Chapter 688
Edward did not realize that the woman beside him had become as stiff as a sculpture, all that was left was a pair of beautiful pitch-black eyes that was rolling around randomly. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Felicity mustered up her courage and wanted to say something but she failed in the end.
It took a lot of effort for her and Edward to get back together.
Felicity's two hands tightly gripped her skirt, to the point where she was about to clench her palms that were drenched in cold sweat.
"Forget it, maybe my little brother has changed. I haven't interacted much with him in all these years and this is the dereliction of duty on my part as his brother. I've always cared about whether he had enough money or not, but I haven't truly become a family member and want to get to know him. From today onwards, I must pay more attention to him." Edward suddenly thought back to himself.
When Felicity heard his words, she became even more panic-stricken.
She knew that the affection Edward had for his brother wasn't only from the mouth but also from the bottom of his heart. It was precisely because of their brotherly love that stopped Felicity from wanting to tell him the truth.
They were actually very close to each other, how could Felicity bear to destroy their feelings just because of her?
Maybe she was thinking too much, and Edward might not continue his investigation. After all, he had just said that he did not know much about his younger brother, so maybe Joshua had really changed?
"Why aren't you speaking?" Edward rose his head, borrowing the light from the street lamp outside the window, he asked her.
Felicity laughed nervously, "What can I say? I only admire the good feelings you brothers have for each other, but I don't have such brothers and sisters."
"When we get married, my little brother will be your little brother. You can also care for him as much as I do. When we get married, you'll be his sister in the future. You have to take care of my little brother for me." Edward said with a teasing tone.
Care about him?
She wouldn't dare to take care of him even if she was beaten to death. She only felt that it would be best if she and Joshua never met again in the future and it would save her from the embarrassment.
"Then we'll get married first!" Felicity's tone was a little tense.
"Are you blaming me for not giving you a wedding earlier?" Edward asked somewhat sensitively.
"No, that's not what I meant!" Felicity felt her heart ache and immediately shook her head and explained: "I just felt that it's still too early to think about it, your brother has already found a girlfriend, in the future there will be a princess caring for him, taking care of him, as his sister, I'm afraid I won't care too much."
"Felicity, other than not being able to give you a title, I can give you anything. You enjoy all the power
that a wife has, including mine, as well as my feelings and sincerity." Edward said in a voice with slight sadness, as if he was comforting her lost heart.
Felicity's entire body trembled.
Indeed, other than Edward not marrying her, the amount of love he had for her was definitely not less than any husband.
Thinking about how Edward had treated her so well and doted on her so much, but what about her? She was actually hiding such a huge secret.
Felicity suddenly felt very uncomfortable and blamed herself.
"Edward, if... Would you be angry if a man confessed to me one day?" After feeling sad for a while, Felicity suddenly mustered up the courage to ask Edward a very foolish question.
Edward suddenly stepped on the brake, he stopped his car in the middle of the road and looked at her with surprise: "Who confessed to you again?"
Felicity was so scared by his sudden action that her heart almost stopped. She quickly explained in a hurry voice: "I'm not talking about anyone, I just want to ask you, if I was confessed, would you be angry?"
Edward squinted and saw that she did not have any change in expression, he only said indifferently: "Of course I’ll be angry!"
"Why’ll you be so angry? You know it well, sweet-heart. You are the only one I love." On the surface,
Felicity smiled but her heart was anxious and uneasy.
After Edward heard her words, he only let out a light snort, "Has someone already confessed to you? Was it that Bryant again? He still has evil intentions towards you, huh?!"
Felicity's heart jumped heavily.
Should she tell him a kind lie?
She should not have asked this question.
Now it was worse, how was she going to answer this question, in order for Edward to ignore it?
It was indeed a lie that would be punished by the God. A lie required countless lies to make a full circle.
"Don't be angry, okay? No matter who confesses to me, I will not be moved. I will only wholeheartedly love you." Felicity felt that Edward was like a beast that was about to erupt, although he was calm and composed, but, if she did not listen to his words, she was afraid that in the next second, this man would explode.
The only way to comfort him was to say a few words of love times.
Sure enough, this method was effective,
Edward's tense face slowly melted and in the next second, he extended his hand to her petite body and gently hugged her.
Felicity obediently leaned on his shoulder, following that, the man's thin lips came over and kissed.
Her heart trembled uncontrollably once again.
All of her worries seemed to have been comforted.
Edward kissed her for a long time before letting her go and said with a deep and hoarse voice. "Except me, you are not allowed to fall in love with anyone else, do you understand?"
"You're such a bully, okay?" Felicity could not help but chuckle.
"You know what kind of person I am, and my love is just that tyrannical. Since I've decided on you, it must be you! As for you, don't ever betray me. I don't know what will happen after I get angry." Edward had to give her a good reminder, not to easily anger him.
Felicity was slightly stunned.
Had she already provoked him?
"Alright, I promise you. I will only fall in love with you. Edward Hughes, do you hear me? I only love you!" Felicity seemed to want to console him and also seemed to want to remind herself, as she said the word "love" twice in a row.
The man's thin lips curled up as he laughed contentedly. He reached out his hand to pinch her cheek. "Alright, I understand!"
Seeing that he was smiling, the atmosphere became better, and only then did Felicity secretly heave a
sigh of relief.
God, it was too dangerous. She felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Fortunately, she had made him happy. What should she do?
This time she successfully pleased him.
However, what should she do in the future?
"Let's go, before the children disturb us, it's time for us to do our own things!" When he kissed her seconds before, Edward had already lost control of himself.
Felicity's heart trembled.
She did not expect Edward to be so bold.
Finally the old lady had finally agreed to meet them but he was going to do this kind of thing.
"It's better not to do it tonight. Let's have it another day…" Felicity wanted to persuade him, because she was really afraid. If it reached the old lady's ears, her image would be ruined.
In the old lady's eyes, Edward was not wrong, she was the only one who was guilty.
