Pampered Like A Princess

Chapter 132



Nelissa looked at her phone. When she heard Sophie’s voice, she lowered her eyes and put her phone back into her bag. She wanted to talk to Edward for a while, but it was not convenient for her to talk to him.

She sighed in her heart and had a headache about what would happen next. She should not have given in to Penelope.

At the red light in front of them, Zayden stopped the car steadily. He turned the steering wheel with his gentle hand and looked at Nelissa. Han Penelope quietly clenched her fists with a sad heart.

“Whose phone number is it?” She and Zayden asked Nelissa at the same time.

Penelope’s heart skipped a beat.

“Friend.” Nelissa couldn’t be ignored. After all, Penelope was also asking. She shouldn’t vent her anger on her conflict with Zayden.

“Is it that Jolene?” Han Penelope smiled and explained to Zayden. She had met Jolene once and knew that she and Nelissa were just in time.

“Yes.” Nelissa made a mistake and did not deny it.

The red light turned green, and Zayden started the luxury car. The gloomy corners of his eyes were slightly painful. It was not a friend’s phone call, so he was so careful to talk about it only when their relationship was unusual. It was like the time when he was secretly dating Nelissa and he deliberately avoided suspicion.

Zayden held the steering wheel tightly and felt very uneasy. He had once believed that he and Nelissa were destined to be a couple. She only loved and loved him, but now she was uncertain. After five years of separation, Nelissa had changed and had given birth to children for other men.

Who was she in her heart now? Was there a place for him?

Zayden couldn’t accept that the girl he had silently protected for six years would fall in love with another man!

On the rainy night, in the Hales family’s villa.

Two luxury cars stopped at the gate of the villa. A few servants held umbrellas to meet the relatives of Norah and Norah. The villa was very luxurious, with a three-story private garden and swimming pool.

The servant carried a tray and handed over a clean hot towel to wipe her hands.

After wiping his hands, they took their seats.

It was the first time that Nelissa saw Edward’s father, Donald. He was a very dignified elder. He was not young, but he would not look old. He was much stronger than he was in the magazine. She did not expect that he would appear in the Hales family with such an ambiguous identity. It was embarrassing.

Norah sat down next to Donald, acting like a hostess. “Mr. Hales, Zayden is the son of my nephew and my sister. I want you to meet him several times, but you are all busy. You just happened to meet him today, so I asked them to come over and help you.”

“Okay.” Donald calmly looked at Zayden and Nelissa beside Zayden. He didn’t ask her who she was, but only regarded her as Zayden’s sister or a female secretary.

Donald would not pay much attention to an unknown young woman. He had always thought highly of men and women. On the contrary, he liked Zayden. Donald had heard of him before. Among the rising talents, he was the fastest to get the position. He had known that he was Norah’s nephew. Today, he found that he was indeed a talented man.

However, Edward was very good at taking his son’s side. Except for his personality, which was spoiled by his father, he was very proud of the other places. Edward had already taken charge of his own business at Zayden’s age and had a high status.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

The tea master made tea to entertain the guests, and Zayden and Edward’s father chatted very well.

Nelissa picked up a cup of tea and held it in her hand. She didn’t say anything and didn’t know what to say. The topic she was talking about had nothing to do with her social status. She had nothing to say and was just in a daze. She was best at being in a daze. She just hoped to finish her dinner soon and leave.

Penelope was sitting beside her, playing with her phone. She could tell that she was indeed in this house and rarely spoke.

Nelissa sighed and blew the hot tea. She blinked her eyelashes and took a sip. She felt that every minute and second passed slowly.

“Master, Young Master is back.” A servant came in and said.

Nelissa almost burned the hot tea, and her lips were rosy. “Which young master? Edward’s big brother?”

Penelope immediately put away her phone and became energetic. “I’m going to get a hot towel for my uncle.”

In this family, Han Penelope had the best relationship with her little uncle, Edward. Usually, she would come back for a meal every week. When her little uncle was not there, she had nothing to say about it alone. When her little uncle was there, she felt that she had an ally on the same side as her and had more confidence!

When Nelissa heard Han Penelope’s words, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She was stunned.

… How many uncles does Penelope have?

Her heartbeat sped up as she slowly raised her head. She saw Edward standing in front of her, tall and handsome. His slender arms were wrapped around the jacket of his suit, and his white shirt and well-cut trousers made him look tall and elegant. His eyes were cold and sharp as he looked at her and Zayden, and he seemed to say, “Hmm?”.

Nelissa was so scared that her heart was trembling. Her eyes seemed to be attracted by Edward’s powerful magnetic field. When she saw Sophie behind him, she barely looked away, and her cheeks under her long hair were hot.

Edward stared at them like a torch, and Zayden glanced at him without a trace. He was not sure whether Edward was looking at Nelissa or hostile to him. Although he and Edward had the intention to cooperate recently, the two sides’ opinions had not reached an agreement. Edward’s business was the same as the rumors in the outside world. He was extremely powerful and the nature of a tyrant. The interests of his side had been stripped away, and now they were at odds with Edward.

