Pampered Like A Princess

When Anna returned to the hotel, Andrew wanted to send her there, but she refused. She booked the top floor of the hotel. On the one hand, she didn’t want anyone to disturb her. On the other hand, she kept her whereabouts a secret. Usually, she didn’t ask the hotel waiter to come up.

Andrew stayed outside the hotel for a while and then left.

Anna took the elevator upstairs and went back to the top floor of his bag. The two bodyguards beside the elevator door told her that Mr. Lowe was here.

Anna nodded with no expression on his face. She walked into the luxurious suite with her bag in her hand and saw Zayden sitting on a leather seat in front of the French window. He was wearing a straight silver-gray suit with long legs stretched out. He held his forehead with one hand and looked at the mobile phone in his hand with a faint melancholy look, lost in thought.

Zayden painted a prison for memories of the past, just like Anna being trapped by love and being trapped for many years.

Wasn’t it said that people were easy to forget? But how could they forget the first person who was tempted? Maybe this was the nestling’s beauty. No matter how many people they met in the future, they would always remember the first one.

Anna took off the high heels on his feet, threw down his bag, and casually asked Zayden, “You are quite fast. I thought you would find me in at least a few days.”

Zayden’s eyes flickered, and he stopped thinking. He looked back at Anna and asked, “Why did you come back to Haleston City?”

Anna shrugged and smiled, but he didn’t answer. He stepped on the soft carpet with his bare feet, opened the drawer beside the bed, took out a pack of cigarettes and metal lighter, went out of the terrace, lit a snow-white cigarette, and smoked. His long hair covered half of her little face, and the curling white smoke rose slightly, setting off the hazy night behind her. She was beautiful, but the most lonely.

Anna didn’t smoke in the past. She was a little pet of the Bailey family, and the best food, clothing, housing, and education were all the best. However, she had great changes in her life and had great ups and downs. Later, she found that smoking was the most numb to her. Gradually, she developed a habit.

Anna turned around and saw that Zayden was still sitting there, looking down at his phone. His handsome face was half gloomy and half gloomy. She called him, “Don’t you feel bored staring at your phone all the time? Come out and smoke with me.”

Zayden looked up at Anna. Women’s smoking would always give people a bad impression, but it wouldn’t happen to Anna. She had a good temperament and elegant movements. It was a visual enjoyment for beautiful women to smoke.

Zayden stood up and came to Anna’s side. He still raised his hand to take away her cigarette and faintly persuaded her, “Don’t smoke too much.”

Anna smiled, but he was not annoyed. He just raised his head and opened his mouth to smoke. She was beautiful like this.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Zayden continued to ask her, “Why did you come back to Haleston City?” Seeing Anna’s refusal to cooperate, he lowered his voice and said, “There is nothing here that belongs to you.”

Anna stiffened for a moment, but soon he smiled brightly. “But there are still people I miss here.”

Zayden vaguely remembered that many years ago, on the surface, he was escorting Nelissa abroad, but in fact, he was secretly protecting Anna. They got on the same plane. One of them was in the front seat, and the other was in the back. Nelissa was in a very bad state, and she would have nightmares when she fell asleep. He would only rest assured if she stayed with him all the time. Later, he took some time to look at Anna. She was very quiet, only ordered a glass of water, and had nothing to eat. It was not until he came that she showed a cold smile, and the hatred in her eyes was very deep.

Anna said, “I hate you. You ruined my life.”

Zayden didn’t say anything at that time. The hatred in Anna’s eyes was true, but he was very numb to the cruelty of reality. If it weren’t for Nelissa, he wouldn’t be soft-hearted. Anna hated his biological father, the man whose mother gave birth to her.

When the plane arrived in the Forbidden City and got off the plane, he left with Nelissa. Anna was also arranged to be taken away. They had thought that this matter would come to an end. But at that time, no one had expected that it was not only Anna who changed their fate, but also Nelissa and him. The fate had been disrupted. The red lines had circled around, and the evil fate was born again.

If Nelissa hadn’t met Anna, she wouldn’t have been followed by Susan. If Anna hadn’t known about Nelissa’s existence, he wouldn’t have been so unwilling.

…

Anna suddenly said, “I met Edward tonight. He’s with Nelissa.”

Zayden’s fingers, which were holding the cigarette, paused for a moment, but he still put out the cigarette butt in the transparent ashtray as usual. A few bits of ash burned his fingers, but he didn’t feel any pain. He became more and more lost in thought…

When Edward returned to the hospital, it was getting late. As soon as he entered the ward, he saw Nelissa lying on the table. Her slender body was only covered with a thin shirt. There was no light in the room, only the open window shining in the dim moonlight.

Nelissa was absent-mindedly playing with her phone. She glanced at Edward’er and ignored him.

Edward turned on the light as he closed the door. He frowned and asked Nelissa, “Why aren’t you resting in bed?”

Nelissa snorted and raised her eyes slightly. She didn’t even look at Edward. She poked the screen of her phone with her fingers and got angry with herself.

“What’s wrong?” Edward found it a little funny and felt that Nelissa’s little temper was very interesting. He casually put down the food boxes he brought back, walked to Nelissa’s side, touched her head with his big hand, and said in a loving tone, “I’ve only been away for a while, and you want me to die? Why are you so clingy with me?”

Nelissa wanted to say that he was shameless, but she didn’t expect that he couldn’t do it. He went to see Anna, and she… What else could she think? She wanted to pull his hand down, but she coveted the warmth of his fingers and couldn’t bear to get rid of the man’s hand. Nelissa felt that she was useless and couldn’t even throw a tantrum. She was unwilling to give up and bit Edward’s finger.

Edward’s expression changed slightly. Feeling wronged, he said, “You’re really late.”

Edward paused slightly and promised her seriously, “It won’t happen again.”

Nelissa nodded silently, feeling a little disappointed. She knew that Edward had gone to see Anna, but she didn’t say that she didn’t want to question him like a jealous woman. Just now, he hadn’t come back, and she had thought about calling him, but what did he want to say? He didn’t want to see Anna, so he came back immediately?

“Oh no, it’s not good at all.”

She believed that Edward was sincere to her. He wouldn’t do anything to hurt her, but women always couldn’t restrain their wild thoughts when they were sensitive. When he didn’t come back, he also thought about it when he came back. He had thought too much. Now he was using the social network on his mobile phone. It was either a married mistress or an affair. All of them looked panic-stricken…

“Don’t move,” said Nelissa in a low voice. She put down her phone and stood up. She was only tall enough to stand in front of Edward’s chest. He was wearing a white shirt today. It was clean and there were no suspicious traces on the collar of his shirt. Nelissa thought for a moment, and the tip of her nose was close to that of a tall man. She sniffed the scent of his body…
