Chapter 105
Nelissa’s mobile screen was still on the photo of Sophie and Edward.
Edward was stunned when he saw that. He raised his eyebrows and lowered his head to get close to Nelissa’s ear. He opened his thin lips and said, “Are you jealous? Just because I took a picture with Sophie and made you lose your temper?”
Nelissa lowered her small face and lay on Edward’s broad shoulder. She looked down at her teeth and said feebly, “Aren’t you leaving yet?”
It was impossible for Edward to leave. She held Nelissa’s slender waist with her arms, looking a little unnatural. For the first time, she explained to the woman, “This photo was taken. I didn’t touch Sophie. I went to her house tonight to have a pure meal with her parents. As soon as I left, I came directly to your house. Do you know that I lost sleep for you last night and was abnormal? Do you think I still have the mood to look after her woman?”
“I know it’s a set-up,” Nelissa said in a muffled voice.
The next moment, Edward pinched her chin and looked straight at her. “Why are you still throwing a tantrum at me?”
Nelissa bit her lip and didn’t say anything. Her eyes were red, and she didn’t know if it was because of the passion or the grievance. Edward felt that it was fun, so he lost his temper. After all, he was only 23 years old, and his temper was a little delicate. He was still young and needed men’s love.
“I only spent an hour eating at Sophie’s house. I waited for you downstairs for two hours, but you still kept asking me to leave. Do you really don’t want to see me?” The more Edward said, the lower his voice became. He stared at Nelissa with burning eyes. “But I want to see you. I miss you so much.”
“I’m going to cook noodles for you.” Nelissa was too embarrassed to continue listening. She got up and went out of the room. Her skin was thin and she liked to listen, but she didn’t want to.
In the kitchen.
Nelissa put on the apron, opened the refrigerator, took the eggs and the meat materials bought in the supermarket tonight, and also hung the noodles with hand.
Edward leaned against the kitchen door, watching the smooth movements of the Qi. He skillfully fried the eggs and lunch meat, while the other side of the pot was boiling noodles and vegetables. After a while, he picked up the soup bowl. The green west orchid and two shrimp were placed on the surface of the soup.
“It’s done.” Nelissa took off her apron and went out with the bowl of noodles.
Edward glanced at the clock. It only took him 10 minutes to finish it.
Nelissa went into the kitchen again, took a pair of chopsticks and a small spoon, and called Edward, “Eat it, or the noodles will be burnt.”
Edward sat at the small dining table. An ordinary bowl of noodles was delicious, but he suddenly smiled.
Nelissa looked at him. “What are you laughing at?”
“I got up early this morning. Eliza hasn’t gone to work yet, and I’m hungry and don’t want to eat the cold food in the refrigerator. It’s hard to cook on my own.” Edward laughed and sighed. He looked at the red stains on the back of Nelissa’s hand that had been splashed by the hot oil, but they hadn’t faded yet.
“Do you think it’s easy to cook? You have to at least be splashed with hot oil for more than 10 years before you can learn how to cook.” Nelissa told Edward with her experience of being experienced. It was difficult to go from extravagant to simple, especially for a God’s favored one like him. He had never suffered a lot and was born very well. He was more prominent and noble than anyone else.
Edward held Nelissa’s little hand and looked at it carefully. It was white and tender, and her skin was very delicate and not rough at all. She should have lived a good life in the past. Had Zayden given it to her?
Nelissa urged him to eat noodles quickly. She had worked hard to cook it.
“Sit down and eat with me.” Edward made a request.
“Wait, I want a glass of water.” Nelissa took her cup of water and went into the kitchen to pour a cup of warm water. Then she took the remaining pills from the drawer in the room.
She pulled out a chair from the dining table opposite to Edward, sat down, picked up a contraceptive pill, and took it with warm water. Then she supported her face with one hand and watched him slowly eat the noodles she cooked. A man with a good appearance was very pleasing to the eye even when he ate noodles.
In terms of visual aesthetics alone, Edward was indeed a man with a lot of ideas. As for his character and temper, it would be fine if he didn’t get angry, but if he got angry, he would be in trouble.
Edward finished a bowl of noodles and even finished the soup. Nelissa asked him when she was tidying up the dishes, “Haven’t you had dinner tonight?”
“It’s not like that.” Edward was obviously disgusted. “It’s hard to eat.”
Nelissa was speechless. There were chefs in rich families, and the dishes they cooked were rich in color and flavor. What was so terrible about delicacies? Were noodles easy to eat?
Nelissa couldn’t be bothered to wash the dishes, so she kept them for the next morning. Edward wrapped his arms around her waist, kissed her, and whispered, “I won’t leave tonight.”
Nelissa was so frightened that she quickly shook her head. “No, Jolene will come to my house for breakfast every morning. You can’t stay here.”
It was Jolene again. Edward snorted in his heart. He picked up Nelissa and went back to her room. He was determined not to leave. He couldn’t sleep the whole night last night. He had to hold her to sleep tonight.
