Chapter 270
It was really strange. Edward didn’t speak, and Nelissa knew what he was thinking. He was waiting for her to explain.
She still remembered that when she first met him, she was most afraid of Edward’s sudden silence. She didn’t understand this man and couldn’t guess what he was thinking. She always felt that when he was silent, he was doing something bad. He looked very shrewd, but now he was different.
Nelissa explained to Edward, “It was really an accident this time. He came to the hospital to see my mother, but he happened to meet Penelope. She knew I was in the hospital, so she came to see me. There’s nothing else between him and me.”
There was nothing else. They were both men, so how could Edward not understand the man’s thoughts? He was very clear about Zayden’s feelings for Nelissa. He was very unhappy that his woman had been kept in his heart by other men, and he was even more unhappy that he had less time to stay with Nelissa than Zayden.
Compared to more than 70 days and nearly Nathan, the great difference was like an egg hitting a rock. Everything became uncertain.
This was the only time. Edward felt extremely uncertain. In fact, during the process of pursuing Nelissa, he was not confident. No matter how excellent he was in the eyes of others, Nelissa thought he was not good. His opponent had a much greater advantage than him.
He and Nelissa had lost part of their past. They only had the present and unknown future.
“When was not an accident? Last time?” Edward looked down at Nelissa and asked, still frowning. Thinking of the situation last time, Zayden was very close to Nelissa, and he used to be very close to Nelissa.
Indeed, Edward was very concerned, so much so that he was jealous and slightly frustrated. He really wanted to know if that person was Zayden. He had liked Nelissa for a long time. If he hadn’t missed so much, the man who had been by Nelissa’s side would have been him.
Edward was unwilling to give up. This kind of emotion had been there for a long time.
However, Nelissa didn’t know this. She didn’t know that in the time she didn’t know, the fate between her and Edward had come earlier.
There has always been an unspeakable secret in Edward’s heart. This secret is a reward that he has been longing to obtain over the years.
“Last time…” Nelissa bit her lip, put her little hand on Edward’s sturdy waist, and leaned against him. “Zayden has something to say to me. You know what happened between me and him in the past. I can’t deny these things in the past. I really have to clarify some things between him and him. I have told him everything that should be said, but he just needs some time to get over it.”
Edward didn’t think so. “He doesn’t want to give you up.”
Nelissa didn’t say anything. Edward lowered his head and gently held her slender waist. He stared at her and asked, “What about you? What do you think of him?”
After hearing this, Nelissa shook her head. She really had no idea. She raised her left hand and showed it to Edward. “I’m married to you. What do you think I can think?” It was because she had no idea that she and Zayden were in a deadlock.
They no longer had a happy ending. She was already married to someone else.
Edward said in a low voice, “If you hadn’t married me, I would have locked you up a long time ago. Do you think any man can tolerate the woman he likes meeting his old lover?” He pinched his warm chin, touched it, and became more and more serious. “I really want to lock you up.”
Nelissa blushed and said angrily, “Edward, you can’t do this!” She thought for a while and said, “I haven’t investigated what happened between you and Anna. You are still looking for Anna, and I haven’t said anything about you. You can’t be so overbearing to me.”
Edward laughed instead. “How did you change your mind? You’re talking about your own business. It’s useless to talk about anything else.”
No matter what he said, Nelissa said, “The nature is the same.”
Edward stared at her for a while before asking, “Which one is the same?”
Nelissa didn’t continue and didn’t want to say anything.
She knew that Edward had a relationship with Anna. It was said that they loved each other very much. If Anna did not leave, it would not be her turn to be with Edward’an now.
She never mentioned it because she had a conflict in her heart. She wanted to pretend to be generous and didn’t care. But when she said it now, she felt a dull pain in her heart.
Perhaps, she didn’t have the right to say that Edward was overbearing, and she herself was the same. If Anna came back one day, she might be more sensitive than Edward.
Nelissa secretly sighed in her heart. She wrapped her arms around Edward’s sturdy waist and leaned her head against his body. She said gloomily, “I won’t say anymore. I won’t quarrel with you.”
Edward raised his eyebrows. “Do you think I’m quarreling with you?” He pulled Nelissa up, but she was as soft as a bone. She held his waist and refused to get up. He curved his lips slightly. “I’m telling you to be serious. Don’t meet Zayden in the future. Do you hear me?”
“Yes,” Nelissa replied softly and agreed.
The two of them stayed warm for a while, and Nelissa’s depressed mood was coaxed by Edward. The feeling of marriage was really different from before. She could feel Edward’s sincerity. He was not perfunctory about this marriage. He was very serious, completely different from the previous illusion of being cynical.
Suddenly, Edward said, “Anna called me before.”
“Huh?” Nelissa looked up at him in surprise.
Edward told Nelissa, “She wants to meet me on the day of your car accident.”
Nelissa was stunned. She remembered that day, Edward seemed to have been guarding her.
Nelissa became inexplicably nervous and asked, “Then, did you go?”
Edward shook his head. “No.” He raised his slender hand, touched Nelissa’s head, and said, “I planned to go, but after knowing that you had an accident, I broke the appointment. I didn’t see her.” He seemed to sigh.
Nelissa didn’t know whether it was a pity or not. She felt a little sad. “Do you blame me? You’ve been looking for Anna for so long, but you were delayed because of me.”
Edward said, “It’s not that I’m not surprised. The reason why I want to tell you is that I want you to know that Anna is not as important as you. Don’t think about these things in the future. Don’t doubt my feelings for you.”
“I didn’t suspect you,” Nelissa muttered, feeling a little sweet in her heart. She reached out with her little white hands to grab Edward’s snow-white collar and asked him, “What happened after that? Didn’t you find Anna? Did you miss him just like that?”
Edward nodded and said, “Okay.”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Nelissa said, “Why didn’t you find someone to replace you?”
Edward looked at Nelissa deeply and suddenly lowered his head to kiss her. His thin lips were sighing. “I forgot.” At that time, all of Edward’s reason was occupied by Nelissa. He suddenly felt that it was no longer important whether he could find Anna or not. He was so tired that he was about to collapse and did not want to care about anything.
Nelissa nodded and said, “Then you really can’t blame me. You forgot it yourself.”
