Chapter 574 In Fact, He Didn’t Want To Leave
Sean didn’t want to leave the room. He wanted to accompany Eli while she played the game. He wanted to kiss her and never let her go.
Eli tried hard to push him away but to no avail. Hence, she frowned and pinched his waist.
Sean let go of her because he was afraid of being tickled.
“I’m still playing. I’m going to lose if you keep doing this,” Eli complained.
“So what if you lost? It’s not as though you haven’t lost before. I’m going out for dinner later and I won’t be back so soon. Don’t wait up for me. Just go to bed when you feel sleepy. Take care of yourself when you’re at home,” Sean said reluctantly as he didn’t want to leave.
Sean had become clingy ever since Eli came back even though he was never an overly-attached man.
“Don’t worry about me. Ah, dude, could you please get out of the way and return my mouse?” Eli pushed Sean away.
Sean looked at Eli coldly and said to her, “Do you believe that I’d bring you along to the dinner? I believe that the Prime Minister would very much like to meet you.”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Eli narrowed her eyes and said coquettishly, “Sean, I am the boss’ girlfriend. Wouldn’t I ruin your reputation if I were to lose this game? Just go ahead and let me play the game in peace, okay?”
“So, you’re admitting that the boss in your username refers to me then?”
“Have you forgotten that you had promised to let me be on the top? It made me so happy that I wanted to show off by putting it in my username,” Eli explained.
Sean touched her nose and said softly, “Alright, I’ll let you be happy for the time being, but you have to change your username tomorrow.”
“Okay, fine,” Eli said obediently.
She noticed that Sean was finally heading to the door, so she immediately pressed the CTRL key and spoke to her teammates, “The three of us have to stick together. We have to follow the previous strategy when the map gets smaller later. I will go to the front to check out the situation, and both of you will follow me at the back.”
Bobo replied, “Pretty girl, since we have been playing for the whole afternoon, do you want to have a meal with me?”
“Where do you stay? Let me see whether it will be convenient for both of us,” Eli said.
Bobo then replied, “As long as you are willing to, I could come over to you no matter where you stay and treat you to a good meal.”
“Oh alright, I’m in A city of A Country.”
Bobo replied,”… Well, I could bring you out for food the next time when you’re in X Country.”
Meanwhile, Sean had left the room. He gave Austin a call, saying, “There’s someone named Bobo in the trial version of the game. Look for him and terminate his account. No matter what the person says, just ignore it and block his account.”
“Oh, okay.”
“While you’re at it, terminate another account named Grace. Do it no matter what she says,” Sean hung up the call after saying that. He finally felt much better.

Natasha was still practicing for the mermaid performance when night fell. When she saw Colonel Cher coming over, she leaned against the side of the glass pool and said to him, “Colonel Cher, that’s enough. I’m freezing to death.”
“Okay,” Colonel Cher replied and placed a glass of the hot tea on the table, “Drink this and we will go to the venue of the performance.”
“Okay,” Natasha came out of the freezing water, her whole body trembling. She quickly put on her clothes then started drinking the hot tea, which helped to warm her body.
Colonel Cher turned around and started walking, so Natasha quickly followed him from behind. They got into his car and left.
There was slight traffic on the road. Natasha looked out of the window anxiously and said, “Why haven’t we arrived yet? You should’ve asked someone to clear the road for us.”
At this moment, Colonel Cher’s phone rang and he answered, “Mr. President, we are currently stuck in traffic. I am not sure when we’ll reach the venue, but we’ll try to get there as soon as possible. Okay, I’m sorry.”
Natasha asked Colonel Cher after he hung up the call, “What’s wrong? What did the President say?”
“He told us to be quick because the banquet is about to start. It would not be appropriate for you to enter the venue once the banquet starts,” Colonel Cher said in a low voice.
“Could you please hurry up then? I don’t know when we will arrive if you were to continue driving so slowly. It’s all your fault. You should’ve just let me leave earlier,” Natasha complained and suddenly felt aggrieved because she had been practicing for the whole afternoon.
Colonel Cher made a phone call and said, “Director Wood, I am rushing somewhere now, could you please clear the road for us? I need you to clear the road from Life Care Road to Gardenia Road, and from Gardenia Road to Heaven Road. What? It will take half an hour for you to get here? It’s fine then. I’ll reach there in half an hour.”
Natasha stomped her feet impatiently and keep banging on Colonel Cher’s seat.
Colonel Cher looked calmly at Natasha in the rearview mirror.
This was why one should never offend the President, ever. No one could ever beat him in these games. Colonel Cher shivered and suddenly started to admire Eli. It seemed that she was the only one who could defeat the President.
Natasha was already 45 minutes late when she arrived at the restaurant. She quickly changed into her costume and went into the pool. Soon, the portable pool was moved into the private room.
Yvonne was a little surprised to see Natasha in the pool.
“Oh my God!” Mrs. Osborne was very surprised. She covered her mouth in awe and said, “Isn’t that the Madam’s assistant?”
Yvonne smiled and said in a gentle and elegant tone, “We would like to express our friendly gratitude for our most honored guests.”
“That’s great! We enjoyed your hospitality, and we really appreciate it,” Mrs. Osborne said to Yvonne.
Sean raised his glass and said, “I hope that you’ve had a good day.”
“Yes, I am very happy. The only regret would be that I didn’t get a chance to meet Miss Wayne,” Mr. Osborne said while clinking his glass with Sean’s.
“By the way, does Miss Wayne have a boyfriend? I was thinking maybe I could introduce her to a good man that I know of,” Mrs. Osborne was trying to suggest an arranged marriage.
They knew what it meant.
Yvonne smiled and said, “She has a boyfriend who grew up together with her. It seems like they will get married soon.”
“Oh, that’s too bad then,” Mrs. Osborne said in disappointment.
“I’m not sure who is the good man you are talking about, but I have a younger sister who is still single. Perhaps, we could introduce them to each other,” Yvonne continued the conversation.
“It’s Issac’s brother and he’s 28 years old this year. He’s known to be a playful man, so we thought of getting him a wife to take care of him.”
“I think that my younger sister will be quite a good match for him then, age-wise.” Yvonne introduced her sister more zealously. She thought of grabbing this opportunity for her sister because the powers of the Prime Minister of F country was comparable to the President. Besides that, he could also be a competent candidate for the next presidency.
“How old is Miss Harington?” Issac asked.
“She is 26 this year,” Yvonne said with a smile.
“We wanted to find an older girl as the younger ones couldn’t seem to control him. I personally think that older girls will be more charming and more suitable for my younger brother,” He rejected Yvonne’s suggestion euphemistically.
Yvonne was a little embarrassed but she immediately composed herself and replied, “Yes, it also depends on the fate between two people. Things will happen naturally if they are meant to be together. Likewise, there’s no point in forcing things if fate doesn’t allow.”
