Chapter 203
Spoiled by the President
Nell grew even more surprised.
She wanted to refuse immediately, but her eyes suddenly caught sight of the other lounge not far away. Looking around again, she agreed.
âAlright, come in!â
Jason followed her into the lounge.
Nell had no intention of exchanging pleasantries with him. Once inside, she leaned against the edge of the table and folded her arms across her chest. She looked at him and cut straight to the chase. âWhat did you want to talk to me about?â
Her bluntness made Jason somewhat cramped.
For some reason, the words that he had rehearsed back and forth in his heart countless times were unable to come out when faced with her clear and cold eyes.
After a moment, he forced a smile. âItâs nothing. Itâs just that itâs been a long time since we talked seriously, so I just wanted to have a casual conversation.â
Nell curled her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes.
âIâm really sorry, but Iâm not Celine, so I have no interest in married people. Since thereâs nothing else you want, then thereâs no need to talk anymore.â
As she spoke, she straightened and walked out.
Jasonâs heart panicked and he hurriedly reached out to pull her back.
âWait.â
Nell frowned.
A subconscious repulsion and nausea instantly welled up. She flung off his hand and took two steps back, looking at him with cold eyes.
Jasonâs hand froze in the air.
He remained stunned when he saw Nellâs expression twist. She pulled out a silk handkerchief from her bag and wiped the wrist he had just held before casually throwing it into the trash can beside her.
âIf you want to say something, then just say it. Donât get touchy!â
Jasonâs throat clogged up, suddenly feeling extremely painful.
It was like something hard was crushing his heart. It was dull and muffled yet not overly intense, making it impossible for him to speak.
He pursed his lips and said softly after a few seconds. âAlright, Iâll be straightforward.â
Nell remained expressionless and did not even look at him.
Although Jasonâs heart felt uncomfortable, he knew that he was simply reaping the seeds he sowed and that he was not in a position to say anything.
Thus, he went straight to the point. âI went to the capital a few days ago.â
Nell raised her eyebrows. âWhat has that got to do with me?â
Jason replied in a deep voice, âDonât rush. Can you guess who I met?â
Nell was not interested in guessing anything about him, so she simply said, âNo.â
Jason stalled.
The undisguised rejection and impatience in the womanâs attitude made the stifling pain he felt in his heart grow stronger.
He took a deep breath and said seriously, âI met Gideon Leith.â
Nell paused.
âI saw with my own eyes that he was with a little girl of four or five years old, and that child called him daddy. I think you should understand what that means, right?â
Nell was completely stunned.
Seeing her finally react, Jason was slightly relieved and continued, âI didnât want to tell you this, but I really donât want to see you get cheated. Gideon Leith isnât a good man. Even if youâre with him, you wonât have a happy ending.
âHe even dared to lie to you about having a child. You donât know what other things heâs hiding from you. Nelly, you have to think carefully. This has to do with the rest of your life. You canât treat it like a joke.â
Nell finally reacted after a few seconds.
She looked at Jason in confusion. âWho said that heâs lying to me?â
Jason grew bitter. âAre you still unwilling to believe me? He has a child...â
âHe has a child. I know.â
Jason. â...â
Nell gave him a look of disdain and pursed her lips in displeasure.
âI thought you stopped me to tell me something important, but thatâs it? Hah! Jason Morton, even if you have a lot of time, I donât have enough to waste it on you.â
Jason. â???â
âDoesnât it bother you?â
âWhy should it bother me?â
Nell laughed twice as if she heard a big joke.
âJason Morton, you eagerly ran here and talked in circles just to tell me this? How did you want me to respond? With anger? Sadness?
Disappointment?
âDid you want me to break up with Gideon Leith over this news and maybe even get a divorce and never see each other again?
âSorry, but your calculations are wrong. Not only does it not bother me, I like Lizzy very much. Sheâs not just Gideon Leithâs daughter, sheâs also mine.
Do you understand?â
Jason was completely stunned.
Before he came, he thought in his mind countless possible reactions from Nell.
However, he just never expected the outcome to be like this.
He shook his head. âHavenât you always valued loyalty? Donât you hate him for hiding things from you?â
Nell lowered his eyes. âI donât.â
What was there to hate?
It was not love that brought them together in the first place.
At that time, it was naturally impossible for him to tell her the whole truth. Besides, she had things she hid from him too.
Jason found her reaction simply incomprehensible.
âFine, even if you donât hate him for hiding things from you, that child is not your own! Have you ever thought about how difficult it would be for you to get along with each other in the future? Shouldnât you know how difficult it is to be a stepmother?â
Nell sneered.
âThanks for your concern, but donât worry. Lizzy likes me very much, and I like her very much too. I donât think itâs hard for us to get along at all!â
Jason. â...â
He was so angry he wanted to vomit blood.
âNell, wake up. Even if she likes you now, she still has her own biological mother!
âHave you ever thought that no matter how close Gideon Leith and you are now, he once loved another woman and had a child with that woman.
âSince that woman isnât here now, you can be a happy family and live well together, but what if she comes back?
âCan you be sure that a man like Gideon Leith would not leave a place in his heart for the woman he willingly let give birth to his child?
âIf theyâre still in love and that woman comes back one day, will that child still like you as much as she does now? Do you really think you can replace her biological mother? Do you really think you can take the place in Gideon Leithâs heart that belongs to that woman?â
Nellâs finger twitched.
She looked at him expressionlessly.
Jason panted and said bitterly, âNell, donât be stupid. Heâs not suitable for you at all! Donât be a moth that flies into the fire. Not only will you fail to get what you want, but youâll also end up with bruises and nothing else! This is the most sincere advice I can give you!â

After a moment, she said casually. âOh, okay.â
Jason. â???â
âCould your response be any colder?â
Nell forced her lips to smile.
âJason Morton, youâre really quite strange.â
