Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 391

Nell’s head hurt.

It felt like someone had cleaved her head open with an ax.

She was physically tired too, and there was a nagging pain in the back of her head.

Wrapped in a blanket, she groaned in agony. Instinctively, she reached out a hand to shake the person next to her and called with her eyes closed, “Gideon…”

A long time had passed but nobody answered.

Something was definitely wrong. Slowly, Nell opened her eyes.

The room was dimly lit. The minimalistic decor and the black and white stripes that formed part of the room’s design was totally unfamiliar to her.

Where was she?

Her memories gradually resurfaced in her mind. She vaguely recalled them as she scanned her surroundings. When she noticed a restaurant logo at the bedside table, a sudden realization occurred to her and she was jolted awake.

She was at Musi Hotel!

Appalled, Nell sat up immediately. It was then that she realized there was someone else on the bed.

Gregory Graham!

Her face went white as a sheet!

At the same time, Gregory woke up too and a wrinkle appeared between his eyebrows. At first, he was surprised to see the woman sitting in front of him, but then, he smiled.

“Little Seven, you didn’t have to resort to such drastic measures if you want to sleep with me. Spiking my drink and leading me here? Tsk tsk, you’re so direct, but I like it.”

“Shut up!”

Nell was furious.

She cupped her head and tried to think. After that, she turned her head swiftly to realize that her handbag and phone were still there.

She quickly picked up her phone and checked the message that Janet had sent to her earlier.

The text was still there and the number was undoubtedly hers.

She was still rather pale as her fingers trembled. She hesitated but eventually made the phone call.

The phone rang for a while before someone answered.

“Nelly.”

Janet’s voice appeared on the other end. She sounded pleasant and cheerful.

A dry sensation lingered in Nell’s throat. She paused for a few seconds before she asked, “Are you alright?”

“Me? Of course, I’m alright. What could happen to me?”

There was a hint of laughter in Janet’s voice — the complete opposite of how helpless she sounded earlier.

When Nell did not respond, Janet asked curiously, “Nelly, are you ok? What’s the matter?”

Nell chuckled nervously.

“Nothing.”

“In that case, why did you ask whether I was alright?”

“I…” She pursed her lips and continued after she swallowed, “I had a bad dream. It’s fine if you’re alright. I have something else to attend to. Bye.”

Janet listened and laughed. She also comforted Nell before she hung up.

The room then sank into an eerie silence.

Nell could sense the palpitation of her heart as she was struck with terror and confusion.

She squeezed her phone tightly and noticed that the several missed calls on her screen were from Gideon.

Until now, she did not understand what was going on.

However, she could predict the outcome.

Someone had set her up and led her into this trap to destroy her completely!

Janet’s phone call was a dud.

It was not rocket science. Janet’s phone number and the unclear voice message could be developed via certain software.

“Absolutely! Earlier, I saw her bringing a man into the room.”

Nell and Jason were shocked.

On the contrary, Gregory was grinning with his arms crossed, as if he was ready for a show!

Nell knew that the mastermind of this set-up had sent for these people to expose her.

She wondered how much buzz would be generated when there was a news piece about the young wife of the Leith Corporation’s President having a tryst with her ex.

Besides, she did not want to imagine how much the media would hype this discovery up!

People were already banging on the door, so there was no time to think. Nell simply kicked Jason back into the cupboard, then pulled Gregory along to the window and leaped out.

“Little Seven, we’re on the 15th floor. I like you but I’m not gonna die with you.”

Gregory was still hesitating when Nell dragged him along.

“Shut up and follow me!”

Then, she grabbed his collar and tugged him along while scrambling over to the balcony next door.

Gregory narrowed his eyes and shook his head.

“Pfft, how rough.”

The door was pushed open.

Aside from reporters, the hotel attendants. Barged in as well

However, they were baffled by the empty room.

The person who received the scoop and brought the crowd along was astonished as he muttered, “Impossible! I saw her going in with my own eyes! Where is she?”

At the same time, a noise came from the cupboard.

The crowd was stunned. Somebody approached the cupboard and opened it.

Just then, a man trussed up like a turkey rolled out of the cupboard.
