Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 406

Nell was naturally familiar with the route to Leith Corporation and with that, she went straight to the office building. Some people she was familiar with waved and nodded in greeting, while others who were not familiar with her began to whisper when they saw her holding a lunchbox and pressing the button for the 38th floor on the elevator.

The 38th floor was the President’s floor. Nell’s identity was no longer a secret, and everyone wondered if she was here to bring food to the President.

The President had been a diamond bachelor for so many years, and even his past with Stephanie Garrett was just stories that the media and paparazzi caught on to. He had never admitted to any of them.

However, he was so easily taken by this woman. Although everyone was polite and respectful on the surface, there was still some envy and a hint of jealousy in their hearts.

Nell felt the eyes on her back and sighed secretly in discomfort. Fortunately, the nature of her work meant that she did not have to sit in the company every day. Otherwise, even if she did not drown in the drool of these women, she would be killed by their gazes.

When the elevator arrived on the 16th floor, the door opened with a ‘ding’ and Matthew Starks walked in. He exclaimed in surprise upon seeing her.

“Young Madam, why are you here?”

Nell quietly hid the lunchbox behind her back and smiled dryly.

“I was free and there was nothing to do at home, so I’m here to look around.”

Matthew revealed an expression of realization.

“You must be here for the President. He’s in the office. He hasn’t had lunch yet!”

Nell nodded, pretending to be aloof.

At the sight, Matthew smiled in his heart but did not dare to show it on his face. He could only pretend that he did not see the lunchbox that she was hiding behind her back.

Before long, the elevator arrived on the 38th floor.

The elevator doors opened and Matthew exited first before holding the door for her. He said in a gentlemanly manner, “Be careful.”

Nell walked out and the two of them stood in front of the president’s office.

“President, this is the information for the last three months from the planning department that you asked for.”

Gideon had his head lowered and was writing something. Without lifting his head, he hummed in acknowledgment and pointed to the bookcase full of documents next to him. “Put it over there.”

“Understood.”

Matthew put the report over there before saying, “Is there anything else, Sir?”

Gideon waved his hand.

That meant that there was nothing more. Matthew tactfully withdrew and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.

Nell held the lunchbox and stood there quietly, not making a sound or any disturbing movements. Instead, she looked around the office that she did not often come to.

The office was very large with floor-to-ceiling glass on two sides and hence it was particularly well-lit.

His desk was on the left-hand corner farther away from the door, next to a large bookcase filled with various kinds of books.

To the right was a meeting area where a huge projector curtain took up the entire wall. Nell had seen him talk with several foreigners there before.

Behind the meeting area was the rest area, with a sofa, a refrigerator, a water dispenser, and even a separate cubicle for a washroom.

Gideon was very focused on his work. If he had not lifted his hand to get his cup and found that it was empty, he would not have noticed her arrival.

“Nelly?”

He looked up, startled. “What are you doing here?”

Nell walked over to put down his lunch box and took the empty cup from his hand before refilling it and giving it back to him.

Then, she said awkwardly, “Aunt Joyce told me to bring you lunch.”

Gideon looked at the lunchbox on the table and raised his eyebrows. “Aunt Joyce told you to come?”

Nell nodded obediently.

Her expression looked so sincere that it could not have been true.

“I didn’t eat the food that Aunt Joyce cooked today.”

It was only after a long time had passed that she came up with such a lame reason.

Gideon saw this and very kindly handed her the chopsticks. “Why don’t you try it?”

Nell quickly waved her hand. “No, no, I’m fine.”

What a joke! She had tasted it when it came out of the pot and thought that it turned out alright, but she did not know whether he liked it or not.

His stomach was used to eating all kinds of delicacies, so she did not know if he could adapt to her kind of little home-cooked dishes.

She watched as Gideon finished every morsel before wiping his mouth with a paper napkin. “It tastes good. Tell Aunt Joyce to make lunch more often.”

The taut strings around Nell’s heart loosened and she immediately smiled.

She nodded. “Okay.”

Gideon was delighted at her smiling face. Was this a disguised attempt by this woman to please him?

He suddenly pulled her in and kissed her on the lips before she could react.

The kiss was really not wonderful.

He had just finished eating and his mouth still smelled like food, so kissing her filled her mouth with the same taste as well.

A little annoyed, Nell pushed him away, but he naturally did not budge an inch.

With a fierce surge in her heart, she parted her teeth and bit down on his lip.

The man hissed and let go, and the tooth mark on his lip started to ooze blood.

He lowered his head and looked at her with eyes filled with fire as he said hoarsely, “Little minx.”
