Chelsea was confused. “What’s this favor?”


    Edmund said distractedly, “A woman ising to my house. I need a ce to hide.”


    Chelsea was puzzled. He could have chosen anywhere outside her house to hide. The city is so big!


    Why does he have to stay here?


    Edmund seemed to see through her mind, and exined, “She’s already downstairs. I have no ce to


    go.”


    Chelsea looked into his eyes to see if he was lying.


    But Edmund always kept his expression neutral, so people barely find a clue on his face.

    Chelsea stopped to ask, “How long are you going to stay? I’LL go back to my dad’s ce after some


    pack-ups.”


    Edmund got annoyed with her rude behavior and leaned toward her. He stared at her with a pair of


    dark eyes and asked, “You don’t want to stay with me? You have to leave when I just get here?”


    Chelsea didn’t expect Edmund to make a big deal out of this. She took a step back to distance herself


    from him and exined, “I would have left if you didn’te.”


    She would have stayed with Roy and Kelli on Christmas day until Zuri called her.


    Zuri had returned to her apartment and caught some sleep after cleaning up, so Chelsea should leave.


    Edmund’s expression softened after listening to this, but he still stood in Chelsea’s way and asked,


    “Aren’t you curious about the woman?”


    “Should I?” Chelsea asked again, “How long are you going to stay?” Edmund shrugged.

    “I don’t know. It depends on her.”


    He clearly needed to stay here for a long time


    Chelsea red at him.


    “Are you going to hide whenever a woman pesters you?”


    Was this really a solution?


    “Let’s talk about this after she leaves.” That woman had driven him mad.


    The woman was called Suzanne McBride, the granddaughter of the old factory director in Grafstin. She


    came all the way from the south to the Capital for Edmund on Christmas. Before Edmund figured out


    how Suzanne McBride had gotten his address, she had already arrived at gate to his apartment


    building.


    Edmund wouldn’t let her it until then he realized it was a good chance to stay with Chelsea. Before he


    came upstairs, Edmund unlocked the security gate.


    No one would answer the door no matter how many times Suzanne knocked, and the neighbors might


    kick her out for creating absurd noises.


    Maybe Suzanne may lose her interest in this way.


    Edmund would have teased her till she gave up if her grandfather wasn’t a factory director.


    Chelsea didn’t want to stay with Edmund in the same room. After a moment, she said, “Well, I should


    go. Lock the door when you leave.” Edmund was lost for words.
