Chapter 84: Are you so unwilling?
He holds down her and looks at her directly. That kind of stare makes her want to look away but his hand holds onto her chin preventing her from moving. He looks possessively as if she could only be his. He continues to hold her down and moves to her ear and whispers, "You can only be mine."
Every inch of her makes him crazy like she was the only antidote for him. The more she resisted, the more it excited him.
Although she opened her eyes, her entire body stiffens up and she lets him kiss wherever he wishes, but he became furious. "Alice, are you so reluctant to be with me?"
He had seen the way she enticed him with her beauty and because of then compare to now, makes him even more furious.
Seeing her bite her lips and an expression of reluctance like she was being forced, absolutely enrages Edward. He stops what he is doing and laughs coldly, "Very good! Only you can do it to this extent. Alice!" Even when he canceled his marriage to Joanna, even though he did so much for her, did she accept what he is doing for the sake of Susie?
Edward leaves and she is alone in the sparse villa.
After a while, Alice picks up her clothes and stands in the bathroom looking into the mirror at herself. The red marks on her neck clearly show what happened.
It looks like she has offended him so what will happen to her mother Susie?NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
She didn't want to have anything to do with him but fate pulled them together again. Why...
Alice squat next to the bed for the entire night.
...
The next day, the glaring sun rays shine onto her and wake her up. She feels dizzy when she opens her eyes as she looks at the familiar and yet strange surroundings. In a moment, she couldn't tell whether it is a dream or reality. This was once her home with Edward and they were in love for seven years. In the end, they divorced...
She presses herself up and a moment's migraine causes her to fall back on to the bed. She feels her forehead and it is burning. No wonder she felt horrible, she has a cold.
She had no choice but to call Julie at the clinic, "Julie, I'm having a cold, close the clinic for the day."
"You have a cold? Where are you? Do you want me to go over with some medicine?" Julie worries.
"No, nothing serious, I'll be fine after a day's rest. It's the clinic..."
"Don't worry, I'm here. If any patients come I'll ask them to come back tomorrow. Rest well at home and call me if you need anything." Julie assures.
After hanging up, Alice feels horrible, and being a doctor, she decided to go out for some medicine. Otherwise, she isn't sure if she can be well enough to go to the clinic tomorrow.
It is already the afternoon when she leaves the house. At least the two kids had John to take care of them and she is more at ease. But Edward didn't come back after he left last night.
Is it because he didn't want to see her anymore?
This is a good thing.
Alice comforted herself and sees a pharmacy nearby and walks towards it. Then she sees someone unexpected, Randall.
Beside him is a beautiful lady.
She is saying something to him and is obviously agitated and in despair. He looked at her coldly and said, "We parted a while ago, it's impossible."
Alice is surprised and wants to pretend that she didn't see it and walk around them.
But her intentions are dashed because Randall sees her immediately. He sees her walking over and grabs her hand.
Alice wants to struggle and hears Randall say softly, "Help me out."
Alice is stunned and remembers that Randall helped her several times and it looks like he wants her help to make this lady leave.
But she doesn't want to be involved in such a thing.
"This is the woman I'm in love with, that's why I won't continue with you. Please leave." Randall said coldly and pulled Alice to one side and walk away. He didn't care about the woman who is now in tears. "One day you will dump her!"
Alice was speechless when she hears this. She is an innocent passerby!
At this point, Randall held onto her hand and those words had nothing to do with her. When there was sufficient distance between them and that lady, Alice struggles free of him.
But Randall is strong and she couldn't break free.
"Can you release your grip?"
Randall looks at her with interest. She is different from the other women who throw themselves at him. Those women couldn't keep their eyes off him but she totally didn't care. Who does she care about?
One person's image flashes into Randall's mind and he frowns. He releases his grip and turns to look at her. "You don't look well."
"I'm fine, it's just a cold." Alice says calmly.
"Have you been to the clinic?" Randall asks.
"I'm heading to the pharmacy." Alice nods and politely say, "Bye, I'll leave first."
Randall shouts at her, "I'll go with you, do you know where the pharmacy is?"
From his deduction, Alice doesn't live here and should be where Edward lives.
"No need, I know where it is. Thanks." Alice rejects him.
But after Alice rejects Randall, she didn't expect him to follow her and she had no right to prevent him from walking on the same street.
In the end, Alice gives in to his attitude and even if he follows her to the pharmacy, he can't continue to follow her.
"Are you with Edward?"
Alice's footsteps slow down a fraction and then returns to normal. Together? No. As far as she is concerned, she can never be with Edward, it's just that he helped her.
She can never allow the past to reoccur. She was wrong once and if it continues, she will be hurt again.
Seeing that Alice didn't reply, Randall continues to ask, "Did he resolve the issue with your clinic" She didn't deny it.
Seeing this, Randall laughs and says cheekily, "If that's the case, why didn't you accept my help?"
"You are different." Alice only says this and didn't bother with Randall.
"The difference is he is richer and more influential than me, right?"
