Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 339

Nell pursed her lips. She gave it a thought and agreed.

“Alright, come in.”

Stephanie parked her car behind Nell’s, then got into the passenger seat of Nell’s car.

Nell felt awkward. It was her second time running into Stephanie’s and Justin’s business.

If it happened twice, it was no longer a coincidence. Nell had bumped into the couple twice. She would not have believed it was by chance either, let alone Stephanie.

“Miss Garrett, what do you want to tell me?”

Although she knew it, Nell still asked the question.

Instead of regarding Nell, Stephanie stared ahead coolly and said, “Did you hear what we said earlier?”

“Cough!”

Nell coughed awkwardly and explained, “I didn’t mean to, really. I was about to drive away but I didn’t expect you to be there.”

Stephanie looked at her in a jeering manner.

“So, you heard everything?”

Nell was speechless.

She could not stop herself from scowling after the way Stephanie spoke to her. She answered, “Fine, I admit I heard everything, but don’t worry. Your business has nothing to do with me, so I won’t tell all.”

A slight frown appeared on Stephanie’s face. After that, she uttered, “It’d better be this way.”

Nell was helpless.

Stephanie continued. “Actually, we aren’t a couple but he keeps bothering me. You’re a woman too, Nell, and you should understand how I feel. I don’t like him at all and I don’t want to give birth to this child, so nobody else must learn about our matter.”

Nell forced a grimace.

“In that case, why stay with him?”

Stephanie paused.

Her expression changed slightly, but she did not reply.

She took a deep breath and eyed Nell firmly. “I owe you one if you keep this secret for me. Next time, if you need any help from me, just ask. After all… You get what I mean.”

Nell smiled.

“No need for threats. Anyway, you can’t threaten me.”

Stephanie was puzzled.

Nell rested an arm by the car window in a carefree manner and looked at Stephanie in a judgmental manner.

“I keep this secret because I have nothing to do with you. I’m not interested in gossiping about your sex life either, that’s all. As for the rest, please forgive me for being forward, Miss Garrett, but you’re overthinking it.”

Stephanie’s expression took a gloomy turn.

She disliked Nell’s emotionally detached attitude. She felt that she was trampled by Nell’s lofty character.

She was the heiress of the Garrett family whereas the woman in front of her was just a nouveau riche who came from a small place. She became who she was today because of Gideon, so what right did she have to speak to her in this manner?

Still, Stephanie’s refined upbringing influenced her reaction.

No matter how displeased she was, she did not show it.

She merely nodded.

“Alright, since you say so, I feel relieved. Nonetheless, I owe you a favor and I’ll repay you one day.”

Nell grinned and kept quiet.

Once they had an understanding, Stephanie did not linger and got out of the car.

“Goodbye, Ms. Jennings.”
