Chloe smiled politely and replied, "For now, I don't need anything, but... can I ask a question?""Of course," Leta nodded confidently. She couldn't possibly deny her employer from asking questions."Does Edward often spend time here?" Chloe inquired.Leta shook her head rhythmically. "Mr. Edward used to come home here frequently, but lately, he spends more time in his apartment. He only visits this house occasionally.""Ah...," Chloe cleared her throat and nodded in understanding. "Previously, did Edward often bring women home?"Leta's forehead wrinkled slightly. "Forgive me, does that mean your husband used to bring his dates home before you got married?"Chloe nodded. "Yes, that's what I meant. No need to be shy or secretive. Just tell me everything. I just want to know Edward's behavior before marrying me.""Well...," Leta began to share. "As far as I can remember, Mr. Edward used to bring women home quite often. I even remember who some of them were.""Did they stay overnight?" C

Chloe was shocked when she opened her eyes to find Edward asleep beside her—not lying down but sitting right next to the nightstand. The man's head was left resting on his left hand. At the same time, his right hand gripped Chloe's fingers tightly. Slowly, he tried to let go of Edward's hand. But the man woke up feeling Chloe's movement instead of letting go. "Are you awake?" he asked. "How are you feeling now?" There was a tinge of worry in Edward's question. "I'm fine," Chloe replied coldly. Maybe you are still dizzy due to the side effects of the drugs injected into your body. But before long, the woman's eyes flashed sharply. She looked at Edward questioningly. "Who changed my clothes?" Edward casually replied. "Of course I am. Who else? There's no way I'd have Samuel or the driver at my house take his place." "You!" Chloe shouted. "How dare you take off my clothes!" Edward shook his head. I feel sorry for the condition of his wife. But refraining from laughing, let alone seeing

Waking up at 7 in the morning, Edward seemed to be already up despite it being a Sunday. He uncovered the blanket, giving a quick peck on Chloe's cheek as she was still sound asleep. Then he got up slowly and headed to the bathroom.He took quite a while to get ready. After dressing neatly, he returned to the bed and pulled a small chair, sitting not far from where Chloe lay.Edward's hand reached out, brushing aside the strands of hair covering his wife's cheek. He gently caressed her, whispering her name softly."Chloe... wake up," he commanded. "Wake up, my love."The one being awakened blinked her eyes repeatedly, gradually gathering her senses until her eyes opened fully. Grumbling lazily, Chloe responded."What else do you want to wake me up for this early?" she protested, tucking herself back under the blanket. She deliberately covered her face. "It's a holiday. Can't I just rest peacefully?"Edward approached, using his right hand to stroke Chloe's hair. Then, he slowly tried

Chloe walked wearily into Le Meridien Hotel Piccadilly. Upon entering the room, Samuel greeted her. He was slightly puzzled to see his boss looking so pale. In his mind, he suspected that something might be wrong. With that thought, he quickly walked over to her."Ma'am, are you okay?" Samuel inquired as he placed the shopper bag she was carrying on the table. He then sat down, bringing his right hand to gently massage his forehead, which was still throbbing with pain. For the past two days, she had been feeling unwell."I don't know, Sam. I think I caught a cold or maybe it's because of lack of sleep. My head has been hurting for a few days now," Chloe replied.Samuel nodded, turned around, and headed to the pantry. He took the initiative to prepare a warm cup of chamomile tea for Chloe and immediately handed it to her."Maybe this can alleviate your headache," Samuel said, offering the cup to the woman in front of him."Thank you." Chloe didn't hesitate to take a sip of the tea that

"I'm leaving now. If you need anything, Leta will be there to help you."This morning, after breakfast, Edward specifically bid farewell to Chloe. According to the schedule, he and Nicholas would be departing for Turkey for the next few days. There, they would attend an important meeting with some developers to discuss cooperation and finalize the schedule for the commencement of the mega project construction.Chloe herself was feeling much better today. Her body temperature was gradually improving, and the headaches she had been suffering from for the past few days were starting to subside. However, Edward still asked her to rest and only return to work when her condition had fully returned to normal."No need to worry about me. I'm not a child, Mr. Eduardo Martin."Edward laughed. He then got up from his seat, grabbed his suit hanging behind the chair, and hurriedly put it on."But for me, you're still my little wife," he said, kissing the top of his wife's head. "Don't miss me whil
