A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 33

After I slept and felt better, I just opened the bedroom door then heard a low and gentle voice from Edward in the living room.

I stood at the door and looked at Edward who was leaning against the window. He was playing with a lighter in one hand and holding a phone in the other. He was tall and straight, his cold body shape became softer when he spoke in a gentle tone.

Who is on the phone, the answer is clear.

I suppressed the pain in my heart and tried to ignore it.

I was about to leave secretly, but after moving a step, I was targeted by a dark and deep gaze.

I suddenly froze, slowly turning around, I saw Edward holding the phone, looking at me dully.

"Then, I will wait for you in Peking. You must come back soon." The whole room became extremely quiet. It was so quiet that I could hear Betty's charming and gentle voice on the other side of the phone.

I sneered secretly, looking at Edward with provocation and sarcasm in my eyes.

Edward closed the phone, strode towards me, took my hand, and walked towards the door.

"Hey, what are you doing?" I was irritated by his sudden action and couldn't help but shake his hand away. But Edward was so strong that he held me tightly and he refused to let me go.

"I'm hungry. Let's eat."Edward said indifferently. He pulled me and opened the door regardless of whether I agreed or not.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, we met William who came to find me.

I suddenly froze. William was a little surprised at first, but he quickly recovered. His handsome face still had a considerate and elegant gentleman smile: "Edward, why did you come to Paris? And ... came out of Ashley's room? "

After saying that, William glanced at me with a meaningful look.

I recovered my mind, shaking my hand and saying, "William, don't get me wrong, I..."

"Ashley is my wife. Is there anything wrong with me coming out of her room?"

"Wife? Edward, have you forgotten? You and Ashley are divorced, so Ashley is not your wife anymore." William with a smiling face, but his eyes became very sharp.

For a moment, I was scared by William like this.

In my memory, William was a gentle young man. When did he have such a sharp expression?

When I was in a daze, Edward had already grabbed my wrist and held me tight. He sneered and said, "So what? As I said, Ashley is my wife. Any problem with this?"

Edward's rogue words made me surprised and panic. I struggled to break free from Edward's embrace and said with a sullen face, "Edward, that's enough. Since I've said it, I won't expose what Betty has done. I'll do it. You don't have to do this."

"Ashley." Edward seemed to be angry with my words, and his dark eyes flashed a bit of a terrifying chill.

I looked up fearlessly and looked at Edward's horrified eyes, saying indifferently: "You can go, William and I are going to eat."

"How dare you." Hearing that I was going to dinner with William, Edward's eyes became extremely gloomy, as if I was his wife who had an affair.

I glanced at Edward indifferently, ignored his words, embraced the arms of William, and deliberately made an intimate gesture in front of Edward: "William, ignore him, I think he has an abnormal brain today, let's go to the restaurant to eat."

"G.M.Xi, Ashley, and I leave first." William glanced at Edward with a cold look.

"William, I warned you not to get close to Ashley." William and I walked no more than two steps, and behind it came Edward's extremely dark and low sound.

Suddenly a confusion appeared in my mind.

Didn't William say that he was a classmate of Edward? Why does the relationship between Edward and William seem ... very subtle?

They didn't look like classmates, but enemies.

"What? Are you feeling anxious?"

William turned around and said something that I couldn't understand.

I also looked back, and I saw Edward gaze at William with the cold and quirky eyes.

"What happened between us has nothing to do with Ashley."

"You think too much, I just like Ashley, and ... I am chasing Ashley, is it true that GMXi's want to participate in Ashley's love life? What identity can you involved with? I advise you to stay with your beloved Betty, so as not to let her do anything crazy again, it is very scary when the woman is jealous."

William said something meaningful, glanced at Edward, and pulled me away.

William and I walked into the elevator of the hotel. When the elevator door slowly closed, I saw Edward bent his back and his expression was hidden by the messy bangs. But I could see his lonely expression.

Lonely? Why would I think of this word?

Maybe I was wrong? How could a man of distinguished status like Edward show such a lonely expression?

I pouted with self- mockery and lowered my eyebrows, gently touching my belly.

"Do you still like Edward?" A faint and husky voice appeared above my head.

I touched my belly and couldn't help but pause for a moment.

I licked my lips, took out the room card, swiped it, and walked into the suite.

It was very quiet inside, and the decoration was the same as when I left. I couldn't tell how I felt at the moment.

Maybe it was a loss, or maybe...

Happy?

Rubbing my unwell temples, I picked up my bathrobe and walked into the bathroom.

Just after taking a shower, I heard the phone in the living room ringring.

I walked to the table, picked up the phone, glanced at the caller ID, and my eyes were slightly dark.

It was Betty.

"Ashley, is Edward there?" After hesitating for a long time, I answered the phone call from Betty. I didn't expect that Betty was questioning me as if she was interrogating a prisoner.

In front of me, Betty even didn't want to pretend. Well, I didn't want to put on an act with Betty, too.

I sat on the sofa, touching my belly with my fingers, taunting: "Miss Fang's words really puzzled me. You want to find Edward, why did you call me?"

"Don't pretend. Edward said that there is something of a company to deal with in Paris. You happen to be in Paris to take part in the design competition. You will definitely try your best to seduce Edward. Ashley, you and Edward have divorced. His wife will be me soon. Stay away from Edward. Do you understand?"

Betty threatened me righteously.

Upon hearing Betty’s words, my facial look became unfriendly.

"So what if I want to seduce Edward? Oh, I forgot to tell you that I just had sex with him the day before I came to Paris. It wasn't me who took the initiative to do that. It was Edward's intention. Didn't you make him satisfied on the bed?"

"Ashley, what are you talking about? You dare say it I provoked Betty on purpose. I didn't expect that Betty couldn't stand the provocation such as this. She became hysterical.

I dug my ears, changed a posture, and looked coldly: "As long as you are not deaf, you should have heard what I said. I warn you not to do those things again. Otherwise, I won't be polite to you."

"Ashley, you b*tch, listen clearly. If you dare to seduce Edward, I will definitely teach you a lesson. Do you hear me?"

Betty's roar was not elegant at all, and the phone was hung up by me. I threw my mobile phone on the table and stared out of the window with cold eyes.

It was for the sake of Edward, and it was the last time.
