Chapter 108: Enjoy the Temporarily Happy and Sweet Life.
Edward touches Alice's head affectionately, and then said solemnly, "Alice, it's not that I don't let you eat. But the doctor said you are still weak, and your stomach needs to adapt. You can't eat too much at once. Otherwise, it will increase the burden on the stomach." Alice looks at Edward's serious expression suspiciously. Well, well. It's just a bowl of porridge. She can stand it!
"Do you want to watch the live video?"
Edward calmly changes the topic, but he feels like a blessing in disguise.
After Alice comes out of prison, she isn't indifferent to him anymore. Now, she can get along well with him which often reminds him of the happy times they once spent together.
See, now in front of him, she can act like a spoil child. In the past, if Alice wanted him to go to a movie, as long as she acted like a spoil child to him, he would agree.
Edward takes the computer to the bed, then hugs Alice. They watch the video together.
It seems their relationship gets a little better after he saved her and took care of her.
Alice's body is slightly stiff, but she just hesitates for a while. She doesn't push Edward away. This is already a great progress.
They two carefully watch the video. No matter how many times they watch it, the car in the video is the one that Edward gave to Alice. Even looking at the figure of the driver in the car, it really looks like Alice. Alice becomes more panicked. She holds Edward's hand and says, "Edward, believe me. I didn't do it."
Edward feels sorry for Alice but he feels angry more.
Alice's panic is not pretending. He knows how much she has suffered these days because of this case. This time, he will investigate the matter clearly.
How could his woman be bullied like this by others?
But at the same time, Edward is a little angry that Alice is unwilling to trust him. He has told her many times that he absolutely believes her, but the problem is that Alice doesn't believe him.
This is where he feels sad. They have experienced so much together and once trusted each other. Why do they become like this?
Today, five years later, when Edward goes further step to Alice, Alice will take a step back. She wants to keep a distance from Edward, but Edward can't let her succeed.
This woman belongs to him. This woman is the one he has decided to spend the rest life with.
He let her leave five years ago, but five years later, he must hold her firmly. Without his permission, she can't leave him.
Edward hugs Alice tightly, pats her on the back to comfort her, and then slowly analyzes with her when she is not so excited.
"Alice, I absolutely believe in you. Don't worry. I know you didn't do it. I will find out the truth and avenge you. Don't worry about it. You have to take care of yourself."
Looking at Edward's affectionate gaze, Alice tells herself not to fall into it... But the beating heart, the suffering in prison, and the missing of nights makes her gently hug Edward.
Just let her be willful once...
......
Joanna hasn't gone out for three days. So many people have seen that she was beaten by Edward that day. She loves beauty and pays attention to image. She will never allow herself to leave an imperfect impression to others. Outside Joanna's room, George Hale comforts Joanna for a long time, then Joanna is willing to come out.
As soon as George sees Joanna's face, he's immediately furious, wishing to kill Edward.
His daughter, his beautiful and lovely daughter has two slapping prints on the face.
Edward, how dare you!
Not only did Edward publicly break off the engagement with the Hale family, but also took the suspect from the prison, and even directly hit Joanna!
These things are all humiliating him!Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Edward dares to treat his Hale family like this. Does he really think he is powerful?
If it's not that his daughter likes Edward, who does Edward think he is? He is really lawless. Now that Edward doesn't know the rules, he, George, will teach him a good lesson!
Edward is happy that Alice has finally returned to him as before. After separating so many years, they're finally together again. Time will eventually guide people to find their right persons, and then they will hand in hand to end this life.
But Alice is in anxiety. After she is out of prison, she has been in poor health and she has intermittent low-grade fever.
Edward has been with her. No matter what he is doing, his focus is on her.
Every meal, it's Edward who personally feeds her. If she feels uncomfortable, Edward will definitely know before her. There are a lot of bruises on her body, so she needs to be massaged. Edward doesn't want others to touch her body, so he learns professional massage techniques from the doctor. He gives her massage and applies medicine to her every day after the shower.
Even he will make her the soup she wants to eat. No matter what she requests, as long as it has nothing to do with her health, Edward will satisfy her one by one.
A happy life seems to be within reach. A caring and gentle husband, two lovely children. What a wonderful life!
Because she misses the two children, Edward even takes the two children over. Seeing they are getting along well, Alice feels that she doesn't have the heart to refuse Edward's love.
But she knows that everything that is calm now is the quiet before storm. A bigger storm will eventually come.
They just have to enjoy the temporarily happy and sweet life.
The nightmarish life that some time ago seems to have been completely gone. Now, life is peaceful.
Alice is greedy for the peace of this moment. She is unwilling to think about her result, just hoping that all this will not end too soon...
......
George finally takes actions in secret. His dissatisfaction with Edward accumulates to the peak.
According to his investigation, he has known that Alice is staying in Edward's villa to recuperate. Edward uses his own power to suppress the pressure from the police station.
Originally, George wants to act on Edward as soon as possible, but after Janet learned the matter, she keeps calling Joanna to apologize, hoping that she could mediate it and not let George really act on Edward.
"Joanna, you are a good girl. I will definitely give you what you want. Don't worry, I will never let that bitch, Alice, stand in your way!"00000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
