Chapter 541 She Is The Only Woman He Wants
“Stella, come with me,” Sean said.
Stella followed Sean out of the door and into the meeting room next door.
His soldiers then closed the door.
“You pushed the country into the limelight to deal with Christian. Is this really what you wish to see? Are you sure that this is what Jasper wants you to do?” Sean asked.
“Firstly, I was not the one who had pushed the country into the limelight. Secondly, I wouldn’t have come here if that was my intention. Thirdly, don’t talk about the country with me. I don’t think that you are any better than I am,” Stella said coldly.
“Stop it. That’s enough, isn’t it?” Sean warned, “If you don’t stop, I will have no choice but to go against you.”
“Why would you go against me? Are you doing that because you thought that I wanted to deal with Christian?” Stella asked calmly.
“You set Allen’s factory on fire in order to deal with Christian. You even involved innocent people and let Allen apply for international arbitration. This will affect the interests of the country. The foreign investors in our country might even withdraw their investment. If that were to happen, our country will be losing out and the country’s international status will be affected.
I am warning you not because of your squabble with Christian, but because you’ve been blinded by hatred, and that the nation has become your collateral damage. I don’t want you to do anything even more outrageous than this,” Sean said in a low voice.
“As I have said earlier, I wouldn’t have been here if I had intended to harm the country’s interests. You clearly know how to protect the country’s interests. You’re the one who gets to decide whether or not the country is harmed, not me,” Stella said coldly.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“So, you don’t intend to stop, do you?” Sean saw her determination.
Stella chuckled and looked at Sean coldly, “Eli is back. If you don’t want to hurt her, don’t look for her. My people are already protecting her.”
“What?” Sean didn’t expect that Stella would suddenly change the topic. He paused for a while, and countless emotions flashed through his eyes. There were hints of worry, hope, and surprise in his gaze.
He held Stella’s shoulder excitedly, “Is Eli really back? Where is she now?”
“Her parents are dead, and your son as well,” Stella said coldly.
Sean paused again, his breathing tensing up. He frowned in disbelief, “What are you talking about? I heard that only her mother had died in that accident. How could her father and our son have died too?”
“Sean, you should be aware of your current situation. You failed to protect Eli in the past. Now, you know clearly that your position is in jeopardy and you mustn’t cause any trouble that would ruin your reputation. For the sake of Eli’s safety, please let her go. That’s all I want to say. It’s getting late, I should head back now,” Stella said. She then turned around, opened the door, and went out.
Sean was stunned for a while before coming to his senses.
He knew that he shouldn’t look for Eli. He knew that his situation was precarious and he couldn’t make even the slightest mistake. However, he just couldn’t control his heart.
He thought of Eli and he felt an urge to see her. He wanted to know what had happened to her and why their son and her parents had passed away. He wanted to make it up to her and ease the pain in her heart.
Sean made a phone call and went out, “Help me find out where Eli is now. I need to know the answer in the next fifteen minutes.”
Fifteen minutes later, Sean was informed that Eli was in Room 1102 of the Intercontinental Hotel.
Without bringing his men, he put on his mask, cap, sunglasses, and headed straight for the hotel.
He stood outside the door of Room 1102.
His hands were trembling, and he thought about all kinds of possibilities that might happen when Eli sees him.
She would hate him, scold him, and perhaps, she might even want to kill him.
Even so, he would oblige to her every want.
This time, he would not let her go.
Sean rang the doorbell.
The door opened. Eli stood inside the room and looked at the disguised man in front of her with drooping eyes.
Sean noticed that she had become much thinner than before, and her chin was sharp.
His heart ached and he hugged her out of impulse. His voice was hoarse and his breathing was somewhat hurried. He said, “Eli, don’t ever leave again.”
Eli looked at him.
She had recognized him at first glance. After all, not many people had Sean’s unique aura.
“If I wanted to leave, I wouldn’t have come back,” Eli said calmly.
Sean looked at Eli.
She looked straight at him and raised her eyebrows. Her eyes were red as she said, “My mom is dead, my dad is dead, and our son is dead too.”
“I swear, I will take care of you for the rest of my life,” Sean promised.
“Do you know who had killed my mother?” Eli asked directly.
“I checked. They’re from a foreign organization and they were probably hired by someone. Unfortunately, the organization refused to reveal anything,” Sean explained.
Eli smiled and asked tentatively, “Sean, will you kill me?”
“Why would I kill you? You are my child’s mother, you’re my…” Sean paused and said, “Don’t worry, I wouldn’t kill you even if I had to kill myself.”
Eli shrugged and looked into his extremely charming eyes. “I’ll believe you for the time being.”
Believe him for the time being?
These words made him feel uneasy.
However, Eli did not seem to care whether he was feeling uneasy. She merely turned around, walked to the bar, and poured some red wine for herself. She leaned on the bar and looked at him. “It hasn’t been long since we last met, but you’ve lost a lot of weight.”
“You too,” Sean walked in and closed the door.
Eli took a sip of wine calmly and smiled, “I’m on a diet. Why are you here?”
“I miss you,” Sean said softly.
Eli smiled and shook the glass lazily, “It’s my honor to be missed by the President. But you shouldn’t do this kind of thing in the future anymore. My husband will be jealous and he would be worried about me too.”
“What?” Sean was shocked. He frowned, a sharp light flashing in his eyes, “What do you mean? Are you married?”
Eli raised her eyebrows. “Can’t I get married?”
At that moment, Sean noticed that she was wearing a ring on her ring finger. His face was as pale as paper. He asked, “Who is it?”
“It’s none of your business,” Eli said calmly.
He once thought that she would fall in love with someone again, marry someone else, and have his children once she disappeared from his world.
However, he couldn’t bear the thoughts of her being with another man. He had to find her.
He could leave her alone, but he would not let any man pursue her like he did before. He would be the only person in her world.
He could not accept the fact that she was married. He felt as though he had been stabbed in the heart. It hurt so much, so much so than the death of his parents.
She was the only woman he had ever loved and the only woman he had ever wanted.
“I won’t allow it,” Sean said domineeringly.
