“ Hello, Mrs Charlotte Rodriguez!" Lauren waves his hand when she excuses herself from the distinguished guests. She feels uncomfortable when everyone wants to talk to her because she is daughter-in-law of Great Rodriguez who is called era's best business tycoon family..However, seeing Lauren who is waving at her, she feels better. He doesn't treat her like others. “ I didn't expect to see you here. You normally don't attend any parties..” She said glancing at Edward who is busy with other business men..“ I couldn't reject the invitation seeing its from your family.. Anyway you are looking beautiful in This dress.” he complimented her scanning her properly..She blushed tucking her hair behind her ear..“ My husband chose it for me. He has great taste on fashion as well.”“No wonder! Both of you have worn matching outfits.”Charlotte looks at Edward who is wearing a custom made purple suit. He looks breathtaking in every suit he wears. She couldn't deny it. Now he looks really too h
Pinching her own palm, Sandra bites her bottom lip. Her lowered gaze swept up to Suzy who is enjoying her birthday cake. Guiltiness is killing her. She knew about Suzy when she first met Suzy with Charlotte. Her facial expression, everything proved that her sister Jennifer has lied to her about her child's death. However, she had no plans to confess everything and accepting Suzy. She believes Jennifer loves Andrew and she will be third person in their relationship..Now, knowing everything about everything, she gets nothing but guilty. She intentionally abandoned her own daughter. What can be worst more than it is..“ Auntie Sandra! Are you sad?” Suzy asked biting her cake. Her innocent expression, her doe eyes, everything makes her heart clench..“ No. I just missed you. It was great evening. Didn't it?” She asks holding her and let her sit on her lap. Suzy nods. Sandra becomes her best friend just meeting for few times. The invisible attraction towards each other has remarkably incre
Edward turned towards Charlotte who is scrolling down her phone and watching something admirably. His long and strong hand slide down her waist and pulls her to collide. Sniffing the smell of her neck, he talks in low tone..“ What are you watching?" Her finger immediately presses the cancel button before smiling at him with a shaking head..“ Nothing. Didn't you fall asleep?" She replies facing him. Edward's eyebrows raise seeing her hiding the phone..It is indeed a video with a soft music. Why must she need to hide it? He wondered..” I can't sleep having someone beautiful as you next to me..” A gentle kiss falls on her tip of nose from him. Charlotte smiles with a shy glance..“ I sometimes feel jealous that your ex-girlfriend have met you first. That's heartbreaking.." She said playing with his hair on chest.. Edward chuckles softly stroking her soft back skin. “ I just loved. But it becomes a past. I want to move on and you are the one who has become the only one who I can move
“ So, Do you love her?” When Mr Rodriguez asked, Edward's face glowed unintentionally. Staring at the morning sun which is welcoming its 'breaking the horizon', he nods. Mr Rodriguez, Edward's father smiles at his son's heart changing. Sitting on the bench in the garden, he plucks a camellia and speaks. “ Once love becomes the priority of the relationship, you will get happiness and peace. So, be devoted and loyal. Don't steal her freedom. Give her personal space preserved to give her a world where she can be herself and be grateful and happy to have you by your side. She is your wife who is your priority now."It is shocking to Edward who never saw his father talking about something like this. Especially, he hated his ex-girlfriend all the time and never wanted to accept it. Seeing his father being so helpful and hopefully supportive, makes Edward happy. Charlotte is indeed a great person who can win anyone's heart.“ Now go to your room. I think she may want to see you when she wak
“ So, You are leaving without getting any more therapies!” Shayne asked on the phone after Edward told her to cancel all the schedule for the therapy.“ We still have a whole month. I want to spend the last month of our one-year married life fully. Call you later.." “ Wait! Eddie. I may suggest you someone who is my professor. He lives in France. Since you two are going there. You can continue. Just I hope you will give my sister a happy anniversary gift.”Sincerity was expressed in her voice. Closing the door of the car, she heads to the restaurant.“ That's great then. Send me his number and whereabouts. I will contact him personally. Bye."Her gaze goes to the phone screen, a disappointed expression appears on her face. But soon, her face shines when her phone buzzes..“ Let's meet at our usual place. I have something to discuss. "She spoke after responding to the call. The conversation continues further and is inaudible.Meanwhile.Charlotte has packed everything she possibly nee
“ Ms Charlotte! Here is your coffee..” Holding two cups of coffee, Charlotte walks towards the door after receiving the coffee from room service. Edward who just came out of the bathroom, approaches her and calls her name softly. “ Charlotte! Why are you standing there?" “ Oh! Our coffee. Are you done?" He hums hugging her legs tightly. The droplets of water are still falling.“ You will catch a cold if you don't dry your hair. Let's dry them up.." She turns his wheelchair around and takes him to the dressing table..“ Here is your coffee. Drink it. You won't feel cold..”Edward sighs sipping the coffee. She is worrying for nothing. The room temperature is just fine and he doesn't feel cold either.“ You know what. I met Rachel earlier.." She said gently drying his hair with a hair dryer.“ Rachel? Your sister..?”“ Hmm. Seems like something happened. She had no money as well. Did Brian cheat on her?" “ You are worried about her. I thought you didn't care about them.." Edward looks
_Ding Dong_Her eyebrows knitted when the door bell rang at early morning. She just finished her bath and preparing to order breakfast for them to be served exact 8 am since they will have a date today. Placing the towel on the couch, she moved the curtains from the window to let the morning sun ray enters. It helps Edward waking up since he hates alarm..When the door bell rang again, she sighed walking towards the door and opens the door immediately before checking. She can't disturb Edward's sleep..“ Yes. How can I help you?" She looks at the person who is hesitatingly looking at her. “ Sister!" Rachel takes two steps back while playing with her fingers. The bruises on her face and the corner of her lips provided the proofs of domestic violence. Charlotte's eyes scanned her body carefully and thoroughly. Her eyebrows raised seeing the situation of Rachel who never had even experienced before because of her parents spoiled her too badly. Now, her dark bruises and wounds are makin
“ How are you feeling?" Brushing her belly, Edward asks her. Charlotte has been feeling down after meeting Asher. He didn't ask anything until she feels better. When time comes, she will eventually speak up and opens herself up to him. However, seeing her situation getting worsen after having the dinner, he decided what he must need to do.” Hmm. I'm fine.." She said snuggling. Her comfort is only him when she can forget everything. Wrapping her arm around his chest, she rests her head. Making her comfortable, she finally speaks..“ It's not a good memories of mine to recall. And unfortunately, he was someone who made it hell. Asher was known as playboy. Most of the girls were victims of his animal behavior. So, did I. I wanted to complete my study and leave the university as soon as possible to get a job. So, I didn't have much time to hang out or join club with other classmates.”While speaking, her mind replays the painful night which made her feel the hell on earth. On that day, s
