Chapter 226
“Let’s talk outside. Edwin suddenly interrupted Tilda.)
He turned around and placed Irene on the ground. He patted her head and said. “Daddy is going out to talk about something. I’ll come back and accompany you later.”
Irene looked at him. She was worried, but she still nodded.
*I’ll be back soon,” Edwin said as he looked at Sharon
Sharon was stunned.
She thought, “Is he reporting to me? Is there a need for that? Perhaps this is just the etiquette of a guest to the host?”
Hearing Edwin’s words, Tilda took the initiative to retreat in the wheelchair. Edwin then walked out. Sharon considerately closed the door to prevent their conversation from leaking in.
When she turned around, she saw that Irene was still standing there. The smile on her face was long gone. At this moment, her lips were pursed tightly,
“Will Daddy leave with her?” she asked.
She wanted Edwin to stay. As a child, she wanted to live with her father.
Sharon walked over and squatted down to hug her. “Daddy has his life and work. He can’t be by your side all the time. But he has already tried his best to take time to visit you, so Irene has to understand Daddy, understand?”
Although she had divorced Edwin, she had no intention of becoming enemies with him, especially in front of her child. She tried her best to be fair to him.
“I know. Although Irene was still unhappy, she was no longer as conflicted as before.
“Let’s go play the building blocks, Sharon said as she held her hand.
Outside the apartment, Edwin stopped in the corridor, facing the door of Sharon.
When he saw Sharon close the door, he could not help but frown. Tilda sat in her wheelchair and stopped opposite him, taking in every tiny expression.
Her eyes were slightly red. “Edwin. I’m being bullied to death now. The company’s agent didn’t care about me and even tacitly allowed a newcomer to snatch my job and steal several roles from me. And those investors actually humiliated me. Help me.”
Edwin retracted his gaze from the door. When his gaze landed on Tilda, his eyes were so calm that no emotions could be seen. “You called me out just for this?”
“I really have no other way out. That’s why… Tilda bit her lip as tears rolled down her cheeks. She clasped her hands together and looked pitiful.
She did not want to come to Edwin to complain. If possible, she wanted to make some achievements to showcase her excellence in front of Edwin. However, without Edwin’s help, she could not do anything.
No matter how much Tilda thought about it, she could only look for him. “For my sister’s sake, please help me.”
Edwin did not answer immediately. The expression on his face became terrible, and he seemed indifferent. The surrounding air pressure also decreased, and the air instantly became thin. Tilda was so suffocated that she could barely breathe.
“Since it has nothing to do with your sister, you can go back,” he said and walked away.

He really did not show any mercy.
“Edwin!” Seeing how heartless Edwin was, Tilda’s tears finally rolled down uncontrollably. “You can’t leave me alone. You said before that you can’t give me love, but you will definitely repay my sister’s kindness.”
Tilda felt that it was too embarrassing to use her sister to seek help, but she couldn’t care less.
As long as she could get on her feet again and take revenge on her enemies, she could do anything.
“The money I gave you is enough for you to live leisurely for the rest of your life. His voice was cold.
The meaning was obvious. He only wanted to make sure that Tilda was alive.
Tilda fell silent.
She thought, ‘What is the use of just living? Without any real power or status, I can not avenge the humiliation I have suffered!‘
Edwin was not in the mood to care about her thoughts. After saying that, he walked to the door. He reached out to push the door open and wanted to check on Irene and Sharon.
Just as the door was about to open, Tilda’s voice came from behind again. “My sister is back!”
Edwin’s hand that was holding the door handle froze. His lightning–like gaze pierced Tilda’s body. It was dramatic and fierce. Tilda shivered.
Edwin said, “Say it again!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was already in front of her wheelchair, his hands gripping the armrests tightly. He pulled her and her wheelchair under his nose.
His glare was even sharper than before. Tilda stuttered for a long time before saying. “My sister is back. She’s really back
She shrank back. She was frightened by his appearance just now. Edwin fell silent again. He just stared at her quietly. It was as if he wanted to see through her with his gaze.
After a while, he stood up and entered the apartment without saying a word.
Tilda didn’t know what to do.
She thought, ‘Did he leave? He didn’t even care about my sister’s return?”
“Dad.” When she heard the door open, Irene jumped up excitedly. She even forgot about the building blocks and ran over to throw herself into his arms.
Edwin squatted down to catch her small body and helped her up. “Daddy has something important to deal with. I will come and see Irene next time.”
Irene did not say a word. Her little mouth silently pouted. She wanted to wheedle and ask Edwin to stay, but she remembered that Sharon had said that he was very busy.
Edwin lowered his head and touched Irene’s forehead. He stood up and looked at Sharon. “Thank you for the dinner tonight.”
With that, he walked out.
An hour later, Edwin’s limited edition Cayenne was parked at the entrance of a courtyard.
The door of the courtyard was located in an alley. It was surrounded by high walls, making it seem remote and quiet.
Sam Gill was already waiting at the door. When he saw the car arrive, he quickly went up to welcome it.

The door opened and Edwin walked out of the car.
“Mr. Stanley, you’re here,” Sam greeted and bowed obsequiously.
He was not tall to begin with, so when he bent down, he looked even shorter and more servile.
