Chapter 248
Edward flicked the ash with his slender fingers and said blandly, “My family still doesn’t know about my marriage with Nelissa. Keep it a secret and don’t make it public. Whether she can enter my Hales family safely depends on you.”
Yifan felt that Edward had given him a high hat. If this matter did not go well, he’d better not get involved in this mess. “Don’t say it, don’t say it.” He took a drag on his cigarette and said, “But are you too risky? Are you sure it’s her?”
At their age, there was no such thing as romance or love. More importantly, it was for the long-term stability of the future. To find a woman with a good character to marry, one was to give an explanation to her family, two were to give an explanation to the society, and three was to give herself an explanation. For example, to complete a choice, getting married early and get along with each other early would be much easier in the future.
But no matter how he looked at it, he didn’t think that Nelissa was suitable for Edward. He didn’t care about her character. After all, she was not familiar with him. It was just that she was too young. A 23-year-old girl should have just stepped into society. She was the age to enjoy the pursuit of men. She hadn’t had enough fun in this colorful world and wasn’t suitable for a stable life after marriage.
She was not even a good candidate for a wife. Instead, she looked pretty and pure. She was the type that Edward liked.
Edward put out the cigarette butt and opened his thin lips. “I proposed to her.”
Yifan knew that his good friend was sincere this time. There were not many women who could make Edward willingly get married. Otherwise, he would not have delayed his marriage with Sophie all these years. Now that he broke up with Sophie, it was quite in line with Edward’s character to marry a girl who was 11 years younger than him.
When you’re arrogant, you’re not afraid of anything. You’ve always done whatever you want.
He said, “You really dare to do it. You got a marriage certificate with a girl without a word. Even my old man can’t accept this kind of thing, let alone your two elders in your family. Why don’t you take her to be familiar with your elders first? It’s not too late to talk about marriage after everyone has a good impression. Your behavior is too radical and improper. In my superior’s words, hurting the enemy will bring harm to yourself.”
“No wonder you can’t get a wife.” Edward stopped talking to him and went back. He thought that if his wife, son, and daughter ran away without getting married, he would lose more.
Edward returned to the ward and saw the female nurse examining Nelissa’s body. The loose hospital gown was unbuttoned, revealing her snow-white chest. He quickly closed the door so that no one could see him.
After the female nurse finished checking, Nelissa buckled the button. He walked over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Nelissa lowered her head, buckled her buttons, and said to him, “I felt a little pain in my chest just now. The nurse looked at it for me.”
Edward bent down and helped to button Nelissa’s clothes with his slender fingers. He frowned and asked the nurse, “Is there anything wrong with her?”Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“It’s okay. I just need to control my emotions. I can’t be too excited,” the female nurse said with a smile. When she went to get a blood bag for Nelissa, she peeked at Edward a few times. She saw him respectfully button her little girlfriend’s medical gown. His noble hand finally grabbed her little hand and gently rubbed it.
He did not kiss her, but this movie was already affectionate enough for others. It was like a beautiful love movie. When their skin touched each other, there was room for imagination, which made Edward look charming and affectionate. He only saw Nelissa’s face, which was slightly bowed, suddenly raised and smiled gently at the man.
Edward kissed Nelissa’s lips, which were smiling. Then he handed Nelissa’s little hand to the female nurse, who was getting a blood transfusion.
The female nurse blushed secretly. She had just changed shifts and did not know how much she loved her little girlfriend. Now it seemed that the relationship between the two was very good. They had to send bodyguards to guard the hospital and take good care of her. Unexpectedly, this time, the playboy really stopped and planned to make up his mind.
The female nurse carefully prepared the blood transfusion for Nelissa. Before leaving, Edward said without looking back, “By the way, lock the door.”
The female nurse did as she was told.
Edward walked to the window and pulled up the curtains on both sides to cover the bright room. He returned to Nelissa’s side and lifted the hem of her clothes, revealing her snow-white skin…
The man’s eyes were looking at them at will.
“What are you doing?” Nelissa wanted to cover her chest with her hand, but it was cold and hot. She could only feel her chest trembling.
“Where did you say it hurts? Let me have a look,” Edward said. His long and slender hand caressed Nelissa’s chest inch by inch. His palm was dry and stained with a woman’s skin. He could feel the warmth in his heart. When he looked up, his face was already flushed red. He raised his eyebrows and said, “What bad things are you thinking about? I just want to know what makes you uncomfortable.”
Nelissa rolled her beautiful eyes and felt that he was very bad, but she couldn’t tell what was bad about him.
“It’s okay, the nurse said it’s okay.” She pointed out a place for Edward. There was indeed a deep bruise there.
Edward frowned and lowered his head. His warm, thin lips kissed the bruise, and his breath brushed over the warm skin of his heart. The tip of his heart trembled as if it had penetrated through the skin and hit his heart.
There was only love and pity in the short kiss. Edward pulled down the hem of Nelissa’s clothes and tidied them up for her. She warned her in a low voice, “In the future, if you want to take off your clothes, remember to call the nurse to lock the door. If the man who comes in is not me, but someone else, I will be angry.”
Nelissa’s body belonged to him, so she had a strong desire to possess him.
Nelissa responded with a “hmm” and said, “Got it.” She was also afraid that another man would come in. Fortunately, it was Edward.
After a while.
Edward opened the door of the ward. There were already several patients outside. Yifan was talking to his colleagues. Seeing Edward’s eyes, he asked his colleagues to go in to see Nelissa. After the case was settled, several colleagues went back to the police station first.
Nelissa had lost an hour and a half of her blood. Edward settled her down and left with Yifan. He bought a can of beer from a nearby convenience store, pulled it open, and took a sip.
Yifan said, “Drink in the morning?”
Edward replied, “I’m awake.” Since last night, he had not slept at all. He kept thinking and was inevitably a little tired. He threw his car key to Yifan, opened the door of the passenger seat and said, “I’m drunk. You drive.”
Seeing him sitting in the passenger’s seat, Yifan leaned back comfortably with his eyes closed to rest. The can of beer was placed on an item beside him and did not move. He resigned himself to his fate and became the driver.
An hour later, they went to the villa area where Edward lived.
Yi Fan showed his police certificate to the manager of the villa area. With Edward’s help, he soon got all the records of that year, including the surveillance video.
The two of them checked each other and found that there were registered license numbers in and out of the car. Edward read ten lines, and he was a little familiar with one of the license numbers. He remembered that it was Sophie’s license plate, a white BMW.
