Chapter 1168


    Edwards walked to the door of the bedroom and saw that all the lights in the bedroom had been


    turned on. On the huge bed, there were all sorts of cloth dolls. Emma was wearing a set of milky-


    white pajamas, with a little ball of hair tied around her head that spanned across a long distance.


    Many of her yful hair had fallen out, outlining her exquisite and beautiful face. She is giving her


    dolls a lesson. Next to a small drawing board, she is holding a brush, seriously painting a small


    flower.


    "Emma..." When Edwards saw this messy bed of toys, he immediately felt troubled.


    "Daddy!" Emma suddenly raised her head, threw the brush and drawing board aside, got off the bed


    quickly, and ran over to him.


    Edwards squatted down, and gently hugged his daughter in his arms. He curiously asked her:


    "What are you doing?"


    "I was waiting for you. Why didn''t youe back earlier? Is it because Mummy is not home that


    you''re disobedient?" Emma pouted her small mouth and started to teach her dad a lesson like a


    little adult.


    Edwards could not help butugh out loud, "You must keep this a secret for father, and you must


    not tell Mummy or else father will be scolded!"


    "I''ve been waiting for you for a long time, and I''m about to fall asleep. Daddy, go take a shower, I


    have to finish this drawing lesson for my dolls." Emma was no longer the childish little girl she was


    now. She liked to imitate the actions of adults.


    "Alright, daddy wille over after taking a shower!" Edwards kissed his daughter''s forehead and


    let her down.


    When he came out of his shower, he found that this bed was filled with traces of a brush.


    Can he still sleep on this bed?


    Edwards could only console himself in his heart: this is his own flesh and blood!


    Emma took the basket and picked up her toys one by one. After that, she carried her favorite doll


    andid on the bed, blinking herrge ck eyes as she looked at Edwards. "Daddy, when will


    Mummy return?"


    Edwards gently caressed her little arm and patted it: "She will be back the day after tomorrow.


    When that timees, you will be able to see her. Sleep now."


    "Daddy, would you miss her? Or am I the only one who misses her? Brother said he didn''t miss


    mom." Emma blinked her sleepy eyes and asked while yawning.


    "Does George really not miss Lily? He must be lying!" When Edwards thought of his son, he


    couldn''t help butugh. The little guy had grown up, and had his own little ideas. He was a little less


    close to his father, which makes Edwards a little upset. Daughter was better. She''s clingy and joyful.


    "Un, I also think so!" Emmaughed mischievously as she hugged one of her father''s arms and


    closed her eyes.


    Edwards turned off the lights. Emma leaned on his arm again, whispering: "Daddy, I''m scared!"


    "What are you afraid of?"


    "I''m just afraid!" No reason.


    Edwards pulled her small body into his embrace and used his hand to lightly pat her back. "Don''t be


    afraid, Daddy will protect you!" Only then did Emma peacefully sleep. Edwards could not help but


    exhale deeply, and as expected, without Lily, everything was not as peaceful as before.


    At first, he only thought of having children, but now, he realized how wrong he was.


    She had only been away for a few days and the child had lost their sense of security. Even he was


    worried about her every day. If he had only brought the children up with him, how timid would his


    daughter be now?


    It can''t imagine.


    Alvina lied on the grass, looking at the sky above her head. She had already lived here for three


    days. There wasn''t much interaction between Joseph and her. Furthermore, he was too busy,


    leaving early and returningte, it seemed like it would be difficult for her to even see him face to


    face.


    Was this a good or bad way to get along?


    It should be good. In any case, she didn''t want to marry him. After being with him for three months


    in such a cold and indifferent manner, that man would directly ask her to end the engagement.


    "He''s not that scary!" Alvina sat up, grabbed a de of grass and held it in her mouth, biting onto


    the tender part of grass. She could still feel a sense of sweetness.


    In the past, she had thought that he was a wolf that could eat people. But now, it seemed that her


    imagination was simply too rich. He was always busy with other people, so how could he have the


    time to hurt her?


    Just when Alvina thought Joseph woulde back veryte, she heard his voice sound out from


    behind her: "Why are you sitting here alone?"


    Alvina suddenly turned around, and saw that the man was dressed in ck pants, a simple white


    shirt, and also had an air of nobility from his casual manner. Against the light, his feature was still


    good-looking.


    Her heart skipped a beat.


    "Are you hungry while you''re here? You are actually so hungry that you are eating grass here!"


    Joseph walked to her side and then sat down. He picked up a small stone beside her and threw it


    towards theke.


    "You ... Howe you''re back so early?" One had to know that it was already noon. She had not


    even eaten lunch, yet he had already returned. It was rather unexpected.


    "Don''t you like me toe back early?" Joseph asked indifferently as he reached out and tore off


    the de of grass at the corner of her mouth.


    "Of course not, I just feel curious. What are you busy with every day?" Alvina frowned. Even though


    she was together with him, she didn''t know him well at all.


    "Of course it''s the country''s big business that''s busy. If I want me to tell you one thing by one thing,


    you will definitely be annoyed. Of course, I can''t leak out the country''s secrets, so don''t ask!"


    Joseph replied with a faint smile.


    "Leaking out? Is it because I''m an outsider to you?" Alvina curled her lips.


    "Isn''t it? I''ll tell you one by one when you be my wife!" Joseph teased her humorlessly.


    "Who wants to be your wife? I feel that we are still suitable to be outsiders. We don''t have any


    common ground in this world. It would be very tiring to get along with each other!" Alvina''s beautiful


    face suddenly flushed red. She never thought that the Mr. Vice - President would actually be so


    irregr.


    "Who said we don''t have anything inmon? We all have something inmon that we want to


    stay away from each other, don''t we? However, fate has still tightly tied us together. Now, we will


    see whether we will change our fate, or we will resign ourselves to our fate!" Josephughed at


    himself.


    "Do you have a way out of this predicament? You''re so smart, so you should be able to solve the


    problem, right?" Alvina immediately ced all her hopes on him.


    Joseph''s handsome face changed, his gaze turned to look at her, as deep as the sea, causing


    people to be unable to see through him.


    "I need Miller Family''s support. Your grandfather can speak for me in the political situation!" Joseph


    withdrew the rxed expression from earlier and his voice sank.


    Alvina''s beautiful face turned pale. She lowered her head and ridiculed, "What you care about is


    your position as President. That’ s right. Who am I? I have no life friendship with you. I am just a


    cornerstone of your stable regime, a chess piece. This is my life!"

    "Your grandfather is very smart. Actually, he could have exchanged you for other benefits, but he


    decided to marry you to me. Isn''t it good for you to enjoy my honor?" Joseph mocked indifferently.
