A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 37

I've seen Edward treat Betty very gently, but I never thought that one day, Edward would be so gentle to me.

I lowered my eyes and didn't dare to look at Edward.

"What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?" Because I didn't drink soup, Edward's cold, hard brows moved slightly.

He took a sip and looked at me with a frown.

I looked at Edward's movements and coughed. "Thank... you."

If it were not for Edward to send me to the hospital in time today, my unborn child probably really be unable to survive.

Edward's face seemed a little gloomy. After hearing my thanks, he seemed to be a little unhappy.

"You are weak, drink them all." Edward said to me lightly after seeing me for a long time.

I listened to Edward's words and forced me to take a sip of soup. The faint taste was not fishy at all. So I took two more mouthfuls.

Looking at me like this, Edward gently touched my lips with his finger.

"Is it tasty? If you like it, drink more."

"Okay." I didn't want to destroy the warmth at the moment, so I gently nodded. After I drank a bowl of soup, I ate a little rice and got sleepy.

Edward hugged me and gently patted my shoulder and said, "If you are tired, just sleep."

"Edward... William will come over today. Can you call him for me?" I looked up at Edward and asked calmly.

I didn't want to be tempted by Edward again.

Edward was like a drug. Once I was addicted, I would never be able to quit.

I finally made up my mind to quit Edward, and I must not fall short.

"You want William to come and take care of you?" When he heard that I wanted to call William, Edward's face was extremely unhappy.

He narrowed his dangerous eyes, which were cold and sly, without any emotion.

I was scared by the cold air of the sudden rolling Edward. I slightly pinched the quilt in my hand and said, "We are no longer in a relationship."

"Do you have anything to do with William?" Edward sneered and said coldly to me.

"Yes, because I have decided to be engaged to William." I looked at Edward's face and said coldly.

Maybe I was a little hesitant before, but now I have to do it like this. Although I covered up the child's affairs with Edward today, maybe he will doubt it someday, I must hide the child before he finds the child.

If I was with William, then even if everyone knew that I was pregnant, they would not doubt that my child had any relationship with Edward.

"How dare you!" Edward glared coldly at my face and roared at me.

"Edward, we have divorced." I looked calm in front of Edward.

The muscles on Edward's face was trembling out of anger.

He buckled my shoulder and looked at me dangerously and vainly.

"Edward, we have divorced. We have been married for seven years, but you never loved me. I don't know why you suddenly harass me like this and even seduce me. Don't tell me you suddenly fall in love with me. Do you think that it's funny to tease me? I'm not a fool. I just want to tell you that I can't afford to waste my time because my heart has been hurt completely."

Edward let go of me. He got up from the bed and clenched his fists. "I... I didn't."

"So, what do you want to do? If you are worried that what Betty did to me will be exposed to the media, you can be at ease. I'm ordinary people. I have feelings. When you dated Betty, do you ever think about me?"

"On New Year's Eve, you showed up with Betty carrying your child, making me lose face and become the laughing stock of your family. At night, you told me to divorce. I will do whatever you want, as long as you feel happy. But, why do you follow me after the divorce?"

"Edward, I'm tired. I can't play your game. I can't play the game of love. I'm stupid. Otherwise, I wouldn't marry you happy when I knew you love Betty."

"When I looked at my fingers without a ring, I kept thinking, is it worth it? I spent fifteen years to love you and seven years to be your wife, but in the end, I still failed.

"I don't hate you, nor does Betty. After all, I am the culprit of your relationship, but...Edward, I don't love you now, and I don't want to fight for your love. You and Betty live your life, my only request is not to entangle me, is that okay?"

The ward suddenly became unusually quiet. Edward stood in front of me like a statue , silently.

He didn't say anything. Perhaps, he couldn't find any excuse to refute what I said.

I closed my eyes and said softly, "You can go. I'm tired."

"Ashley... I'm sorry." After a long time, I heard Edward's hoarse voice and he said sorry to me.

I had never heard the word from the mouth of Edward, but today Edward said sorry to me.

Was he also regretting what he had done to me before?

"I forgive you, but I don't want you to entangle me. I have my own life, and I have spent too much emotion on you. Now I want to live again, please don't disturb me."

Edward didn't speak anymore, and I didn't look at him either.

Until a long time had passed, as if it had been a century. I heard some footsteps, a little lonely, and gone.

When the door of the ward was closed, I closed my eyes.
