Pampered Like A Princess

Sophie suspected that Edward was having an affair. She noticed the bruises on his arm when he was changing. Those marks were definitely the aftermath of a passionate session of intimacy.

Now, it was just a matter of deciding between Susan and Nelissa. Which one of them had caught Edward’s interest?

Sophie was more inclined to believe it was Nelissa. Susan had been in town for quite some time and no rumors had ever brewed out of their limited interaction.

However, the rumors had been flying left and right since Nelissa’s appearance.

On the other hand, Susan was in a way different league compared to Nelissa.

Sophie asked, “If Edward took a liking to Susan, what does it make you then?”

Nelissa shrugged and responded, “Casualty? See, you are here interrogating me right now.

I know you don’t like me but my job requires me to have interactions with the Hales Group.

Maybe you could give Master Hales some suggestions? I promise that I will leave you two alone.”

“No,” Sophie shook her head and remarked, “I will never interfere with Edward’s personal life. Besides, I prefer you over Susan. She isn’t fit for Edward.”

Nelissa looked at Sophie in surprise. What?

Sophie maintained her smile and said, “Miss Quest, I think that you are perfect for Edward.

In fact, I am not here to ask you about the details of the events that had transpired yesterday. If you and Edward are together, you have my full support.

It’s tough raising two kids on your own and it makes sense that you need a man for comfort. If Zayden is not the man for the job, Edward is the perfect fit as well.”

“Hold up!” Nelissa interrupted, “Miss Bailey, I don’t understand what you are trying to say. Are you suggesting that we have a polygamous relationship?”

The rich and famous really do have some weird fetishes!

Sophie nodded. “We are just getting what we want. I am the eldest daughter of the Bailey family and because of that, there are some times where I can’t attend social gatherings with Edward.

He needs an obedient, submissive girl that would settle all of these troubles for him.

And you are the perfect candidate for that.” Sophie smiled.

She would never choose Susan for this. Susan was too famous and influential in Haleston City. She would pose a threat to her eventually.

Nelissa was different. She was just a single mother and she had no connections whatsoever. Dealing with her would just be a piece of cake, wouldn’t it?

Nelissa was annoyed. “What if I refuse? Besides, do you really have to do this? You are the first person I have ever met that wants your boyfriend to cheat on you.

Are you planning to get rid of me once you and Edward get married?

Haven’t you ever thought of the chances that I might fall in love with him and refuse to leave? Maybe Edward would grow weary of rich, famous princesses and instead prefer an ordinary, peasant girl? Do you really think that I won’t pose a threat to you?”

Sophie tilted her head and took Nelissa’s words into consideration.

Nelissa was definitely a special one indeed.

She was just a single mother. She didn’t even have the leverage to negotiate here.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Look, Edward will treat you kindly. You will never have to worry about money again. After all of this is over, you would probably have half a billion dollars worth of assets. You could just leave the country with your kids and go wherever you want.

Maybe you do not understand why I am doing this but in our circle, men are never satisfied just having one woman.

The more excellent a man is, the more women would want a piece of him and that is the case with Edward. I can’t keep stopping them forever.

I might as well just find someone he likes and bring them together. When I am busy with work, he could also find some relief…”

“Do you know about the Golden Springs ClubHouse?” Nelissa interrupted Sophie.

“Master Hales is a regular there. There are a limitless number of escorts there. You could find someone for him every single day for the rest of his life!” Nelissa said as she turned around and headed for the door.

“Edward had never touched those women,” Sophie said gloomily. Edward had never even laid a finger on her before!

Nelissa paused. She didn’t even turn around and responded, “Looks like Master Hales has his eyes only for Susan then.”

Nelissa then left.

Jolene came and picked Nelissa and the twins up. Nelissa got into the car and slammed the door behind her. The entire car even shook for a bit.

“What happened to you? Any harder than that and my car is done for!” Jolene was shocked.

“It’s nothing,” Nelissa stared blankly outside the window.

“Really? With that sour face?” Jolene turned around and asked the twins, “Nathan, did you bully someone again?”

Nathan wiggled his index finger and shook his head.

Nelissa didn’t know why she was so upset. It was not supposed to affect her at all.

Over the past few years, she had come to learn the cold harsh truth that people would only respect you if you had wealth and power.

She had initially assumed that Edward was a playboy and went around with any lady that came his way.

But that didn’t seem like the truth.

He had never laid a finger on other women but her. He even came over and flirted with her. What was he thinking?

They all went to the supermarket to get some fruits. Nelissa was picking out a couple of plump apples when her phone rang.

Nelissa handed the fruits to the twins while she scoured through her bag to find her phone.

She finally found the phone; it was Edward.

Nelissa immediately declined the call without hesitation.

Edward glared at the screen of his phone as his pupils widened. There was a huge screen on his side that showed that the stock price of Hales Group had doubled.

“Master Hales, the board of directors are here. The meeting may commence now,” Andrew said.

Edward shot him a death look. Andrew backed away and shut his mouth.

It was silent as a grave in the CEO’s office.

Edward made another call. The call went through briefly before being cut off.

He called again for the third time. At that point, the other party had turned off their phone!

Andrew was terrified. Who dared to refuse Edward’s calls?

“Let’s go.” Edward got up and strode towards the door.

That night after dinner, Jolene returned to her condominium to finish her work.

Nelissa cut up some fruits for the twins before going into the shower. She was exhausted.

In the shower, she removed the bandage around her ankles carefully and threw it away. It was not a wound so the bandage didn’t really help; she would just let it heal over time.

She turned the shower on and crystal clear water splashed onto her face. The doorbell suddenly rang.

“Noelle, Nathan, could you get the door please?” Nelissa shouted in the shower.

After they moved into the condominium, some of the elder neighbors loved how adorable the twins were and it was quite common for some of them to stop by and give the twins some treats.

Nathan grabbed a stool and propped it by the door. Noelle then climbed up the door clumsily to take a peek through the peephole. They were experts at that.

“It’s him,” Noelle said. Nathan climbed up to take a peek as well.

Jolene had mentioned that Edward was Nelissa’s boss. They must be nice and respectful to him, else Nelissa would be in big trouble.

“So, should we open the door?” Noelle tugged at Nathan’s arm and asked.

Truth be told, Nathan didn’t really like Edward, including all the other guys that lingered around Nelissa.

He thought for a while and suggested, “Let’s play rock-paper-scissors. We will open the door if you win.”

“Sure,” Noelle agreed.

About thirty seconds later, the door opened for Edward. He glanced around and didn’t see a single soul until he looked downwards and was welcomed by two munchkins.

Noelle bowed respectfully and said, “Nice to meet you. Please, come in.”

Edward glanced at Noelle and his spirits were lifted slightly. “If only Nelissa was half as sensible as you are.”

Edward ambled into the condominium with another woman following closely behind.

Noelle and Nathan walked behind Edward and suddenly, Noelle screamed out, “Ouch!”

She had stubbed her toe on the chair and she was almost in tears. Edward immediately bent down and carried her up.

“Nathan, look at me! I’m so high up!” Noelle waved her hands around in the air in Edward’s arms.

“Put my sister down right now!” Nathan grabbed the stool from before anxiously.

“Careful with the stool,” Edward glanced at Nathan while lifting Noelle even higher. Noelle could almost touch the ceiling.

She was all smiles and giggles.

Edward let out a faint smile as he watched the erratic demeanor of Nelissa’s precious babies.
