Chapter 665
Spoiled by the President
Before long, a colorful and fragrant meal was served.
The woman looked at the meal in front of her and asked Big Brother Nolan. âWhereâs yours?â
The man said indifferently, âIâve eaten.â
He sat down across from her and picked up a book and started to read.
Seeing him like this, the woman did not push the matter anymore and ate on her own.
After she finished the meal, the man got up to clean the dishes and greeted the employees in the restaurant before taking her away.
While walking on the road, the womanâs exceptionally stunning face and her unique temperament naturally attracted frequent glances from others.
She was clearly uncomfortable by the gazes and tugged lightly on the corner of the manâs coat, whispering, âBig Brother Nolan, they...â
The manâs face was somewhat cold. He looked over sharply at the people who were staring and snapped, âWhat are you looking at? Be careful that I donât gauge your eyeballs out.â
Most people who came here were either rich or noble.
Even if ordinary people were rich, they might not be able to come here.
Therefore, when the man said this, there was naturally someone who became unhappy.
âWhoâs looking at you? Do you have gold on your face? What are you making such a fuss about? The pretty lady didnât even say anything but youâre out here snapping...â
The person had not even finished talking when the man surnamed Nolanâs face went completely cold.
He made a move to step forward to confront the person, but was gently stopped by the woman.
She frowned slightly, seemingly reluctant to argue with people in public, and pulled the man back while whispering, âForget it.â
Then, she turned to the middle-aged man across the street with an understanding smile on her face.
âSir, my friend was only stepping forward to protect me. Iâm sorry if heâs offended you in any way with his words.â
The middle-aged man was not an unreasonable person. He just did not like the overbearing attitude of the man called Nolan.
Hearing the woman say that, he immediately smiled as well.
He chuckled and said, âNo harm, no foul. Since youâve said so, I wonât argue. May I ask for the ladyâs name? Why havenât I seen you anywhere before?â
The man surnamed Nolan said coldly, âThere are so many women in the world. Have you seen all of them?â
The other man immediately choked.
Seeing the situation about to turn sour again, the woman quickly pulled the man surnamed Nolan behind her and smiled gently at the other man. âI wasnât here before. I just came back from abroad, so of course weâve never met before. My name is Emilia Jareau. Itâs nice to meet you.â
The man immediately smiled upon getting her name.
âEmilia Jareau, what a nice name. Ms. Jareau, my name is Gerald Elmer. Iâm the general manager of Elmer Corporation. Hereâs my business card.
Itâs a pleasure to meet you.â
He took out his business card and handed it to Emilia.
Emilia did not refuse it. She even looked at it carefully after receiving it before placing it in her bag.
âI still have something to do, so I wonât bother Mr. Elmer anymore.â
Mr. Elmer smiled. âItâs no bother at all. By the way, Iâm staying in the room over there. You can come over to play if youâre free. Itâs fate that we managed to meet, so we can always be friends.â
Emilia nodded and did not agree nor disagree.
Mr. Elmer was also a tactful person and did not say anything more after seeing this.
The two waved goodbye.
Only after seeing the man leave did the man surnamed Nolan snort coldly. âA weasel like him definitely doesnât have any good intentions!â
Emilia looked at him and sighed.
âIâm sorry, Big Brother Nolan. Itâs my fault for causing you trouble.â
Her words immediately caused him to frown.
His expression sank. âWhat are you talking about? Between us, thereâs no need to talk about causing trouble for each other.â
Emilia smiled faintly and walked forward, saying, âAll these years, you stayed by my side and didnât go anywhere, taking care of me and protecting me. If it werenât for you, Iâd have disappeared more than twenty years ago. How would I still be alive today?â
As she spoke, she saw a small flower by the side of the road and stopped. She reached out and touched the tiny petals gently.
Gazing at the delicate flower, it was as if she was not looking at the flower at all but at something illusory in the air.
âSometimes, I wonder what would have happened if you didnât save me back then. If I hadnât survived, would you have been happier and more relaxed these past twenty years?â
Spencer Nolanâs expression immediately darkened.
He stepped forward and grabbed Emiliaâs hand, and said sternly, âSo thatâs what youâve been thinking in your heart? Are you blaming me for saving you? Or is it that you still have that Foster guy in your heart? Hasnât he hurt you enough? Why is it that your heart still favors him after all this time?â
Emilia was startled. She looked at the furious man in front of her, somewhat stunned.
She said softly, âBig Brother Nolan, thatâs not what I meant. I just...â
âEnough!â
Spencer suddenly thundered in anger. He looked at Emilia with great disappointment and said, âDonât lie to me again. Do you think I donât know? Just now, in the peach forest, you met two youngsters. The man looks a lot like him, doesnât he?
âWere you reminded of that man because you saw him? Thatâs why youâve been unsettled ever since. Itâs because you simply havenât gotten over him yet!â
Emilia pursed her lips and fell silent.
She did not agree, but she did not disagree either.
A red mark formed on her white wrist where it was being held by Spencer.
Spencer looked at her, his chest rising and falling heavily from anger.
It was not until he caught a glimpse of the red mark he caused on her wrist that he seemed to suddenly come back to his senses as if burnt.

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 His face fell and he immediately let go of her.
âYour hand...â
âIâm fine.â
Emilia pulled her hand back at breakneck speed.
She was wearing a windbreaker made of tulle, and the sleeves were very long. When she withdrew her hand, he could no longer see the red mark.
Her face was expressionless and she did not look at him, only staring at the distance.
He did not know if it was because she did not want to see him or whether she was escaping from something else.
She said softly, âBig Brother Nolan, thank you for bringing me back to China this time. As for what you said, thereâs nothing of the sort. Youâre overthinking it.â
Then, she suddenly lowered her head and coughed twice.
As soon as Spencer heard her cough, his heart immediately tightened as endless regrets welled up.
He should not have lost his temper at her.
Over the years, he thought that he had cultivated himself well.
As long as he could stay by her side, he was willing to restrain all of the sharpness and temper deep in his heart and never let them out again.
