Chapter 262 Enjoy The Taste Of Heartbreak (Part One)
Did he hate her? Or he couldn''t ept she was the one he kissed? She probably shouldn''t havee
in the first ce. Maybe it was time to leave. After all, her co-workers from the C Financial Group had
left already. At first, she couldn''t bear the thought of leaving him, and had persuaded herself to stay
with all her might, but it turned out she had made a bad choice. She was still nothing to him.
They both loved each other, but a minor misunderstanding stopped them from dering their hearts.
They couldn''t bridge the abyss of doubts and assumptions. Things were getting tougher and tougher
for this love rtionship.
Annie didn''t move, face buried in her long hair, tears trickling down her cheeks. She didn''t make a
sound, though her shaking shoulders betrayed her sadness. Rain returned but what he saw plunged
his heart into icewater. Did she hate him so much? Did the impulsive kiss make her feel so sad? Did
she have someone in her heart? A million questions roared through his mind, but his voice caught in
his throat. He couldn''t step forward; all he could do was to turn around and walk away in silence. The
abyss widened.
One quiet night was a sweet remedy for broken hearts, a lovely melody for deste minds. It was like a
beautiful song yed on a flute, soundless notes floating in the air -- sad, soft,sting but always
unreachable.
Over one night, the Lin Group was about to fall apart. It had been one of the strongestpanies the
night before, and now it was on the brink of copse. Thanks to its retailing business, their stocks
hadn''t beplete scrap papers. Edward did show them some small mercy.
Jessica''s mind went utterly nk. She put her hands on her belly. This was the only thing that could
bring her some happiness. Edward could be very cruel and she knew it well. For so many years he had
closed his heart to all women around him. She had thought she was different and she would be the one
by his side in the end. But this Daisy appeared from nowhere and took all his attention. This was
unforgivable.
''Edward, do you really love her? Why is she so special to you? For her, you have no qualms about
destroying the Lin Group. Do you know how bad it hurts me? But what should I do then? You know
what, the more you want her, the quicker I will get her out of the way. You want to tell her you have
nothing to do with me, then I will let her know about our undeniable connection. Let''s see how long
your protection willst.''
Without hesitation, Jessica picked up her phone, found the name ''Bitch'' in her contact list and dialed. If
she couldn''t have him, no one could. May the bitch enjoy the taste of heartbreak.
The call went straight to voicemail. In a fury Jessica mmed her phone on the sofa. ''Do you really
think you could escape my wrath so easily just by turning off your phone? You can''t turn off you phone

forever, Daisy Ouyang. I will find you in the end!''
"Miss Jessica, what should we do now? At this rate, our stock will be a shambles very soon. All the
shareholders are outside and want an answer for this." The secretary''s face was covered in a thinyer
of sweat. He had thought the Lin Group''s reputation could be recovered if they imed that they were
backed by FX International Group. He had been working on this all day but no one was buying it.
Things just went from bad to worse, and their stock had fallen to an all-time low over one night.
"Answer? Those dinosaurs didn''t have so much to say when they took our money. Now it''s only a small
problem and they just can''t wait to take up arms! Great! They want an answer? I will give them one
now!" Jessica sneered coldly. It was hard to tell whether she was pleased or sad for the inconstancy of
human rtionships.
"Can''t we ask for Mr. Edward''s help?" The secretary asked carefully. The problem they faced was only
a breeze to FX International Group. Edward couldn''t be so ruthless to sit there and watch them die.
After all, Jessica and Edward had a fling in the past.
"Ha-ha! Edward''s help? Edward is the one who dragged us into this mess. FX International Group is
behind this the whole time. You still think he will help us?" Jessica said through gritted teeth. She
abandoned her dignity to love this man, trying so hard to please him. She could ignore the countless
women around him, hoping one day he would finally discover how great she was, and marry her of his
own ord. But she never dreamed that Edward would treat her love like dirt for a poor bitch.
"But it can''t be! Ourpany has no conflict of interest with FX International Group. We''re not
close, aren''t you?" The secretary didn''t believe Edward would do this for nothing. He didn''t know what
had happened but there must be something wrong. Attacking otherpanies on a whim was unlike
Edward.
"No conflict of interest? That is what you believe. Edward always seems like a saint and ys like a
devil. You should know how cold-blooded he is. Don''t expect he will go easy on us. We should feel
lucky he hasn''t mounted a hostile takeover yet. I need you to leave, please. I''d like a moment alone."
Jessica gestured him out with an impatient wave of her hand. She needed to think things over and
hatch a n to turn things around. Her father had built thispany with his blood and sweat. She
didn''t want to be the one to give it up.
The mood was better in the CEO''s Office of FX International Group. Edward studied the file in his
hands, lips curved lightly, pleased with what he had seen.
"Great. Rain, very efficient. How about the other task?" Edward said with a smile. He put aside the file
and nced at Rain. What happened to him? Rain was leaningnguidly against the sofa, with a look
of dismay on his face instead of his usual smile.
"I''m on it. Rx. We are not the one who is begging." Rain answered tiredly, unwilling to change his
listless posture. Even now, what happenedst night still filled him with deep frustration. He left home
very early this morning, just because he didn''t know how to face Annie.
"What''s wrong? You''re acting like you tried to put a move on Anniest night and she brushed you off."
Edward just said it in passing and didn''t mean to tease Rain. But apparently Rain took it seriously,
widened eyes fastened on Edward, wondering how Edward could know he had kissed Annie against
her willst night. Could Edward read his mind?
"How did you know?" Sometimes Rain was one card short of a full deck. All you needed was a casual
mention and he was ready to tell the whole story without knowing it. Small wonder Edward could string
him along.
