Inside the car, Susan’s face flushed in red when she heard herself moan and yell.
She looked at Edward and his eyes were cold as ice. His entire person became distant and cold. When his hand slid over Susan’s skin, she clenched her teeth, closed her eyes, and moaned softly.
As Jarvis heard the repeated moans, his footsteps quickened. They were clearly provoking him! His fists were clenched and his veins began to throb.
But before Jarvis could reach Edward’s car… Edward started the car and drove off. He totally didn’t give Jarvis a chance to do anything.
As Edward’s sports car roared, Edward looked at Susan and ordered, “Turn off your phone.” Susan did as she was told and she didn’t speak a word. Edward also kept his silence and drove back to the Ford family villa. After he stopped the car, Susan did not get out of the car after a while and he looked back at Susan.
He went back to the car and opened the door and asked Susan, “Aren’t you getting out of the car?”
“I’ll get out of the car when hubby isn’t angry anymore. If hubby is angry, then I’m unworthy of going home.”
“Get out of the car, I’m not angry anymore.” Edward’s tone softened to coax Susan. But after Susan got out and walked a couple of steps, she couldn’t walk any further.
Edward was walking in front and when he noticed that Susan didn’t catch up to him, he turned around and asked Susan, “What’s the matter?”
As soon as he said that, he realized that Susan was holding tightly onto her dress which was a simple evening gown. It was torn apart by him and even if she held onto it, the dress will slip off as soon as she walked. Edward looked at Susan, walked over, and covered her with his jacket. Thereafter he carried Susan in his arms.
Susan was very obedient in Edward’s embrace. When Edward placed her in the bedroom, she changed into her nightgown and waited for him in the room. After Edward washed up, she quickly showered and then snuggled into Edward’s embrace. She was particularly obedient and both Edward and Susan didn’t mention anything regarding Jarvis. Susan was exhausted and fell asleep very quickly in Edward’s arms.
The next morning, Susan was woken up by the phone. She looked at the name displayed and frowned. She called out softly, “Hubby, your call, it’s Vanessa.”
She could only hear the water running from the shower and Edward did not respond.
Susan didn’t take the phone to Edward but just allowed the phone to ring. The phone rang until it was cut off automatically and then it rang again as if the caller will not give up until it was answered.
Susan wanted to continue to sleep and had no choice but to take the phone to the bathroom. She yelled again, “Hubby, your call, it’s Vanessa.”
“Answer for me,” Edward said from the bathroom.
Susan thought that she had heard wrongly… He wanted her to answer the call. But what was her status, and what was Vanessa’s status… for her to answer the call? How awkward was this relationship? That’s why she didn’t answer but only switched it to silent mode and placed it on the bedside table.
After a while, the water in the bathroom stopped and Edward walked out of the bathroom. He used the towel to dry his dripping wet hair and the water beads ran down his body. She looked at Edward in a daze as he was in good physical shape.
“Aren’t you going to wipe me down?” Edward looked at the infatuated look on Susan and teased her. Susan swallowed her saliva and took a towel over to him. She also took along Edward’s cell phone and handed it to him.
“Hubby, return Ms. Murray’s message. I’ll wipe you dry.”
“Why didn’t you answer the call for me?” Edward had never kept anything from Susan whether it was work or personal matters.
Susan helped to wipe Edward’s body and said, “Ms. Murray doesn’t know that I’m your wife that’s why it’s inconvenient for me to answer the call.”
Edward laughed, “Then do you wish that she knows?”
