Pampered Like A Princess

Chapter 249



Sophie was not in Haleston City at the moment. The person who drove her car was definitely not her.

Edward asked the security guard who was on duty yesterday. After asking, he learned that this white BMW had been here for several days in a row, and its time was almost fixed every day. Because before, Sophie had driven to Edward’s villa several times, and she thought it was an acquaintance, so the security guard did not pay much attention to it. He only knew that the driver was a woman, and his appearance was not clear.

According to the surveillance video of that day, after the white BMW drove into the villa area, it was parked on the opposite side of Edward’s villa. It was not an eye-catching position. The person in the car did not get out of the car and did not show up.

It was not until 23 minutes later that Nelissa appeared in the video that the person in the car finally made a move. Yi Fan opened the door and got out of the car. At this time, Yi Fan pressed the pause button and analyzed, “The other party saw Nelissa coming out of your house and got out of the car. She has been staying in the car for such a long time. If it’s just asking for directions, it’s too strange.” No matter how he looked at it, it was not simply asking for directions.

“She might be squatting in front of you or the people in your house.”

Edward stared at the video and said, “Continue.”

The video continued to play. A woman got out of the BMW, and her target was Nelissa. She had her back to the camera, so she couldn’t see the face in front of her. But as Nelissa said, the woman was slim. As for whether she was middle-aged or not, it could not be judged by her back.

Edward’s eyes were extremely sharp. He said calmly, “Chen Li.”

Yifan turned to look at him. “Do you know him?”

Edward didn’t say anything. He pursed his thin lips and kept staring at the video. After the woman and Nelissa chatted for a while, Nelissa left. The woman stayed in the same place for a while before turning back to the car. The moment the woman turned around, even if she wore a pair of sunglasses, Edward still recognized her.

“She is Sophie’s mother.”

A few words suddenly popped up in Yifan’s mind, “Love and hatred”. However, it was impossible to prove anything with just a harmless video. The conversation between Chen Li and Nelissa was just a way out. Even if the previous behavior was weird, it could not be regarded as evidence.

When the police handled a case, they needed solid evidence, not imagination.

Yifan asked Edward, “Did you break up with Sophie peacefully? Where is she now? Does she know that her mother is peeping at you?”

Edward already knew what was going on in his heart. “Find someone to follow Chen Li. Be careful not to let her find out.” The more he said, the deeper his voice became. “She will definitely not be able to hold back during this period of time. There will be movements. Remember to take photos that are beneficial to her.”

Yifan asked, “What do you want to do? So, do you suspect that it was Chen Li who ordered the car accident yesterday?”

With a clang, Edward pressed the lighter and lit a cigarette for himself. Under the light green smoke, he gently spat out his thin lips. “It’s not her. She doesn’t dare to kill anyone, but she wants to hurt Nelissa.”

Chen Li was a person who was afraid of death and loved vanity. If Chen Li had been so cruel, she would not have been Ryan’s second daughter-in-law for so many years. She could not even get a legal wife. However, she had always been suppressed by Ryan’s ex-wife, Megan. This woman was a little smart and scheming. A woman’s twisted mind was not strong enough.

But if Sophie wasn’t his daughter, Chen Li’s ambition wouldn’t be small.

After getting the video and some registration records, Edward and Yifan drove away. On the way back to the hospital, Edward shook a can of beer and said leisurely, “Stop when passing by the mall.”

Yifan drove and asked, “What are you doing?”

Edward crossed his arms and answered with his eyes closed, “To buy a new cell phone for my wife.” Nelissa’s cell phone was sacrificed at the scene of yesterday’s car accident.

Yi Fan nodded and thought, “I really didn’t know that Edward was a beloved wife in the past.” He couldn’t help but ask Edward halfway, “Dude, did you already have a suspect in your heart in yesterday’s car accident?”

Edward didn’t reply. His eyes were closed and his eyelashes were thick, as if he was asleep.

Yifan did not ask any more questions. The police’s principle of handling cases was to investigate clues by themselves. When they arrived at a big shopping mall, as soon as he stopped the car, Edward opened her eyes. When she woke up, her eyes seemed to be clear, but they were not completely clear. It was hard to tell whether she had fallen asleep or not.

A few seconds later, Edward opened the door and got out of the car with a can of unfinished beer in his hand. He threw it into the trash can on the street along the way, and then walked into the mall. He bought a pink mobile phone in an NPC store, which was suitable for daily use. The same color he had bought for Nelissa last time.

He directly swiped his card to pay.

“Young Mr. Hales?” Lin Chengcheng was also looking at his phone. She saw Edward just now and saw him buying a pink mobile phone for a woman? When she approached him, Edward glanced at him, nodded slightly, and took the packed mobile phone.

Lin Chengcheng stood beside him with a smile. The handsome man and the beautiful woman were very compatible. Seeing that the two of them knew each other, the waiter began to sell the expensive mobile phone to Lin Chengcheng. Lin Cheng looked at the mobile phone in his hand and asked Edward jokingly, “What a coincidence. You are also buying the mobile phone. Who are you giving it to? Do you have a copy of it for me?”

Edward’s arched brows twitched slightly and he replied straightforwardly, “I’ll wrap it up for her.”

Lin Cheng smiled and didn’t refuse. He said with a slight smile, “Do you always coax girls like this? Each of you has a mobile phone. If you meet a beautiful girl with a mobile phone on the street in the future, you may be my rival in love.”

Edward only said, “It’s just a gift for friends.”

For a moment, Lin Cheng could not tell if this friend was talking about her or if the phone in his hand was for another friend.

Most of the mature men were cunning, especially the superiors who were very excellent in the domain, and their minds were even more unfathomable. Edward was definitely not a man who could be easily seen through. He was very dangerous and shrewd, but the more he was like this, the more fatal his personal charm would be.

Lin Chengcheng wanted to conquer Edward, such a powerful man. He wanted him to bow to him and fall in love with her completely.

Both phones were paid with credit cards.

Lin Cheng and Edward left together. His eyes were fixed on him. He didn’t wear a formal suit today. His simple white T-shirt and black trousers still set off his tall and straight skeleton. He was refreshing and handsome. His broad shoulders supported his white T-shirt very well. He was quite in the shape of a coat hanger and was born with a natural figure.

Lin Cheng felt that Edward’s broad shoulders were very sexy and masculine.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She took the phone and said to him in a charming tone, “Thank you. My phone broke yesterday, and I’m going to buy a new one today. Since you gave it to me, I’ll treat you to a meal to show my gratitude.”
