Chapter 701
Spoiled by the President
Gregory Graham: â...â
He fell silent as if she just checkmated him.
After a long pause, he broke out in a soft chuckle.
His singsong voice contained a hint of amusement. âLittle Seven has grown up and become corrupted by someone.â
Nell waited.
For some reason, the more this person knew she hated it when he spoke to her in this tone, the more he deliberately did it.
It was almost like he simply enjoyed riling her up.
She wrinkled her forehead, sensing a headache coming on.
âGregory Graham, believe it or not, I will go back to China right this instant. The deal is over! Letâs break this up and go our separate ways!â
Gregory Graham hid a smile. âWho asked you to learn so many bad things, but yet you donât allow me to mention it?â
After a few moments, he sensed that the woman was genuinely getting angry, so he stopped teasing her and changed the subject.
âFine, I promise you. As long as you help me win first place in the Flying Competition, I will tell you everything I know about what happened nine years ago.â
Nell exhaled a lengthy breath.
âFine, deal.â
âDeal.â
After she was done negotiating with Gregory Graham, Nell hung up the phone.
She got up and poured herself a glass of water, then walked out onto the balcony. Looking at the bustling night scenery of Lin City, her eyes fluttered gently.
Nine years!
Compared to the first time she came to this place, just another half a year and it would be a whole decade.
Meanwhile, from an eighteen-year-old girl, she had blossomed into a mother of two.
The suspicion that haunted her mind had never been demystified.
Nell would never forget that one fateful day nine years ago. She woke up and found herself on a white surgical bed.
Next to her was Gregory Graham, Old K, and a few others.
They looked at her and told her that she had been rescued from the sea by them.
She suffered massive injuries. The doctors spent several hours operating on her, and she had been unconscious for many days before finally waking up.
Nell tried very hard to recall everything she had been through before that.
However, she could not remember.
It was like someone had dug a big hole in her memory. The only memories she could recall was her life in China.
As for what happened when she arrived in Country F, she could not remember a thing.
The lag between being in China and coming to Country F was three whole months.
Three months was a long time. A lot could happen in that period. Nevertheless, those memories seemed to have vanished from her brain into thin air.
She did not know where she went, what she did, or what she went through.
It was like a building that was disjointed in the middle.
Although her life appeared peaceful and calm at the moment, deep inside her heart, this incident was like a time bomb. It could explode at any moment.
Therefore, she wanted to know the truth.
Nell closed her eyes, allowing the night breeze to caress her face, enjoying its coolness.
After a long time, she opened her eyes again. Her gaze was completely clear.
With that, she walked back inside the house.
The next day.
Despite sleeping late the previous night, Nell woke up early.
When Nancy Murray knocked on her door and came in, Nell had already woken up and was washing up.
Seeing Nancy come in, Nell gestured to her to take a seat. After she was done washing up and changing, she asked Nancy, âDid you sleep well last night?â
Nancy smiled and said, âNot bad. This place is so quiet, it feels nice.â
Nell smiled. Reaching out to pack a few necessities into her bag, she said, âLetâs eat breakfast, then go to the training ground immediately afterward.â
âOkay.â
Nancy nodded.
Once Nell was done packing, the two of them walked out.
As usual, they ate at the hotelâs restaurant on the second floor.
After breakfast, they headed straight to the training ground.
The front desk was still manned by the same person who greeted them the day before. The moment he saw Nell, his eyes brightened.
âHi, Nell, youâre here.â
Nell smiled and nodded. She told him, âI still want the same car as yesterday.â
âOkay!â
He found the key and handed it to her. Then, he smiled nervously, âUmm... Can I ask you something?â
Nellâs eyebrow rose. âYes?â
âUmm... Can I get your autograph?â
As he spoke, he took out a pen and a small notebook.
Nell was surprised. She did not expect that this was his question.
She could not help but laugh. âIâm not a celebrity, why would you want my autograph?â
Despite saying that, she did not want to turn him down, so she still took the notebook and the pen from him. However, she did not hurry to write.
The other party scratched his head embarrassedly. âYou might not be one right now, but I feel that you will surely become one. At the very least, youâll become a star in the racing arena. Donât assume I donât know. Iâm guessing that you came here for the Flying Competition, right? Based on your abilities, you will surely cinch the first place. Once you win the competition, youâll become a star. Then it wonât be easy for me to get your autograph.
Iâm just thinking ahead, preparing the roof before it rains.â
The other party was obviously fluent in Chinese, judging from his usage of proverbs.
For a moment, Nell did not know whether to laugh or cry. In any case, she had no intention of sneaking around this time.
Therefore, she did not hide the truth. Nodding, she said, âYouâre right, we came here for the competition.â
Subsequently, she signed her name with a few strokes of the pen. She passed the notebook back to him and smiled. âThank you for your auspicious prediction. If I really win the first place, I will come back and thank you.â
The other person smiled shyly and nodded.
Following that, he watched as they walked towards the training ground.
The goal that Nell set for herself today was to practice for eight hours and strive to perfect her turns.
As usual, Nancy Murray watched her from the side, occasionally passing her some water or a towel.
At noon, the two of them settled for a simple lunch there. They rested for two hours, then continued in the afternoon.
Perhaps because the afternoons were less busy, the employee who greeted them earlier also came by.
He sat beside Nancy Murray and watched Nell.
âAre you from China?â He asked her.
Nancy turned to look at him and nodded. âYes.â
The man smiled. âMy mother is also Chinese, so we are semi-comrades.â
Nancy Murray was astonished by his revelation.

ï¤Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 However, upon closer look, some of his features did seem to possess Chinese genetics. Thus, Nancy simply nodded.
âOh, I see.â
She was not skilled at making conversation, especially with strangers, so her replies were short and curt.
If it had been another person, this conversation would have completely died down.
On the other hand, this employee obviously had no such issues.
Although his personality was different from Sam, both of them had one thing in common, which was their ability to make conversation.
Regardless of Nancy Murrayâs cold responses, he did not seem to care. He said to her, âActually, I know your friend. What I said before was incorrect.
She doesnât have to wait, she is already a celebrity, isnât she?â
