Marriage Games with a Charming CEO novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50 Waiting for Me to Get Off Work 

Edmond had just been angry with Alicia in his apartment. His heart had softened the moment he heard Alicia say she was coming to meet him. 

He wanted to say yes. 

However, his face froze when he turned his head to see Melissa gesturing to plead in the hospital ward. 

Then Edmond lowered his eyes and fell silent for a moment. 

Alicia thought Edmond was silent because he didn't want her to come over. So she was a bit upset about it. After all, it had taken her a lot of courage to say that she was going to see him in the hospital. 

She felt a little ashamed of herself. Then she quickly acted cool and said, "Forget it! I'm not going over there. I was just saying." 

Edmond immediately replied, "I can't let you do it first." 

Alicia froze and asked, "Do what?" 

"To make the first move." 

Edmond paused. His tone sounded gentler than it was earlier. 

"I'll meet you after work. Wait for me." 

For the first time, Alicia was looking forward to getting off work so badly. She was so nervous she kept looking up at the clock. 

It turned out that Edmond got off work at 6 p.m. just like her. 

Edmond would drive here from the hospital through two main avenues, where there were a lot of cars. He had to drive for at least 30 minutes to get here. 

As Alicia waited anxiously for Edmond, her secretary knocked on the door and came in to report. 

"Ms. Casey, Mr. Charles from the AQ Group called and said he's arranged a dinner party for tomorrow. If you apologize to him in person with sincerity, he is willing to give our company the opportunity to work on the project." 

Alicia's face sank. 

Matt hadn't given up? 

The other day in Blendford City, Matt attempted to sexually harass her but was caught by Edmond in the act. And now he dared to come to Arnoford City? 

Alicia then immediately guessed that Matt must be the reason why the directors were condemning her at today's meeting.
