Unafraid Eddie Penney 소설 & 이야기

He hung up before the partner could respond. The hum of the old TV filled the space as the news clip looped again—Hayden Oakley smiling confidently as he walked into his building like nothing had ever happened. Eddie’s chest heaved, his breath raspy as his eyes burned with unfiltered hatred. He stepped closer to the screen, watching Hayden’s smirk freeze on the replay. “You think you won?” Eddie whispered, his voice sounding almost deranged. “You think walking makes you safe? You think having her… defiling her… makes you strong?”

Hazel's anxious face became redder, then she rolled her cute eyes and she turned her head into the window. The awkward atmosphere grew intensely, as Jae started teasing her. Then suddenly the company's guard knocked on the door. "Boss, Someone's here from the City Bank, he said that he is the director of the bank and came here to apologize to you!" Daryl Poxter was in despair when he knew that the one he offended this morning was no ordinary person, and it turns out that he is the most feared person in the world who turned it up side down.

“Uncle Kendall “ he called out happily at him. Kendall smiled and went to sit close to him. He placed his hands on his shoulders and left there to rub his head. He could underhand the child as she might have gone through something very drastic for him to be in this state. He knew how he always reacted. A cheerful child, who always had a smile on his face. But now he seems scared to even look people in the eyes anymore. “Are you okay? “ he asked him with concern on his face. Cain at first nodded his head but soon changed it and shook it. “No” he answered weakly. He was scared. Scared of what happened to Miss Gideon would happen to Eddy too. What would he do when that happens? What?

“Well, now that we are out here, you should let me down.” “At least we should be seen in this state.” However, Edgar remained unmoved. Walking up ahead like he had heard none of my words, which sounded quite stern through the air. “What do you want others to think seeing you and me like this?!” I groaned in displeasure. Even if he’s fearless, it ought to have its limit! Or are Warlords always this fearless? “They can think whatever,” he mumbled, however, with a sly smile. “I’m never scared of people’s minds, Elena,” he shrugged.

His consistently positive and energetic energy infected my sad soul. "I'm good, I'm good! But the only one who doesn't look good here is you. What's going on? Where have you been for the past few months? You need to tone your muscles back up, bro! You look skinny!" Eddie commented unfiltered. His eyes scan me from head to toe. I laughed lightly at Eddie's honest comment. In this place, I felt like I could be myself. No one knows about my unusual background. I told neither Eddie nor any of the old members here that I was an ordinary office worker.

"You always doubt me, never giving me the benefit of the doubt. You constantly believe that I will cause you harm." Edward's expression contorted with rage. "You don't understand." "What do I not understand?" Vanessa insisted, her eyes full of fire. "Are you too afraid to have faith in anyone? Are you too scared to allow anyone to get close to you?" Fury flashed in Edward's eyes. "I am not afraid of anyone." His voice rose, bouncing off the walls while they both stared each other down. "I'm just scared of losing control and going through the same pain all over again." He ststed, his voice cracking with pain.

Eddie prided himself on being one of the most level headed human beings on the face of the earth. He had gone through a relatively unstable childhood, where his mother had been present but mentally absent. When she eventually exiled herself, Eddie had landed in the hands of his aunt Catherine. Catherine had tried her best to be good to him, but Eddie could not ignore the bias that Catherine had towards her own biological children. On the other hand, his father sent him money and clothes and everything else he wanted except his company. Eddie had eventually reconnected fully with his father when he was in university because his father felt that he could benefit his political career. Eddie had

Edna asked cheekily, wiggling her brows as she strapped seat belt, looking expectantly at Peter. " You were…." Peter trailed off squinting his eyes trying to find the right word. " Awesome, fierce , deadly." Peter finally whispered out looking at her in awe. " Do not let your Boss catch you saying that Or I am afraid …" she deadpanned, and the colour drained from his face. Edna burst out in a loud laugh, her laugh echoing in the car along the roaring of engine. " Don't worry he won't do such thing.. God!! You all are so scared of him… why though? " Edna asked out in between her breath while Peter give her an unimpressed look.

That was Bruce Yates for you. Hearing Bruce words, Eddie was in a trance for a second as she looked up at his expressionless face and she instantly got back to her senses but it didn't stop her from still being appreciative. "No, it's not embarrassing at all Mr. Yates. I can never be ashamed to be thankful to you. I am more than ready to worship your feet 'cause what you offered to do is something I know that I can never do all by myself,” Eddie said truthfully with genuine appreciation in her eyes.

"Me? No. I'm afraid of you. You're scary when you're angry." Elissa smiled. She saw a hint of doubt in Edgar's eyes. "Are you not afraid?" she asked once again. Edgar shook his head confidently. "I told you I'm only afraid of you getting angry and not forgiving me. I used to be an adventurer. I'm not afraid of ghosts. I even climbed the mountain at night," said Edgar proudly. "Okay. We're heading there now!" Elissa pointed to a large haunted house at the corner of the night market.
