The day after Irene returned from the hospital, Edward moved into her home.
Within their five-year-marriage, they hadn't lived together. Now Irene always lived alone in the house where she had just lived. Apart from coming here when he wanted to humiliate her, Edward didn't come to see her at all.
Seeing him here suddenly, expectation rose in Irene's heart. Was he here to take care of her?
Looking at Harry, the assistant of Edward, who helped him bring in his luggage, Irene felt an inexplicable throb in her heart.
At this moment, Edward walked towards her bed.
Irene looked at the figure coming over and found that he did not wear a suit today. He was dressed in comfortable casual clothes. He was tall and straight like a neighbor brother, which reminded her of the first time she met him.
At that time, he was the Prince Charming in the hearts of all the girls. He was talented showing himself on the debate table, attracting the souls of countless girls.
She was one of them. As her junior schoolmate, she only admired and revered him at that time. But when did they become like this unconsciously?
Apart from injury, it was also injury. The two of them transmitted their strength to not let the other have a good time. As if seeing each other's unhappy expression was their victory.
Just like now, Edward looked at her without a trace of pity.
"I heard that you were injured, so grandmother asked me to take care of you. She even asked Lydia to keep an eye on me. Tell me, what are you up to?" Edward's eyes were blazing with contempt and impatience.
Irene turned her head and saw Lydia bring her luggage in. It seemed that she could not hear his good words during this period of time.
Standing up, Irene met the gaze of Edward. "I didn't ask you to take care of me. If you don't want to stay here, you can leave at any time."
"Ha," Edward sneered. "You know that I can't refuse my grandmother's decision, so you deliberately let me do this. You used to work with my grandmother to force me to marry you, don't you?"
There was a disgusted look in Edward's eyes, "I've learned all your tricks."
Irene saw that he was not allowed to argue, and suddenly did not want to explain. Anyway, in his heart, she was a woman who was full of lies. In this case, there was no need to explain so much.
Lowering her head, Irene closed her mouth and said nothing.
Her behavior made Edward feel a little embarrassed. He looked at her with her drooping eyes, blue black circles and pale face. She looked really haggard. He couldn't tell if she really had something wrong.
But even if something really happened to her, it had nothing to do with him, didn't it?
Thinking of this, Edward put on the expression of disgust that Irene was very familiar with. "In short, I don't want to make grandma angry. I will live with you these days until you recover."
"However," said Edward. "Don't think about taking the opportunity to get close to me. Just leave it to Lydia to take care of you."
Irene looked at him and replied unwillingly. "Thank you very much. I dare not ask Mr. Edward to take care of me. Otherwise, I may be short of arms and legs in a few days!"
After the two of them spoke, the awkwardness in the air dissipated a little.
