Pampered Like A Princess

Nelissa paid attention to whether the vehicles on the road were loaded or not and said to Jolene, “I’ve already left the restaurant. You don’t have to wait for me. You can go back to the company after eating. Also, I need to ask for leave in the afternoon. There’s something I need to do. You don’t have to worry about me.”

Jolene had already called for a waiter to bury the bill. He wasn’t worried about Nelissa. “What’s the matter? If you want to go to the hospital, I can drive you there.”

“There’s no need to send me off…” Nelissa raised her hand to stop him when she saw the arrival of a car. She opened the door and got into the car, telling Jolene, “I’ve already reached the car. Go and do your work. I’ll be back after I’m done.”

“Alright. I’ll help you pick up Noelle for Nathan after work. You don’t have to worry.” Jolene thought that since Nelissa’s mother was in critical condition, there was nothing she could do to help her. Furthermore, there was Alex into Alex into her in the hospital.

“Thank you, Jolene.” Nelissa was sincere. Jolene had been taking care of her and Noelle for Nathan.

“Stupid words.” Jolene made Nelissa feel less numb.

The call ended.

The driver asked where Nelissa was going and had already gone a distance.

Nelissa said, “Go to Mount Hales.”

He took her to the villa over there once. She knew the road. It was far away from the downtown area. It would take more than an hour to drive there. She hoped that there would be no traffic jam on the road. She wanted to see him as soon as possible.

She turned to look out of the car window. The moving street view blurred in front of her eyes. The reflection of the glass reflected her red eyes. She touched it with her fingertips and sighed unconsciously.

It was a 70-minute drive to Mount Hales’s villa. Nelissa paid 148 yuan for the car and got out of the car. There was a private security guard at the gate of the villa who had been keeping an eye on public security for a long time. After all, the male owner rarely came here. He would only come here for a rest and a holiday. It was usually empty.

Nelissa walked over and thought about whether she should call Andrew first. “I’m here for Edward.”

“Please come in.” These security guards were hired for a long time. They still remembered Nelissa. The last time Young Mr. Hales personally brought her here, the two of them were still holding hands. Their relationship was very close. It might be Young Mr. Hales’s secret lover.

Nelissa didn’t think too much about it. She just wanted to go in. The outer garden was very big, and they arrived at the villa after passing through the garden.

Standing in front of the door, Nelissa’s heart beat faster and faster. She reached out and gently pressed the doorbell. Soon, someone opened the door for her. It was Andrew.

“Miss Nelissa, you’re here.” Andrew quickly got up and let Nelissa in. He had been so busy all morning that he breathed a sigh of relief at the arrival of Nelissa.

The luxurious living room was very messy, and things were thrown one after another. Andrew was embarrassed and said, “The doctor has just left. There are a lot of people who came here before, so they didn’t have time to pack up. Are you thirsty? I’ll get you a glass of water.”

The kitchen had enough mineral water to drink, and there was mineral water in the refrigerator. Andrew could not cook boiled water, so he was in a flurry for a while.

“No, I’m not thirsty.” Nelissa stopped Andrew. Soon, she noticed a white piano in front of the French window. It was shining with sunlight, crystal clear and spotless.

As she approached, she gently touched the piano with her fair fingers. She could not help looking down and her eyes were red.

Edward had said that he wanted to buy her a piano. She had clearly rejected him and had made him angry because of it. His stubborn temper had never landed on her. She knew that with his character, if he really lost his temper, she would not just cry out of fear. He was suppressing his nature for her and did not want to hurt her.

Perhaps very few people knew that Edward was actually a very gentle man. Although he liked to do bad things to her, he would always flatter her when she cried many times. He was very good to her, very good to her. All the bad personalities formed Edward, and women were easily fascinated by him.

Sometimes, she felt that it was a pity. If Edward didn’t like her, he would still be that arrogant man if it were her woman. If he liked her, he could only submit to her. Her pride was no less than his. He spoiled her so that she could climb over his head and be presumptuous.

Unconsciously, she was spoiled by Edward so much that she was not so afraid of him anymore…

Nelissa came back to her senses and asked Andrew, “Which floor is Edward’s room on? I’m going to see him.”

“On the second floor, the bedroom in the middle is.” Andrew pointed in the direction and was cleaning up the living room. “Young Mr. Hales is still sleeping, and his fever hasn’t subsided. The doctor said that his recent rest quality is too poor, and his body is extremely tired. That’s why all of it broke out this time. He should be sleeping for a long time.”

Originally, he would have had a fever and taken a medicine to relieve the fever. However, according to Young Mr. Hales’s condition, he should have fallen ill since last night. When he arrived in the morning, Young Mr. Hales was already unconscious and had a high fever. Therefore, he immediately arranged for a doctor to come over and give him an injection and lost the liquid. At present, Young Mr. Hales’s condition was relatively stable. After waking up, he needed to take medicine to see if he could relieve the fever. If not, he needed a doctor to come over.

Nelissa’s heart ached. She went up the stairs, went up to the second floor, and pushed open the door of the middle bedroom. Edward was lying on the big bed. The handsome man’s face was weak and his face was pale. His thin lips were red, covered with a thin quilt, and his forehead was sweating. He was not feeling well.

