The sound of the slap echoed along the hallway, breaking the silence that had previously been filled only by footsteps. A few passers-by stopped their steps and turned their heads curiously. They immediately turned away when they saw Anna's cold face and Edward's shocked expression.

Edward was rooted to the spot. The slap turned his face sideways, and his left hand slowly touched his cheek, which was starting to turn red. The slap was not only physically painful but also hit his pride hard.

With eyes full of disbelief, Edward raised his gaze to see who dared to do such a thing.

"Mom?" he asked in a low voice, almost a whisper. "What did you do? Why did you slap me?"

However, Anna, the woman standing in front of him with a face full of anger, did not show the slightest hint of remorse. Her eyes were blazing, and her voice sounded loud as she retorted.

"Mother? Don't ever call me mother, Edward, because I'm not your mother!" she exclaimed with great emotion.

Edward was stunned. The wor

    "Of course, I allowed it. But why are you being like this? Do you think you're really a good wife in your husband's eyes now?" asked Edward in a teasing tone."What? You... No! What are you talking about? We're still with the original agreement; we're just a contract marriage. So, don't think any more of me," Kyla snapped, turning her face away. Seconds later, she said goodbye."I'm leaving now," she said.Edward only responded with a nod.On the way, Kyla felt restless. She thought about what she had done in the past few days. She felt a change in herself. She no longer recognized herself, as she was previously a woman of firmness and principle. But now, she has become a woman who wants to know everything, even about things she shouldn't have to think about. It was more or less like that.Not long after, she arrived at the cafe they had agreed on. From a distance, he saw Elena waiting for him in the lobby."Have you been waiting long, El?" asked Kyla when she was in front of Elena."

    As they were in the room together, an awkward atmosphere was evident. This was the first time they had faced a situation like this."You can sleep on the bed," Edward said, then got up and left the room.Inside the room, Kyla felt uneasy. She was not comfortable letting Edward sleep outside, especially with the cold night air. After rolling around in bed for a while without being able to close her eyes, she finally decided to look for him.Kyla walked out of the room, going through every room in the house until she found Edward in the back gazebo. He was enjoying the view of the city that looked beautiful from the top of the hills, with the moon shining brightly in the night sky."What are you doing here?" asked Kyla, her voice soft in the night breeze.Edward turned his head, slightly surprised to see Kyla standing there. "Nothing. Why are you out? It's quite cold outside," he said as he patted the spot next to him, motioning for Kyla to sit down.Kyla hesitated for a moment before f

    “Prince, you must see this.” He approached Edward, who was walking to his hotel room after the wedding. In his hand, he carried a cell phone with a viral video on it.“Leave it alone,” Edward said casually, refusing to look at the video Diandra and Ricky had shared.“But Prince, this has gone too far,” Han tried to convince him.“I know. But tomorrow they will regret it,” Edward replied calmly as he continued walking.Edward deliberately kept the incident quiet for now. He had a plan to keep them silent. Right now, all he had on his mind was his wife. He knew Kyla would still be curious about his status after the King and Queen attended their wedding.Edward opened the door to the room slowly. Kyla, who had already changed, immediately approached him with a questioning look.“Edward, who exactly are you? How come the King and Queen are at our wedding? Don't you...” Kyla trailed off, seemingly hesitant to continue.Edward smiled slightly. “I was born and raised in the Palace. It was on

  • The Invisible Strongest General. Ex-wife's Regret.   Wedding party night

    Such a grand party was held in a luxurious building decorated with great beauty. Crystal chandeliers glittered from the ceiling, reflecting light that added to the magical atmosphere of the evening.

His blood-red robe was adorned with gold embroidery and a shining royal crest. Underneath the robe, his body looked dashing in light armor designed to add to his charm as a general. Although his appearance exuded an aura of decisiveness, there was a hint of nervousness in his eyes.Kyla had finished dressing up. With steady steps, she walked towards the room where the wedding party was held. Although her small steps felt so heavy,

    “Mrs Wijaya, believe me, he is not what you see now,” Elizabeth was still trying to convince everyone, her voice full of emotion and conviction that seemed forced.Lady Wijaya seemed affected. She looked at Edward with a thoughtful gaze, then turned her gaze to everyone standing around the man. As if trying to find the truth behind all of Elizabeth's accusations. Finally, after taking a deep breath, she said in a firm tone, “I don't know who is right here. But I'll calculate if you lie to me, Edward.”The room fell silent for a moment. The guests exchanged glances, the atmosphere turning increasingly tense. However, Edward remained calm, his gaze not wavering in the slightest.In a low but authoritative voice, the man who looked like Edward's messenger spoke, “True or not, it is none of your business, Mrs. Wijaya. My duty is only to fetch the bride. And you, Miss Elizabeth,” the man glanced at Elizabeth with a cold gaze, ”stop talking before you do something you will regret.”Elizabet

    “Stop it!” The loud voice echoed, breaking the crowd that had previously been filled with the guests' conversations. Everyone fell silent, turning their eyes towards the voice's owner.Edward stopped his steps, turning his head with a surprised expression. So did Kyla, who stood beside him. Their gazes met Elizabeth, who advanced from the crowd, her face filled with anger and blatant contempt.Elizabeth swept her gaze across the room, taking a deep breath before opening her voice. “What kind of joke are you making, Edward?” her voice was filled with mockery, but she made sure every word was stabbed like a dagger. “You may be able to lie to all of them, but me? I know who you are.”Edward gave Elizabeth a cold stare, his expression difficult to read, but Kyla could feel the tension that enveloped the man's body beside her.“You have nothing! You're just a poor ex-soldier who means nothing!” Elizabeth pointed her finger at Edward accusingly. “So stop this nonsense. Everyone with you tod
