Her once bright and loving gaze transforms into a seething glare at Edward, brimming with resentment and disdain. “ You are hurting me, Edward. She came back. You should stop hurting me like this!" Her gentle voice carries a biting edge, dripping the venom of shattered trust.” Stop! I told you to understand. Let me explain.!" Edward shuts her, almost pleading. “ She is here. She is calling me another woman. On top of that, you bring me here when your mistress is living with you. That's too much, Edward. That's not funny!"The weight of his endless deception has etched deep lines of anguish onto her delicate face. Letting her live a moment of pain and hatred together.“ Please! I don't like her. Please, try to understand me. She is here for a while. She will be returned as soon as the month ends." His hands wrapped around her neck, gently stroking her cheeks to get her to calm down.“ Charlotte! Look at me. Look into my eyes. I swear, I swear to God that I don't have a damn thing for
Lisa is sent to another room from the room which is situated right opposite direction of Edward's room to the corner room on the third floor after Charlotte accepted his apology. Although Lisa wanted to start messing with them, Edward's sternness made her obey him right away. So, that at least Charlotte doesn't feel pressured. Anyway, in the evening, When he is busy with his bunches of files to sign, his eyes go to the door. A soft smile plays on his lips. Turning off the laptop, he stands up.“ Do you need something?" He asks Charlotte who is looking at him awkwardly. Her eyes are here and there but not on him.“ Um. Well. The thing is that. The purse that you stole from the table yesterday, has only my passport. My cards and phone are still in my penthouse. So, well. "“ You want to go back to bring them? Well, I didn't steal your purse though" He asked raising his eyebrows. Even the word leave can shake his heart, giving a touch of terror.“ No. That's not it. I mean. Can I borrow
“ He is a scam, isn't he?” Edward raises his one of eyebrows while locking her in his embrace. ” He said he has done multiple surgeries on his face!" “ Charlotte! He is a little slow. How did you marry such a guy? For his look or money?" Getting close to Charlotte who is playing with Edward's fingers, Joshua whispers.“ For his look, obviously! Who would have married such an idiot person?" “ I can hear you, guys. Stop this and speaks truthfully. Charlotte! What if he is lying like Shayne!" he pulls her more away from Joshua, giving him a death glare.“You are squeezing me to death. Wanna get killed?" she spoke pushing his arms but Edward has no plans to let her go.“ It's okay. As you know, I quite know about that Shayne who lied about being our sister. Anyway, I don't have any reason to lie since I have zero interest in our parents' property. So, you can rest assured!" He said.“ But Mr. Rodriguez. Me being here has a very significant reason. I will be here for a while until I can
Edward's eyes are on her, watching her with his deepest desire. Not gonna lie to himself, he went crazy, no crazier once, he had realized that Charlotte is a girl who won't ask for an explanation neither will bother you. She will silently disappear without making you feel regret and guilt.And it's dangerous. He doesn't even dare to do a slight mistake to keep her by his side. Never, had he had the same thought even when he lost Lisa. He mourned, he was in agony and hostility towards himself that he couldn't able to protect her. However, he had no thought that he can't live without her.But, for one second, when he found the ring on the nightstand and something hit his senses that Charlotte has left him. His heart screamed, saying it can't live without her around him. Even her presence must be needed to live.Now, he is feeling nothing but euphoria. Everything looks beautiful as long as she is next to him. The ceiling two days ago felt like a barrier is now shining with the chandelier
“Hello?" Her sleepy voice resounds annoyance and confusion as she receives a call in the morning, waiting for a response from the opposite side.“ Your voice sounds sexy. Had a good sleep?" the person replies.“ Yeah. Thanks to you, now it's disturbed." Her eyes still shut with an irritated frown.“ Sounds angry. How are you, Charlotte? It's been a while since we met!" Now Her eyes opened with furrowed eyebrows. She checked the caller ID but got no information in her brain about it.“ Who is that?" She asked getting up slowly“ We met before. Did you forget? On the subway!" “ What subway?" she questioned out of confusion“ C'mon! Charlotte! You are hurting me." The voice gets deeper and creepier.” I don't know what you are talking about. But I don't have time for this. Thank you!" She said almost hanging up on him.“ I am watching you, Charlotte. Hope we meet soon. Anyway, Isn't your husband Edward Rodriguez? He has a meeting with JK Company today." Now, Charlotte's brain sent her
“ You should have come to me directly after this brat made you feel bad. I would have taught him a lesson." Mrs. Rodriguez glared at her son and holds Charlotte's hands with care and love. After knowing that, Charlotte left Edward because of his being with another woman. She confronted him despite being his mother.She can't take the side of her cheating son who did something immoral. But she knew that Edward can never do something. At least he would have a solid reason for doing such a thing. And she kept waiting until the Truth unfold.“ It's okay. Mom. I should have asked for an explanation as well. I didn't think properly and acted out." She replied, smiling at Edward.” I know. I know. Stop being so loving wife. He is going to get punishment for everything anyway. But Butler said there has some happy news. I didn't understand what it is. Can you tell me now?" His mother asks not exactly knowing. Edward informed Butler only about this matter.“ Well, Mom.." Edward holds her han
“ You little Witch! How could you leave me? How could you not call me again? I thought it was my fault that I didn't respond to your call and you left for good. I will kill you!” Sandra hugs her tightly. She knows her best friend can endure everything but seeing her lover with someone else makes her weak. But she didn't know that she would try to avoid it instead of facing thisBut watching her return, mixed emotions of sadness and happiness washed over her face.“ I am sorry. It was a stupid act. I know that. Anyway, I heard you are going to marry my brother-in-law. That's so much progress, Sandra!” She winks, breaking the hug.“ Well, It's. It's just. I thought about Suzy and I think I should give it a try. Nothing else. Nothing else!" Her face turns red as she kept trying to make it a normal matter but she got a teasing laughter from Charlotte.” Seems like we will be family like you said. My brother-in-law is a good person. Don't need to be shy, Sandra!”“ Shut up! Tell me why y
Both of them are silently staring at the monitor as the sound of heartbeat has filled up the room with thousands of love and care. Edward's hand tightly wrapped her arm, as he is lost in the reflection of the fetus. His palm is sweating vastly which caught Charlotte's attention.She turns her head to him, smiles brightly, seeing how profoundly he is looking at his baby. His mood has lit up now. Earlier, even after apologizing, he kept silent and she respected his silence. She is the one who to blame and she needs to get punished for hurting him like that. “ It's our baby!" she mutters in a soft tone, touching his hand which is squeezing her hand. Edward's eyes shift on her from the monitor. The bloodshot eyes are still in, but now, it's moistened with the tears that subconsciously gathered in his eyes. “ Thank you!" A big smile spreads over his face, illuminating his happiness all over his face. His eyes are screaming the happiness that he is now.Charlotte pulls his hand and gent
