“Okay, I promise you.” After saying that, Edward immediately turned and left. Matt needs his own space to calm down, he shouldn't stay here anymore.Edward returned to the hospital room, the police had not yet left.“Mr. and Mrs. Shively, I need you two to provide more information about this skateboard. We need to determine whether this is a local error, due to careless work by the staff, or if this skateboard alone has a problem, for example trying to kill someone.Mr. Shively got angry when he heard that. They didn't investigate thoroughly and quickly poured this bucket of water on him.“I say again, it has nothing to do with me! I don't know anything about this. And your police work is so sloppy! Just based on a skateboard, you want to accuse me, no way!” Mr. Shively pointed directly at Roland. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. This is just sitting idle and getting shot!Old police officer Roland was extremely upset, the investigation was the same, the motive was
Edward returned to the room to see Cipher off. As soon as Cipher spotted Edward, he jumped up cheerfully.“Edward, you’re up from bed! Are you really okay?”“I’m fine. Taking a break for a while will be enough,” Edward said gently while looking at Cipher.“That’s good. I knew the Lord would protect you. They won’t let someone as good as you face any trouble.”“You should go back to rest. Don’t go outside too much; it’s quite cold.” As Cipher spoke, he handed Edward his own scarf. Now that Edward was unwell, he shouldn’t be exposed to too much cold. Moreover, the weather here was much colder than in his city.“Thank you.” Edward accepted Cipher’s scarf but didn’t put it around his neck.“Pack up your things,” Edward continued.“Pack up? Where are you planning to go? But your wounds haven’t completely healed yet.” Cipher looked at Edward in astonishment. He couldn’t understand why Edward wanted him to pack up. If it was about going home, it seemed too hasty. Edward’s people were busy te
“Okay, I know.” Edward smiled with satisfaction, everything was as he predicted. In the chess game with Mr. Shively, he won, and won spectacularly. Between power and his beloved son, Mr. Shively chose the latter.“When I'm not there, are other things okay?”“It's fine, the only thing that surprised me was Mr. Shively, I didn't expect him to recommend you.” That's right, when Mr. Shively recommended Edward in front of the board of directors, not only he was surprised but everyone present was surprised. None of them knew about Edward's true identity. In the eyes of those people, Edward was just Mr. Swan's "half-hearted" son-in-law. Edward entered the company because Mr. Benson gave Mr. Swan some face. never mind.“By the way, Edward, do you know Mr. Shively? Why did he recommend you then?”Hearing that, Edward smiled slightly. He and Mr. Shively were indeed acquainted, and were quite "close" on the other hand. You have what he needs, and he has what you need. Their relationship cannot b
“Look, there are two lines!” Janet cockily threw a tahi test strip at Hernan. Indeed, at first when she suspected she was pregnant, she was very scared. She wished that such a bad thing would never happen. However, when the pregnancy test showed two lines, she thought differently. That's right, there's nothing scary about being pregnant, this pregnancy is also Edward's. People often say that fierce tigers don't eat their children. Janet didn't believe that Edward was so cruel that he wouldn't even recognize his own son. Furthermore, until now Janet still believed that Edward had feelings for her, that what happened at the martial arts arena that day and what kept her under house arrest were just because of jealousy. All men are jealous, not to mention that she and Jeff haven't broken up yet and she's already with Edward. That might make Edward feel uncomfortable, so he punishes her this way. Although Edward no longer had the gentle and caring appearance that she loved as a woman, ther
“You say that? What do you mean?” Mr. Swan questioned Edward. His daughter was like a golden branch with jade leaves; why wouldn’t Mr. Swan be delighted if Edward proposed to marry his daughter? It was truly laughable. In Mr. Swan’s eyes, Edward was just a useless twenty-year-old, living off the family.Edward maintained an extremely polite attitude, casually taking a sip of tea from the cup on the table with his hand. “Mr. Swan, I do not intend to suggest that you should celebrate if I propose to Felicia. What I want to discuss is my position within the company.”“Don’t play games here; if there’s something, say it straight!”Edward, hearing this, couldn’t help but smile slightly. His “father-in-law” was indeed lacking in sophistication. He had already mentioned it, but Mr. Swan still didn’t understand. No matter, Edward didn’t mind explaining for him to comprehend.“Mr. Swan, the marriage between your daughter and me is already set. I will marry Felicia and become her husband. Now t
“Exactly, I and your parents are discussing our matters,” Edward said as he reached out to hold Felicia’s hand.As for Felicia, she did not shy away from Edward’s physical gesture. After all, she and Edward were about to get married, and Felicia genuinely had feelings for him.“Are they not mistreating you?” Felicia expressed her concern, aware that her parents’ attitude towards Edward wasn’t favorable; they didn’t like him. They agreed to let Edward marry her only because of the prearranged marriage between the Sherwood and Swan families, and especially because she was visually impaired. Yes, they consented to Edward marrying her because she was a blind girl.Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Swan’s faces wrinkled in displeasure. They never expected their daughter to perceive them as unkind people. Although they typically treated Edward with a stern face, this time was different. Clearly, both Mr. and Mrs. Swan were very warm towards the young man. Mr. Swan even agreed to cooperate wit
“Thank you, Edward,” Felicia looked at Edward, her eyes teary. Besides her parents, Edward was probably the one who treated her the best. Among the others surrounding her, few were sincere—flattering on the surface but mocking and ridiculing behind her back. The only ones genuinely approaching and befriending her were the Swans. The only person she felt sincerity from was Edward. Yes, only him.“It’s nothing, no need to be polite with me. Eventually, we’ll be a family,” Edward replied.“Exactly, Edward is right. Why are you still being formal with the boy? You two are about to become husband and wife!” Mrs. Swan quickly approached and gently patted her daughter’s back. Normally, she found Edward disagreeable, but now she had a very favorable impression of him—handsome, talented, refined, generous, and especially sincere in his gestures, attitude, and behavior towards Felicia. Not to mention, the substantial amount he spent on the wedding showed his economic strength. For Felicia, to m
Janet was in the room looking at the pregnancy test over and over again. She was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth and laugh. It's true that it's hard for a hero to pass the beauty barrier, no matter how much Edward calculated, he couldn't calculate that she was pregnant. Now in her belly is a drop of the Sherwood family's blood. If Edward doesn't want to admit it, he has to admit it. With this bet, she will definitely enter the Sherwood family and marry a handsome and rich husband like Edward.“It's truly fate, no matter how much you avoid it, you can't avoid it.” Janet held the pregnancy test tightly in her hand and smiled. Who said Edward was stupid and played around with girls without taking any measures? Now he has to bear the consequences, no one can blame him. It's not like Janet set him up.“And why did Edward take so long, or did the old man not inform him?” Janet began to doubt, she refused to sit still anymore, she had to do something. That old butler might be Mr.