Nelissa walked over, sat beside his bed, and looked at him. It was the first time that she had seen such a fragile side of him. She reached out to touch his forehead. It was hot, his face was hot, and his lips were hot. He was wearing a thin shirt and trousers under the thin quilt, which were also wet with sweat.

She suddenly felt sad. She was used to seeing Edward’s strong and overbearing side. He was a noble young master. Just with this leather bag and his prominent family background, he was worthy of the title of nobility. When had he ever been embarrassed and fooled by others?Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Nelissa couldn’t get rid of the blame and blamed herself.

She went to the bathroom and picked up a clean hot towel to wipe Edward’s face, chest, and hands.

She looked at her own small hand holding the man’s hand. It was wide and slender, and her palm was much bigger than hers. Usually, she held her hand with great strength, and then she broke away from her fingers in a domineering manner. She did not stop until he held her hand clearly. Now that he was ill, his hand became powerless.

When Andrew came in, he saw Nelissa holding Edward’s hands with both hands and crying secretly.

She quickly wiped away her tears, but her red eyes could not deceive people. Andrew was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he understood why Young Mr. Hales liked her so much and only loved her.

Nelissa should be sincere to Young Mr. Hales, not for money.

Although Sophie liked Young Mr. Hales, she spent most of her time on Young Mr. Hales’s money and identity. No matter how long she acted, she would always see people’s hearts. He had never seen Sophie shed a tear for Young Mr. Hales because of her love for Young Mr. Hales. When Sophie didn’t see Anna, she immediately made a deal with Young Mr. Hales and continued to get married to him.

The more superior a man was, the more successful he would be. In fact, he would bear all kinds of pressure. He would never love a woman like Sophie. To put it nicely, she was a smart woman, but she was a scheming woman. Andrew thought that it was not surprising that Edward liked Nelissa.

Others didn’t know, but he knew that Nelissa’s appearance was in line with Young Mr. Hales’s taste. Besides, he was in favor of Young Mr. Hales, so he didn’t covet money or play any tricks. Young Mr. Hales came to take care of her as soon as he got ill, which was not a waste of Young Mr. Hales’s love for her.

“These are the medicine prescribed by the doctor. I’ll put them on the table. When Mr. Hales wakes up, remember to remind him to take them,” Andrew put the medicine on the bedside and said.

“Well… Okay.” Nelissa blinked her moist eyes and replied.

“He has been in a bad mood these days. Maybe it’s because of him,” Andrew suddenly said. As Edward’s personal assistant, he knew his boss’s mood best.

But the reason why Edward was in a bad mood was whether it was Donald’s chairman, or Nelissa. Andrew was not sure.

Nelissa sighed in her heart and put her little hand in Edward’s palm. She felt warm and wanted to apologize to him.

Andrew went downstairs to clean up the living room and left Edward to Nelissa.

After a long time, Edward was still asleep. Nelissa didn’t waste any time. She took out a rubber band from her bag and tied her hair into a black ponytail. It was neat and convenient for her to do things.

She went downstairs and asked Andrew, who was still tidying up, “Is there anything to eat in the refrigerator? I want to cook porridge for Edward.”

Andrew raised his arm and wiped his sweat with his shirt. He felt that doing housework was much more difficult than doing things in the company, so he was not used to it. He replied to Nelissa, “In fact, there are many high-end food stores here, and they are responsible for delivering takeout. We can order takeout directly. We can eat whatever porridge we want, and it tastes good.”

Nelissa shook her head. “No, it’s not about the taste, it’s about nutrition. There are too many different kinds of porridge outside. Even if Edward is not sick, he doesn’t like it. Besides, he is still sick.”

Ignoring Andrew, Nelissa went straight to the kitchen. She opened the refrigerator and saw that there was nothing in it. There was not a single ingredient. There was quite a lot of beer and mineral water, and she was actually pouring cold water for Edward!

Nelissa was speechless. The people around Edward couldn’t take care of themselves, but she didn’t have the right to talk about people. She wasn’t as good as she used to be.

“I’ll clean up here. Can you drive me back to buy some ingredients? When I got on the bus, I saw a supermarket at the intersection. Go there and help me buy the ingredients I want, okay?” Although she was asking, Nelissa did not give Andrew a chance to refuse. She had already used a pen to write down the ingredients and things she needed.

After she finished writing, she tore a piece of paper and handed it to Andrew. She smiled slightly and said, “Thank you.”

Andrew was slightly stunned. Nelissa was actually quite smart.

After Andrew left, Nelissa began to clean up the house. Perhaps because she saw Edward, she was much more motivated and did not live a muddle-headed life like she did in the past few days. She did not know whether this was the power of love or her psychological effect. But when she saw Edward, she seemed to calm down a lot.

Maybe this was the sense of belonging.

Men needed gentleness, and women needed a harbor that gave them a sense of security.

After tidying up the room, Nelissa washed her hands and went to touch the piano. Her slender white fingers played a few sounds on the piano key to test her voice. Nelissa didn’t dare to play the piano because she was afraid that it would disturb Edward upstairs. But the sound of this piano was very good, even better than the one she used to play at home.

“It’s expensive, isn’t it?”
