Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

“There is one other thing. You mustn’t reveal the truth even though you already know about it, especially when you are not sure if you are able to counterattack. If you reveal the truth, you would only make your opponent anxious and they might use extreme methods in retaliation. Do you understand?” Stella continued.

“I understand, so even if I know that Yvonne is pretending to be good to me, it’s not good for me to expose her at that moment. I should just play along with her pretense for now, but I should be on guard against her all the time, right?” Eli asked seriously.

“Yes,” Stella looked at Sean. “Do you still want Eli to stay with you now? There is a person beside you who is a ticking timebomb for Eli.”

“You’re right. I’ll be cautious. Because she’s a ticking timebomb, I have to keep Eli by my side. Yvonne would definitely lose everything if she decides to retaliate and bring harm to Eli. I know her well. She cherishes her life. If she’s really the mastermind, she wouldn’t reveal herself that easily. Don’t worry,” Sean was determined to keep Eli by his side.

At least, he would give his life to protect her. Therefore, he believed that there was no one better to protect her than him.

Stella knew that Sean was very determined, hence, she didn’t say anything more.

She glanced at the time on the computer and asked Sean, “Don’t you have a meeting at 2 p. m.? It’s already 1 p. m. My place is not near the meeting venue.”

“Yes. Do take care of yourself. If you need anything, please feel free to let me know,” Sean said in a low voice.

“Speaking of which, I do have something that I need your help with.”

“Go ahead.”

“One of my subordinates was injured, and half of her face was completely destroyed. She is still a young girl without a boyfriend. Looks are very important to a young girl. Don’t you have a very renowned cosmetic surgeon, the one who helped me with my surgery? Could you please ask him to take a look at her?” Stella’s eyes dimmed. Her heart sank when she thought of Lynette.

Lynette had gotten injured due to her negligence. In the future, she had to be more cautious.

“Her condition differs from yours. She has a skin injury. I’m afraid that it’ll take more than two years to get her skin completely healed,” Sean replied.

“She is willing to wait for two years. I’ll have to trouble you then,” Stella said and nodded politely.

“I’ll make a call after the meeting. I’ll take Eli away first. She’s my assistant, and she needs to attend the meeting with me,” Sean said. He tightened his arm around Eli, as though he was swearing ownership over her.

Eli winced in pain and punched him on the shoulder, “I’m going to get suffocated to death.”

“Alright,” Sean said dotingly.

Stella’s eyes softened slightly. Although it was dangerous for Eli to be around Sean, it seemed that he really loved her a lot.

If someone were to advise her to leave Jasper because she would be in danger, she definitely would stay by his side stubbornly too.

“Eli, remember, you must not say anything to Yvonne. She is a very smart person. She will be able to sense anything out of the ordinary. Besides, this is just my suspicion. It’s still uncertain whether she is the one,” Stella deliberately reminded Eli again.

Eli made an OK gesture and said, “I’ll call you, and you should take care of yourself.”

Stella nodded and sent them out.

Anthony made his way downstairs and reported, “Mrs. Milton, I’ve found 13 places with the voice recorder apart from ours. What should we do?”

“Clean them all up. I’ve also confirmed that there was no problem with my surveillance camera. Combine the recordings and make three copies of them. Then, send each copy to Zoah, Quinn, and Christian,” Stella ordered.

“Do you want to let them know that you are being monitored?” Anthony did not understand Stella’s purpose.

Stella looked at Anthony. “Wasn’t there a part in the meeting where Christian started questioning me? Post the recording online and make it viral. Remember, use a foreign server.”

Upon realizing what was going on, Anthony couldn’t help but admire Stella a little more.

“If we post this recording, Christian will never be able to be the next President.

After all, he did frame the minister several times so that he could become the next President. If the recording was made viral, that wish of his would become even more unlikely to attain. It would probably be difficult for him to even return to his previous position as the Finance Minister.

Moreover, he is a narrow-minded person. He will suspect that it was Quinn or Zoah who did it instead of you. After all, it is impossible for you to have set up surveillance devices in your own house. Let them fight among themselves! That’s great,” Anthony said excitedly.

“No, Christian will also suspect me of doing this. With his impulsiveness, he will definitely go to Sean to put pressure on me,” Stella guessed.

“What should we do then?” Anthony was worried again.

“Sean is not easy to deal with. He will put the blame on Quinn because he needs to suppress his force urgently,” Stella said.

Anthony clapped his hands together and said, “I see.”

Stella smiled slightly. “Go to the meeting. You must find someone to take good care of Lynette. Also, tell her that she doesn’t have to worry. Her face will recover in at most two years. That’s my promise.”

“Yes, I’ll send someone else to protect you. You’ll need a sweet-hearted woman to serve you.”

“That won’t be necessary. I heard from Elvis today that Lynette has passed the critical stage and has woken up earlier in the morning. After she leaves the hospital, I’ll take her to the manor and take care of her. After all, she got hurt in order to protect me, and I couldn’t possibly abandon her,” Stella said firmly.

“But, you need someone to take care of you. Don’t worry, the people I send this time will be trustworthy.”

“I’ll let Elvis move into the manor. He will be more than enough. Thank you,” Stella patted Anthony’s shoulder. “I’m a little sleepy. I’ll rest for a while.”

“Alright, let’s keep in touch.”

Stella lay down on the bed after Anthony left. She was exhausted.

She did not sleep well the night before, and it was another day of fighting a battle of wits and courage today. She must have a good rest so that she could have enough energy to deal with everything that would happen next.

At the very least, Eli had forgiven her.

She smiled, the heavy stone in her heart seemed significantly lighter, but there was another heavy stone that was pressing on her.

She had already gotten Eli’s mother killed, so she must protect Eli well.

Judging from Sean’s attitude, he would definitely make Eli his wife in the future. However, she knew Eli too well. She was still the loud and carefree person she was before.

It would have been fine if she was just a commoner living her own normal life. However, if she becomes the wife of the President one day, every move of hers would reflect the values of the royal family and country.

She was really worried that Eli couldn’t get used to it.

She must teach her everything she could as soon as possible so that she would not worry when she leaves…

Stella soon fell asleep in a daze.

She dreamed of Jasper again. There was a sea surrounding him, and he was sitting alone on a small rock in the middle of the sea.

She was afraid that he would fall into the sea, but in her mind, she told herself that it was a dream.

However, even in her dreams, she did not want to see Jasper fall.

Jasper stood on the rock and looked at her deeply, as though he had something to say to her. However, he didn’t say anything and just stared at her.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

She was afraid of waking up from the dream. She was afraid that she could not see him when she woke up.

A big wave rushed towards him, and she found that Jasper was gone. She jumped into the sea without even a second thought. She started drowning and her eyes immediately shot wide open.

It was winter, but her forehead and nose were sweaty. A shadow passed by the window, and she screamed.
