Edward worked overtime in thepany for a few days. Today, he finished his work and left thepany after work. Suddenly, he had no direction to go back. He didn’t want to go home, nor did he want to go out to y with friends. He went to the school of the kindergarten in Noelle for Nathan. He knew that if he stayed there, he would see Nelissa.
For three days and eight hours, his phone never rang from Nelissa’s side. Ever since that day, he and she had cut off everything cleanly. They didn’t look for him again, but instead, they were in pairs. Theyughed happily at Jordan!
At that moment, Edward looked at them from a distance of a road in the car. He only felt extremely dazzling. It was as if he was far away from them, feeling a deep sense of failure.
Edward had been blessed by God since he was a child. He could do whatever he wanted. Whether it was studying or his career, he was absolutely a sessful person. No one had ever made him suffer, so he was proud and arrogant, ignoring everything.
All his failures and embarrassment were attributed to Nelissa.
She didn’t want to be with him. From the beginning, he could see that he chose to ignore her refusal. He was thinking about how to get this woman and make her submit to him. He used means to get close to her to make her unable to avoid him, so he had to pester her.
For the first time, he couldn’t forget a woman. Nelissa was an unforgettable dream buried in his heart. He thought that if he possessed her again and saw her submit to him, he would wake up.
But the more she was fascinated, the more she fell in love with her. She was reluctant to be cruel to her and could not bear to see her cry. She would always be soft-hearted to her and wanted to monopolize her.
What he wanted was not only Nelissa’s body, but also her future. He wanted her to follow him for the rest of her life. He was willing to give up the marriage that was beneficial to him for this, although it would shake his career, and even if many people would object in the future, he would not hesitate.
He was very greedy and had reached the point of being stubborn and crazy. It was not enough for him to simply get Nelissa to satisfy him. He still wanted to tie her up for the rest of her life. He would be good to her and responsible for her. He would not let her be bullied again. She just needed to love him.
But when he was in deep love, she wanted him to stop and draw a clear line with him.
Edward was driving the car. The dim lights in front of him blurred his vision, and his corneas ached. He had only slept for three hours in a row for three days in a row. His headache was so bad that he was about to explode. His mind was full of too many things. Thinking of Nelissa and Jordan together, his chest rose and fell heavily, and even his breathing was painful.
Edward’s eyes were red, and he was about to copse.
At eight o’clock in the evening, before Eliza got off work, Sophie came.
Sophie observed that the kitchen was clean. Eliza didn’t make dinner. She held her chest and asked Eliza with a sullen face, “Where is Edward? Isn’t heing back for dinner tonight?”
Eliza answered cautiously, “Young Mr. Hales hasn’t been back for a few days. He has to pour out everything the next day after dinner. I think it’s a waste, so I didn’t cook.”
Sophie gave Eliza a cold look. She crossed her arms around her chest and opened the refrigerator with the other hand. There were few ingredients inside.
Sophie was already in a bad mood when she didn’t see Edward. At this moment, she didn’t like anything. Eliza hit the gun and said, “There’s nothing in the refrigerator. What are you doing for Edward to eat? He hasn’t been back for a few days. Did you think he moved to another woman’s house? Edward gave you a lot of family money every month. How much did you pocket from him? Do you believe that I will find someone to check your ount and sue you for theft?”
Eliza, an old woman with low education, knew nothing about stealing. She knew nothing but cooking. She was flustered by Sophie at once. “Miss Bailey, I really didn’t steal money. Young Mr. Hales likes fresh dishes. Usually, when hees back to eat, the refrigerator is full. He hasn’te back these days, so I didn’t go to the supermarket to buy vegetables. This dish is put in the refrigerator for a day, and it won’t be fresh the next day. I’m thinking, when Young Mr. Haleses back, I’ll go to the supermarket to buy new dishes. Otherwise, I have to clean it once a day and waste more money.”
Sophie was toozy to listen to Eliza’s exnation. She had always looked down on poor people without education.
She sat down on the sofa and said, “When you leaveter, show me what’s in your bag. Edward is a man and doesn’t care about these details. But I’m his woman, so I have to help him keep an eye on the people around him.”
Eliza was very angry. She didn’t steal money, nor did she steal anything from the vi. She was old, but she was still seen as a thief by Sophie. Young Mr. Hales never cared about her and let her y freely!
“Did Edward say when she would be back?” Sophie turned on the TV and asked Eliza. It was already past eight o’clock. She knew that the meeting at the Han’s had ended. Ying should be off work by now.
Eliza said angrily, “Young Mr. Hales won’te back tonight. Miss Bailey, you don’t have to wait anymore!”
Sophie looked at her coldly. “Where did he go?”
Eliza said irresponsiblely, “I don’t know. But it’s time for me to get off work. Please go back. When Mr. Hales is not at home, no one can spend the night at his house.”
Sophie paused and put down the remote. “Are you driving me away?”
