Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

“Sean, something has happened to Trenton from the Department of Education,” Yvonne spoke nervously.

“Trenton? What happened to him?” Sean said calmly as he looked at Yvonne.

Two days ago, reports were claiming that Trenton had embezzled 670 million dollars to support his two mistresses. According to the standard of procedures, Trenton would have to leave the political party and go to prison within the following week.

“Trenton was just found dead in his room. It didn’t seem like suicide as his head was decapitated. There are also 18 stabs on his face, and his eyes had been gauged out. There are even signs of him being suffocated as there was a piece of paper in his mouth. It wrote: This secret will disappear with him. His hands were tied and he was on the floor, so it was unlikely that he had written it. The problem is, it was a secret room, so no one could have entered,” Yvonne felt a little terrified as she explained the situation.

“I think we could turn to Stella for help. She is a psychologist and she is exceptionally good in criminal minds,” Eli blurted out.

Sean looked towards Eli curiously.

The next moment, Eli realized that she had been too brusque. She looked at Sean and their eyes met.

He smiled as he knew her all too well.

Eli was not one to stay angry for long. She was too soft-hearted and it was difficult for her to remain angry at Stella for such a long time.

Yvonne noticed the brief yet meaningful exchange between the two. Her fists were secretly clenched as she portrayed a smile to hide her true emotions.

She was jealous of the tacit understanding between the both of them. She hated how they could read each other’s minds. At that moment, she really wanted Sean’s love.

“Has the news been blocked?” Sean asked her.

Yvonne snapped back to her senses. She lowered her eyes and continued in a soft tone, “We’ve already blocked the media. Secretary Parker was going to inform you about this, but I was on the phone with him just now, so he asked me to relay the message to you. He is great at his work.”

“First of all, go to the Zanes and call for Lincon. I’ll call Stella. Please call Benjamin while you’re at it. He is an expert in solving cases. Yvonne, you stay home. It is too risky for us to move together. Eli, come with me,” Sean gave concise instructions.

Yvonne frowned, “Are you sure that you want to call Stella? Stella is now in the limelight. If she takes part in this, I am afraid that it would cause more public disruption.”

“She is indeed in the limelight now. Perhaps she might even be the primary suspect in Trenton’s death. That being said, she is also the least likely person to kill Trenton,” Sean said in a low voice.

Yvonne asked once more and added, “What about Mrs. Zane? She is rather stubborn and she hates Stella to the core. If Stella goes over to the scene, I am afraid that trouble may ensue.”

“Stella is a strong person and she won’t be easily bullied. Maybe this will be the start of another great scene,” Sean said. He was firm and no one could change his mind.

Yvonne remained silent. She nodded and replied, “I will stay home then. Please call me immediately if you have any other instructions.”

“Okay, Eli, put on your clothes and we shall depart,” Sean commanded.

“Okay,” Since she was going as his assistant, she put on a suit and wore a thick jacket as it might get cold outside.

Yvonne smiled and helped Eli straighten her collar.

Eli felt uneasy when Yvonne helped her. She smiled and said, “Thank you.”

“There is no need to thank me. Remember to put on a scarf before you go out. It’s cold outside,” Yvonne reminded her.

“Okay, I’ll buy some heating pads along the way. It won’t be cold once I put it on,” Eli said with a smile. She immediately pulled out a scarf and went out. She felt more at ease when she was with Sean.

Sean had also changed his clothes. He wore a black suit, a white shirt, a brown windbreaker, and a pair of black leather gloves. He was dressed with the elegance of a noble person from a royal family.

Those who didn’t know him would definitely be charmed by his handsome appearance.

Eli’s face turned slightly red. She cleared her throat and continued to walk behind him.

Sean glanced at her meaningfully.

Eli couldn’t understand what his gaze meant. She pushed him hard and said, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Why is your face so red?” Sean smirked.

Eli rolled her eyes in annoyance, “My blood circulation is at its optimum, and I am very healthy, alright? Would you like me to be as pale as a zombie?”

“Ah, you’re thinking about something that you’re not supposed to, aren’t you?” Sean teased her. It was as though he could see through her.

“Yes. I’m thinking of ways to kill you. Be careful, or I might hurt you in the middle of the night,” Eli was the best at comebacks. However, she didn’t want to say that she was blushing because of him.

Sean knew that she was joking, so he pinched her chubby face and said, “You really do have a way with your lips, huh?”

Eli instantly thought of something else. She paused and stared at Sean with a strange look in her eyes.

Sean saw the look in Eli’s eyes and knew what she was thinking. He patted her head and said, “You have to continue training your mouth. You are not good at it yet, and it hurts a little bit. I will give you a chance to practice every day, is that alright?”

Eli was reluctant to continue with the topic, “Thank you, but I don’t need it. My skills already have the power to conquer everyone.”

“What do you mean by that?” Sean asked in confusion.

Eli was not keen on continuing with the topic because she knew that Sean would look down on her.

She used to be popular with many admirers when she was still in her comfort zone. However, things seemed to have had taken a turn for her as soon as she leaped into the circle of these outstanding humans. For some reason, she felt extremely inferior and ugly compared to them.

Eli ignored Sean and walked outside while Sean happily followed her from behind.

“Hey, your minister is dead. Is it appropriate for you to be this happy?” Eli tried her best to discourage him.

Colonel Cher drove the car over and stopped in front of Sean.

“I’ll tell you more when we get on the car,” Sean said. He sat in the back seat and straightened his clothes.

Eli immediately sat next to Sean. His legs were so long that his legs had already occupied more than half of the back seats.

Eli also behaved bossily as well. She deliberately tried to push Sean aside as soon as she got into the car.

Sean wasn’t angry at all. He placed his arm around Eli’s shoulder cheerfully and touched her nose, “It seems that you can’t wait anymore.”Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Shut up and move,” Eli spoke as she scooched over to the next seat.

“I prefer to do it in a narrower space. It feels much more exciting that way, yes?” Sean said with a smile.

He had instantaneously left Eli speechless. This guy had bullied her ever since they were in school. Was being good at talking back a needed skill for a President?

“About that, what were you going to tell me once we got into the car?” Eli asked as she quickly changed the topic. But in fact, she couldn’t care less about the issue.
