed to say that she was an exercise idiot. No matter how good her outfit was, it was useless. When she was in school, she had been doing sports classes. Every time she stepped on the lowest line and barely passed the exam, it would cost her half of her life.

Edward said in a low voice, “I’ll play tennis with you later.”

Nelissa said casually, “No, I won’t.”

Edward said simply, “I’ll teach you.”

Nelissa: “…”

When they arrived at the tennis court, the sunshine outside the room gradually became lively and brilliant.

Noelle played without any teachers for Nathan. The two children fought with each other without any rules. Anyway, they were the same age and height, so they played very well.

Standing on the tennis court, Nelissa felt dizzy and her limbs were a little weak. Edward asked her to take the test first.

Her first shot was slow, and the second shot was faster. The third shot was empty…

Edward knew that Nelissa could not play tennis, so he was in charge of it.

The ball passed, but Nelissa didn’t move. She was a little slow before she turned around and looked at the ball on the ground.

Edward asked, “Why didn’t you call?”

Nelissa blinked and said, “… It’s too fast.”

Alright, let’s slow down.

Edward shot another ball. Nelissa still didn’t move, looking at him innocently. Her clear eyes were shining under the sun.

He asked with a smile, “Can’t you see the ball coming over?”

Nelissa muttered, “I saw it, but I thought it would fall on my side.”

Well, let’s leave it to her.

Edward felt that men could only play tennis with men. Nelissa was too delicate and tender. When he played it on her, he was always worried that she would not be able to catch the ball. The ball would hit her elbow, knee, and even little face. Her skin was too delicate. If he rubbed it a little hard on the bed, it would immediately turn red. If the ball didn’t go well, it would easily scratch her. He didn’t want her to hurt.

Therefore, she had to be careful and grasp the strength of every ball. In the end, not only did Nelissa’s face turn red from exhaustion, but Edward’er was also a little tired.

Nelissa shouted to stop, dropped the racket, and went to beg for mercy for Edward. “Edward… Hubby, stop. My hands are sore, and my fingers will be peeled off.”

Edward enjoyed Nelissa’s action very much. He carefully observed her wet and flushed face and let her do as she said, “If you don’t want to fight, then don’t fight. From now on, arrange your exercise in the evening, C.”

Nelissa’s face was redder, but she still nodded obediently. She whispered, “I hate sports.”

Edward chuckled, his eyes dark and evil. “Which kind of exercise?”

Nelissa ignored him and turned to walk to the bottom of the sun umbrella. There were towels, drinks, water, and snacks on the table and chairs.

Nelissa picked up a rolled-up towel and wiped her cheeks and neck. Edward approached her waist and hips without her knowing. His strong arms touched her slender waist as if he was carefully choosing.

This man was really good at flirting.

Nelissa twisted her body and touched his hot chest with her fair elbow. “Don’t lean on me. It’s hot.”

Edward didn’t take a towel with his slender hands, but quickly grabbed Nelissa’s wrist. He spread out her thin fingers and carefully examined her palm. His handsome face darkened slightly. “It’s red, but it’s not peeling off. It’s only been 20 minutes since I played tennis, but the flesh on my palm has already turned red. Is there a thorn on the ball you’re holding?”

Nelissa said very seriously, “I’m nervous that I can’t hit the ball. Once I’m nervous, I’ll tighten my grip on the ball and pat it harder. I’m even a little sweaty.” She then continued, “Well, it’s really a thorn. Don’t force me to play tennis with you in the future.”

“Little slippery.” Edward tapped her forehead with his finger, pulled out the chair, and sat down with her hand.

In the end, he did not use the towel prepared on the table. He took out his handkerchief, opened a bottle of mineral water, poured it on the silk handkerchief, wet it, and dried it a little to wipe his warm and delicate palm. He said, “Even your skin is so delicate. How did you suffer in the past?”

Nelissa raised her chin and leaned on Edward’s broad shoulder. She recalled that she had never done any rough work when she was the most poor in Southville City.

She was glad that she was good at playing the piano and had high scores. Those high-end western restaurants or bars were willing to hire her, but her salary was collected every day and was not high. Sometimes, she could earn less than 3, 000 yuan a month without a day.

