Chapter 544 A Beautiful Past


    Disappointed with herself, Nancy walked around outside the ssroom alone. After ss, Edward


    approached her with a smile. "I asked you toe close and sit by my side. Why didn''t you move?"


    It was the second time that she met Edward, andter on, Edward always helped her take a seat in this


    professor''s ss.


    The two grew closer to each other as the days went by. They became inseparable.


    It was a beautiful past, wasn''t it?


    As the thought of this, tears welled up in Nancy''s eyes. She lowered her head and thought that after


    this night, she might not see Edward, Charles and her children again...


    "You are such a good girl, Nancy!" The man''s voice was full of pity.


    "Do you know me too?" Wiping her tears away, Nancy continued, "All the men here can call out my


    name, but no one can help me leave this ce. Men are wicked!"


    Yes, if someone was willing to help her, he only needed to tell Charles or call the police after he left


    here. Then Nancy would be saved.


    But since every man who came here was afraid that his scandal would be exposed, they all pretended


    that nothing had happened. They turned a blind eye to every woman''s misery.


    Or perhaps it had be a ce for men to have fun, and they all thought that no woman had the


    right to ask them a favor, let alone leave this ce.


    That was the reason why Nancy didn''t have faith in this man in front of her. She couldn''t hope that this


    man would help her because her heart couldn''t take another disappointment.


    "Nancy, you lost weight." The man suddenly took her hand and gently stroked it.


    Instinctively, Nancy withdrew her hand, but the man held it tighter. He slowly opened her palm and


    wrote "Edward" on it using his forefinger.


    Startled, Nancy looked up at the man''s face.


    She had never seen such a face, but she was not unfamiliar with it. What happened?


    "You are..." At this moment, she wanted to call out Edward''s name, but she didn''t. There was a camera


    in this room, and their every move was monitored by this club''s facilitators.


    "I''m your owner today. Take good care of me, Nancy. I have a lot of money." Then he took out stack of


    money and shook it in front of Nancy.


    At this moment, Nancy didn''t know what to do. If it was Edward, then he was wearing a mask.


    If it wasn''t Edward... Either way, she didn''t dare to act rashly, for fear that she would meet another


    weird man again.


    Everything could happen here.


    She''d better be careful!


    Seeing Nancy''s troubled face, the man threw the money on the tea table and sat on the sofa. "Come


    on, have a drink with me."


    Step by step, Nancy walked over and sat down beside him.


    "Add some ice to the whiskey. I like it that way." The way he said those words was like giving Nancy a


    clue.


    To say Nancy was shocked was an understatement. As far as she could remember, Edward liked


    adding ice cubes to his whiskey. When he was abroad, ice cubes were always stored in Edward''s


    fridge.


    Was this man suggesting something to her?


    There was a sh of excitement in Nancy''s heart, but she didn''t dare to say anything. If this was


    Edward, then she shouldn''t do something to ruin her chance to escape. "Okay, sir."


    With a flushed face, Nancy skilfully added ice to his whiskey and politely gave it to him. "Please enjoy


    it."


    The man took it and raised it in front of her. "Thanks. Would you like some?"


    "I... I''m not good at drinking, so I''d better drink some champagne." The man had revealed his true


    identity. He was Edward. No matter how excited Nancy was, she didn''t dare to show it. She could only


    follow Edward''s orders.


    So, she poured herself a ss of champagne and gently touched it with Edward''s. There was a ghost


    of smile on her lips when she took a sip on her ss.


    "You look very cautious. Did you juste here?" As he spoke, Edward lit a cigarette and took a drag.


    However, he choked and coughed right away.


    It was because he didn''t really smoke. He was just pretending to be a bad guy. If the situation wasn''t


    serious, Nancy could''ve burst intoughter.


    Instead, Nancy shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Yes, I''ve only been here for three or four days. I


    don''t know the rules here, so... They dislike me."


    A bitter smile appeared on her face, so Edward couldn''t help but frown. ''Where is Charles? Nancy had


    been missing for so long, but he hadn''t found her yet?''


    At this moment, Nancy also wanted to ask how Edward found this ce.


    Or why didn''t Charlese? Did Charles really forget her just like what the other people said?


    But still, Nancy was thankful that Edward came at the right ce, at the right time. If he wasn''t the


    guess Nancy was with tonight, she would have died.


    When he found out that Nancy was missing, Edward was beyond anxious. Therefore, as soon as was


    done with everything he needed to do abroad, he took a ne back to the country.


    The first thing he did when he arrived was to look for Nancy. He didn''t bother to contact Charles


    because he was a little disappointed in him.


    This was also one of the rare days when Edward went back to his family''s house.

    As they always did, his family gave him a warm wee, but he was like an iceberg. He only ignored


    them and dragged his suitcase into his room.


    His father followed him and closed the door gently. "You rarelye home. Why didn''t you say


    something to your mom, brother and the others as soon as youe back?"


    Edward''s father could do nothing to his rebellious son. His son championed freedom, so his family


    gave to him and allowed to grow by himself.


    Besides, Edward''s father had thought that after Edward had enough fun, he woulde back home


    obediently and marry a woman from a rich family to live a peaceful life.


    But Edward didn''t think so at all. He just wanted to live a happy life alone. Coming home never


    urred to his mind.


    Therefore, everyone was ustomed to Edward''s freedom. When the gossip about Edward and Nancy


    spread, the whole family was very calm.


    As if Edward''s life had nothing to do with them anymore.


    With a sigh, Edwardy on the bed and said, "Dad, I didn''te here to see them. I have something to


    ask you; it''s about Nancy..."


    His father''s mood quickly shifted. "Why is that woman again? Isn''t she with Charles? Charles is there.


    Why are you so worried?"


    Sure enough, Charles was there. But Charles didn''t even know where Nancy was. How could he be at


    ease? "She is my friend. I treat her as my sister. Please help me this time, no matter what happens."


    "I don''t know her. I can''t help her." Remembering the gossip in which Edward had been involved


    before, his father didn''t want to help at all.


    "If you don''t help me, I swear you''ll never see me again." Seeing that his father''s unwillingness to help,


    Edward no other choice but to use his father''s weakness. What his father feared the most was that he


    would note back.


    The truth was, Edward was not really a cold-blooded man. He just wanted to run his own business and


    have his own family.


    As for his parents, with his brother and sister-inw, they might not have a better family rtionship


    even if he came back.


    Edward''s brother and sister-inw had a lot of doubts about him. Of course, this would happen in most


    wealthy families, and Wu family was no exception.


    With a sigh, his father scolded, "You bastard, how dare you threaten me? s, I don''t have any


    information about Nancy now. Even if I want to help you, I have no idea."


    After a short pause, Edward said, "I believe Nancy is still alive. She was taken away by the gangsters.


    You can use your connection to look for her. I don''t believe that Nancy will disappear without a


    reason."
