Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 252

Looks of concern could be seen on Stephanie’s gentle face.

“Although you’re confident about this, it’s not foolproof. I’m only worried that if someone discovers you here, they will recriminate and say that you all are colluding.

The Leith family is extremely sensitive, and public opinions can be horrible. Unclear speeches can easily become extreme populism and exploited by others which will eventually act as a leverage to shift the dynamics of the entire Leith family."

Nell was silent for a while.

She looked down and after giving some thought, said suddenly, “You seem to be very concerned about the Leith family.”

Stephanie was stunned.

She could not keep up with Nell's thoughts.

It took her a moment to react and there was an unnatural look flashed across her face.

“Gideon and I grew up together, Grandma Leith and Aunt Leith treat me really well, of course, I don’t want to see anything bad happening to the Leith family.”

Nell nodded.

She thought of a short moment and suddenly asked again, “I heard that both of you were engaged? And apparently...in a relationship?”

Stephanie’s face turned red instantly when she heard that.

She was not bad-looking but was not considered gorgeous and her skin was as white as snow. So when she blushed and lowered her head, she appeared timid.

“Yes, we were in a relationship before.”

After a while, she quickly explained, “But don’t get me wrong. Although our relationship was very good, that was when we were young. Gideon and I broke up five years ago, and I don’t think there’ll be anything between us anymore.”

Nell nodded.

“Hmm, I know.”

Stephanie was stunned again.

Nell glanced at the sky and realized that it was late, so she said, “I’m going in now, are you still going to chill here?”

Stephanie forced a smile. “I’ll stay for a while.”

“Okay, the seaside breeze is quite chilly, you take care of your body and don’t stay out for too long.”

“I know, thanks for your concern.”

Nell did not reply. She just stood up and left.

Very quickly, news about both of them meeting in private was made known to Gideon.

At that moment, Nell had just finished her bath and as she walked out of the bathroom, she saw a man walking in with a stern face.

She was slightly worried. “What is it?”

“Stephanie looked for you?”

Nell reacted and laughed blankly. “Yes, why are you so nervous?”

“What did she say to you?”

Nell rolled her eyes.

Seeing the man’s nervousness, she felt a sudden disgust.

She thoughtfully said, “She said that you’re her ex-boyfriend and had a really good relationship. Although you’ve broken up, there may still be a chance in the future.”

Gideon was speechless.

Nell sighed.

“Sigh! Do you think that I’m snatching her love away?”

Gideon looked ferocious. “Nonsense! I have nothing to do with her and I have never dated her, it was only the family elders’ wishful thinking.”

Nell shook her head, “Gideon, a man cannot be so irresponsible, she has already assumed that you’re her boyfriend but you say that you’ve never dated her, why does this make me feel you’re a scumbag?”

She even patted his shoulder.

“Don’t you worry, I’m a very generous person. I’m not going to be calculative about what happened five years ago so you can be honest with me.”

Gideon was angry until it hurt.

“I’ve already said what I had to, don’t change the topic. Besides this, what else did Stephanie say to you?”

Nell’s face froze.