Very few.

She recalled and said, “I know how to play the piano, but at that time, I played it every day. After I finished playing in a restaurant, I went to a bar on the night stand, and I couldn’t feel my fingers.”

Edward’s big hand, which was wiping Nelissa’s hand, stopped violently. After a long while, he uttered a deep “hmm” in a low and deep voice. The pain in his chest kept spreading and expanding, filling his heart layer by layer into the deepest part of the pain. Only then did he realize that he felt very sorry for Nelissa.

She could not help feeling upset and upset.

Edward swore in his heart that he would protect Nelissa and would not let her suffer any more.

That night, Edward, Nelissa, and Noelle left the holiday house for Nathan. They still had work to do in the next seven days. Noelle had to go to school for Nathan, so she stayed in the resort for two days and one night. Then she drove back home.

On Monday, working hours, Victory group.

Jolene had personally handed over the resignation letter to the boss. It was said that the boss was trying his best to persuade Jolene to stay behind and had even given him quite a bit of treatment. Therefore, the department managed by Jolene did not have a formal meeting until almost noon.

She threw a seductive glance at Nelissa.

Nelissa instantly understood. It looked like the boss’ plan to keep him was not successful. Jolene had made up his mind to leave.

At noon, for some reason, the boss invited Nelissa to have lunch with him. Nelissa agreed passively and planned to ask for a few days off from the boss. Her mother would have an operation tomorrow morning. In the next few days, she wanted to stay in the hospital to accompany her mother, so she had to ask for leave.

Originally, she only needed to ask for Jolene’s permission for leave. Now that Jolene had resigned and was only waiting for him to leave, her authority would definitely be greatly reduced. She still needed a few days off, so she could only ask the boss for instructions.

The restaurant was a private restaurant with local dishes and fresh ingredients.

At the door of the private room, they met the cooperative client Wang Yian, who was accompanied by a young woman. They didn’t know if she was his wife, colleague, or Lil Mi. Nelissa didn’t look him up and down, but nodded slightly to Wang Yian as a greeting. The old general greeted him politely.

Such a handsome man had the aura of a successful man in society. The fifty-year-old boss was standing beside him, which made him more eye-catching.

Nelissa seemed absent-minded and only thought of Edward.

In this society, men and women all needed a kind of confidence, but the source of this confidence determined whether this person was noble or not. Edward was noble and could not be copied.

After Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang finished chatting, Nelissa followed him into the private room for dinner.

At this moment, Wang Jing’an tilted his head slightly and caught a glimpse of Nelissa’s white and clean face. Then, there was only her black hair with her back to him. The white of that moment dazzled his eyes.

He felt very frivolous.

During the meal, the boss would talk to her from time to time. Nelissa was busy dealing with it and had almost no appetite. Everyone in the company knew that she had been transferred to the head office with Jolene and had a good relationship with him. The boss wanted to ask her if Jolene had jumped out of line or simply resigned.

Actually, the company’s headquarters was so large that it didn’t lack a department director like Jolene. However, he was still a talent after all. He always wanted to keep talents for the company and company. If he wanted to make a big mistake, he had to find out if he wanted to compete for the company’s market price.

Nelissa didn’t reveal much information. She kept walking around and finally said, “I have a relative in my family who wants to have an operation. I want to take a week off.”

The president looked up and thought, “It’s a little too much a week.”

Nelissa said lightly, “It’s a very important operation. I have to ask for leave tomorrow.” If she couldn’t get the leave, she wouldn’t go back to the company to work tomorrow. At worst, she could write a resignation letter. As for the leave, she would talk about it later.

Seeing that Nelissa was determined to take a leave, the president decided to give her a leave after some consideration. After dinner, they left the restaurant. The president drove Nelissa back to the company. In the car, Nelissa’s phone rang in her bag. She took it out and saw sweet words floating on the screen: Hubby.

Beside him, Nelissa answered the phone in a low voice. “Hello.”

Edward’s magnetic voice rang out. He asked her, “Where are you?”

Nelissa said, “I just finished eating. I’m with the boss now.”
