Pampered Like A Princess

“She thinks of me as her father.” Edward’s arched eyebrows moved slightly, and she loosened her grip on Noelle’s collar.

Nelissa took over her daughter’s little hand and tucked them in. She said awkwardly, “Maybe it’s a dream.”

Edward frowned. Nelissa’s daughter wanted a father and had a good impression of him. Would Nelissa let them reconcile with Zayden for the sake of the two kids?

“Or find another man to be the new father of two kids?”

Thinking of these possibilities, Edward frowned.

Nelissa gently closed the door and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water for Edward. When she came out, Edward was answering the phone on the balcony. She was waiting for him with a glass of water.

“Yes, I’m back now.” It was a call from Andrew. Edward originally had a meeting this afternoon, but he was temporarily canceled. When he returned to the company, he was always absent-minded. While dealing with his work, his mind was filled with tears.

He was very anxious, so he simply left the company in advance to find Nelissa. He delayed the meeting until night, and asked the senior executives to stay and work overtime tonight. Now everyone was waiting for him to go back to the meeting.

“About an hour or so.” Edward looked at Nelissa as he spoke on the phone. His long black hair swayed with the wind. He brushed her hair with his hand, then took the cup of water from her hand and gulped it down.

Under the dim light of the night behind him, the man’s charm was extremely sexy.

Hanging up the phone, Edward handed the glass back to Nelissa. His tall body suddenly leaned down, and his thin lips kissed Nelissa. He stroked the corner of her mouth with his fingers and whispered ambiguously, “There is another meeting in my company. I’m leaving.”

“Okay.” Nelissa didn’t keep him, and her heart beat fast.

After Edward left, Nelissa only heard the sound of the door closing. She stood on the balcony and looked downstairs. Soon she saw Edward’s luxury car driving away. It was not until he left the community that she went back to the living room and washed her cup.

Nelissa’s lips were wet, with the scent left by Edward after drinking water.

She dried the cup, took a shower, and was about to sleep. After a while, her mobile phone beside her rang with two text messages.

She turned over and picked up her phone. It was a text message from Jordan. She had saved his phone number at noon today.

When she clicked on the text, Nelissa was not sleepy at all.

[Don’t lose your movie tickets. I’ll wait for you at the entrance of the cinema at 22 o’clock on Friday night.]

Nelissa didn’t understand. She thought that Jordan had given up on her. At noon, she had made it so clear that there was no need for him to pursue a woman with two illegitimate children. He was so young to date a girl of the same age as him. There was no need to waste time on her.

Nelissa sighed and typed a text message on her phone’s keyboard with her fair fingers. She wanted to reject Jordan and persuade him to turn back.

She didn’t have any plans for the second spring. Edward… It was just an accident. After all, he was the father of Noelle for Nathan. She had some personal conflicts.

Jordan’s second text message was faster than Nelissa’s.

Nelissa looked at them and frowned. “I’ve seriously thought about it. You and I are so young and there are countless possibilities in the future. Why don’t we give each other a chance to develop? I admit that I can’t accept what you said at noon today. I’m just texting you now, and I don’t dare to call you directly. Nelissa, I’ve been brave and timid once for you. I’ll wait for you tomorrow night, and we can try to date.”

Jordan had studied abroad, and his character was not like that of an average Chinese. After a night, he figured out that he still had to pursue Nelissa. Anyway, it was not a marriage alliance. It was Nelissa who wanted to be good to him. It was not her two children who ignored her and Zayden’s children. He still liked this little crying bag very much.

Nelissa didn’t reply to Jordan. She lay on the bed and deleted her text message one by one.

She and Jordan were of the same age, while Edward was 11 years older than her. She didn’t know if it was appropriate for people of the same age to be in a relationship, or if it was safer to be with a mature man.

There was a saying that the girl accompanied the boy through a childish and immature period, and taught him to become a responsible man. In the end, he matured, but his kindness was given to another woman.

Thinking about it, it was enough to torture but helpless.

Nelissa put her phone aside and didn’t feel sleepy for a long time. She was worried that it would be another twenty-two o’clock in the evening of the next day, which meant that she had two men to choose at the same time.

“I’ll make an appointment with one and give up the other.”

Nelissa knew that it was impossible between Jordan and her, but the possibility between her and Edward was even smaller.

She tossed and turned on the bed, hugging the pillow tightly and forcing herself to stop struggling. She might as well give up both of them, lest she regret it in the future.

The next morning.

Nelissa got up too late to make breakfast for Noelle for Nathan. She took them downstairs and bought two pieces of milk and bread from a nearby bread shop, letting them eat on the school bus.

After sending him off for Nathan, Nelissa called Jolene on her way back to her apartment. “Are you coming back this weekend?”

“…”

Hearing Jolene’s words, Nelissa nodded and entered the elevator. “You’re only returning on Monday? Tuesday? Alright, I’ll wait for you, but you have to give me a call every day. I’m afraid that you won’t even know if you’ll be killed by a favor if you can’t talk to him properly.”

