I frowned, looked at Stewart unhappily, and said.
Then Stewart asked, "What happened between you and Edward? He has been looking for you after you falling off the cliff. You should miss him very much. Why do you..."
"Stewart, did you perform the operation after I married Edward?" I interrupted Stewart, looked at him, and asked.
Stewart did not expect that I would ask him this matter that had happened so long ago, and his whole body froze.
"It's you, isn't it?" Stewart was the only one who was able to perform the operation without letting me know. That was to say, Stewart and Edward hid it from me together.
Thinking of this, I felt a sharp pain in my heart again.
"Ashley, it had happened a long time ago. At that time, Edward always felt that he should like Betty, and he never refused her requests. At that time, Betty needed a new kidney to save her life, and your kidney happened to match hers, so Edward..."
"So he gave my kidney to Betty regardless of my will? Have you ever asked me?" I said loudly.
Stewart's face was pale. He smiled bitterly and said, "We were indeed wrong. I asked Edward before. You know that he is a stubborn person. Besides, Betty kept saying that she was going to die, so Edward..."
"Get out." I didn't want to hear how stupid Edward was at that time. I felt very sad as long as I thought of this.
"Ashley, Edward wanted to give your kidney to Betty at that time indeed, but later he..."
"Get the hell out of here!"
I didn't want to hear anyone defend Edward. I grabbed a pillow and threw it at Stewart.
Seeing that I was so excited, Stewart didn't dare say anything more. He had no choice but to leave.
After he left, I hugged my body and burst into tears.
Edward, I hated you... You b*stard, you idiot, you stupid...
How could you believe Betty's words? Since you wanted my kidney, why didn't you tell me? Why did you have to use such a sneaky way...
I couldn't dismiss this matter from my mind, and I couldn't forgive Edward.
The news that I came back caused a great stir in Beijing. I didn't pay attention to it and invited an expert doctor to take care of Scott's body every day.
Every day, I talked to Scott. Looking at her who was always sleeping, I felt so sad in my heart.
I desperately wanted to go to the Xis to see Ashe, but I didn't want to see Edward, so I could only go there secretly.
I saw Ashe playing with Ethel in the garden.
I didn't expect that Ethel lived in the Xis again. I knew that Edward had gone out for a meeting, so he wouldn't go back to the villa for the time being and I wouldn't meet him.
I stood at the gate of the villa. Looking at Ashe who had grown much taller, I wanted to cry.
Ashe...
"Madam, you're back." The housekeeper saw me and walked to me.
Seeing the housekeeper's old face, I said gently, "I haven't seen you for a long time."
"It's good that you has come back safely."
The housekeeper wiped his tears and said to me.
"I want to see Ashe."
"Okay." The housekeeper asked someone to open the door and let me in. I walked toward the garden. When I saw Ashe having so much fun with Ethel, I said to him who was running not far away with tears in my eyes, "Ashe, I'm back."
I thought that Ashe would rush to me after he saw me. However, when he saw me, he turned around and hugged Ethel.
Looking at his actions, I felt sad.
"Ashe, I'm mommy."
Ashe was scared by me when I killed Betty. It was all Caesar's fault. If it weren't for him, Ashe couldn't be afraid of me.
"Ashley, Ashe doesn't want to see you now." Ethel had changed a lot. At least, she looked much healthier than before. Maybe because her was living a better life, her skin had become very good and she looked fashionable. She was no longer as thin as she used to be.
"Didn't I ask you to live in another villa? Who asked you to live here?" I frowned and asked Ethel when I saw Ashe was so dependent on her.
Ethel looked at me, then held Ashe's hand and said, "Eddie hopes that I can stay with Ashe, so I moved here. I can take care of Ashe and Eddie."
When I heard it, I was so angry.
I knew that Ethel loved Edward so much. Edward was really a b*stard, what was he thinking about?
"Madam, are you going to have dinner here tonight? I'll ask the servants to prepare it right away."
When Ethel and I looked at each other, the housekeeper walked to me and said respectfully.
When the housekeeper called me madam, Ethel's face was a little pale, as if she was very sad.
"No, I'll leave right away." I suppressed my dissatisfaction and said to the housekeeper.
I clenched my fists and tried my best to restrain myself from hugging him.
I couldn't forgive him.
"Stop Edward. Don't allow him to..."
"Ashley, do you think they can stop me?" I came to sense. Just as I ordered the housekeeper, Edward strode in.
I looked at Edward who was standing against the light. His side face was dyed with a layer of golden light by the sunshine. At this moment, he was as handsome as an exquisite ice sculpture.
"Miss..." The housekeeper looked at me and Edward in a dilemma. It seemed that he didn't understand why I didn't want to see Edward.
"Take those servants out first. No one is allowed to come in without my permission." I put on a cold face and ordered the housekeeper.
After looking at me worriedly, the housekeeper left with those servants.
After they left, I looked at Edward and said, "Didn't I tell you that I don't want to see you..."
"Ashley, let's stop arguing... okay?"
Before I could finish my words, Edward had already stepped forward and held me tightly in his arms.
His familiar breathing made me tremble.
I felt that my heart beat so fast.
I bit my lips hard and held back the tears that were going to burst out of my eyes.
"I said that I don't want to see you for the time being..."
"Oh."
I pushed Edward's body and tired to push him away. But he suddenly held my face and kissed my lips.
My lips were bitten by him so hard that I let out a muffled groan.
"Ashley, I'm really... tired. Please." His hoarse and pleading voice sounded in my ears.
My heart ached again. I looked at his handsome face with red eyes, but I couldn't forgive him.
"Ashley, listen carefully. At that time, I wanted to give your kidney to Betty, but later, I changed my mind and let Stewart give mine to Betty. Fortunately, my kidney was also well matched, so I didn't..."
So did Edward give his own kidney to Betty?
