Eli turned her body so that she was facing Sean. She stared into his eyes and said, "I think that you will look even more beautiful than Yvonne if you were to dress up as a woman." "Why would a man like me need to look beautiful?" Sean said seriously. Eli chuckled, "To attract my attention. I like a good-looking man." Sean was playing with her long hair. "Alright, then I will try to look better." Eli smiled and asked him sheepishly, "Why do you like me? Is it because I am pretty?" "Since when were you pretty?" Sean frowned. Eli lowered her gaze. Sean was in a good mood, hence, he grabbed Eli and held her in his arms. "There are a lot of good-looking people in the world, but their appearance won't last forever. I don't care about your appearance. I think that I fell for you was because you helped me with my homework for three years. I bet that only you could bear with me for that long." "You should have told me this earlier, then, I would
Their eyes met when Eli turned to look in Natasha's direction. She was stunned. However, Sean had already dragged her away before she could take a second look. Sean lowered his voice and said to her calmly, "That's not the real Natasha." "What?" Eli gasped in surprise, "But she looks just like her, doesn't she?" "There is also another man who looks just like Jasper. His name is Bellamy Chuck. This lady has gone through plastic surgery, while Bellamy did not," Sean explained. "Wow! That's so rare," Eli said. At this moment, she thought of Stella. Stella would have been overwhelmed with grief if Jasper really was dead. She might have even taken her own life. Therefore, there could only be two possibilities. Either Bellamy was actually Jasper, or Stella was helping Jasper to plan his revenge. What would happen if she could successfully avenge Jasper's death? Eli didn't dare to think more about it. Her heart was filled with unease. "Do
"Do you think that your wife here is still a young woman who could charm every other man? You're just overthinking it. Would you prefer that I shave my head off and dress like a nun? Wouldn't that worry you less?" Stella replied helplessly. "I'm not saying that you should become a nun. How's this, you could come and work for me. Since I'm the Director for Department of External Affairs and the lead interviewer, it wouldn't be a problem to let you in," Bellamy said as he smirked. "Sean wouldn't want me there," Stella answered cautiously. "Are you going to let go of this opportunity just because he doesn't want you there?" Bellamy asked her in return, "I even got you the answers for the entry tests." Stella chuckled and explained, "I'm sure that everyone would have already known that whatever happened to Christian and the Director of the Education Department were all single-handedly caused by me. Another issue will soon arise if I were to start working in the Dep
Eli felt that Sean was a little too close to her, so she pushed him away gently and changed the topic, "Are we there yet? It feels like it's taking us forever." "We'll reach the port soon." "The port?" Eli turned to him in shock and asked, "Do we have to take a boat to reach that place?" "Yes, it's on an isolated island." "F*ck. Why does everyone like the islands? They are far away from civilization and the roads are so dangerous," Eli complained. "There are several reasons why the training ground is on a deserted island. Firstly, it's far away from the public, so we need not worry about the citizens' safety, and secondly, it's easier to run our tests and training if the parameters are set and locked in. Lastly, the fight on a real combat battleground would be far tougher than the one they have on the island. Hence, we would need to train their decision-making skills, strategies planning, processing capability, and how they react under pressure," Sean expl
Sean walked towards the first floor of the ship. The ship was gigantic. It had four floors including the cabins. It was full of soldiers. Eli noticed the different cannons situated on the top floor as she raised her head. It seemed that this ship had been refurbished into a military ship. She quickly followed behind Sean and proceeded to the first floor. Someone came over and took off Sean's coat and hung it on a coat rack. The heaters in the room warmed Eli up as soon as she entered the ship. She couldn't help but notice Colonel Cher standing beside her. Unlike the President, no one offered to remove the coat from him. Hence, Eli dared not do it either. Sean looked at her and asked, "Don't you feel warm?" "Yes, I do," Eli responded inaudibly. "Take off your jacket and put it there then," Sean said as he pointed to the coat rack in the corner. "Alright," Eli immediately went to the corner and removed her winter jacke
Eli stared at him in confusion. "I agree with what you had just said and I want to become a leader who is well-respected by everyone. So, this shall be your reward," After that, he looked at the sergeant, "Please prepare the same food for Miss Wayne and me in the future." "Understood," the sergeant answered respectfully. At that moment, Eli thought that Sean was so manly, even though he was unlike any of the men whom she had a crush on. Eli was so full after the meal that she wanted to just lay on the bed and rest. However, she couldn't do so as she had to pretend to be Sean's assistant. She had to follow him wherever he went. Eli followed Sean as he walked towards a door that led to a study room. The shelves were filled with all sorts of books. He reached for an appraisal book with past recordings and began to read it on his desk. Meanwhile, Janet placed a cup of coffee beside Sean's table politely. "You may leave now. Mi
"Sean, I would have already exposed your son's whereabouts or even told Larry about it if I wanted to go against you. However, I didn't do that. Therefore, please don't doubt my sincerity. I like her more than you think and I would never want to hurt her. I want to be together with her and protect her for the rest of my life. "You should let her go if you really love her. Both of you aren't really compatible with each other. Besides, I'm sure that you know her better than I do. She is not the kind of woman who is willing to support her man silently," Haward explained to Sean confidently. Sean gritted his teeth and paused for a moment. After that, he answered Haward, "How long have you known her? You two had only met half a year ago, whilst I have known her for more than fifteen years. Do you think that you could convince me that easily?" "Love has nothing to do with how long you have known a person. It doesn't even matter if I had known her for five days or five
When she saw Sean's furious expression and blood-red eyes, she knew that he was in a terrible mood. She lowered her head and moved towards the door. Although she didn't know where else to go, she knew that staying away from him was the best thing to do right now. Sean stepped forward and grabbed her by the hand. He pushed Eli away, causing her to lose her balance. She fell to the floor and glared at him in confusion. At the same time, she could feel anger brewing inside her. However, on second thought, her resolve to stay low-key seemed to have overridden her trigger switch at this moment. She suppressed her anger and got up from the floor. Her lips were pursed, and she noticed Sean's menacing eyes. It looked as though he wanted to kill her at this instant. "Was it fun?" Sean asked sternly. Eli rolled her eyes and looked away. Sean became even more furious at her blatant ignorance. He had been tremendously worried about her safety after lashing out at her