“…”

“Okay. Bye.” After the call with Jolene, the elevator arrived. Nelissa went home, changed her clothes, and prepared to go to work.

In the mirror, there were many hickeys on the woman’s white skin, and there were obvious light red marks on her thin waist. The inner part of her thighs was the most red. Nelissa glanced at her and quickly put on her dress. She sat in front of the dressing table, biting her red lips to cover up her embarrassment.

Nelissa was in a bad mood for no reason. For a man who made her so embarrassed to make things difficult for her, it was better for her to force him on the cruise!

Thinking of how Edward would be intimate with Yvonne, Nelissa put down the comb heavily. Looking at her tightly knitted eyebrows in the mirror, she was about to go crazy. She was angry that she was not determined enough. Edward wanted her to surrender, but she didn’t want to admit defeat!

Nelissa picked up her bag and went out to work.

In the morning, Nelissa was busy in the company. At noon, she asked the client to meet her. She didn’t have time to catch her breath. Instead, she had to talk about two small mistakes in the contract. She didn’t find it when she was sorting it out yesterday. In the end, the contract didn’t succeed. The client was a little talkative about her carelessness and wanted to see if she could make up for it next time.

…

Nelissa left the western restaurant and went to the kindergarten to pick up Noelle for Nathan. On the way, the bus stopped. The driver stopped at a nearby bus stop, and the evacuated passengers got off the bus and sat down.

This wait took another dozen or twenty minutes.

Nelissa was in a hurry to pick up the child from school. She looked at the time of her watch and had to call the teacher of Noelle for Nathan. She told the teacher that she would pick up the child later today, and the car was out of order on the way.

The school was supposed to be off school early in Friday, and the parents also took their children home early to spend the weekend.

Nelissa didn’t want to wait for her for too long in the past Nathan. She stopped a car and got in. She couldn’t help sighing in her heart. Everything was not going well today. It was a black Friday!

It was already seven o’clock in the evening when they got home.

Nelissa first took a shower for her daughter, Noelle. Nathan later, she wrote her homework in the living room. After he finished his homework, Nelissa also helped Noelle to take a shower and then it was her turn to take a shower for Nathan.

For dinner, Nelissa made it casually. There were no ingredients in the refrigerator, so she used all she could use. She fried rice with cheese, a plate of boiled vegetables, and a plate of cold mixed green melon. She planned to take Noelle to the supermarket for shopping for Nathan tomorrow’s rest, and then cook delicious food for them.

While eating, her son suddenly asked her while eating, “Mom, am I better looking than uncle?”

“Which uncle?” Nelissa gave him a cabbage. She thought that her son had seen a male star compare on TV. A child’s way of thinking was very strange.

“Edward!” He raised his eyebrows for Nathan and licked the rice on the corner of his mouth.

In Nelissa’s eyes, her son’s raised eyebrows were like Edward’s. She felt a little guilty, but her son’s clear eyes did not look good. “Go and ask your sister in the mirror. Mom’s aesthetic standard is not good.”

Nathan later, he turned around and asked his sister, Noelle, “Am I good looking or he is good looking?”

“Of course I’m good-looking!” Noelle replied resolutely.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Uncle was the best-looking man she had ever seen. He was a perfect match for her mother!

“Oh.” Having not spoken for Nathan, she continued to eat.

Nelissa looked at him strangely. It turned out to be ‘oh’, not ‘hmph’, not like her cool son!

After dinner, Nelissa cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks and washed the dishes in the kitchen.

Nathan later, he turned on the television while drinking milk. In the news show, there were many variety shows on Friday night. Jolene and the others were used to a parent-child show, and Noelle sent the TV station there.

“Mom, can we have a father?” Looking at the trailer, Noelle suddenly said.

Nelissa almost slipped her hand and dropped the bowl. She was silent in the kitchen for a long time before she washed the bowls and chopsticks and went out. She sat down on the sofa and held her daughter in her arms and complained, “If you want a father, don’t want a mother?”

“Of course not. We want a father, and then we can share the burden for you. You can’t pick us up after work, so I can come to pick us up first. There is no food in the refrigerator, so I can take us out for dinner. When it’s raining, I can hold my brother and I to hold an umbrella for you, and help you do housework and cook.”

Noelle tugged at her little fingers and twisted her little head to show her mother everything she could think of. She wanted her mother to be moved.

Nelissa couldn’t help laughing. “Noelle, I don’t think you want a father. It’s more appropriate for you to have a male servant.”

Noelle acted like a spoiled child. “Mom, I want a father.”

Nelissa felt guilty. She couldn’t give her daughter a father, but Noelle rarely mentioned the topic of father. She asked her daughter, “What are you going to do today? Didn’t you say that there was only a mother in the world in the past Nathan? Have you changed your mind now?”
