Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

She was worried about her son and she didn’t want to die. She was stunned when she saw the knife going towards her heart. At that moment, her mind went blank.

At this critical moment, Sean jumped over and kicked the knife out of the assassin’s hand.

The assassin could tell that he was no match for Sean, and the other guards were already coming his way.

He broke through the glass window and jumped down. The assassin then disappeared from their sight.

Sean couldn’t care less about the assassin’s whereabouts. He held Eli’s shoulder and scolded her, “Are you alright? Are you stupid? If he hadn’t been caught off guard, you would have been dead by now.”

Eli came to her senses soon after. She felt aggrieved when Sean scolded her, “I protected your Prime Minister. If it weren’t for me, he would have died in our country. I’d like to see how you’d intend to explain this to F Country. You’re the foolish one here.”

Sean knew that Eli was right, and he owed her this time.

However, to him, Eli was more important than the Prime Minister. If something bad were to happen to her, his life would then lose all meaning.

He looked at her reddened eyes in distress. He pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. His body trembled because he was afraid of losing her.

Yvonne’s face instantly turned a little pale.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Eli looked at the people around them and pushed him away immediately.

He knew that he shouldn’t have acted so impulsively, hence, he let go of her and said in a low voice, “Your great contribution shall be rewarded on Monday.”

When he said this, it seemed that the hug was only a gesture of appreciation by the President to the people around him.

Yvonne also smiled and said, “Eli, you have done a great job.”

Eli pursed her lips and did not speak. Now that she had come around, she realized that she was quite terrified earlier.

She didn’t know what had gotten into her when she stood in front of the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister was very grateful. He turned around, hugged Eli, and said in English, “Thank you.”

Sean’s face suddenly turned gloomy. However, he knew that he couldn’t lose his temper. Eli said with a smile, “Don’t worry about it. It’s my duty.”

Sean looked at the Prime Minister, whose eyes were full of approval and appreciation. He frowned slightly and stood in front of the Prime Minister. He ordered Eli solemnly, “Go back with Colonel Cher first. I have approved your request from earlier.”

What did she request from him?

Was he talking about her request to skip the dinner tomorrow night, or was he talking about her wish to not attend these kinds of gatherings anymore in the future? She didn’t know which he was referring to.

Wonderful.

Eli smiled happily and nodded,  “Thank you, Mr. President. Good night.”

Sean noticed how sweet her smile was. If he hadn’t saved her just in time then, she wouldn’t be able to smile now.

He would teach her a lesson when he got back.

Colonel Cher came forward and took Eli away.

The Prime Minister looked at Eli’s back and praised, “Even such a delicate girl has the spirit of giving up her own life for others. I really admire the teaching in your country. I will be sure to put in a good word to my President regarding your proposal.”

“I shall thank you in advance then. I’ll get someone to send you back,” Sean smiled and nodded to his chief guard.

The chief guard immediately understood and nodded his head in return. He knew that he had to strengthen the security from now on.

Natasha looked visibly upset.

She didn’t expect that Eli would make such a big contribution as soon as she came. She looked at Yvonne.

Yvonne was still smiling. She had a kind look on her face, as though she was unbothered at all.

Sean and Yvonne went home separately.

“Madam, I think that you should teach Eli a lesson. If things were to go on like this, her position will surely surpass yours one day,” Natasha said angrily.

Yvonne looked ahead and said calmly, “If you had been the one to save the Prime Minister today, perhaps I could already arrange for you to stay by Sean’s side.”

“I suspect that that person was Eli’s man. Otherwise, how would she dare to do that?” Natasha said with a grievance.

“It couldn’t have been her man. Although that person had been caught off guard, his knife was going towards Eli’s heart. If Sean hadn’t acted in time, Eli would have been dead by now,” Yvonne had seen it clearly.

That man was going to kill Eli.

“Ah, was he targeting Eli? Who does he work for?” Natasha was surprised.

“I don’t know. His initial target was probably the Prime Minister, but he seemed to have changed his target after seeing Eli. Don’t let your feelings of envy and hatred for her blur your judgment. The most important thing for you to do now is to please Sean,” Yvonne reminded her.

Natasha felt even more aggrieved. She pouted and said, “I want to please him too, but the President never gives me a chance at all.”

“You don’t even know how to treasure it when the opportunity is in front of you. Let’s wait and see. I’ll remind you when the time comes,” Yvonne said helplessly.

At the President’s Mansion.

Eli had just taken a shower. She was lying on the bed when the door opened.

She looked at Sean and sat up on the bed, “That was quick.”

Sean saw that she was fine and knocked on her head, “Aren’t you brave? Were you seeking death?”

He knocked on her head hard, and Eli winced, “What the hell is wrong with you? I did it all for you.”

Sean looked at her dotingly, and his breathing quickened. He said seriously, “I shall take it as you were worried about me.”

Eli paused.

She had saved the Prime Minister out of instinct. If she had a moment to think earlier, she wouldn’t have been so impulsive and shield the Prime Minister.

However, it was good to have Sean lower his guard against her. It would be easier for her to get revenge as well as to leave next time.

She wasn’t smart, nor was she stupid.

Eli nodded.

Sean smiled and did not hide his surprise and excitement in his eyes. He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.

Eli couldn’t stop worrying. She was really tired today, hence, she covered her mouth. “I’ve brushed my teeth and I am going to sleep soon.”

He looked at her deeply, and he only had eyes for her. He did not force her, “Wait for me.”

He went into the bathroom, brushed his teeth, and took a shower.

She didn’t want to wait for him. She turned off the light and closed her eyes, but she didn’t fall asleep. She just pretended to be.

Sean came out wrapped in only a towel. He had already dried his hair in the bathroom.

He noticed that Eli’s eyes were closed, and she didn’t move at all.

He knew that she was still awake.

She wouldn’t be lying on the bed so gracefully if she had truly fallen asleep.

He didn’t expose her. Instead, he lifted the quilt, lay down beside her, turned off the headlights, and kept only the wall lamp on. He put his hand on Eli’s waist and said, “Eli, if you are free tomorrow, let’s go to the hospital to remove the ring.”

Eli’s body trembled. She was shocked. How could she still pretend to be asleep? She turned her head to look at him. “Why?”

“Why else would it be? I want to have another child with you,” Sean said softly, his palm wandering around her waist. The heat of his breath was above her head, and she felt incredibly uncomfortable.
