Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 44

Irene slightly raised her eyelids and looked listless, but answered, "What story?"

"A boy. He rarely saw his father go home until he was eleven. Even when he did go home, his father and mother almost did not speak to each other at home. They were simply two strangers. After his eleven? He witnessed his father loving another boy as if he was not his father. He used to think that his father was naturally like that, but later he realized that he just did not like him."

 Irene was speechless for a while, she knew the boy in the story was Edward. When she met Edward Wilson in the university, She only felt that this person was cold and alienated from everyone, and looked like he was not easy to get along with. The reason was that the family's misfortune had pushed Edward to became like this step by step.

Edward continued, "Later, the boy understood that he should not ask for anything that didn't belong to him. Day by day his attitude of love had changed from expecting to disgusting."

Edward once heard that the best way to comfort others was to make his scars visible to others. It would hurt, he said, but the effect was good

Irene also knew what exactly Edward wanted to express with these words? He wanted to tell her that since Sofia did not like her and had no affection for her, she did not have to be expexting. She should just slowly forget about her mother, one day,she would never miss the love of mother any more.

It was fine for her to not think about some people.

Edward wiped the tears with his fingers. "Now, Irene, you already have me. I promise you will always be loved and never feel lonly. "

Irene appreciated waht he said and felt very thankful...

...

It was very dark, and Irene had already fallen asleep.

Edward did not sleep. He stood on the balcony in his pajamas and called. The person who answered the call was his secretary, Harry. "You go to the prison and find out who hired him. Tomorrow..." He changed his words,"No, now, I want the answer."

The secretary on the other side was a little faint because of the Edward's call. It was the first time he had heard Edward being so worried about anything other than work.

Half an hour later, the phone rang. Edward answered the phone, "Go ahead."

Harry told him all the information he had found, "Derek, thirty-six years old, is an orphan. He has always been detained by the police and offended a lot of people. and..."

"What about the kidnapping?" Edward was more concerned about this.

"He kept saying that he was lust for Irene's beauty."

"Lust for Irene's beauty?"  Edward sneered. "Then let some people who have a grudge against him in and teach him a lesson. Don't be merciful to  such him."

 After hanging up the phone, Edward turned and gently looked at Irene who was asleep on the bed. If whoever hurt her, he must punched back. 

...

At the starbucks.

Celine sat in a corner, wearing a palir of sunglasses. The cup of coffee in front of her had never been touched. That was the scene Eric saw when he just arrived.

Celine asked first. "What's the matter, Mr. Eric? "

Mr. Eric? Eric curled his lips. "Celine, you're so cruel. We used to be so close to each other, but now you call me Mr. Eric. You..."

"Stop." Celine stopped Eric directly. "Just tell me waht do you want?"

"Celine, I'm helping you. I have done my best to help you. Did you see the pictures I sent to Edward  a feaw days ago. Were you interested in that? There will be more amazing stuffs in the future. This game has just begun."

Celine knew that was not enough to separate Irene and Edward just by some fake photos. She wanted more. She wanted to kill Irene, then she would never showed up in front of Edward.

Celine felt Eric, who was in front of her,  was perfunctory to her. Though he said that he would help her, but he did everthing for himself...

Celine stirred coffee which ahd already cold, and contemptuously smiled,  "That Edward divorce Irene and Edward can not inherit the family estate is what you want, right?"

"And that then you can  be with Edwad is what you want ?" Eric retorted sarcastically. Actually, they were the same kind of people.

Celine did not intend to talk too much with him, so she said, "Yes, that is the only thing I want. I hope you can keeo your words. By the way, don't threaten me by these anymore."

She had never seen anyone as mean as Eric. He had filmed a video when they slept together, and even threatened her with it. She felt like she had been possessed by an evil spirit.
