"I'm running late," The implication was that she didn't want to remove her makeup. "It's fine if you're late. Why are you so worried? He's not an important person. The most important person is standing in front of you now," Sean said firmly. Eli stood still. She didn't want to remove her makeup. It was one of women's greatest fear. "You're not going to remove it, are you? Auntie Emma, remove it for her," Sean ordered. Seeing that Auntie Emma was already approaching her, Eli said helplessly, "I'll remove it." She went back to the bathroom, applied some makeup remover, and washed her face. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. How could Sean do this to her? She had always wanted to look good, especially as she grew older. Her eyes lit up, and she had an idea. She thought of bringing the cosmetics out and then applying them later. What a great idea! She continued to wash her face with water when she felt someone
Eli did not see the gift bag in his hand. She asked in surprise, "Have you been here before? How do you speak our dialect so well? Oh, by the way, is your girlfriend is from here?" "My mother is from here," Haward explained. "What a coincidence. So did my mother." Haward was amused and he continued to joke, "What a coincidence. I also have two eyes and one nose." "You are killing me. How long are you going to stay here then?" Eli asked casually and pressed the elevator button. "I won't leave until I find my girlfriend," Haward said in a low voice. "With your appearance, ability, and character, I'm sure that you'll be able to get your girlfriend back. Don't worry. I am not wasting your time here, am I?" Eli asked apologetically. AT this moment, her cell phone rang. There were only three people who knew her number. When she saw that it was Sean calling her, she thought for a moment before answering the call, "I've already arrived a m
She walked up to Sean. Sean saw the gift box in her arms. He grabbed it from her hand and threw it on the ground. "What are you doing? You agreed to let me go out. I only managed to meet my friend for a few minutes before I got your call. You told me to come back, which I promptly did. I don't think that there is any reason for you to be angry," Eli said in confusion. Sean held Eli's chin, his face tensed. "Do you know who Haward is?" "I don't know who he is, so I don't think that I have done anything wrong," Eli's chin was pinched by him hard. She tried to push him away but she couldn't. "How dare you say that? Who allowed you to put on makeup?" Sean seemed to have sensed something in her gaze. He held her hand and pulled her into his room. His heart tightened in pain. It was as though someone was stabbing into his heart repeatedly, leading him to become impulsive and irritable. He even wanted to cut her mind open and take out all the me
"Tell me, tell me," Eli urged. "Larry's younger sister committed suicide because of me," Sean said simply. "Oh," Eli said and nodded. Her imagination filled in the rest of the story. She had always known his history. There seemed to be more than one woman who had committed suicide for him. This man was indeed a demon who was good at the art of seduction. Fortunately, she was smart enough not to lfall in love with him. Moreover, he was still a married man. Else, she would surely suffer from depression. Distracted, Eli absent-mindedly put a large piece of tomato into her mouth. She realized that the bite was too big. When she bit into it, the juice spilled out to the sides of her mouth. Sean had no choice but to take out a tissue to wipe her mouth. Eli stepped back. She was not used to having him wipe the corner of her mouth. She felt that this was what an adult would do to a child. She was not his child. She took out a tissue and wi
Natasha originally wanted to say something, but Sean was looking at her coldly. His gaze was unfriendly, and there was a warning in his eyes. It seemed as though he could kill her instantly with his aura. Natasha was terrified. There was no need for Mr. President to speak for her to know her place. She could only say in a low voice, "I understand. I will not act like this in the future, Madam." Yvonne returned to the study and closed the door. She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, my maid is too insensible." Sean curled the corner of his mouth and said meaningfully, "Eli is not a person to be trifled with. Even I do not dare to bully her. Your maid should stay away from her so that she won't... cry in the future." That was a statement for sure. Yvonne understood his hint. He had decided to let this matter slide this time, and she knew that she would not be able to protect Natasha the next time. Yvonne changed the topic with a smile, "Eli is a
"He said that someone will be here to do my hair," Eli glanced at Sean. She didn't want to mention the clothes because she was afraid that she would accidentally offend Yvonne. "The designers need another half an hour to come over," Sean explained. "Eli, why don't you come to my room first? Your clothes haven't been designed yet, and they won't be able to get them ready in time. Come to my room and choose 2 sets first. I have many gowns that I have never worn before. You may choose the ones that you like," Yvonne said. It turned out that she was already aware of it. Sean really did tell Yvonne everything. In that case, she didn't need to worry anymore, "Thank you, then I will just choose one." "Choose two. The designer needs at least two to three days to modify everything. One is not enough. You will need it tonight and tomorrow," Yvonne then made her way upstairs. Eli was embarrassed. Yvonne had treated her too kindly. She felt that Y
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Eli couldn't help but ask. Sean was calm, and an evil smile soon crept onto his face. He looked charming under the light, "If you weren't staring at me, how would you have known that I was looking at you?" Eli was speechless. She thought of another memory. There was once their school celebrated a festival during their eighth grade. They had asked each class to think of some entertainment programs. Eli suggested dancing. In order to dance well, her mother took her to the gym to have some private training. On that very day, everyone was rehearsing until late in the evening. Sean came over not long after. He had chosen to play the piano. It was said that he didn't plan to join, but he changed his mind later. In the end, one of the other classmate's performance was canceled. After all, his father was the Secretary of the Provincial Committee at that time, and the teachers couldn't risk offending him. He was looking
His palm was warm. His grip on her was tight. Eli blushed instantly. She felt so nervous beside him. The Prime Minister was sitting right next to him. Wasn't he acting too brazenly? What if his actions were exposed? Eli withdrew her hand. He did not insist, and he just stared at her deeply. Yvonne noticed the exchange and smiled faintly. The others took their seats one after another. She did not care about politics nor did she know any of these people. She didn't dare to eat anything from the table as she was afraid of embarrassing herself. However, they had been communicating in F Country's language the entire time and she didn't understand any of it. She looked at the others. They didn't seem to understand their conversation either. They just smiled and kept silent. She felt a sense of relief in her heart when she realized that the high officials might end up embarrassing themselves alongside her. At this moment, Sean turne
