Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Sean came up to Team 1’s Commander and gave him his hat in return for Eli’s. He also gave them two flags and patted him on the shoulder.

The Commander raised his head in respect and saluted Sean.

He didn’t even know when the President had gotten the flag, nor how he had managed to retrieve it amidst the chaos.

Sean looked dignified and refined as a bright smile was formed on his face. He commanded Aldred with confidence and arrogance, “Send an airplane over to 16’27.”

“Understood,” Aldred replied.

Sean looked at the masked mercenary lying on the ground and ordered, “Team 27, carry your injured colleagues on your backs and follow me. The rest of you should stay and bury the bodies, then gather at the base.”

“Roger that,” all members saluted in unison.

Sean marched towards the front.

Eli immediately followed him and asked in confusion, “Why are we stopping the training all of a sudden?”

“We have already gotten the present. Therefore, there’s no need for you to work so hard anymore,” Sean replied.

“What present?” Eli asked in confusion.

“I’ve found the person who killed your mother,” Sean smiled as he spoke with a low voice.

Eli opened her mouth in shock. “Really? Who was it? Was it someone from Invisibles?”

“Kind of,” Sean replied solemnly, “I need some time to think this through. However, I will be sure to give you an explanation. This is something that I had owed you.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Eli glanced at Sean and felt a warm sensation in her heart.

She followed Sean silently and finally understood why he had insisted on her participation in the training.

His motive was to allow others to attempt to assassinate her. He could only catch them when they took action.

He was deliberately giving them a chance to take action when he said that he was going to retrieve some supplies. However, he had already set up a trap in advance.

The present that he had given her was the thing that she desired the most, the opportunity to avenge her mother.

It seemed that he had really kept his word and truly had the intentions of helping her in her quest for revenge. It truly seemed like she had a spot in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have spent so much effort in dispatching all of his Invisibles.

She was, however, not demanding in finding her partner; She only wanted to find an ordinary man. He did not need to be too handsome, nor did he need to have a good figure. All he needed was a stable job and a diligent attitude when working. They would eventually have a pair of lovely children and live on with their ordinary lives.

To her, Sean seemed to be the most perfect person in the whole world apart from his temper.

He was so handsome and noble as though he had been brought up by the royals. He had a good physique and he was knowledgeable with resourceful intelligence. Apart from standing at the peak of power, he also possessed nimble skills and critical thinking too. He was also rich and had a public listed company of his own.

Their son had his genes and he had already revealed his intelligence at a young age. In order to ensure the continuity of the following generation, having another child with him didn’t seem to be a bad idea at all.

Sean stopped walking as soon as he realized that Eli had lowered her head, seemingly deep in thought.

Eli hadn’t been paying attention and she bumped into him accidentally. She jumped out of the way instantly and shouted, “Did you do that on purpose?”

“Watch where you’re going,” Sean reminded her.

“I was just thinking about something,” Eli explained.

“Oh, what is it? Tell me about it,” Sean stood beside her and asked curiously.

She would definitely not tell him her true thoughts.

“I would’ve already been dead if it weren’t for Stella’s troops. I’m so confused now. Should I forgive her?” Eli lowered her eyes as she spoke.

Sean wanted to hold her hands at that moment, but there were Invisibles who were following behind them. Some of them still seemed distrustful of him. He held back and said in a low voice, “You have to ask yourself then. Had Stella been in this situation today, what would you do?”

She would’ve definitely helped her if Stella was in trouble. After all, they used to be best friends. However, her heart was still in turmoil even though she was touched by Stella’s actions.

Back then, Stella had sacrificed her love for her as well.

Eli’s eyes turned red as she pondered upon that thought. “I want to forgive her, but I don’t know if we could revert to how we were when we used to talk about everything. I guess I’ll just take it one step at a time.”

“Okay, I will support your decision no matter what it is. Let’s head to the rest station first.”

The rest station that Sean had mentioned was at 16’27. There was a house in the middle of the large field.

The plane had already arrived when they reached the rest station.

The guards tied up the masked mercenaries and moved them onto the plane.

Sean boarded the plane and tried to help Eli up.

However, Eli climbed onto the plane with her own bare hands.

Sean settled on the innermost seat while Eli sat beside him. He stared at the unconscious masked mercenary who had been tied up. Perhaps he had been too hungry, or perhaps he was too distracted. He had stopped thinking about food.

“There’s no need to return to the base. Let’s fly back immediately,” Sean ordered. His fingers rhythmically tapping on his legs as he looked at the mercenary solemnly.

The small plane took off with its engine roaring loudly.

Eli hadn’t slept well the night before. She fell asleep soon after as she leaned against the wall of the plane.

She was already in a warm bed when she woke up. She immediately got up but she realized that Sean wasn’t by her side. She went to the bathroom to take a bath and got dressed in a fresh set of clothes.

Yvonne was at home. She smiled at Eli and said, “Thank you for your hard work throughout this training exercise. You wouldn’t wake up no matter how hard we tried. You must be hungry. I’ll ask the chefs to prepare some snacks for you.”

“Okay, but what time is it? The more I sleep, the sleepier I get. I’ll eventually be too lazy to even crawl out of bed,” Eli asked while she scratched her head in embarrassment.

“It’s 2 p. m. You should at least grab a bite first,” Yvonne said gently. “Get the chefs to prepare her meal,” she instructed ‘Natasha’, who was standing beside her.

“Where’s Sean?” Eli asked. She looked around but she saw no sign of him.

“He should be at work now. He would normally return by 7 p. m. He had caught two mercenaries this time around. I heard that they were going to assassinate you. Are you alright?” Yvonne asked with concern.

Eli shook her head in disagreement, “I’m fine, but Jack is injured. I haven’t asked Sean about his condition.”

“Don’t worry. Just have something to bite first. You could ask Sean about it once he returns. Just let me know if you need anything else. I’ll be on the third floor,” Yvonne said with a smile. She then turned around and walked towards the third floor. As soon as she turned around, a trace of gloom and coldness flashed through her eyes.

She started arranging flowers in her room but she seemed to be dissatisfied with her work. She removed all the flowers and knocked them hard on the table. The petals were scattered all over the table. She heaved a deep breath and coldly looked up. She cooled herself down and threw the flowers into the trash can. Then, she used a broom to sweep away the petals and threw them into the trash can before knotting it for disposal.

‘Natasha’ entered and saw that she was changing the garbage bag. She walked over worriedly and asked, “You were the one behind the assassination, weren’t you? You’ve lost your cool.”
