Chapter 225

Boss Leith was startled.

This... did not sound good!

Could it be possible that Nell did not like red roses?

“You’ve been overworking yourself lately so I sent you some gifts to lift up your mood!” he quickly explained.

Nell smiled sarcastically. “Then why don’t you bring yourself over here?”

The man was overjoyed to hear that.

“Really? Can I?”

Nell clenched her teeth.

Then she slapped herself on the forehead speechlessly.

How could she... This silly mouth of hers!

She coughed drily before changing the subject. “Alright, I got your flowers. They’re quite beautiful. I like them very much.”

Hmm, she needed to show her appreciation once in a while.

In actuality, apart for the first few seconds that she felt delighted upon seeing the flowers, she thought they were getting in the way. However, it would be a waste to throw them away and it felt awkward to give them to others.

Despite that, she figured she should not be ungrateful upon remembering the man’s well intentions and the words on the card.

Or the man could be disappointed.

Gideon was greatly pleased with her words.

“As long as you like it. Let me know what else you like and I’ll get it delivered to you right away.”

Nell quickly interrupted the man. “Hang on, just this once. Don’t do this again.”

Gideon’s identity and status were special.

It would be better to keep a low profile in order to prevent people from finding out about their relationship.

However, he was instantaneously upset upon hearing that.

“Why do I feel like you’re ashamed of me?”

Nell laughed drily.

“It’s not that at all. But this extravagance makes it seem like I’m trying to compete with someone else.”

The corners of Gideon’s lips twitched.

“So what? My woman must receive the best of everything.”

“...”

Nell was speechless.

“Alright then, do as you please. It’s getting late so I’m going to hang up soon.”

Gideon seized the time to chat for a little longer before finally ending the call.

In the following days, it was as if the film set had strangely turned into a competitive stage.

Nell always received similar gifts to the one Celine was given, just grandeur and more expensive.

For example, Nell received 9999 flowers when Jason sent Celine 999 flowers.

When Celine was given a diamond ring, Nell had a bigger, shinier, and more intricately-designed diamond ring delivered to her as well.

On the occasion when a haute-couture gown was sent to Celine, a world-class fashion designer arrived at the scene to personally customize an outfit for Nell.

People were speechless with astonishment.

What was going on? This was too lavish!

Was it not just a few days ago that people said Nell was getting in between Celine and Jason? Who was it then that was showering her with all these gifts?

The other person always defeated Jason with his gifts as if the former was not worried about offending the latter.

This meant that the other person was undoubtedly more powerful and influential than Jason.

Could it be Nell’s new boyfriend?

The possibilities were widely discussed.

This made Nell helpless.

However, although she felt ill at ease for being inspected by the others’ curious scrutiny, all of it seemed worth it upon witnessing Celine being humiliated and infuriated over and over again.

There had been a buzz of idle gossips among the production crew.

It was predominantly the few busybodies that enjoyed creating trouble out of nothing. They had treated Nell unkindly when Celine and Jason flaunted their love for each other.

Yet they turned green with envy after seeing how Nell was getting all the attention lately, especially since she had been gifted the massive century-old ruby two days ago.

An average person would not be able to get their hands on that — not even someone with a tremendous amount of wealth.

This kind of precious was normally collected by the ultra-rich but it had been given to Nell as a gift. It showed that not only was the sender of superior status but he was also extremely generous to Nell!

Only the slow-witted would have difficulty understanding what was going on.

For this reason, people immediately began to sway their favoritism toward Nell.

In the meantime, it further intensified the hostility toward Celine.

Celine, who had never been elbowed out in this way before, was instantly enraged.

Besides, since those rumors and mean remarks were made anonymous, she became even more frustrated.

Tonight, she heard that Nell had been given a set of first-grade red coral jewelry, with immaculate purity and workmanship. Apparently, it was considered antique as it was once used as a dowry for a princess from the Middle Ages.

Quite a number of them among the production crew had witnessed the gift and could not stop expressing their amazement at the wonder. Then, it became the topic of conversation throughout dinner.

Celine was sitting on one side with her takeout dinner. She secretly grew envious upon listening to the discussion.

Why should this b*tch be heavily doted on?

Although she had not witnessed the jewelry personally, she had seen it on the magazine some years ago when it went on auction.

It was exceptionally remarkable. It had been rumored that a mysterious figure bought it at the price of over three million.

That mysterious man must have been Gideon Leith.

He must be out of his mind to please a mistress with a set of jewelry that had cost over three million?!

Ha!

Ridiculous.

Celine should be satirical about this but somehow a disappointment materialized in her heart.

She never thought herself to be any less worthy than Nell but why was she not able to acquire such treasure?

In the end, it was the gossip that she found the most unbearable.

People regarded her as if she was a laughing stock. Every glance thrown in her direction was filled with sarcasm and contempt.

Celine was on the brink of collapsing.

She could not take it any longer tonight. Over the phone, she demanded Jason to deliver her something even more valuable.

When he heard of the request, he thought for a split second that she was out of her mind!

“Why do you need such extravagance? Haven’t I already given you several rings and necklaces?”

Celine clenched her teeth.

“How could those compare? You know what, Nell’s been getting all sorts of unique and exclusive gifts almost every day. She’s just been given a set of exquisite red coral jewelry today. All I want is a little more than that. Is that too much to ask for?”

Spoiled by the President Chapter 224 The Wrong Recipient Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 1980 Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Jason was speechless.

“This is all just so that you can compete with her?”

Celine bit her lips embarrassingly “Brother Jay, don’t worry, these gifts would not be good for nothing. I’m sure you’re familiar with the rules of this industry. I’m working in the same production team as her. If I’m constantly defeated by her, the other major brands will definitely choose to work with her instead of me. I’m just planning ahead for my future.”

Jason chuckled sarcastically.
