85. A Job for Sky
"You don't need to feel guilty, Alice. We can practice. How about we start tonight?" Edmund sighed.
Alice stole a glance. Her cheeks started to turn red. "L-later tonight?""Too soon? How about tomorrow night? Next week? Next month?"Alice's heart pounded even more. "I think tonight will be fine too."Edmund's breath hitched. His blood rushed south. He didn't expect Alice to take his bait. Before anything untoward happened, he dissolved his imagination."Okay, I'll wait for night to come. But before that, I have to finish my work first. Let's take Sky to the second floor. We can't dawdle any longer."Alice smiled seeing Edmund's enthusiasm. She let him take her hand. She herself couldn't deny that she was also enthusiastic about welcoming their night.However, upon arriving at the second floor, they were forced to slow down. Scott and several employees greeted them with confetti and cheers.Related chapters

Instead of being happy, Sky's brows furrowed. "What about Uncle Scott? Isn't he your assistant?" "Don't worry, Sky. I won't get fired. Your father is just looking for an excuse to stay with your mother." Edmund glanced at Scott. His friend quickly raised both hands. "Okay, sorry. I didn't mean to tease. Just stating an opinion. Now, how about I accompany you around, Sky?" "Sorry, Uncle Scott. Uncle Ed promised to be my guide today." Sky took Edmund's finger and smiled sweetly. "That's right. Let me show Sky and Alice around. You and the others go back to work. Thank you for your warm welcome." Scott took a deep breath. "Okay. Then, have fun. Sky, keep an eye on your parents. Don't leave them alone." While Edmund and Alice pointed their gazes at Scott, Sky tilted her head. "Why can't I leave them alone?" "Sky, how about we start touring now?" Edmund stood up and held her tiny hand. "Okay, but my question still ha

Edmund sighed in amusement. "How did you know that mine's big? You couldn't possibly forget all your past and only remember that, right?" Alice blinked. "No, that's not it. I don't remember about it either. It's just that, when we were sleeping at the hotel, I could feel it behind me." "You're so ridiculous, Alice." Edmund could no longer contain his amusement. His laughter made Alice pensive. "Ridiculous?" "You know? You used to be so excited about our first night. Now why are you shy?" Alice grimaced. Actually, what's running in her head was the opposite of what she said. She just didn't want Edmund to play fast because it could potentially make her go crazy. Sky might have a younger sibling 40 weeks later. "I don't know either. Maybe because I haven't done it for a long time, I feel awkward. But you don't mind playing gently, right?" Edmund smiled crookedly. The look in his eyes was now a bit mysterious. "Whatever you ask, I
Mr. President's Lost Wife 88. Happiness Exists
"Uncle Ed, has my desk arrived?" Sky asked while walking excitedly beside Edmund. "I don't know. Would you be disappointed if your desk hasn't arrived yet?" Sky's lips pursed. "No. I just want to prepare myself. If I suddenly saw my desk, I would be very surprised. I would definitely cheer and jump up and down. The employees might be disturbed by me." Edmund smiled faintly. "If you're really happy, just cheer. No one will be bothered. People will actually smile because your voice is so cute." "Really? Then I'll scream as loud as I can when the desk arrives." "Honey?" Alice stroked her daughter's head. Sky looked up and chuckled. "Calm down, Mama. I was just joking. I'm a wise kid." "Then Sky, could you help me for a moment?" Edmund asked at the door of his room. Sky also stopped. "What do I need to do, Uncle Ed?" Edmund pointed to the door next to Scott's room. "There's a document I need to sign over there. Can
Mr. President's Lost Wife 89. Warm Up in the Office
Subconsciously, a faint sigh escaped Alice's mouth. She realized that she had to escape immediately if she didn't want to go crazy. "Sorry, Ed. I've given you a chance last night, but you sold it hard. Now's not the right time for that. If you still want to discuss it, let's continue tonight." Alice tried to move, but Edmund held her again. "Are you sure you can hold it in until tonight?" Alice froze. She was worried that doubt would be reflected in her movements. "Yes, of course." "Then how about we just warm up? One kiss is enough. We can continue the rest tonight." Alice raised her forehead. Her eyes were occasionally attracted to Edmund's lips, as if there was a great magnetic force coming from there. "How?" Unconsciously, Alice brought her head forward. As his heart tingled, Edmund was ready to welcome her. But one inch from his lips, Alice suddenly stopped. "Sorry, Ed. We have to be professional. This is a

