Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 699

Staring the sadness in his eyes, Eliza stretched out her hands to catch his sleeves.

"You go down first, and leave me alone for a while!" Richard impatiently shook her hands off, and then turned and sat on the sofa, as though he suddenly became cold-blooded.

Eliza was stunned, but she could understand what Richard was feeling right now.

The woman he loved was close at hand but he didn't even have the courage to step forward and talk to her.

He could only watch from the side and do nothing. This was definitely the most painful torture.

"Alright, I'll be going down first!" Eliza tactfully did not disturb him, even though she wanted to say a few words of consolation and concern.

But she was an actor he had hired and paid for. What qualifications did she have, what status did she have to persuade him?

Being treated so coldly by Richard, Eliza was actually not angry at all. She was just a spectator watching this tragic play.

But why?

Looking at this man sitting alone in this lonely place, she felt depressed in her heart.

At this moment, downstairs!

Edward was holding his daughter and sitting on the sofa. Hearing the sound of the car, he immediately put her down and watched his daughter run away.

"Mummy, is this little sister Crystal? Why is she here?" When Arya ran out, she discovered that there was a little guy in Mummy's embrace. She immediately opened her eyes in shock, and when she saw that little face clearly, Arya recognized her.

Felicity grinned as she squatted down and put Crystal down, "That's right, this is Uncle Alan's little daughter, how about you play with her for a while?"

"Alright, I'll give all my toys to her. She can play with all of my toys!" Arya now had the tolerance as an elder sister.

Lynn Wood, who walked in side by side with Felicity, had a bitter expression. When she saw that Edward was also there, she immediately went over and greeted him.

Edward laughed instead: "Lynn is too polite, I will welcome you as a guest anytime, where is your younger brother?"

"Ah, let's not talk about him. In order to chase Anne, he has already left his daughter with me. He flew abroad so early on this morning." Today, in order to take care of Niece, she had her assistant buy a lot of delicious snacks and place them in her office for her but who knew that the little fellow actually liked to cry so much, so she hugged and coaxed her while taking care of her work, causing her to almost lie down on the ground in exhaustion.

Thus, she contacted Felicity and decided to come over to her place to spend tonight.

Of course, Edward understood his good friend well, he was completely serious this time, Anne was the one barrier that Alan has to cross, if he did not pursue her back, Alan would probably regret forever.

"But Brian William will be coming over later!" Lynn had already made an appointment with Brian to come to The Hughes Family to eat. On the way, she also wanted him to partake her hardships.

Felicity stood at the side and smiled as she watched how her daughter played with her little sister.

The only thing that Crystal needed now was her playmate. Seeing such a little sister like Arya, she was really happy.

Arya continuously made faces towards her, making her giggle non-stop.

Seeing this scene, the adults standing by also laughed from the bottom of their hearts.

Edward immediately walked over and looked at Felicity gently: "My brother is back, and has brought his girlfriend with him. They are upstairs, do you want to go greet him?"

Felicity was originally very relaxed with her daughter but after hearing Edward's words, she felt extremely nervous and even her expression became a little dazed.

"Oh, okay! Josh is back and I should go to greet him of course. Moreover, he had even brought a girlfriend with him, so it is indeed a good thing. Lynn, please look after these two little ones. Let's go upstairs!" Felicity said softly.

Lynn immediately nodded. "Don't worry, just leave these two little kids to me, your daughter really knows how to bring up children. You two can also rest assured about having a third child!"

Felicity and Edward were slightly shy.

Lynn did not know that she had said an embarrassing thing. Seeing that the two had strange expressions, she blinked her eyes: "What's wrong? Don't you guys have that thought yet?"

Edward's thin lips slightly hooked up: "That's what we planned to do as well!"

When Felicity heard his answer, she only felt her face turn red all of a sudden.

Fortunately, the old lady did not hear his words. Otherwise, it was unknown what expression she would have on her face.

On the second floor, Eliza was actually feeling a bit embarrassed to go downstairs.

She hesitated at the corridor when she saw Edward and Felicity walking towards her, holding hands.

She was so frightened that her expression froze and she quickly smiled, "Mr. Edward…"

Edward saw that Eliza actually called him as a stranger, thus, he said gently: "Just call me brother, be casual…"

"Good, brother, this must be your girlfriend sister. She's so beautiful!" Eliza's gaze was fixated on Felicity.

Being praised so highly by her, Felicity started to feel a bit shy.

Eliza immediately explained: "My name is Elizabeth Jones, you can all call me Eliza, this is how my family calls me."

"Okay, my name is Felicity, you can also call me Sis!" Felicity smiled and looked at Eliza.

Actually, Felicity had a faint guess about the relationship between Eliza and Richard, they definitely wouldn't be a couple.

Maybe Eliza was just a girl that Richard had invited to help him act together with her.

But no matter what, Felicity still liked Eliza a lot. At the very least, her smile was sincere, and she didn't look like someone who had bad schemes inside heart. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Richard suddenly walked over from the hallway, and called out for his brother lazily. After that, when his eyes saw Felicity, he suddenly dodged and called her sister in a low voice.

Felicity also suddenly felt that the air around her was a little heavy, if it was before, Felicity would definitely not have any other thoughts.

However, at this moment, she might have been feeling guilty and might have been up to something, so she felt that it wasn't natural.

Richard suddenly became silent but Edward did not notice anything and only laughed: "Alright, you can slowly bring Eliza downstairs to chat, Josh, you come up with me, we'll invite grandpa and grandma down."

Richard nodded and silently followed Edward upstairs.
