Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

She was reminded of the time she spent in Jasper’s army.

Jasper was stern and meticulous. From a distance, one could feel his aura of royalty, responsibility, and confidence.

However, Sean’s Invisibles vaguely gave her a playful yet determined vibe. It seemed that different leaders would bring out different kinds of potential in their team.

She had heard that there were three elite teams in A Country, namely Jasper’s Dark Shadow, Sean’s Invisibles, and Christian’s Black Ferrets. However, Christian’s Black Ferrets did not seem to have a good reputation.

The soldiers were dismissed, and Sean headed towards the room towards the lounge. Eli followed after him hurriedly.

She had been standing in the field with Sean for the past three hours. Her face was numb with cold, and her feet were tired from standing for too long. As soon as she reached Sean’s room, she took off her shoes and lay down on his bed.

Sean looked over at her, “It’s going to be tough during the training.”

Eli looked at Sean and remained quiet.

“We’ll be having lunch with them later. Remember to eat more,” Sean reminded her.

“What time will the training end?” Eli asked.

“I have no idea. A few hours if it goes well, a few days if it doesn’t,” Sean answered.

“A few days?” Eli was shocked and she sat up from the bed immediately, “No way. That’s too long, isn’t it? Wouldn’t we starve to death?”

“If the training takes a few days, then supplies will be given. It is unlikely that you will starve to death.”

Eli was relieved, but she was still despondent at the thought of training for a few days consecutively.

Reluctance filled her heart. If she could, she would choose to skip the training instead. It felt like an idle attempt to find a guilty pleasure. Could she really learn survival skills from this kind of training?

“We’ll start the training after having our meal and resting for an hour. However, most often than not, the soldiers would have warmed up ahead of time and start training as we speak. We’ll get together as a group and work on our strategies after having our meal later,” Sean said.

Eli felt an urge to cry, “I’m going to take a nap first. You were up so late yesterday. If I had known that this would happen, I would have gone to bed earlier instead of spending my energy.”

Sean was speechless.

“Four hours of rest is more than enough for me,” he assured her.

“Forty hours isn’t even considered enough for me. You were pressing on my legs and doing all kinds of movements. My muscles were so sore the moment I woke up earlier this morning,” Eli tried to find every excuse to escape the training session.

Sean sat on the edge of her bed, his gaze softening, “Your stamina is better than before, but it still isn’t enough. I’ll jog with you every day once we get back to the mainland.”

“You’ve always jogged when you’re back there, haven’t you?”

“Alright, you’ll be the one accompanying me for a jog. I’ll set aside one to two hours each day to teach you martial arts, self-defense, and shooting,” Sean said softly.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Eli lowered her eyes, remembering her mother’s tragic death.

She had always been the kind of person who would lose interest in things very quickly. Once she loses the drive she had in her, she would become extremely lazy. She sighed and her eyes dimmed, “My mother is unlucky to have had such a lazy, unmotivated daughter like me. I should really train myself well. I mustn’t let time wear down my fighting spirit and pain.”

“Are you sure that the person you are looking for is not part of the Invisibles?” Sean asked.

Eli nodded her head.

“Could you draw a picture of that person then? Facial recognition technology is quite advanced now. Perhaps we could find him through facial recognition,” Sean said deeply

“I’ll give it a try when I get back. Sean, do you think it’s possible that the man who had tried to kill me was one of Christian’s men? Wasn’t Christian in the same boat as you were? Maybe he was afraid that something would happen to you, so he got someone to finish me off,” Eli speculated.

“There is no reason for him to impersonate as one of the Invisibles to execute that. To him, you are dispensable, and he would not have taken such measures just to eliminate your presence.”

“What if he deliberately wanted me to hate you? Perhaps he had intentionally left me alone in this world,” Eli analyzed further.

Sean was silent, “I don’t want to speculate anything until I have proof. Otherwise, we would only play into someone else’s hands and potentially bringing trouble to ourselves. However, I promise you that I will find out who this person is and what his motivation was.”

Since Sean had assured her, Eli knew that she had nothing else to worry about. After all, Sean was a man of his word.

“I hope that my mother’s spirit will guide me in finding the murderer. Else, I’ll be incredibly miffed. If my mother hadn’t died, my father wouldn’t have died of depression in the end. It’s all my fault, and yours,” Eli sat up, her eyes slightly red.

“Yes, it’s my fault. I will spend my whole life making up for this mistake,” Sean didn’t deny it and he wrapped his arm around Eli’s shoulders, “Blame me all you want and don’t let me go unless you have gotten your revenge, alright?”

Eli looked at him stiffly. She didn’t quite understand what his words meant, “What are you talking about? You’re lying, aren’t you?”

“Of course not! I’m being honest. Stay by my side forever and do your best to torment me for the rest of your life. Stop wreaking havoc on other people’s lives,” Sean said with a smile.

Eli elbowed him in the belly and tried to push him away, “You’re the one who’s wreaking other people’s lives. You’re making me suffer by taking me to some ridiculous training. I’m a girl for God’s sake. How am I supposed to compete with all those men out there?”

Sean looked at her and smiled, “I’ll get you a present once the training is over.”

“Are you aware that you hadn’t gotten me that last present yet?”

Sean brushed her nose dotingly with his finger, “I’ll give them all to you after the training ends.”

Eli warned, “You’d better, otherwise I’ll nag you forever.”

Sean chuckled, “Ah, for some reason, I don’t feel like giving them anymore.”

Eli was speechless.

She knocked him on the head, “Don’t you dare, bro.”

Sean’s eyes darkened, “What did you call me? Do you want me to punish you more? Refer to me as your hubby.”

“Okay, bro,” Eli said with a smile.

Sean lowered his head and nibbled lightly on Eli’s lips, “I don’t have a penchant for messing… with my sister. You like messing with your brother, huh?”

“Nonsense,” Eli blushed and turned to bite his lips as well.

Sean did not avoid her attack and his lips were bitten.

He locked her upper lip with his and pinned her to the bed.

“Ugh!” Eli protested, trying to push against him.

He turned to grab her waist out of reflex, his grip tightening.

With training coming up later in the afternoon, Eli didn’t have the stamina to mess around with him. Hence, she bit his tongue without holding back at all.

A sharp pain spread through Sean’s tongue, which then eventually turned numb. He stared at her.

She noticed a hint of sadness in his eyes and felt inexplicably guilty. She then took the initiative and sucked on his lips for a moment before whispering, “I don’t have that much energy, you know that.”

“I know. It’s just a kiss. It’s not as though I’m going to do anything else,” Sean said sulkily

Eli flashed a naive smile, “I’m just worried about what I might end up doing.”

Sean did not know what to say.
