Pampered Like A Princess

Edward drove them home after the movie, his jacket stained by Nathan’s ice cream.

Nelissa apologized profusely and told him that she would give it a scrub before sending it to the dry cleaner.

Truth be told, he did not care much about the jacket. However, Nelissa seemed very apologetic as she fumbled for the label.

She was behaving like his woman.

Edward glanced at her swollen lips repeatedly as he drove.

Nelissa scrutinized the label. It seemed that it must be dry-cleaned. Washing it using the machine would only ruin the fabric.

When they arrived at the apartment, Noelle pointed at the children’s seats and asked, “Uncle, could we have those please?”

Edward had intended to give them the seats from the beginning. He carried the heavy seats on each arm and strode to the elevator.

Nelissa held the jacket in her arm carefully and entered the elevator with him. It seemed that he was really fond of Noelle.

Their reflection on the elevator doors resembled a family of four.

Nelissa was a little dazed, only snapping out of her thoughts when the elevator doors opened on her floor.

She decided to ask Edward to stay for dinner. After all, she had received many favors from him.

It was only right for her to make it up to him.

Thankfully, Jolene was not coming home for dinner that night.

Nelissa was making dinner in the kitchen while Edward was playing with the children in the living room.

Her impression of him had changed significantly as her children started getting along with him.

She wondered if they would eventually become a close family if things were to go on this way.

Nathan would grow older and resemble Edward even more. She was afraid that he would take on Edward’s personality.

Worried by the possibility of that happening, Nelissa stopped cooking and went to the living room..

“Nate, Noey, have you finished your homework? Hurry up and get to it before dinner.”

“Yes, Madam Nelly.”

They would normally do their homework on Sunday mornings. However, their mother’s words were the ultimate rule in the house.

They immediately scurried away.

Nelissa took out a new ashtray from the drawer.

Turning to Edward, she said, “Use this if you want to smoke and leave the buds in.”

Edward looked at her, curious, “Why would you have an ashtray here? Do other men come over here often?”

Nelissa huffed, “Weren’t you the one who complained about not having an ashtray the last time you were here?”

Edward was stunned and with a delightful smile, he said, “So you bought this for me?”

Nelissa returned to cooking and mumbled to herself,

“I only bought it because it was on discount…”

“Do you have a specific place I could smoke at?” Edward wondered if Nelissa would mind.

“Anywhere is fine, but not in front of the children.”

Edward scanned the living room and went to the balcony with the ashtray. He was able to spot his mansion from there. He grinned in satisfaction.

He went back inside after he was done smoking.

He noticed the children rushing into the kitchen as Nelissa handed them each a carton of milk.

How could a lady this young already have two toddlers?

The children then returned to their room.

Edward leaned against the narrow kitchen’s entrance, his eyes on Nelissa.

Afraid that he was hungry, Nelissa quickly made a sandwich for him, “Have some.”

Edward remained silent, his eyes on her unwavering.

She picked the sandwich up and fed it to his mouth.

“Does it taste good?”

It felt as if Nelissa was a housewife, seeking for her husband’s approval.

“Mmm,” Edward replied, charmed by the woman in front of him.

Nelissa was delighted since she was a helpless cook back then. She struggled to learn to cook when she arrived at Southville City.

It was impressive to have an extremely picky eater like Edward to taste her cooking. Perhaps she could consider being a chef in the future.

Nelissa glanced at the pot. It seemed that the beef goulash would be done soon.

Edward licked the corner of his mouth seductively, the aroma of the food alluring.

Just as Nelissa was about to call for her children, Edward suddenly cornered her to the counter..

He kissed her passionately and trapped her in his arms.

Stunned by his sudden forwardness, Nellisa’s heart raced and her face was flushed.

She squeezed her lips together and scratched Edward’s muscular arm, hoping that he would let her go.

All of a sudden, she heard the door creaking behind her.

In a panic, Nelissa mustered all her strength and struggled to push the man away. Her knees grew weak, and she tugged on his belt below his shirt, unable to withstand his teasing anymore.

Edward’s body was blocking the entrance as the children entered the kitchen. All they could see was their mother stirring the beef goulash behind him.

“Is dinner ready yet, Mommy?” Noelle asked.

“Wash your hands, and dinner will be served soon,” Edward told the nosy brats.

Nelissa let out an awkward cough when the children left. Her eyes were misty.

Edward wiped her tears with his shirt and teased her, “Did I hurt you or were you just really excited?”

Nelissa glared at him, dismayed at his constant teasing.

Meanwhile, Edward was still burning in lust. He stepped forward, seemingly wanting to grab her in for another kiss.

“No…” Nelissa stumbled backwards and whispered, “The children are here.”

Edward stopped, grunting unhappily at the rejection.

Nelissa seemed to still be in a daze when Edward was about to leave after dinner.

The kiss they had earlier was still vivid in her mind.

“Send me off?” Edward requested by the door.

Nelissa shook her head, afraid of the tricks he would have up his sleeves.

“I need to watch over my children. It’s unsafe to leave them here alone.”

Edward then left without saying another word.

Nelissa breathed a sigh of relief as she closed her door. It felt as though all of her strength had been drained away.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

It was 8 p. m. when Jolene returned and noticed Nelissa washing a man’s jacket. She asked curiously,

“Whose jacket is that?”

“It’s Edward’s,” Nelissa replied nervously.

Nathan and Noelle pointed at the children’s seats and recited everything that had transpired earlier that day. They even told her that Edward praised them for their smarts!

Jolene was surprised that Edward had spent the entire day with Nelissa and her children.

Nathan commended, “That man is rich and handsome. He’s so generous and he even kissed Mommy on her lips!”

Nelissa was mystified when she heard Nathan’s words.

“Are you planning to get married into a rich family, Nelly?” Jolene asked.

She believed that Nelissa ought to act fast if she intends to have a future with Edward. After all, opportunities like these were rare to come by.

Nelissa assumed that she was joking, so she said, “Do you really think that the Hales family would accept my children?

Jolene was flustered by her statement.

Sophie had just returned from her shopping trip when Eliza was about to get off work. Her driver helped her carry a few bags of branded clothes into her room.

Eliza had to work overtime to attend to Sophie’s needs.

“Brew me some fruit tea.” Sophie instructed Eliza as she made her way upstairs.

She switched on the lights and entered Edward’s room. After pacing around the room, she sat on the huge black bed that was neatly made.

Sophie lay on his bed and imagined herself getting intimate with Edward, his warm sweat dripping all over her body…

She recalled the first time she met Edward at the Bailey’s family dinner. He was handsome and tall, and every lady there was attracted to him.

When she got up from the bed and fixed herself, she noticed a strand of long black hair on the bed that did not belong to her.
