A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 138

Amy and I went to visit Xi Edward's workshop. The manager of the workshop knew me. After seeing me, he introduced those works to me with great respect. He even said proudly, "We are determined to win this design competition."

"..." I looked at him who was so proud and looked at the wedding dresses in front of me. I couldn't help but gasp in admiration in my heart.

As expected, Edward had a discerning eye. The designers he invited were all outstanding. These wedding dresses were top- class in terms of material, design, and even cutting. On the contrary, I was worried about William.

"Miss Mu, please have a good look. I'll go and do my work first." The manager looked at me respectfully and left.

Amy and I walked around the whole workshop. When Amy didn't pay attention to me, I opened the bottle in my hand and poured something like sleep powder into the wedding dress in the middle.

This wedding dress should be the best wedding dress for the design competition, which was also a decisive wedding dress. If the person who was responsible for this wedding dress fell asleep, then the whole Xi's Group would not be able to participate in this design competition.

After the powder was slowly soaked in the wedding dress, I immediately took the bottle back. "Ashley, Edward's designers are really amazing. If you don't help us this time, I think there is absolutely no way for us to win."

Amy held her chin, looked at the wedding dress, and muttered to me.

When I heard her words, my lips couldn't help but twitch.

I didn't reply to her words. After looking around the whole workshop, I left there with Amy.

"Did you visit my workshop today?" In the evening, after saying goodbye to Amy, I went back to the villa to rest.

The baby in my belly was quiet for the whole day, and he didn't make much trouble for me, which made me in a good mood.

Edward came to me in the middle of the night and flirted with me. I couldn't fall asleep at all. In the end, I couldn't control myself and had sex with him.

After the passionate sex, I was groggy, and I could only be held in his arms. I could feel his evil breathing.

"Yeah." Hearing his lazy question, I reluctantly opened my eyes and glanced at him. I rubbed my head against his chest and yawned, "I happened to go shopping around your workshop. I'm curious about the wedding dresses you used to participate in the competition, so I went in and had a look with Amy."

"How did you feel?" Edward touched my sweaty long hair, and there were flirtation and pride in his It seemed that Edward was determined to win.

"Very well." I closed my eyes and thought of what I had done, and I felt guilty inexplicably.

"William also took part in this competition. He really didn't give up his gangster designs." Edward mentioned William, and I didn't know whether he was intentional or not.

When I heard this, I just smiled coldly and said, "Every company has the opportunity to participate. Isn't it the key to select the winner this time?"

"Who do you think will win?" Edward turned over and held my body with both hands. I couldn't understand the expression on his handsome face.

With my eyes wide open, I looked at his evil and handsome. For a moment, I couldn't figure out what he meant by asking me this question.

I pursed my lips and did not answer his question. He just lowered his head and gently kissed me. He bit down on my lower lip and said, "Ashley, can we be like this for the rest of our lives?"

For the rest of my life?

Edward, were you afraid that I would know the truth? Or were you afraid that I would know what you had done?

I allowed Edward to do what he wanted and didn't move.

"No matter what choice you make, I won't hate you, nor... blame you."

When I was in a daze, I heard his lonely and even sad voice.

Did he feel lonely? Was he sad?

Perhaps, everything was just my illusion. Edward was rich and powerful, how could he be so fragile?

The opening ceremony of the design competition was coming soon.

Every design company in Beijing wanted to win this competition. Because the winner could enter the big shopping mall in France, and there would be a lot of benefits.

For a company, this was a chance to become famous and improve its international status.

Edward was getting busy these days. I promised Amy that I would help William. These days, when Edward was taking a rest or out of the villa, I would draw design drafts.

Finally, the day before the competition, I finished the design draft and asked Amy to give it to William.

Amy took the design draft and gave me a package.

"What's this?" I looked at the package in my hand and looked at Amy with some doubts.

Amy shook her head and said, "G.M.Xiao asked me to give it to you. Fie said that as long as you look at it, you will understand."

After speaking, she left because she had work to do.

I opened the package and found that there was a box inside. When I opened the lid of the box, I saw what was inside.

There was a recording pen and some photos inside. I picked up the photos and looked at them. It turned out to be... my father's photos...

I hadn't seen my father's photos for a long time. In the photo, my father was wearing a black suit. His facial features were handsome and kind. His familiar face made me burst into tears.

I touched the photo in my hand. When I was lost in thought, I received a phone call from William.

"You know, Will and his company have been eyeing our Xi's Group covetously. This time, they sent killers to kill me. They did something to my car. If I don't get on the car, they will definitely not let me

go.

"What do you want me to do?"

"I need you to drive the car to relax their vigilance and get rid of them."

"Yes, I will not let you down."

Then their conversation stopped. There was an explosion, and then I heard my father's weak voice. He asked Gramps Xi to take good care of me. At that time, Gramps Xi promised to let me become Edward's wife, saying that he would take care of me for the rest of my life and let me live a good life in the Xis.

I didn't continue to listen.

I put the recording pen on the table, got up, and came to the window.

Outside the window, the wind started to blow. The faint breeze lifted the curtains and blew over my cheek quietly.

I pursed my lips and clenched my fists with a bit of heaviness in my eyes.

Was the truth really like this? Was this the truth about my father's death?

I used to think grandpa was a kind person, but it turned out that he was such a hypocritical person.

What should I do? Dad... What was I going to do?

The next day, I went straight to Mark.

My mother said that Mark was working in a car shop as a salesman.

Although I didn't believe that Mark had already corrected his errors and made a fresh start, when I went to find him, his tone and attitude made me have a completely new appraisal of him.

"I've changed. Don't worry, the cruel and vicious Mark is dead." Mark poured me a glass of water and looked at me with an unusually sincere attitude.

His colorful hair had been dyed black. I nodded and said, "It's best for you to be aware of this. Mark, I'm here to ask you something."

"You want to ask about dad, don't you?" Mark said directly before I could say anything.
