Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 1069

A deep-set fury illuminated underneath it as Gideon narrowed his eyes.

Not understanding what they had just heard, confusion filled Gregory and Vickie’s faces.

Nell read Gideon’s face and immediately understood it all. Her heart sank. It was obvious that he knew what Jeff was saying.

This also meant that Jeff had been telling her the truth earlier on. Gideon had been hiding things from her.

At this moment, Gideon knew that he could no longer keep this a secret. In a cold voice, he replied, “You mean the Arcane Jade?”

“Yes! Hand them over or I’ll kill her right in front of your eyes!” Jeff retorted. He consequently raised his hand and wrapped his palm around Nell’s neck.

Her delicate neck laid in the mercy of his grip. Thin and slender like white reeds, it looked as though he could snap it into half with just one move.

Squinting his eyes, Gideon instinctively shouted, “Don’t you touch her!”

Somehow, Nell started to feel bad. She shook her head and said, “Don’t care about me, Gideon. He won’t do anything to me, so just leave.”

Her sentence broke off into the air as Jeff tightened his grasp. Unable to breathe, her face became white as he continued to strangle her.

Seeing Nell this way made Gideon feel as if his heart was being squeezed tightly. He wanted to rush over to her side to free her from this torture and get her out of this place.

However, he perfectly knew what Jeff was capable of doing. He knew that if he rushed over this instance, he would not be able to save her and she might lose her life instead. He hated himself for not being able to do anything.

Gideon stood frozen in his tracks as he thought about this.

Seeing that he had finally threatened them, Jeff let out an evil smirk. He lowered his voice to say, “This is your last chance to hand over the four pieces of the Arcane Jade, Gideon. Do it now or I’ll kill her with my bare hands. Let’s see if your guns are faster than my fists.”

Gideon did not speak. On the other side, Gregory and Vickie were still shocked by this revelation.

Four pieces of the Arcane Jade? What was he talking about?

They had only retrieved one piece from their trip to Shennan.

Since when did they own four pieces?

Jeff stared anxiously into Gideon’s eyes. As he did that, so did Gregory and Vickie.

Lowering his voice, Gregory whispered, “What’s going on, Gideon? Are you hiding something from us?”

Gideon did not say anything as he locked his gaze on Nell. Looking into her eyes, he seemed to understand what she was thinking as despair filled his heart.
