Chapter 181 Today Is My Birthday


    "What? She got hurt? Why don''t I remember anything about this? Is it serious?" Annie asked in a state


    of panic. She wondered what she had done yesterday. And how things got so serious.


    "Don''t worry, it''s a minor wound. It will recover soon. Don''t feel so guilty about it." Rain didn''t expect this


    reaction from her. He tried tofort her. But he didn''t intend to hide the facts.


    "Really? I don''t remember what happened yesterday. Howe Daisy was bringing me back?" Annie


    thought carefully but failed to remember anything. Was it a coincidence that they met in the recreational


    ce? But that was highly unlikely. Annie thought.


    "I heard that the bartender had called Daisy. You had her card with you." said Rain. He reached out his


    hands and held her cold hands with some hesitation. Annie turned stiff by his action. His big hands


    were quite warm. The warmth was like an electric current that shocked her into numbness. Her heart


    was beating faster. She nced furtively at his handsome face. She knew she would be mesmerized


    by his charming face under any circumstances.


    "Oh! Is Edward angry with me?" asked Annie Thinking of this attractive and handsome man, Annie


    seemed a little wavering with her question.


    "No, he''s not that mean." Rain pursed his lips and said. Edward was not angry with Annie, but that


    didn''t mean he was not angry with Daisy. He seemed furiousst night. It appeared that he would blow


    his top any second.


    Annie followed Rain downstairs, holding hands. Her long hair and dress swirled, bellowing with the


    speed of her steps as if she were dancing like an angel who had just fallen from the heaven.


    Rain wanted to ask her why she didn''t contact him. But when he thought of Aaron''s words, he gave up


    the idea. Perhaps her love towards him had faded. He could feel it from her estranged behavior. If it


    was like before, she would be leaning on his shoulder fondly. However, now he could perceive that she


    was a little resistant about his touch.


    Rain smiled helplessly. Time had changed everything. Her love for Rain had faded with time. No one


    belongs to another indefinitely. When the time is up, the curtain falls.


    Annie gorged herself with food, without pausing to savor the vor. It pained her heart that Rain was


    being so cold to her. Maybe she was only a sister in his eyes. ''He''s not excited about my return.'' She


    thought.

    During breakfast, they sat at the same table, but they were thinking about different things. They


    carefully examined each others'' expressions. The atmosphere was very strange. They didn''t say


    anything to each other. The stress was suffocating.


    At FX International Group


    Mary came to the office in the early morning. She decided to take some action for improving her


    rtionship with Edward. She was eager to be Edward''s wife. Justin''s presence had already


    made her sad. Now the sudden news about Jessica''s child was making her miserable. It seemed that


    her prospects of bing Edward''s wife were getting slimmer by the day.


    "Brother Edward, you havee a littleter than usual today." She waited for a long time and when


    she finally saw Edwarde in, she quickly embraced him and greeted. She smiled at Edward


    sweetly. It showed that she had spent a lot of time on makeup. She looked absolutely gorgeous.


    "Yes. I was dyed by some business. How are you doing, Miss Mary? Is everything fine for you


    here?" Edward asked with a smile. She was Daisy''s elder sister. She was calling him brother now, it


    sounded awkward. Edward thought.


    "Everything is fine. Anna taught me everything thoroughly. Everyone is being nice to me. Edward, are


    you free tonight?" Mary asked while looking at him, her eyes were full of expectation. She was afraid


    that he would decline her offer.


    "I don''t have anything nned yet. What''s up?" Edward said while walking into his office. He shot a


    look at Anna, indicating her to bring his schedule nner.


    "Well... Today is my birthday. My mother is going to host a small party for me tonight. I am hoping you


    woulde." Mary said while following him. She was determined to bring him to her house today,


    come what may.


    "Oh! Happy birthday! Okay! I wille if I''m free." Edward said with a frown. ''Is she asking me to go to


    Daisy''s parents'' house? I just realized I have never visited my parents-inw. It''s strange that Daisy


    has never suggested visiting her parents. Isn''t it more appropriate for Daisy to invite me on such an


    asion? Also, Luke hasn''t given any news about the investigation yet.'' Edward thought.


    "Okay. Edward, you muste. My father had also invited you to dinner, right? Why don''t we take this


    chance to get together." In fact, Leo had invited Edward only because Mary had asked him to do so.


    Maryined that she never got the chance to be alone with Edward. So she came up with the idea


    of asking her father to invite him. She didn''t expect that Edward would refuse. Therefore she had to find


    another excuse to invite Edward.


    "Okay, let me check my schedule first. If I am free tonight, I wille." Edward replied. Since Luke


    hadn''te back with any information on the investigation. He decided to do the search himself.


    Nevertheless, their peculiar family intrigued him.


    "Okay, Edward, I will be waiting for the good news." Mary got excited because she had secretly


    checked Edward''s schedule beforehand. She knew there were no meetings on his schedule after 4 pm.


    She was thrilled to hear Edward''s words.


    "Okay. You can get to work now if there is nothing else. Anna,e in!" Edward said. Since Edward


    had be used to Daisy''s beautiful face without any makeup, he became repulsive to women


    wearing heavy makeup. It seemed that he had changed his taste in women.
