Chapter 572 What Should He Do With Her
“The Prime Minister is having a meal with the President, but we are lacking a mermaid for the performance,” Colonel Cher said.
“What mermaid? Didn’t you find an actress in advance? Why would you need me?” Natasha refused calmly.
“Not everyone is allowed to enter the President’s Mansion and not everyone is qualified to perform while they are having a meal. If you are not willing to do it, then forget it. I’ll report to the President later on,” Colonel Cher was getting impatient.
“Did the President ask you to yell at me like that too?” Natasha was suspicious.
“To be honest, the President had specially picked you. He said that you are good-looking and have a nice body figure. Even if you were to perform during the meal, it would not be disgusting since everyone already knows who you are. However, the President did say that it is entirely up to you. If you are not willing to do it, then he will not force you as well,” Colonel Cher turned around after that.
“I will do it since it is a task from the President. Will the costume look good on me?” Natasha asked worriedly.
“It’s a performance for the Prime Minister, what do you think?” Colonel Cher asked.
“Alright then,” Natasha agreed.
“However, you have to go through rehearsals. Come with me,” Colonel Cher then led the way.
Natasha followed behind obediently. She felt even more chilly as the wind blew towards her.
She pondered for a moment and decided to throw her phone into the lake when she knew that no one was looking.
Poof! Poof!
Colonel Cher turned back and looked at her. She pretended to be innocent and asked, “Yes?”
“Nothing,” Colonel Cher brought her to a storage room.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Why did you bring me here?” Natasha asked in a hoarse voice.
Colonel Cher pointed at the soldiers.
Natasha saw that the soldiers had brought over a pool that was about 1m x 2m in size.
“Why is the pool so small?” Natasha frowned.
“It’s going to be placed in the living room, how big could it be?” Colonel Cher asked back.
“How am I going to swim in it then?” Natasha was dissatisfied.
“If you can’t do it, then just forget about it. I will report it to the President later on. We’ll see if we should cancel this performance, or just find someone else to substitute you,” Colonel Cher said in disdain.
Natasha knew that Sean wouldn’t be impressed if she couldn’t complete a small task like this. She asked, “Alright. What is the water temperature?”
“The water temperature could be adjusted to 28 degrees Celsius.”
“Alright then,” Natasha took off her clothes and went into the water. She held her breath and tried to swim. However, the pool was too small for her to fully extend herself. Hence, she looked at Colonel Cher.
Colonel Cher had already turned away and walked out, leaving Natasha alone in the storage room.
She popped her head out and her lips turned pale because of the chill. Then, she climbed out of the pool and picked up her clothes on the floor. She felt even colder.
Natasha wanted to go back and change her clothes, but she was worried that Sean would see her embarrassed look if she were to head back to the house now. However, she would freeze to death if she didn’t.
At first, she wanted to get someone to send her some clothes. However, none of her phones were functioning because she just fell into the water.
She then opened the door.
There was no one around in the storage room.
Suddenly, a breeze blew over and she felt even colder.
She was worried that she would freeze to death if she were to walk around in the cold. Thus, she decided to go back and get some clothes for herself.
She walked towards the villa and tried to get in from the back door so that no one would notice her. However, before she could go in, she saw Colonel Cher coming out from the back door.
In his hand was a gift bag.
“I saw that your clothes were wet, so I got some clothes for you, as well as your costume for the performance. They are all in there,” said Colonel Cher.
“Thank you. I’ll change my clothes first before I start rehearsing. I’m freezing to death,” Natasha pushed the back door open and went inside.
Sean looked at the back door, and his lips were curved into a smile.
He remembered saying to Yvonne that he would surely make Natasha cry if she still dared to provoke Eli. Nonetheless, she never learned from the lesson and instead caused more trouble to him now.
“These dishes are delicious. Both my wife and I love them. Thank you for your kind hospitality,” The Prime Minister said to Sean in their language.
“It’s my pleasure. It’s wonderful to have both of you as my guests here. Since both of you will be leaving tomorrow morning, allow me to show you something nice about our A Country,” Sean said with a smile.
“My wife enjoys listening to the operas of your country, and she said that there is something special about it. I listened to them with her a few times, it really is amazing.”
“Yes, I’ve arranged a few operas for both of you in the afternoon, all of which are quite spectacular,” Sean said elegantly.
Meanwhile, Sean was thinking of Eli’s annoyed expression if he were to bring her to an opera. She would probably be yawning throughout the entire show.
Sigh, how should he deal with it next time when they finally get married?
In the afternoon, Eli was feeling thirsty.
She deduced that Sean must have already gone out, thus she walked out of her room and made her way to the stairs. However, she saw a beautiful young lady in her twenties and another woman in her forties sitting in the living room. She got shocked and she squatted down instantly.
Who were these people?
She had never seen them before, and they didn’t look like housekeepers at all.
She squatted down and sneaked downstairs. After that, she ran into the kitchen and got herself some water. She asked the chef, “Who are those women sitting there?”
“Oh, one of them is the Madam’s younger sister, and the other is her servant. They had just arrived just as the President and the Madam went out,” The chef replied.
Eli nodded. It turned out to be Yvonne’s younger sister.
She would rather sneak her way back upstairs than to bump into them and embarrass herself.
She got herself some water and quietly sneaked upstairs, and fortunately, she didn’t expose herself. She hurried into her room, then closed the door behind her and continued playing her games.
Time went by and the sky gradually became darker, hence, Eli turned on the light and continued engaging in her game.
After playing almost twenty matches, she finally ranked up and reached the Legend level.
When she realized that she was running out of water again, she opened her door carefully and saw Sean, who was just about to enter her room. She was overjoyed when she saw him, “You’re back, that’s great!”
Sean sensed the joy in her eyes. In fact, his mood brightened up a little when he saw Eli, “I’m here to change my clothes, and to see you at the same time.”
“Hold on a moment, you can do that later. I’m thirsty now, could you help me get some water?” She shoved the cup into Sean’s hand and closed the door behind her.
Sean was speechless.
He made his way downstairs helplessly and put the cup on the kitchen table. He then gave an order to his housekeeper, “Put a water dispenser in my room, together with two heat-insulated mugs.”
“Yes,” The housekeeper went off after receiving the order.
Sean went back to his room and dressed up quickly. After that, he went over to Eli’s room.
Eli had moved her desk to the bedside. Meanwhile, she was sitting on her bed, deeply immersed in her game.
She didn’t even notice that Sean had entered the room.
He didn’t try to catch her attention. Instead, he stood at the side and watched her play.
She hid in the bushes and let her little tiger out for a walk.
“Boss? Is that name meant for me?” Sean asked in confusion.
Eli was shocked when she heard Sean’s voice all of a sudden. She patted her own chest for comfort and rolled her eyes at him.
The name of her character in the game was called ‘imbetterthanmyboss2020’. However, when she looked at the ‘boss’ whom she was referring to in her username, she thought that it sounded rather cocky.
