Chapter 952 Don''t Hurt Me (Part Two)


    "I already told you I really don''t know." Edward insisted with his lie. He feared to tell her that he already


    anticipated Jessica to take revenge on her all along.


    "OK. Fine." Cynthia gave up on asking her son. "I''ll ask Lukie instead. He will tell me everything." The

    woman knew that Luke was aware of everything. since he had been following Edward every day. It was


    only then that she stepped aside to give way for her son.


    "Why would you ask him?" Edward''s brows furrowed He was certain that Luke would not tell anyone


    about him without his permission. But dang! He would probably say everything to Edward''s Mom.


    "Don''t you want to tell me? Then I''ll have to turn to him for help!" Cynthia raised her chin as she looked


    at her son. Pride was on her face as she could see that she was able to corner her child.


    "Fine. Let me tell you everything then. I did know that Jessica would take revenge on you. I knew my


    dad would be there to protect you and it was the reason why I didn''t tell you. Besides, he will send


    some bodyguards to protect you anyway even if he is not around. What was there to take seriously?"


    Honesty was the only choice left for Edward. There was no point of hiding it anymore as it was obvious


    that his mother would do everything just to squeeze the information out of Luke.


    "Oh, you fool! Are you sure you are my son? How can you not take this seriously?" Cynthia patted


    Edward on the back in dismay. ''Fortunately, I have a reliable husband to help me. If I had only


    depended on my son, it would have been me and not Jessica who is suffering now, '' she thought.


    "I trusted Dad. That''s why I didn''t take it seriously. I didn''t know that he wasn''t following you like a


    shadow today though." He trusted his dad, which was the main reason why Edward didn''t bother to tell


    his mother about what was going on. However, he never expected things to turn out like this.


    "Speaking of that, you''re the one who pissed Jessica off. Isn''t it unfair that it is always me or Daisy who


    ends up getting hurt? Howe you''re always safe and sound?" Cynthia pretended to be sad as she


    asked. It would be good for Edward to feel a little guilty even if she wasn''t hurt.


    "I am sorry! It''s all my fault. I didn''t manage the rtionship between me and Jessica well." Edward felt


    that he really screwed on that aspect. If he hadn''t been kind to Jessica, she wouldn''t have hurt the


    people he cared about again and again.


    "Right! We did nothing wrong. It''s all your fault! I don''t know what''s wrong with your eyes! How could


    you fall in love with a woman like that?" Cynthia looked at her son in disdain. For her, the only thing


    Edward did right was to be with Daisy again.


    "She wasn''t like that before. I don''t know why she changed a lot." The young CEO''s voice wasced


    with defeat. He and Jessica had agreed to be each other''s sex partner. There was no other rtionship


    between them other than that. It was Jessica who had been so greedy and broke their arrangement.


    "You are the one who made her like that. She wouldn''t love you that much and wouldn''t be so crazy


    when you left her if you had treated her badly in the first ce." Oddly, Cynthia understood why Jessica


    became like that. She believed that everything happened for a reason. It was the woman''s deep


    sadness that had triggered her to act all crazy and uncontrolled.


    "Yes. I know that I''ve been giving her chances. However, things have already turned out this way thus, I


    can''t keep on doing that anymore." A mild sigh escaped from Edward''s chest. The feeling of being


    vindicated cruised his veins. He was right all along. He did not love her. He couldn''t and he wouldn''t no


    matter what she did.


    "s! I''m telling you this not because I want to me you. What I want is for you to know that not all


    girls are as rational as Daisy." Cynthia patted his back again, meaningfully this time. She had always


    looked at her son as a good boy. He was far from any other arrogant rich men.


    "You''re right. I did find you a good daughter-inw." Just the mention of Daisy''s name made Edward''s


    feelings lighter. Her name was like a magic chant that made him less depressed within a matter of


    second.


    "How cunning! It was us who found Daisy, not you!" The woman stood on tiptoe and then suddenly hit


    her son on the head. How could he dare im that he found Daisy when he had always given her a


    hard time?


    "All right. All right. You found her but I''m the one who keeps her with me. You failed to keep her in our


    house, as she left a few years ago?" Pride was in Edward''s voice as he evaded his mother. He couldn''t


    be more grateful for the emergency training in the army base or else he wouldn''t have found out about


    his six-year-old son.


    "Yes, we found her. Where''s Justin? Why didn''t I see him?" His mother looked around quizzically and


    thought that it was strange. Her grandchild would usually run to them whenever he saw them. How


    "You don''t know where he is? Didn''t you and dad always pick him up from school?" Edward nced at


    his watch anxiously. It was time. Howe his son didn''te home with his grandma? ''No wonder I


    felt something was wrong!'' he thought as he silently cursed inside his head.


    "Shoot! I can''t believe Ipletely forgot. He should be out of school by now, right? I''ll pick him up."


    The aged woman readied to walk towards the garage. She unintentionally forgot Justin because of


    Jessica.


    "Forget it. I''ll pick him up myself." Edward pressed his lips together. He did not know how the little guy


    would feel after he knew that theypletely forgot to pick him up. His son would terribly be upset.


    "Okay. You drive faster than me. Go! You can pick him up early. He must be crying while seeing the


    other kids get picked up one by one." Cynthia rubbed her hands together anxiously. Her mistake was


    both stupid and unbelievable.


    "He will not cry but I''m sure he''ll be angry. Don''t worry. He''ll be fine." Edward was talking as he walked


    to the garage. He was halfway to it when he met Luke.


    "What''s the matter, Mr. Mu? Are you going out again? Did something happen?" Luke was puzzled upon


    seeing his master in such a hurry. They just got home. Why was he going out again?


    "Yes. My mother forgot to pick up Justin. I''ll pick him up now." He shut his mouth and then continued for


    the garage.


    "Why don''t you just wait at home? Let me pick him up." Luke offered as he thought that he would be


    following whoever picked the kid anyway. If so, why not just do it by himself, right?


    "No. I''ll have to pick him up myself this time or the little guy will throw a fit." Edward knew his son like


    the back of his hand. His little man would feel very agitated if he sent someone else to pick him up.


    However, he wouldn''t be as angry if it was him that Justin would see right on the school gate.


    "You''re right. Okay then, let me drive for you." With those words, Luke ran to the garage and gave his


    boss no option to talk.


    Edward was left frozen on his feet. He epted Luke''s offer and remained standing where he was as


    he waited for the car. He knew that the man would follow him anyway even if he decided to drive by


    himself. Therefore, why just not let Luke drive, right?
