Chapter 111
He took off his clothes, opened the shower, and poured water on his naked skin to moisten every pore. He squeezed a circle of wet water to carefully rub his body.
“Knock knock knock.” Someone knocked on the door of the bathroom.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Jolene’s voice came in, “Nelissa, have you had dinner yet?”
Nelissa replied, “I ate it.”
After a while, Jolene asked, “Did you eat with Edward?”
“Hmm,” said Nelissa carefully. Jolene didn’t ask her any more and walked out of the door.
After taking a shower, Nelissa pressed the washing machine and washed the laundry on her own. Inside were her and Noelle’s Nathan clothes, as well as the suit that Edward’er had changed last night. Forget it, let’s wash together.
She had an electric stove in her house. At most, she could heat it for him after she heated it. He should be able to wear it.
Nelissa wiped her hair and went out of the bathroom. Jolene was still watching TV in the living room. Noelle had already fallen asleep for Nathan. She walked over to the sofa and sat down. She watched the television in an unnatural manner. It was a blind date between a man and a woman. The two strangers, who had never met before, could actually meet each other’s eyes in an instant. Fate was really wonderful.
Nelissa suddenly had a strange idea. “What will men do to pursue women?”
Jolene circled around the phone and said, “Just send flowers to eat and watch a movie, and then go to bed. With this set, the man almost captured the woman’s hand. However, the drunk man’s intention is definitely to go to bed at the end of the night. A man, a think animal with the lower half of his body.”
Nelissa blushed. She and Edward’er had done these things before…
“What? Edward is courting you?” Jolene naturally thought of Edward. After all, it was only tonight that Nelissa had met him. “Or Jordan?”
Nelissa asked, “What if the two of them pursue me at the same time?”
Jolene crossed his legs and rubbed his chin as he said, “That’s better, Jordan. This kind of love that developed from the campus is very pure. It doesn’t have so many impurities in the grown-ups of society. Furthermore, Edward has a rich young lady as his girlfriend. What right does he have to pursue you?”
Nelissa wiped her hair with a towel and asked hesitantly, “What if he breaks up with Sophie?”
“That’s more like it,” muttered Jolene. He suddenly turned pale with fright. “Nelissa, Edward wants to break up with that young lady for you?”
“What’s wrong with you?” Nelissa didn’t understand Jolene’s surprise. If she were to ask if she was a third party between Edward and Sophie, she would never admit it.
First of all, there was no love between Edward and Sophie. Secondly, she would develop Edward into the current situation. Sophie would indirectly or directly add fuel to the fire.
She had never understood why Sophie was in such a hurry to make Edward a “good sister”.
Which girlfriend liked to share her boyfriend with other women? Sophie and Edward, who were a perfect match, were really weird.
It was possible that most of the marriages of commercial marriages were not true love, nor was it related to happiness.
Jolene analyzed, “I thought that Edward was just fooling around with you and didn’t have any genuine feelings for you. However, since he’s willing to break up with you, he should like you a lot. Even though he knows that you’re a burden, he still chose to end a relationship with you and pursue you. That’s cool.”
Nelissa smiled. “You changed your mind about him so quickly?”
Jolene told the truth. “Men with high looks are always easy to get tolerance. However, if Sophie knew that Edward wanted to break up with her because of you, wouldn’t she have gotten even with you? Women and women are all scheming against each other. I’m afraid that you’ll suffer losses in this aspect. Edward and Jordan, the former is a difficult and difficult mode, while the latter is just an ordinary difficult mode. Do you want to choose Edward? Do you like him?”
“No.” Nelissa shook her head quickly.
Jolene rolled his eyes at her. “If you don’t like him, why are you blushing?”
Nelissa touched her face with her hands and felt a little hot. She smiled awkwardly.
“I don’t care about you anymore. I still have to go to work tomorrow. I’ll go back to my place and sleep. You should go to bed early too.” After watching the last television, Jolene was already sleepy. He had no energy to continue nagging with Nelissa, and his emotional problems couldn’t be ended in a short period of time. Anyway, Jolene always felt that Nelissa’s luck with women was quite good. She was the kind of person who didn’t have to worry about having no man to want her.
After sending Jolene away, Nelissa carefully locked the door. She didn’t know where the key was. She listened carefully to what Jolene said and locked it a few more times. The washing machine’s clothes were also washed and dried.
She took out the clothes one by one and put them into the basket. Then she took them out and hung them on the balcony.
Edward’s black t-shirt was entangled with her bra. She took it out and carefully separated it. She hung it as if nothing had happened. She had a feeling that she had completely accepted this man.
Sigh.
