Chapter 30 Being Fearful of Edison
Edison still had great strength with his arm in plaster.
Gwenyth didn't know why he suddenly went crazy!
"Clean up here."
Edison stood up and walked out with his long legs, leaving the room a mess.
Gwenyth laboriously moved the desk and sorted out the things on the floor. Then she couldn't help wearing a self-deprecating smile.
She looked like a nanny now.
After tidying up the study, she went out. She sweated heavily and was hungry.
She went to the first floor. She washed her face in the bathroom and went into the kitchen for food.
She happened to make dumplings and porridge for two. Nancy and Ismael ate them all.
She took some fruits from the refrigerator and made a simple fruit salad.
When Gwenyth was dining, the doorbell rang.
She ran to open the door and saw Edison's assistant Andy.
Andy was surprised to see Gwenyth.
But he held back questions in his mind.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Edison had always gone his own way. Andy had been Edison's assistant for two years. He was very good at observing Edison's emotions but could not figure out Edison's thoughts.
Edison was unpredictable.
"Is Mr. Yates here?"
Gwenyth pointed to the second floor. "He should be in the room."
"Okay, thank you."
Andy was dressed in a suit and looked very refined with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
Holding several documents that needed to be signed, he walked straight towards the stairs.
When he stepped on the stairs with one foot, he stopped as if he remembered something. He turned to ask Gwenyth, "Do you know Luna Engles, the eldest Miss of the Engles?"
"What's wrong?"
Andy was silent for a while and felt he should not have talked too much. He shook his head. "Just a causal chat."
He walked upstairs quickly.
Gwenyth stood still, thinking about Andy's question.
She thought, 'The eldest Miss of the Engles?'
'Is she Martin Engles' daughter?'
Gwenyth didn't know Luna but knew that Martin had a son and a daughter. The eldest daughter was about the same age as Susie and only a few months younger than her. Gwenyth didn't know how old Martin's son was and guessed he was probably above 18.
The Engles were a sensitive issue for Gwenyth. Andy suddenly asked her if she knew anyone from the Engles, which made her a little puzzled.
Gwenyth wondered if Edison was investigating her.
...
In the main bedroom on the second floor.
Edison lay on the big bed with his eyes closed, and the air conditioner was set to a very low temperature.
He frowned slightly when he heard the knock on the door.
"Come in."
Edison thought the person who knocked on the door was Gwenyth, so he said impatiently.
Andy pushed open the door and walked to the bed with a few documents.
"Mr. Yates, these documents need to be signed."
Hearing Andy's voice, Edison opened his eyes and sat up. He took over the documents and put them on his lap. He signed at the last page after reading through them carefully.
Seeing Edison's left hand was in plaster, Andy couldn't help asking, "Mr. Yates, aren't you going to the company recently?"
"I'm going to take a week off."
"Do you need some nannies from the housekeeping company?"
"Didn't my nanny open the door for you and let you in?"
Andy blinked and pushed his glasses up his nose. "Do you mean Miss Lovelace?"
"Is there a problem?"
"No."
Andy thought doubtfully, 'Didn't Edison hire Miss Lovelace to be his girlfriend?'
'Why did she become a nanny?'
Edison called Andy last night and asked him to investigate the suspicious black car. Andy found out the owner of the car, but it was confusing that Edison refused further investigation.
Andy and the police had seen the surveillance video. The black car intentionally tried to hit Gwenyth.
If Edison hadn't pushed Gwenyth away in time, given the speed of the black car, Gwenyth would have been hit, seriously injured, or even died.
"Mr. Yates, the eldest Miss of the Engles Luna Engles..."
"What do you want to say?" Edison lazily lifted his eyes and cast a cold gaze at Andy.
Andy shook his head and held back the words that had rushed to his lips.
Maybe Andy thought too much and always felt that Edison treated Gwenyth differently.
In Andy's mind, Edison kept himself aloof from women. But when Andy saw Gwenyth for the first time, she was sitting on Edison's lap, and Edison's arms were encircling her waist tightly.
Yesterday, Edison suddenly ordered someone to send female clothes and shoes to his house. Last night, he was near Gwenyth's home and happened to save Gwenyth.
Today, Gwenyth became Edison's nanny and stayed in the Moonlight Villa to take care of him.
Edison rarely took days off. He only hurt his left hand and didn't affect his work, but he decided to take a week off...
Andy had worked under Edison for two years. He thought Edison was strange recently.
"Are you sure you don't want to investigate Luna?"
Andy plucked up the courage and asked.
He felt Edison would soon order him to do the investigation.
It would be Andy's work sooner or later!
Edison signed several papers silently and threw them at Andy.
Andy swiftly caught all the documents. "Mr. Yates, Luna is famous for insolence. She cruelly beat and disabled a person two years ago. Finally, her grandfather ended this matter in person."
Edison lay back on the bed using his right hand as a pillow. He asked perfunctorily with his eyes closed, "What do you want to say?"
"I wonder if Miss Lovelace has offended Luna."
"So what?
Edison spoke indifferently and seemed not to care about Gwenyth.
Andy was stuck dumb for a moment and didn't know what to say.
He sorted out the documents and said seriously, "I'm sorry for my big mouth."
"Get out."
The door was shut, and Andy's footsteps faded away.
Edison lay quietly and then propped himself against the bed.
He thought of Andy's words with doubt, 'Luna disabled a person two years ago. Her grandfather ended this matter in person.'
'Even such an influential and powerful man like Luna's grandfather interfered in this incident. How serious is it?'
Last night, the black car ran at a fast speed and intentionally wanted to kill Gwenyth...
Edison stepped out of bed and put on his slippers. But after hesitating for a moment, he took his slippers off and returned to bed.
He didn't feel very well. Again, he got out of bed to put on slippers.
He was annoyed by himself.
Edison opened the door, stood in the corridor, and shouted, "Gwenyth."
Gwenyth just finished eating fruit salad. Hearing his voice, she didn't have time to clean up the plate and hurried to the second floor.
"What's wrong?"
She trotted up to Edison.
"Come in."
Edison returned to the room.
Gwenyth saw the big bed through the open door and was a little fearful.
She used to have sex with Edison all night long in this room. Thus, she dared not to enter the room and feared that Edison wanted to make love.
Edison sat down on the sofa and found Gwenyth still standing outside the room.
"Didn't I ask you to come in?"
Gwenyth folded her hands behind her back and stood uprightly, "Mr. Yates, just speak directly. I can hear you here."