“I don’t dare.” Eliza lowered her head. She knew that if Young Mr. Hales and Sophie got married in the future, she would lose her job. If she lost her job, she would lose it, but she still had to work hard. How could she bear it at such an old age?
With a faint smile, Sophie got up and came to Eliza’s side. “I was a little strict with you just now, but I was just thinking about Edward. He was busy with work all day and went home, so he naturally had to rest and eat well. Since he didn’te back for dinner tonight, I’ll take it as if I just misunderstood you. But as an elder, you shouldn’t argue with me. If you’re more broad-minded, it’ll be good for youter.”
“If you want to get off work, then get off work. I want to wait here for a while. I have something to tell him.”
Sophie was good at teaching students, so she was good at telling right from wrong. She was good at grabbing people.
Eliza didn’t understand these things. She just felt that Sophie changed her face as soon as she said it. The pleasant words were from her, and the bad words were from her, which confused her.
“Aren’t you leaving yet?” Sophie asked, her beautiful face cold.
Eliza was in a dilemma for a moment, and Sophie said with a faint smile, “If I can’t wait for him, I will naturally leave. I won’t stay overnight. My family also has a closed door.”
“Okay.” Eliza nodded honestly. She knew that Sophie was the female principal of the Haleston City Private Academy. Although her character was not very good, she was born in a famous family and had read many books. She should have some quality.
Eliza took off the apron she was wearing at work, took the leather bag, and left the vi. On the way, she made a phone call to the male owner, Edward, and nned to report it. However, the voice message had been turned off, so there was nothing she could do.
Sophie stayed in Edward’s house until nearly 11 o’clock in the night, but she still didn’t see Edward go home.
She scratched the leather of the sofa and was very angry and jealous. She held her mobile phone in her right hand and made countless phone calls to Edward, but she still told him that her phone had been turned off. She wondered if what Yvonne said was true. Was Edward really having an affair with Yvonne?
The two of them were meeting somewhere else!
In the end, it was her mother who called her and urged her to go home. It was almost 12 hourster when she left. She knew that Edward would not go home tonight…
It was 12 o’clock in the morning.
Edward drove to Mount Hales Vi, which was halfway up the mountain far away from the city center. He didn’t go back to the vi in the city center. He didn’t want to see anyone for the time being and wanted to stay quiet.
After parking the car in the big garage, Edward entered the vi and turned on the lights. The room was so bright that it was blinding to his eyes. He reached out to rub the swollen corners of his eyes, opened the refrigerator in the kitchen, and took a can of beer. He raised his head and poured it into his mouth. The moist water slipped across his Adam’s apple, which made him look wild and sexy.
Edward finished a can of beer at once. He crushed the can of beer with his slender and strong hands, threw it into the clean trash can, turned around, and went out of the kitchen.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
From the corner of her eyes, she saw arge object in front of therge French window in the living room. It was wrapped in a spotless white cloth, upying arge area.
Edward walked over, grabbed a corner of the white cloth with his noble hand, and slowly pulled it down. It was a noble white piano. The person who called him just now might be Andrew, who told him that the piano he wanted had been sent to his home.
The day before he came back from his business trip to Bekki, Edward bought this piano and bought it. He had no time to bid for it and asked an acquaintance to rece it. No matter how much it cost, he had to buy it. Finally, he bought it at a sky-high price.
It was a joke that even a famous piano yer didn’t need such an expensive piano.
He didn’t take it seriously. He didn’tck money to give his woman the best and love for her. Even a famous piano yer couldn’tpare with Nelissa’s finger in his heart.
In just a few days, no one could give her this piano.
Edward sat down in front of the white piano. His ck formal suit had a strong visual contrast. His slender fingers yed on the ck and white piano keys. The intermittent sound of the zither was fast and slow. In the spacious vi, it was more lonely than loneliness. Only the sound of the zither was apanied by loneliness.
Gradually, the surroundings quieted down. Edwardid prone on the piano, his handsome face tired. He felt sick and weak.
At 10 o’clock in the morning the next day.
Nelissa received a call from Andrew in thepany. She took a deep breath and told herself to be calm. Since Andrew called her, he should be looking for her to talk about business.
She picked up the phone. “Hello.”
Andrew asked, “Miss Nelissa, is Young Mr. Hales with you? Could you please ask him to turn on his mobile phone?”
Nelissa’s heart skipped a beat. Whenever she thought of Edward, she would feel a dull pain. She deliberately ignored him and said to Andrew, “I’m in thepany now. He’s not here.”
“Eh?” Andrew was confused and said, “That’s strange. I couldn’t get in touch with Young Mr. Hales sincest night. He didn’te back to thepany this morning. His mobile phone was turned off all the time, so I couldn’t find him anywhere.”
Nelissa was very nervous. Was the ck luxury carst night really Edward’s? “Go to his house. He should be at home.”
“I went there. Eliza said that Young Mr. Hales didn’te homest night. Oh, maybe it’s because of your piano. He went to Mount Hales’s vi.” However, Andrew was still puzzled. “Why didn’t Young Mr. Hales bring Nelissa with him?”
