"Surprise!" Edward immediately looked up. Casting his gaze towards the door, he saw Samuel and Kairos suddenly visiting his office this afternoon. Whether it was for what business, seeing Kairos's mysterious smile truly made Edward feel uneasy. "What are you two doing here?" Samuel smiled. Sitting down immediately, he answered Edward's question without beating around the bush. "Kairos had the idea to meet you at the office. He said he was in a good mood and wanted to treat us to lunch at an expensive restaurant." Kairos folded his arms in front of his chest. Putting on his usual arrogant expression, which made Edward feel nauseous. "Ah, I'm busy!" Kairos clicked his tongue. "Oh, come on. I haven't splurged in a long time. Today, you're free to choose the restaurant. Let me treat you until you're full." "Why not tonight instead? Didn't we agree to have dinner together?" Kairos nodded. "If it's tonight, it's your business, Ed. But this is a different story." "Oh God, Kairos.
Samuel and Kairos sat casually at Oregano Bar, chatting and enjoying their drinks. Yes, they were both not busy. At Kairos's suggestion, Samuel reluctantly agreed to lie to Edward. He said there was a surgery scheduled, so he couldn't make it, allowing Edward to enjoy a dinner alone with Bella. "If Edward finds out we're both here, he'll definitely be furious." Kairos laughed. But really, he didn't care if Edward eventually found out he was the mastermind behind this lie. After all, everything Kairos did was for Edward's own good. "Let it be. I hope Edward enjoys his dinner with Bella. I pray that after tonight, he falls in love with Bella and maybe even decides to marry her." Samuel shook his head in disbelief. He couldn't fathom what Kairos was planning without his knowledge. "I see you're so eager to matchmake Edward with Bella. Yet, you know Edward already has Julia, whom he loves deeply." "I won't deny it. But that's my goal, Sam. Honestly, I really want to make Edward fall
Since they were already there, Edward invited Bella to have dinner together. As a gesture of appreciation, he allowed her to order whatever she liked. "I'd like the premium Roast Meat with blueberry sauce. For the drink, the ocean squase. That should be more than enough." The waiter took note of Bella's order. Then, it was Edward's turn to order."I'll have the same from the food menu to the drinks." "Very well, Sir. Please wait a moment. Let us prepare." Fortunately, the service there was very fast. Just waiting for 15 minutes, what Bella and Edward ordered arrived and was served immediately. Bella seemed the most enthusiastic. Previously, she rarely ate such expensive food. That's why she felt lucky to be invited by Edward to a luxurious restaurant, which was undoubtedly expensive. Bella observed Edward, who was focused on cutting the meat on his plate into small pieces. She thought that after everything was cut up, Edward would immediately eat it. But what happened unexpectedl
"You're free to do anything." Short, to the point, but it evokes many perceptions. For heaven's sake, Edward took a moment to digest the sentence Bella had just spoken to him. In the position above Bella's body, with her hands wrapped around his neck, Edward tried to understand it well. He wondered in his heart whether the recent statement was a form of permission, an invitation, or perhaps both. However, seeing the melancholy and longing in Bella's eyes, Edward believed that she was granting him full access to do anything. Especially after that, Bella deliberately pulled him closer until their bodies were pressed against each other. So, fully aware and confident, Edward slowly lowered his face. From some impulse, within seconds he dared to kiss Bella's tempting lips again. Let's just consider Edward on a humanitarian mission, helping Bella fulfill her drastically increasing sexual desires in this second trimester. Moreover, quoting Samuel's earlier statement that what Edward is d
For Edward, marrying Julia was the greatest achievement in his life. From the beginning, from the first meeting, he immediately fell in love and became obsessed with her. Despite numerous scandals that had hit the news, Edward didn't care. Even when Kairos openly expressed his disapproval, Edward chose to ignore it. Because of his deep love, he still decided to propose to Julia and make her his life partner. In the past, Edward even swore he would never turn away from Julia even for a moment. At their initial meeting with Bella, Edward appeared aloof and cold. Intentionally avoiding her as if he was not interested in getting to know each other. But look at him now. As if he had eaten his own words, Edward is now with Bella. More than that, they both seem to be under the same blanket. So close and clinging to each other. Even now, they are still naked and haven't put on any clothes after completing their humanitarian and rescue mission last night. While gazing at Bella's face, Edwar
As an apology, tonight Kairos and Samuel visited Edward's house specifically. In the office, the three of them appeared to be chatting casually as usual. "I'm sure you two deliberately didn't come to the restaurant, right?"Edward threw a probing glance. He looked at Kairos and Samuel alternately. "We were both busy, Ed," Samuel defended himself. "But, because of our absence, you and Bella could enjoy dinner together alone. I bet after dinner, there was a party that continued," Kairos quipped. However, seeing Edward silent, not chatty or protesting, but rather raising suspicion in Kairos's mind. "Edward... why are you silent?" Kairos asked to confirm. "Or perhaps you and Bella really did something?" Kairos continued to throw investigative glances. He stared at Edward until the man didn't move. "Oh my, Edward. You and Bella are really---""Kairos, that's enough," Edward said embarrassedly. He hated being teased like this."Sam, take a look at your friend," Kairos added. "Can you b
"Darling... I miss you." Whether this is an honest expression or just a mere camouflage, I don't know. What's certain is that after five days in Hawaii, Julia only contacted Edward again this morning. There's some curiosity too, actually. I also want to know how her husband is doing and what he's currently busy with. "Miss me? I thought you had forgotten about me?" Edward responded curtly and coldly. Still lying on the bed, he seemed lazy to entertain calls from his wife. "Besides..." Edward continued. "Why didn't you call when you returned to London?" From her tone, Julia sighed."Oh God. You're so angry and vengeful. I love you so much, so how could I forget you?""Proof is, after five days in Hawaii, you only contacted me this morning," Edward argued. Undeniably, from his tone alone, he sounded like someone holding back annoyance."Edward..." Julia called softly. "I didn't forget about you. I've been busy, and I purposely didn't call because I knew you'd still be angry with me
Keeping his promise, today Edward took Bella out for a walk. According to plan, the first place they both went to was the cinema.Edward let Bella choose which movie they would watch. After that, Edward intentionally rented a VIP room at the cinema so they could watch alone without being disturbed by other viewers."You're exaggerating," Bella exclaimed as they entered the cinema room and were seated. "You don't need to rent a whole room."Edward seemed indifferent. Yet, this was the first time he was so determined to take a woman out on a date that he rented a cinema room just to ensure their privacy. Despite his past infatuation with Julia, he never did anything like this. Odd indeed."It's not excessive. I just want to enjoy the movie with you alone without anyone bothering us."Bella pinched Edward playfully. Since the movie they wanted to watch had started, Edward pulled Bella into his embrace. He hugged her while enjoying what was being presented in front of them.Maybe about two