"Guys?" Alice broke the silence. "I'm asking."Scott took a deep breath. "Back then, when you went missing, it wasn't just Edmund who was shaken, but the company too. Do you know why?" "Because Edmund is too sad to focus on managing the company?" Alice guessed. Scott shook his head. "Because your harmony is the image of the company. Most customers choose our travel services because of you two. They want to experience an adventure that looks fun when you did it." Alice blinked. Her mind went to the photos on the biome map. "People thought that our happiness was fake?" she concluded. Scott nodded. "Because of that, it took quite a long time for Edmund to be able to gain the public's trust again. When he tried desperately to find you, people thought that it was just a gimmick. After a year had passed, with lots of news about Edmund still looking for you, only then did they understand that the happiness you'd been showing was real. They fin

"Next time, just remember the G for Gigi and Gusi. Don't give it any horns, okay?" Edmund said.Instead of nodding, Sky raised her index finger. Her eyes twinkled, implying something. "For Gigi and Gusi, I would add wings to all the letter G." Edmund's brows furrowed again. "Your pencil will run out faster then." "I'm just kidding, Uncle. It's dangerous if I give them wings. They can fly and then disappear. Gigi and Gusi can become Ii and Usi." While Edmund was at a loss for words, Alice approached with a light laugh. "You're making great progress, Honey. You know how to put words together now." Sky smiled proudly. "Yes, Mama. That's because I study a lot. Soon, I'll be able to write my own journal." After kissing Sky's head, Alice sat opposite them. She furtively twitched her eyebrows at Edmund. Getting a nod, she cleared her throat. "Honey, since we moved here, you always have nightmares. You often wake up in the middle of the
Mr. President's Lost Wife 92. A Good Father
"Which constellation do you like best?" Edmund asked."That one!" Sky pointed at Ursa Major. Edmund's forehead furrowed. "Why?" "Because it's always in the north. On Mama's compass, north is the letter E. E is for Edmund." Sky hugged her father's neck with all her might, not caring if he was suffocating because of her action. Edmund could only laugh at her "sweet attack". "You know what, Honey? You're lucky to have such a good Papa," Alice whispered, throwing a bait. "Yes, Uncle Ed is the coolest father in the world. He's not only handsome and fun, but also creative and kind!" As Sky kissed his cheek repeatedly, Edmund chuckled. Alice's feelings became even more mixed watching it. Sky already considered Edmund her father, but why hadn't she changed the way she called him? "Now, want to lie down and watch the constellations?" Edmund's voice interrupted her thoughts. "Yes, but in the tent. We can lie down w

"Okay, then, have fun. I'll wait until you guys get home. We have a little time on Sunday night, right?" Elizabeth said, accepting defeat. "What do you want to play with me, Grandma?" Sky stood on tiptoe, waiting for an answer. "A lot of stuff. Spare your weekend if you want to know." Sky's lips pursed. "Oh, sorry, Grandma. I already have plans for the next three months." "Three months?" Elizabeth's eyes nearly popped out. Her plan could go stale if she had to wait that long. "Yes. After exploring this area, we will continue to other places. How about we just play on weekdays, Grandma? Wait for me to come home from work or, you can come to my office room. We can play after I finnish my tasks. " "You have an office room?" Elizabeth's eyes could no longer open any wider. "Yes. It was a gift from Uncle Ed because I am an Environmental Ambassador and Supervisor at his company." Elizabeth sigh
