Chapter 553 He’s Not An Ordinary Man
Eli pushed his chest away and changed the subject, asking, “Well, Sean, when are you going to meet with your men? Have you arranged for it?”
“I have already given the order. They will report to me once everything is arranged. There will be a foreign ambassador coming over tomorrow night. I need to entertain him,” Sean said.
“Are you going to show them the national quintessence of our country?” Eli seemed to have thought of something and her eyes narrowed.
“Yes, what were you thinking?” Sean was curious.
In the past, she would always start to act mischievously when such a smile appeared on her face.
“The President of the United States visited Japan not long ago. They brought him to witness one of the authentic experiences of the country, Sumo Fighting. As a result, the two fighters were still sparring with each other on the field after four hours. It was an extremely boring experience. If you have a grudge against the foreign ambassador, you could do that as well,” Eli grinned.
Sean smiled too, “You are so creative, why don’t you make the itinerary for the foreign ambassador then? I will give you the position of the Minister of Cultural Inheritance.”
“A Minister has to work hard. Just give me a deputy position. That way, I could take my salary without actually doing the job.”
“Is the money that I had given you insufficient? I checked your card last time. There are still 6 billion dollars in it. You are definitely not short of money.”
Eli blinked her eyes.
She snorted.
She was his benefactor in X Country, and the money was indeed transferred to her account. However, she didn’t even know her card number and password.
She once wanted to check her account balance, but she realized that her access was denied.
She didn’t even have authority over her own card.
However, she didn’t bother too much about it as she felt that it wasn’t her own money anyway.
How dare he bring this matter up!
“Will you give me that card then?” Eli asked without any expectations.
“I’ll give you everything once we get married,” Sean promised.
Eli sneered.
He was comforting her again. Would he divorce his wife? Impossible.
She knew it very well.
All men were the same. They wanted to have mistresses without divorcing their wives even though some of their mistresses were even capable to strengthen his position. Was there any difference between a prostitute and a mistress?
Besides, would she get married just for the sake of money? She rolled her eyes and refused to talk to him anymore. She logged into her Facebook account and read several messages that her friend had left for her.
“Hmm? Are you ignoring me again?”
“What should I do with you?”
“I’m going to take off now. See you tomorrow.”
See you tomorrow?
Well, since he had taken good care of her when she was in D Country, she thought it was only appropriate if she hosted him.
“Sean, I have something on tomorrow,” Eli said.
“What is it?” Sean looked at her.
“I don’t need to report everything to you, do I?” Eli said, displeased.
Sean’s eyes sank.
In the past, they still had a son together, so he didn’t mind letting her out. He knew that she wouldn’t leave far away.
However, now that she had their son away, he was afraid that she would just disappear all of a sudden.
“Don’t you want to take revenge anymore?” Sean asked.
“But you hadn’t even arranged to meet with your men,” Eli retorted.
“Therefore, you think that you’re free to go anywhere, don’t you?” Sean’s voice became cold.
“Well, obviously?” Eli’s nerves were tense and she was a little scared.
“Well, I’m not trying to restrict your freedom, but everywhere is dangerous for you now. Those who want to kill you and those who killed your mother are all watching you. They will try to attack you whenever you are alone. Therefore, it’s better for you to stay with me, understand?” Sean said seriously.
“Nothing happened to me when I came back last night, right?”
“No one knows that you are back. Even I only knew about it not too long ago. A lot of people are aware of your return now, therefore, you mustn’t’ linger around. Where do you want to go? I will accompany you tomorrow,” Sean softened his tone and said.
Eli stared at Sean. She pondered over his words, and she looked slightly uneasy.
Sean knew that he had scared her, hence, he put his arm around her shoulder. “Well, you’ll be safe once we find the person who wants to kill you.”
Eli pushed him away.
“Silly,” Sean teased her helplessly.
Eli looked out of the window.
Ever since she met him five years ago, nothing fortunate had happened to her.
He took the initiative to inch closer to her and hold her shoulder.
She looked at his fair and slender hand, slightly upset when she noticed the wedding ring on his ring finger.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
For the sake of revenge, she shall bear with it for now.
“I have a friend coming tomorrow, and I want to meet him. Could you send someone over to protect me?” Eli said softly.
“A man or a woman?” Sean asked.
“A man,” Eli answered frankly.
Sean’s heart tightened and his face darkened, “I’m free tomorrow. I’ll come along with you.”
“That’s not appropriate, is it? You’re the president, and I’m only your assistant. Furthermore, you’re married. How could you accompany a young assistant to meet her friends? What will be the media’s comment if they were to discover it? I heard that there were a lot of rumors about you recently. Don’t you want to be the President anymore?” Eli said bluntly.
Sean knocked her head.
It hurt her, so she pushed him away with great strength.
Sean was mad when she pushed him away. He frowned and said, “Wouldn’t it be best if I were to accompany you? Did you think that I’ll disturb you guys?”
“As I said, you’re married, so you should play the role accordingly. It is not appropriate for you to do this. Furthermore, I have a crush on him. Of course, I am concerned that you would disturb us,” Eli raised her voice, provoked.
Sean was extremely pissed off. He held her chin and said, “I’ve explained to you that there’s nothing between Yvonne and me. Our relationship is purely transactional and we are not real husband and wife. You just wanted to piss me off, didn’t you?”
“I don’t even have the freedom to make friends anymore, do I?” Eli was furious.
“It depends on what kind of friends you are talking about. You aren’t even aware of to whom you belong. How could I let you have an affair with someone?” Sean said.
Eli pushed his hand away, “Who do you think you are? I think that you’re the one who doesn’t know your place. You are not my boyfriend, at most, a one-night-stand.”
“One-night-stand? It seems that you are still confused,” Sean said with reddened eyes. His whole body was shrouded in coldness. He pulled the corner of his mouth, which made Eli feeling fearful, “Talk to me once you calmed down.”
Who would want to talk to him?
She turned her face away and crossed her arms around her chest in anger.
What would happen whenever a couple got into a fight?
They would go into a cold war, break up, and stay away from each other. They would then mend their injured heart by listening to music, traveling, and gathering with their friends. Eventually, everything would fade away gradually and they would live a new life.
However, she seemed to have forgotten that Sean was not an ordinary person.
It was not until Eli was sent to the confined room that she realized that this man was never ordinary.