In addition, Edward and Nelissa had an affair before. Although Han Penelope later clarified it, he could not forget it.

Nelissa didn’t know what the two men were thinking, so she was embarrassed.

“Uncle, let me introduce you…” Han Penelope came over with a clean hot towel, thinking that Edward and Zayden were strangers.

“I know.” Edward interrupted her, handed the coat on the back of his hand to the servant beside him, and said emotionlessly, “He is Norah’s nephew.”

Norah couldn’t stand it anymore. Edward didn’t take her seriously at all. He didn’t call her mom, but called her by her name, looking down on her. However, he had already known that Zayden was her nephew and asked someone to investigate her?

Norah was so angry that she didn’t dare to say anything.

“Old Master, are we having dinner together?” asked the auntie.

Dinner had been waiting for Edward to come back. Now that he was back, Donald made way for him.

They took their seats at the dining table.

Sophie sat down beside Edward on her own accord, her eyes fixed on Nelissa. She didn’t know why Nelissa had come here. She never thought that Zayden was Norah’s nephew. She had schemed against Nelissa before, and she was afraid that she would be exposed when she ate later, so she was very vigilant against Nelissa.

They ate with their own thoughts.

Nelissa sat next to Zayden. After all, she was a guest, so she couldn’t sit in the host’s seat. It was very strange.

As she ate the white rice in her bowl, Nelissa’s appetite was very low. She felt that there was always someone staring at her. She did not dare to look up to see if it was Edward.

Zayden took out the fish bones and placed them piece by piece on an exquisite small plate. He exchanged with Nelissa and specially made them for her. She liked eating fish. In the past, when she was with him, he would first take good care of her and then eat. It had already become a habit.

Nelissa bit her lip and couldn’t eat anymore. She felt that the look in her eyes was even more piercing. She didn’t know whether it was Edward or Han Penelope. She didn’t feel it before, but now she couldn’t be as intimate with Zayden as before. He took care of her like this, and she didn’t know what to do.

Once upon a time, she lived in a big house with very few people. Her mother was very busy at work, and she even went out early and returned late. Only she and Zayden were at the dining table. He took care of her and helped her to eat. He also cooked fish bones. He cooked a few times to let her eat. He was very good to her, once very good to her.

She knew that she couldn’t deny all the sincerity Zayden had given her. At least at that moment, she believed that he was sincere.

But now that she had grown up, things were different. She no longer relied on him, and she was no longer the little girl who needed to be taken care of everywhere in the past.

Nelissa fiddled with the fish on the small plate with her chopsticks. She really had no appetite and felt that the rice in the bowl was not delicious, so she couldn’t eat anymore.

“Does it taste bad?” Edward suddenly asked. His voice was low and magnetic, and his deep eyes were looking at her unscrupulously.

Nelissa didn’t say anything. Her beautiful eyelashes blinked at him, but she didn’t dare to look at him.

“She likes steamed ones,” Zayden replied. Although he had picked out the chillis just now, they weren’t exactly what Nelissa liked to eat.

“Take this away.” Edward ordered the servants, ignoring the other people present who only cared about Nelissa. “Get the kitchen to steam one.”

“…” Nelissa was a little embarrassed. “How dare he!”

It didn’t take long to steam a fish. Soon, the servants placed the fresh fish directly in front of Nelissa, which was convenient for her to eat and take care of her.

The boiled fish that had just been removed was Norah’s favorite. On the contrary, Sophie and Penelope couldn’t figure it out. “Does Edward care too much about Nelissa, or does he just dislike Norah?”

Nelissa picked up the fish and ate it. The moment she looked up, her heart skipped a beat when she met Edward’s dark and charming eyes.

Zayden was lost in thought.

When the meal was almost over, Nelissa put down her bowl and chopsticks. She really couldn’t eat anymore. She picked up a napkin to wipe her mouth, took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Zayden at the dining table.

[Take me away, I’m not feeling well.]

Zayden saw Nelissa’s text message. Considering that Nelissa was not in good condition today, he said goodbye to Norah and Donald. “The company sent me a text message. I have something urgent to deal with, so I have to go back first.”

After that, Zayden stood up. Naturally, Nelissa followed him. She didn’t dare to stay any longer. She was going to be scared to death by Edward’s increasingly arrogant eyes!

“I’ll send you out.” Han Penelope followed them.

It was rare for Donald to see that Penelope was such a nice guest. After she came back, he asked her, “Do you know her?”

Han Penelope explained to him, “The person who came with Zayden is Nelissa, my high school classmate.”

Donald asked, “Is she Zayden’s sister?”

Penelope wanted to say that they were lovers, but she couldn’t say it out loud.

Norah said, “My sister only has one son and no daughter. She may be my sister’s adopted daughter. She and Zayden were childhood sweethearts.”

Norah’s sister was very kind. In Norah’s eyes, this kindness was very stupid and over-confident. She was so poor that she couldn’t afford to live, but she still had to be kind. Her sister would definitely do such a thing to adopt a child that others didn’t want!
