Chapter 15: Nice Try, Miss. Roberts
She remembers him going ballistic when he saw the divorce papers and smashing everything in the house.
To her surprise, he recovered everything afterwards.
Edward doesn’t forget Alice yet. Joanne Hale’s face twists as she realizes this.
When Edward Smith goes upstairs, Alice hides behind the door. A smirk shows up on the corners of his lips when he opens the door and sees her wearing only his shirt.
"Miss Roberts, nice try." His eyes sink slightly.
"Edward, do you want her to stay here for the night?" Alice Roberts asks in a low voice, with a very different look on her face.
"Of course, I wouldn’t let her go back by herself."
Edward Smith glances at her and eyes her up. "Are you deliberately trying to seduce me by dressing so sexy?"
"Can I have a pair of pants?" She whispers.
Edward Smith goes to take a pair of pants and throws to her.
Alice Roberts puts the pants on in a hurry. There is a sound of footsteps comes from downstairs. Alice is shocked and says, "She seems to be coming up. I’m hiding!"
With that, she hides under the bed! When she gets to the bed, she found this bed...She feels surprised and looks back at him.
Edward Smith locks the door and walks slowly up to her. "Are you sure you want to hide under the bed instead of meeting her?" He asks, arching his eyebrow.
"This is our wedding bed. Are you going to let her sleep on it tonight?"
Alice Roberts shivers slightly. Even after years of divorce, there is a feeling of resentment and anger in her when she knows that he would let Joanna sleep on this bed tonight.
"What’s the matter, Miss. Roberts?" Edward’s eyes sink down, staring at her face stained with a trace of anger. A strange feeling strikes him.
He sees the jealousy and anger in her eyes, and that is a good thing.
It proves that this woman still wants to possess him.
"Although we have been divorced for many years, I never thought Mr. Edward would still not let go of me. Would you think of me when you have sex with Miss Hale on this bed?" She is furious. She doesn’t like other people to touch things that used to belong to her.
"Then why do you sign the divorce papers if you don’t like people to touch what you’ve used? Do you forget that I was once a man belong to you too.”
Edward’s eyes get cold, "Don’t you want to say something? After all, I will be marrying another woman soon?"
Suddenly, there comes the sound of knock "Are you dressed, Edward?"Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
It is Joanna Hale, Alice Roberts pushes him away at once, looking into his deep eyes, and says before she hides herself under the bed, "I beg you, exchange this wedding bed."
Looking at this woman, who gets under the bed in order to hide a woman who is nothing, a tinge of anger surges from Edward Smith’s heart.
How he wishes he could lift her out and throws her on the bed and punish her!
There is another knock on the door. Edward goes to open the door and asks calmly, "What’s the matter?"
As soon as he opens the door, Joanna Hale puts her arms around his stout waist and says, "Edward, we are going to be married. Can I sleep with you tonight?"
"No." Edward takes her hand away.
When he turns his head, he sees that Alice is moving under the bed, eyeing the outside secretly.
Well, if she wants to see it, he will let her see it all!
