Chapter 566 It Is Bad To Act Impulsively
His palm was warm. His grip on her was tight.
Eli blushed instantly. She felt so nervous beside him.
The Prime Minister was sitting right next to him. Wasn’t he acting too brazenly? What if his actions were exposed?Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Eli withdrew her hand. He did not insist, and he just stared at her deeply.
Yvonne noticed the exchange and smiled faintly.
The others took their seats one after another.
She did not care about politics nor did she know any of these people. She didn’t dare to eat anything from the table as she was afraid of embarrassing herself.
However, they had been communicating in F Country’s language the entire time and she didn’t understand any of it.
She looked at the others. They didn’t seem to understand their conversation either. They just smiled and kept silent.
She felt a sense of relief in her heart when she realized that the high officials might end up embarrassing themselves alongside her.
At this moment, Sean turned to look at her again.
Their eyes met, and she gave him a questioning look.
“Could you pour some wine for us please?” Sean said in a low voice.
She understood. She held the bottle, stood up, and poured some wine for the Prime Minister, his wife, and Sean.
The Prime Minister looked at Eli.
Eli noticed the smile on Sean’s face. At this moment, the Prime Minister had spoken a few words to her in their language.
She couldn’t understand what he was talking about.
“Welcome to A Country,” Eli said in English.
Those who couldn’t understand the F Country’s language also used this opportunity to speak up. They all raised their glasses and said with a smile, “Welcome to A Country.”
The Prime Minister paused and looked at Sean.
Sean smiled and continued to chat with him.
“I’m sorry,” the Prime Minister said to Eli in English.
“It’s alright,” Eli said.
She then said again, “Welcome to A Country.”
After all, she would not usually hold grudges unless it was a vendetta. She continued to eat with her head lowered.
Sean then handed a disposable towelette to her.
Eli thought that there was something on her face, hence, she wiped her lips with the towelette… However, there was nothing on it apart from her lipstick.
She hated Sean.
It wasn’t easy for her to wait until everyone had finished eating. She didn’t dare to eat much but she wasn’t that hungry either.
They went to listen to the symphony together after dinner.
Eli sat behind Sean. The Prime Minister and his wife were seated next to Sean and Yvonne.
It was so extravagant. There were more musicians than people listening to them.
Eli had never been interested in music, but she did not hate it either. A few songs which she had heard before had been composed into a symphony. It was pretty good.
She started yawning after listening to it for two hours.
Natasha glared at her unhappily.
Sensing the malice of the person next to her, Eli sat up straight and forced herself to focus. She then looked at Sean.
He was very patient, reserved, and elegant. Exuding the aura of a member of a royal family, he seemed to have become a graceful and outstanding man.
Why didn’t she notice it when she was a child?
If she had discovered it earlier, she would have hidden far away from him.
Sean turned to look at her. He raised his eyebrows and smirked. For a moment there, he looked like an evil ruffian, just like how he was in junior high school. However, in a flash, he returned to being a charming and elegant nobleman.
Eli watched as Natasha left the place. She immediately followed her out, found a place where there was no one around, and stretched herself out.
Suddenly, she heard Sean’s laughter.
She turned her head and noticed that Sean had followed her out. She ran to him and asked, “Did you purposely make things difficult for me because of the Sumo story I told you about earlier?”
Sean put his hands around her waist naturally and said, “I would have taken you to the opera if I had wanted to make things difficult for you.”
“In that case, could you stop inviting me to these kinds of gatherings in the future? I get bored really easily in these kinds of events,” Eli asked.
“Give me a kiss first,” Sean leaned forward to her.
“You’ll be done for if someone sees us,” Eli reminded him.
“I’m sure that there is no one else here apart from you and me,” Sean said very confidently.
“By the way, why did you come out? Are you done accompanying the Prime Minister? Can we go home now?” Eli asked.
He tightened his grip on her waist and said, “Don’t change the subject.”
Eli looked around helplessly and realized that there was indeed no one else there. She pecked his face quickly.
Sean smiled and kissed her on the face in satisfaction, “Let’s go. There are still ten minutes left. We will go back once it’s over. You don’t have to wake up early tomorrow.”
“I heard from your wife that you’ll be inviting them to your house for dinner tomorrow. Is it alright if I’m not around?” Eli tried to negotiate.
“From now on, you have to do everything that Yvonne asks you to do. You should learn from her,” Sean said seriously.
Eli had a strange feeling in her heart.
He wouldn’t marry her for real, would he?
Eli shuddered. The mere thought of it was enough to make her panic. She then followed Sean back into the theater.
Just as he had expected, the show was over in ten minutes.
Sean and the Prime Minister walked in front and talked happily.
Eli understood a small part of their conversation. They were talking about football. However, she still couldn’t understand most of it.
Sean’s chief guard stood by the side as they walked out of the corridor. He looked at Sean with pursed lips.
“I’m sorry. Please excuse me for a moment,” Sean said as he walked over to the chief guard.
“Mr. President, this is bad. One of the outsiders has disguised himself as one of our men, so our security has been compromised. I’ve already arranged a new route. Please follow me when the time comes,” the chief guard reported.
“Got it. We must ensure the Prime Minister’s safety,” Sean ordered.
At this moment, he noticed a man running towards them in the corridor, and his eyes gleamed with a sharp light. He ordered vigilantly, “Stop him.”
The soldiers noticed the suspicious person and took their positions quickly. They protected Sean, Yvonne, the Prime Minister, and his wife well.
Eli had not been arranged a guard due to her last-minute appearance. Therefore, there was no one there to protect her. She stood alone in front of them.
Sean’s heart tightened. He rushed towards Eli, disregarding his own safety.
Eli was also afraid. She had witnessed the same scene once in D Country.
At that time, that person was also rushing toward her. Allen’s men had blocked those who were going after her. Unexpectedly, the person in the car fired his gun.
Her mother died to protect her.
She looked at the rest of the group. With her sharp eyes, she noticed that the person across her was holding a knife in his hand and looking at the Prime Minister sharply.
She had a bad feeling, “Be careful, Mr. Prime Minister.”
She then stood in front of the Prime Minister. She didn’t know how she had found the courage to do that.
The man didn’t expect that there would be another person standing in his way. He was stunned for a while as he continued to charge towards Eli.
Eli thought that she was dead for sure.
She felt so foolish for sacrificing herself for someone whom she didn’t even know.
She had done it before for Stella, but now, she did it for a stranger.
Nothing good would come from acting so impulsively…
