A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 104

"William, can we meet?" I had no choice but to say what I wanted to say. There was no way for me to hide it from William.

"Alright." William did not ask anything. Instead, he simply agreed to my request.

After hanging up the phone, I looked at my phone in a daze for a long time. Then I asked the servants to prepare the car and sent me there.

William and I had an appointment at the big almond shop we used to go to before. When I arrived, William was already waiting for me by the window.

He was dressed in a dark blue suit. He was handsome but haggard.

As soon as I walked in, he stood up. He looked at me with his gentle eyes and said, "Ashley, what do you want to drink?"

"I don't want to drink anything for the time being. William, I asked you to come here because I want to tell you something."

William didn't say anything, but sat in his seat and rubbed the cup in his hand with his fingers.

"Does it have anything to do with Edward?"

It seemed that William had already guessed it, but I was not surprised. Because I was in Edward's villa when he called me, and I had not gone back for a whole night. It was understandable that William could guess it.

"Yes." I didn't hide anything from William. Instead, I touched my belly and nodded.

"William, I'm sorry, I...may go back on my words."

After a long time, I raised my head and looked at William who was sitting opposite me seriously.

He looked at me for a long time. He was so serious. Under his serious gaze, I found that I couldn't say a word at all.

William stared at me for a long while before lowering his head. In a hoarse voice, he said softly, "You want to be together with Edward, don't you?"

"I have known something. It turns out that Edward has always loved me deeply. I can't forget this relationship."

After knowing the pain of Edward, I couldn't be indifferent. Because I had loved him for 15 years, and I really couldn't forget him.

"If this is your choice, then I respect your choice." I thought that William would at least scold me. However, he did not say a single word. Instead, he quietly looked at me for a long time.

Hearing William's words, I felt sadder and sadder.

I would rather William cursed at me than looking at me in such a calm manner.

I would rather... he scolded me...

"I'm sorry..." I stood up and bowed to William.

William smiled with gentleness on his face that I was familiar with. He reached out his hand and touched my head gently. He said helplessly to me, "Silly, why do you say sorry to me?"

"I'm sorry... I'm really... really sorry." I clenched my fists and tears burst out of my eyes.

I owed William so much. I was afraid that I couldn't pay it back for the rest of my life.

William held me in his arms and said in a hoarse voice, "As long as you're happy. Ashley, no matter how long it takes, I hope you can remember that I really... like you very much."

"I know." I sniffed, looked up at William's handsome chin, and said bitterly in my heart.

"Silly, what are you crying for?" William gently rubbed my eyelids with his finger and wiped away the tears on my cheek. He then shook his head helplessly at me.

I pursed my lips and glanced at William. Looking at him, I said in a guilty voice, "Our marriage..."

"I will cancel it. Don't feel sorry for me. As long as you feel happy. What's more, does Edward really want to be with you?" William squinted his eyes and asked.

"He has already gone to the Fang family, and he will make it clear to Betty and her families. We will leave Beijing." Thinking of what Edward said, I felt sweet in my heart.

I finally waited until the day when I could be with Edward forever.

William's expression was a little complicated. I couldn't understand his expression. When I was about to say something, William had already released me. He looked at me and said meaningfully, "It's enough if you think you are happy."

"Ashley, I don't know whether my words will cause you any misunderstanding or not. I want to say, don't be too naive. If Edward does anything to hurt you, you must tell me immediately, understand?"

William's expression suddenly became unusually serious. I couldn't understand it and could only stare at him in a daze.

After he finished speaking, he let go of me and said slowly, "I wish you happiness."

Then he left.

I looked at his back, and my heart was filled with sadness and pain.

I bit my lip and lowered my head. Looking at my belly, I let out a bitter laugh.

How could I pay back William's affection? I abandoned him over and over again. I was really a very bad woman.

"I didn't know that Edward and Betty had been hiding from us for such a long time. He told us that the wedding date would be made earlier. Three days later, it will be their wedding."

"Peng." The glass in my hand fell to the ground in an instant, and the ground was full of wine.

The clear sound disturbed those noblewomen who were chatting. They all looked at me with some doubts, as if they were condemning me for my impoliteness.

However, I did not pay attention to those noblewomen. I looked at Scott and said with my lips trembling, "You said... that Edward is going to get married in advance?" He... obviously wanted to tell them that the wedding would be canceled right away... Why did he arrange the wedding in advance?

"Don't you know? I thought... you know." Scott asked in confusion when she saw my reaction.

I didn't know... I don't know what Edward was thinking. What did he mean?

We had already reached an agreement last night. This morning, he told me to wait for him at home. Why did he change in a few hours? Why?

"Miss Mu, what's wrong with you?" Perhaps it was because I looked too weird at the moment, Scott was a little worried and pushed my hand.

I came back to sense and reluctantly glanced at her. I forced a smile, "I... am fine."

"Are you really fine? Your face looks very pale. Are you not feeling well? Do you need a doctor?" Scott looked at me worriedly and asked.

I staggered from the sofa and took a deep look at her. There was some dryness in my throat, "No... Nothing happened to me. I'm fine."

I wanted to ask Edward. Why did he suddenly change his mind?

"Miss Mu..." Scott's worried voice sounded behind me, but I didn't have the strength to explain anything to her.

I walked forward step by step, all the way until I walked out of the Fang family.

The driver opened the door and I sat in the car weakly. I pressed my belly and said to the driver in a hoarse voice, "Go to the Eastern Cinema City." Since Edward and Betty went to watch a movie, they should be in the Eastern Cinema City.

After the car started, I watched the villa of the Fang family gradually disappear. Somehow, I felt a sense of unprecedented fatigue.

Edward... Tell me, what exactly are you trying to do? What happened to you?

The Eastern Cinema City was the largest movie city in Beijing.

I asked the driver to park the car on the road, and I walked to the cinema alone.

There were many people in the cinema on weekends. I protected my belly carefully and stood at the door. I looked at those men and women who hugged each other in silence. Looking at their happiness on their faces, I felt I wanted to cry.
