Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 489

Gideon did not deny it. Instead, he kept his happy smile and nodded pretentiously.

“Yup, I only bully you.”

He said while playing with her fingers as the sunlight illuminated the room, which made the room warm and it relaxed their minds and body.

Feeling a sense of uneasiness all over her body, Nell smiled shyly and pushed him away. “Stop, it tickles!”

“WIfey, is your body getting better now?”

Nell frowned and asked, “What do you mean by getting better?”

Gideon pulled her over abruptly.

“You...”

Nell’s face flushed red. She wanted to stand up but was pressed down by her husband.

The man nestled his head into her neck and sniffed her fragrant hair. The moment seemed peaceful and mellow.

“Don’t go. Just let me hold you quietly like this for a little while.”

Gideon spoke lightly. His tone was gentle and their surroundings were warm and quiet.

Nell stiffened her back and stopped moving. She hugged her man’s shoulders lovingly.

Since she was pregnant, Gideon had been taking care of her and they only had sex a handful of times.

After a while, Gideon lifted his head and used his long fingers to lift her chin so she could face him.

“What were you thinking about just now? You seemed unhappy.”

Nell twirled her hair and muttered, “Nothing much.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

Gideon’s eyes narrowed and Nell finally spoke the truth under his gaze.

“Gale Shelby came over this morning and told me about the Shelby family.”

Gideon was shocked.

He pressed his lips together and asked, “What did he say?”

Nell then reiterated what Gale had told her earlier today.

“I’m quite hesitant because I don’t want to get involved in the Shelby family’s matters. Honestly, it’s just too complicated and it goes against my values. I just want to live a simple life.

“I also don’t feel any sort of familial love for them. I’ll feel resentful if I did something for them and they probably wouldn’t like it either.”

Gideon snickered.

“Have you never thought about what taking over the Bauhinia Clan represents? The amount of power and wealth you’ll gain...”

Nell was dumbfounded.

She stared at Gideon and blinked her clear, watery eyes.

“I never thought about it. Besides, I never wanted wealth or power. All I want is you!”

Nell then flashed her brightest smile. Under the afternoon sun, she looked like a glowing elf. She reached out and put her arms around Gideon’s neck.

“I have you and our child. I can do whatever I like and act in the movies I want; all this is enough. I don’t want any more than this. Having too much means more responsibility and more sacrifices. I don’t wish for my life to be like that. I just hope that we’ll live a simple, warm, and happy life.”

Gideon felt his heart tremble.

He immediately grabbed the back of her head and kissed her deeply.

This kiss carried countless complex feelings — their turbulent love and those indescribable joy.

Nell mumbled and shrieked.