Nelissa rubbed her chest and touched a ring in the middle of it. She took it out and looked at it carefully. She couldn’t help but think of Edward’er. She didn’t know what he meant by putting it on for her.
After drying her clothes, Nelissa went back to her room and was about to go to sleep. Before going to bed, she set the alarm clock on her mobile phone and got up 10 minutes earlier. She put Edward’s clothes away and put them back in the wardrobe so that Jolene could not see them.
Jolene had just begun to change his attitude towards Edward. If he found out that she had secretly severed all ties with Edward, he would have died of anger.
Nelissa turned off the lights in the room and curled up in bed. The lights on her mobile phone flashed. She forced herself to pick it up and check the information.
In the WeChat high school group, there were classmates talking at night, but she never went out to talk. Except for Penelope, other classmates didn’t know that she was Nelissa, and Jordan didn’t know either, right?
He had been diving all the time and did not speak.
The same night.
It was late at night, and Edward was still awake. He had been busy in the study since he sent Nelissa back. There were many things in the company. He didn’t go back to deal with them this afternoon. He was talking on the phone with his assistant Andrew.
The LED computer had been automatically entered into the protective screen, and the huge screen was a photo of Nelissa.
Last time in the amusement park, Edward secretly took photos of her. Later, he used a photo catching app to increase the photo’s value to be the protective screen of his computer. When he was tired of work, he could take a look at her, just like his 3-inch sunshine.
Looking at the photo of Nelissa, Edward’s thin lips curled into a smile.
“Young Mr. Hales?” His assistant, Andrew, didn’t know what was going on. Would Young Mr. Hales only laugh when he was reviewing whether he had reported the wrong work? Would he smile in a fake manner?
“Go on.” Edward pursed his thin lips and said in a dignified voice.
“Yes.” Andrew continued to report on his work today. He had been working with Young Mr. Hales for many years and knew that his boss was a complete workaholic, and he was a perfect person with strict requirements.
The Edward’s image was different from what Andrew really saw.
Edward worked very hard and ran the Hales Group. At first, when he took over the position, he worked overtime day and night for more than ten hours a day. He got used to the president’s position as soon as possible and even made a lot of achievements.
“Young Mr. Hales, the top young master in Haleston City;
Edward, a famous big shot in Haleston City.
The difference between the two was that the former was given to him by the rich and powerful family, and the latter was won by himself.
He guessed that the reason why Edward worked so hard to achieve results and fame was related to the division of the family’s property and shares.
The relationship between Donald’s chairman and his eldest son was very bad, and he and his youngest son, Edward, were not close. However, Donald’s wife was not the mother of his two sons, and the relationship between their families was very subtle.
The more powerful such a big family was, the more serious the conflict of property disputes became.
After talking about business, Edward hung up the phone of his assistant, Andrew. He worked on the computer for a while before he finally finished.
He opened the metal cover of the lighter, lit a cigarette, and took a drag. Leaning against the leather chair on his back, he turned to the window and looked in the direction of where Nelissa lived. He stubbornly believed that the black dot was the balcony of Nelissa’s house.
Edward shook the ashtray with his slender fingers, picked up his phone, and sent a text message to the owner of the flower shop. Every morning and night, there were fresh and air-made flowers in the flower shop, which was very expensive.
This time, Edward asked her to write his surname on the text so that Nelissa wouldn’t mistake him for another man.
The owner of the flower shop sent him a text message asking him what he needed to write on the card.
Edward’s long and slender fingers, which were shaking off the cigarette ash, paused. Instead of giving the boss a clear reply, he dialed an international bank account to Sean.
The phone was soon picked up. Sean had just woken up and washed up. “Good morning.”
Edward leaned lazily against the chair and said, “It’s late at night.”
“Can’t fall asleep?” Sean knew that Edward’s heart disease had always been bad, so he suggested, “Go and find a doctor in the hospital to help you with your medicine. Hasn’t Mr. Harvey’s son returned to China? You can let him see you.”
Edward put out the cigarette butt, opened the window to let the air in, and said lightly, “No, I just want to ask you something.”
Sophie was elegant and straightforward. “Go ahead.”
Edward opened his thin lips slightly. “What do you want to write on a woman’s card?”
On the other side of Sean’s side, there was silence, with only birds chirping and fragrant flowers in the early morning of the lunar year.
In fact, in this respect, Sean and Edward were almost the same. No one had much more experience than anyone else. They were the kind of women who had been chasing after her since childhood. There were very few women who could make Edward or Sean take the initiative to send flowers, let alone spend their time on a card.
No.
The two of them had a very good relationship. They knew each other’s shortcomings and knew each other well.
