Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 43

Nell and Gideon entered the villa very quickly, and they were greeted with a wide lake after they walked past the rockery.

Under the night sky, sparkling ripples on the lake reflected the street lights and the moonlight. At one glance, the end of the lake could not be seen.

The doorman guided them up the stairs into the lobby, then they took the escalator before they arrived at the private room that was booked.

Moon Lake was the name of the private room, and it somewhat matched the artistic mood at that moment.

The private room’s interior was finely arranged. It had an antique design, but some details were blended with modern scientific designs, giving customers a more comfortable experience.

A huge window was situated due south in the room, and it faced the lake. By standing in the position, one would have a broader view of the lake than if one looked at it from downstairs. In fact, the lights on the stone arch bridge, which was a distance away, could also be seen. The dazzling lights and the refined scenery were simply spectacular.

Nell remarked with a smile, “The scenery here is beautiful. I like it a lot.”

Gideon curled his lips into a smile.

He had picked this place because he had researched her preferences.

Following that, the two of them got seated and ordered some dishes.

Again, the flavors of the dishes were to Nell’s liking.

She was shy because of how considerate the man was, and she always felt like she was taking advantage of him but could not repay him in any way.

All of a sudden, Nell thought about Simon’s case. She had searched it on the internet in the afternoon when she waited for the artistes to return.

Simon published a post on Weibo according to Nell’s instructions, and the response was great.

Although there were no exact results yet, Nell was confident that the case would be resolved perfectly as long as her plan was carried out smoothly.

Therefore, she assured Gideon. “You don’t have to worry about Simon’s case; I’ve already started to handle it, so it’ll be completely settled soon.”

Gideon looked at her with a smile and remarked softly, “Why do I feel like I’ve not only found a great wife, but also a great helper?”

Nell was startled.

A thought crossed her mind at that instant.

She did not say anything when she glanced at Gideon, but she secretly made a decision.

Once they were done eating, Nell excused herself to go to the toilet.

There was actually a toilet in the private room, but she was embarrassed to use it because it was not well soundproofed.

The public toilet was located at the end of the corridor, which was next to the elevator. After leaving the private room, Nell headed to the women’s public toilet with help from a waiter, who showed her the direction.

As soon as Nell came out of the toilet, she noticed familiar figures walking in her direction.

Feeling stunned for some reason, she took a step back.

With that, she happened to be hiding behind a dragon-patterned pillar at the toilet’s entrance.

Jason Morton and Celine Jennings were the ones who were walking toward her, and they were accompanied by a middle-aged man in black-framed glasses.

Nell recognized the man right away. He was their country’s famous A-list director—Gareth Leith.

The three of them conversed happily.

Gareth laughed and said, “Young Master Morton, I previously heard you have a beautiful wife, but I didn’t know who it is; I finally know that it’s Celine.”

Jason replied to him with a smile, “Director Leith, thank you for looking after Celine all these years. I look forward to a pleasant cooperation this time.”

“Of course. I watched Celine grow, and she has great potential. She’ll surely become the youngest best actress in this generation.”

Celine grinned. “Thank you for your blessings, Director Leith.”

“I worked on the script for ‘Hidden River: Ashley’ for years and it carries my blood and sweat, so you mustn’t let me down, Celine!”

“Director Leith, don’t worry, I’ll definitely do my best to interpret the character, and I won’t disappoint you.” Celine nodded obediently.

“That’s great… I’ll be at ease.”

The three of them eventually walked past Nell.

Nell was thin, and she wore a black outfit today, thus nobody noticed her when she hid behind the pillar, which was a dimly-lit spot.

She only walked out when the three people entered the elevator.

As she watched them leave, she furrowed her eyebrows a little.

Nell had read the script for ‘Hidden River: Ashley’ by chance in the past.

She immediately developed a strong liking for it.
