Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Sean put a gun into her holster, “It’s loaded, so don’t shoot unless you have to.”

Eli looked at him, stunned, “Will the person die if I shoot him with the gun?”

“The gun is real, but it also depends on the part of the body that suffered the shot,” Sean said deeply. He took her hand and held it tightly.

For some reason, she could feel that he was being unusually stern, unlike his usual self. It was as though something big was going to happen.

“Let’s go. Don’t forget to put on your down jacket before you leave the ship. See you on the deck,” Sean let go of Eli’s hand and headed back to his room before heading out.

Eli left her room soon after. She put on her down jacket and went to the deck. Sean was already there and he was wearing a black trench coat over his suit. His hands were in his pockets, and his back was against her. The hem of his coat swayed slightly with the wind, and the leaves on the trees rustled slightly. The whole scene made him look extremely dashing and elegant. Was it because he dressed less?

She thought that it was a little chilly, especially when the sea breeze blew over. Her body trembled slightly, but her mind seemed to have become much more refreshed.

This man, whose back alone could make a girl go completely gaga, had actually spent the night with her. It was rather unbelievable… in a good way.

Sean turned to look at her. His sharp gaze and his royal aura seemed to dazzle Eli for a second. It was nothing like the usual feeling she had when he was with her.

She composed herself and looked at him in confusion.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Sean remained quiet. He walked towards the shore and he was immediately followed by many others.

Eli followed his lead, and in a short while, they made it to shore.

There were more than ten vehicles there in addition to the two dozen officers waiting with straightened backs on the shore.

They all treated Sean with respect, not daring to raise their heads.

The doors to the car were then opened.

Colonel Cher took the passenger seat while Eli and Sean got into the back seat.

She looked over to Sean.

Sean’s gaze was cold as he looked ahead with an unapproachable aura. Even she didn’t even dare to speak. She looked out of the window and listened to the sound of the waves lapping against the rocks.

As no one was speaking, Eli felt that the atmosphere was sullen and depressing. The tension in the air was stifling. She took a deep breath.

All of a sudden, she could feel a surge of warmth resting on her hand.

Eli looked over to Sean, who was holding her hand, his eyes still looking ahead. He then asked, “Is everything ready?”

The driver replied, “We’re all ready to go. We have assigned ten people in a group,  and there are twenty-seven groups in total. The assignments were made randomly.”

“Alright. Colonel Cher, you and the Sergeant will stay in the control room and take charge of the whole operation. Should anything happen, report it to me immediately, do you understand?” Sean instructed.

“Yes.” Colonel Cher nodded respectfully.

“Aldred, has anyone been sneaking off the island lately?” Sean asked.

Aldred’s body trembled as he reported, “All missions were carried out in accordance with the orders of the superiors. No one dared to disobey the military orders, and no private actions have been found so far.”

“Is that so? I’m going to assign you a task now, which you must carry out alone in secrecy. You mustn’t let anyone find out about this,” Sean instructed.

“Understood, Mr. President,” Aldred replied cautiously.

“Most of the Invisibles will be training this afternoon, and only a few will be at the base. I’ve brought over a hundred pinhole cameras, and you are to install them according to the plans that I have here. Don’t tell anyone about this, not even Hodge and Brock,” Sean ordered coldly.

Aldred finally understood why the training was so done on such a large-scale and had most of the Invisibles participating. It turned out to be for the installation of pinhole cameras, “Consider it done, Mr. President.”

Sean remained quiet.

Eli looked over at Sean, visibly touched.

He had done all that just to protect her, and if the person who was going to kill her were indeed one of the Invisibles, he would then be able to keep track of his movements first.

Her heart, too, was made of flesh and blood. She could feel his care deeply.

Although he had forced her against her will, imprisoned her, and denied her freedom before, he had not harmed her and instead, given her everything that she needed.

He even tried to treat her better this time around. He did not make things difficult for her even when she lived in his house. Even though he knew that Natasha had bullied her, he still sought justice on behalf of her even though he knew that going against Natasha could potentially ruin his position as the President.

Long ago, when she was still a teenager, she dreamed that there would be a prince who would see her under the diamond in the rough and give her a happy life. The prince would be handsome, gentle, considerate, loving, fond, and tolerant of her. Her future son would also be a prince, and her future daughter a veritable princess.

However, it was only the unrealistic dream of a child. As she grew older, the dream of a prince was discarded in the dust of youth. For her, a mature and stable man with a regular job, who was not a womanizer and not ugly, was all she needed.

After all, there were too few princes and too many girls in the world. She was neither as smart as Stella nor as gentle as her. She was not strong or mature either. Above all, she was not as ambitious and perfect as she was.

She was just an ordinary woman. There was nothing special about her background, and neither was her character outstanding. Women like her could be found everywhere on the street.

Hence, she refused to believe it when Sean first confessed his love to her. The disparity between them was too great, and she didn’t feel sad when Sean married someone else and chose to keep her captive instead, for she knew that there was no way she and Sean could be together.

The only special thing they had was that they had been classmates when they were kids.

Both their fathers held powerful positions at that time. However, his father eventually became the President and Sean turned into a real Prince Charming.

It was amazing just thinking about it. When she was young, she liked a certain idol group, and the three youngsters were also high school students. She thought that it would be fun to be classmates with the three, as they would get to meet the stars every day. It must be easy to get autographs as their classmates.

However, now that she thought about it, Sean’s classmates must have felt happy as well. After all, they were once classmates with the President.

Eli giggled softly. She had even slept with the President. It could well be a story that she could brag about for the rest of her life.

Sean heard Eli’s giggling and his grip on her hand tightened.

Eli turned to look at Sean and met his sultry eyes. She could feel warmth creeping up her cheeks. She became redder as she recalled the details of their intimate encounter the night before. Immediately, she cleared her throat and looked away. Her face was burning. Eli then opened the window slightly, and a cold breeze blew in.

Sean smiled softly. A hint of warmth appeared in his cold eyes.

Eli saw a few houses not far away and said, “We’re almost there.”

Sean let go of her hand, and the hint of warmth in his eyes faded away almost instantly.