Nelissa let out a soft cry and her feet were dangling in the air. Edward patted her waist lightly and raised his thin lips. “Calm down. Do you want to wake up your daughter and son?”
Nelissa didn’t dare to move. She was carried back to her room by Edward. Seeing him lock the door, she put her arm around his neck and whispered, “I really can’t, Edward… Edward.”
Edward let her go to bed, but she still held his neck and did not let go. Her palm-sized face was very delicate.
Edward raised his eyebrows and said, “I’ll leave before tomorrow morning. I’ll go to bed now.”
“Are you sure you can get up?” Nelissa didn’t believe him. He was obviously a person who got up so heavily!
Edward was taking off his T-shirt. His good-looking hands grabbed the collar of his shirt and took it off from his head, slowly revealing his abdominal muscles and chest muscles. He smiled and said, “You might as well not sleep tonight. How about you watch me leave until dawn?”
“Let’s go to sleep,” whispered Nelissa. Edward hugged her and rolled into the quilt. He turned off the light and said in a pleasant voice, “Go to sleep.”
Lying in Edward’s arms, Nelissa couldn’t resist the tiredness of intimacy and soon fell asleep. Subconsciously, she kept reminding herself to sleep for a few hours. Before dawn, she had to wake up Edward and let him go…
At this time, Nelissa slept until seven o’clock in the morning. She didn’t even know when Edward left.
She turned over under the quilt and touched the empty bed beside her, as if there was still the warmth of a man. She sat up in a daze. There was no Edward in the room. After a while, she calmed down, got out of bed, put on her slippers, and went out to look around the room. Edward really left without leaving any trace, just like he had never been here last night. The deep affection was like a dream.
Nelissa had misjudged a mature man’s self-control. Edward was very self-control, but it usually depended on whether he was willing to do so or not.
When Nelissa returned to her room and saw one or two men’s shirt buttons on the ground, she couldn’t help laughing.
She squatted down, picked them up patiently and carefully, searched the bed, picked them up, and put them in a small box.
Her cell phone rang, and it was a call from Edward.
Nelissa picked up her phone and pressed the answer button. Edward was driving when she heard the sound of a car on the road. He said in a magnetic voice, “The clothes I changed last night are at your place. You wash it for me.”
“Okay,” answered Nelissa. She went to the bathroom and took a look. She asked curiously, “When did you leave this morning?”
“Take a guess.” Edward looked straight at the road in front of the car. He was wearing a howl on his left ear and a faint smile on his thin lips.
“I can’t guess.” Nelissa couldn’t be bothered to think, but she was a little surprised that she slept so well. She couldn’t feel it even if Edward left.
Edward sneered. “Then I’ll spend the night at your house next time until you guess it.”
Nelissa turned to look at herself in the bathroom mirror, blushing. She stopped talking nonsense with Edward. She had a lot of things to do in the morning, so she had to hang up the phone. In the end, she subconsciously reminded him to drive carefully.
Edward responded with a “hmm” over there. Nelissa’s concern was very useful to him.
The call ended.
Nelissa made Edward’s clothes in the basket, suit pants, white shirt, and a pair of… men’s underwear. She blushed and put all her clothes into the washing machine. She planned to wash them tonight. After washing them, she would hang them secretly in the evening. She would take them before Jolene came in the morning.
Anyway, it’s his turn to clean his clothes!
After they were done, Nelissa began to wash up and then made breakfast as usual. Nathan later, Noelle woke up and went to wash her face and brush her teeth. She first prepared two breakfasts for them to pack up their school bags.
Then, he made breakfast for her and Jolene.
After everything was done, Jolene also put on his clothes in the apartment next door and came over for breakfast with his bag.
Half an hour later.
Jolene helped Nelissa take Noelle downstairs for Nathan. After washing her bowl, Nelissa began to change clothes and prepare to go to work. By the time she went downstairs, Jolene had already driven out of the car and was waiting for her.
The two went to work together, like this every day.
On the morning of Victory group’s arrival, Jolene held a small meeting. Many of the big clients or orders were assigned to his subordinates. Of course, there were also some subordinates who had the ability to talk about the big orders. For example, when Nelissa talked about Hales Group’s cooperation, the boss of the company would naturally look at them differently. However, this was only a small group.
Jolene gave Nelissa a few good spots with meat, while the rest were assigned to her. It was obvious that he was biased towards Nelissa.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
In Jolene’s words, the so-called fair competition in the industry depended on everyone’s abilities. interpersonal relationships were also a type of ability. If you had a good relationship with me, it was because you were capable. If someone else wasn’t good with me, it was because he wasn’t good at social communication. Since you were capable, there was nothing wrong with giving you a spot. If others couldn’t eat meat, they would think of ways to eat meat and naturally learn to make progress.
Nelissa benefited a lot from this.
After the meeting, Nelissa received a bunch of roses. She asked who the young man who sent the flowers was. The young man said that it was a man who was good-looking, but he didn’t know who the man was.
Nelissa held the roses and put them on her desk. The gorgeous roses were as beautiful as her shallow eyebrows.
