Chapter 162: The Cuddled Couple
Then she suddenly saw a slender figure in an attractive red dress. The woman looked gorgeous and enchanting and she was hugged by a familiar figure. Looking at that figure, Alice can only see the back side of his head. Was that Edward?
Alice felt something was sticking in her throat and was out-breathed.
Well, she should be happy, right?
She wanted to let him leave her alone. Didn't her wish just come true?
But why she felt horrible and wanted to cry.
Then she released her hands and let the door close itself as if she was cutting the link between two worlds.
She left the SA Group and realized that she was in all tears when she's at the door. Was she crying?
Since when has she become so fragile?
She should really be happy. He's finally going to let her go.
Suppressing her emotion, Alice turned around and told bodyguards, "Don't tell Edward that I was here today."
Bodyguards were in shock.
"Well, I didn't really see him, so why bother?" Alice added.
The bodyguards nodded and figured that they should stay silent since she didn't meet him.
Alice was all absent-minded the next few days.
She did tell herself that she could care less about Edward. So why should she care about Edward hugging other women? She should really think about how to tell him that she wanted to leave...
Alice can't shake off the cuddled image from her head.
Alice's mind was getting all foggy after several days of wondering.
When Janet asked to see Alice again, she agreed.
Janet was shocked even herself, because Alice refused to meet her several times since she came back from the hospital.
Alice's bodyguards were strictly ordered by Edward that they can't leave Alice alone.
The two decided to meet in a private club. After all, Janet was one of the riches. She didn't want to be seen on the tabloid the next day. What's more, their conversation should be a secret. Alice's bodyguards didn't allow her to go to a strange place, but Alice wasn't cooperative like before since her trip to Edward's office.
Edward was in a meeting, so both parties refused to budge. At the end, Alice screamed.
"Why am I being controlled? Edward can do whatever he wants!" The butler's mouth twitched, wondering what happened to Alice and Edward.
In this way, Alice will get rebellious and won't let bodyguards protect her any more. Moreover, Alice's anger was not good for the fetus's growth.
So he decided that the bodyguards could follow her from a long distance so that they won't disturb her.
It has been two hours past the scheduled time when Alice finally arrived at the club.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
"How condescending!" Janet was getting impatient and was about to leave when she saw Alice.
"What do you want today?" Alice let out a self-deprecating smile.
Well, Janet must be here to persuade her to abort the baby. She knew this perfectly well. She even prepared for this when she decided to see her.
But why was she getting this crushing pain in her heart?
What happened five years ago resurfaced in her mind. She can't go through that desperate feeling ever again. Instead of being forced away by Janet, she should take the initiative.
"I'm going to be straight with you. You know what I want." Sure, of course Alice knew what Janet wanted. She wanted her to leave her son.
"My son will not be with you. He still has Nivea even he's not with Joanna now."
Janet's words stung Alice right in her heart. Janet always knew what hurt Alice the most. She knew that Alice was not going to forgive Edward easily on what happened five years ago though it was just a misunderstanding. Joanna and Nivea, well, well. Edward, if you really love me, why would you have all these women? Were they all misunderstandings? You must have said all those sweet things to all these women!
Alice was already sensitive because of her pregnancy. She was feeling up and down like she was on roller-coaster.
"Just leave him, will you? You won't be happy together. Or, do you prefer seeing your mother getting hurt? You don't want to let that happen, right?" Janet pressured.
"Leave my son and I will give you a five million yuan check." She offered.
Were they really going to be happy? Love like this is like rose growing on carcasses, the prettier it is, the rottener it is underground.
It's better that they just forgot each other.
Maybe she should really leave and lead her own peaceful and cozy life like she did five years ago.
Alice then slowly raised her head. Seeing that Alice was hooked, Janet immediately said,
"Your mother would be perfectly safe as long as you leave Edward. I would send you abroad and nobody would be able to track you down." Alice's mother was definitely her weak spot.
"I have one condition." Hearing this, Janet was getting excited and knew that Alice was about to accept her offer.
Then she took out a piece of paper from her purse.
"This is the letter of agreement. We have to put it down in black and white, so you can't regret your decision." Janet then stared at Alice and tried to figure out her expressions. Picking up the agreement, Alice then read it carefully. The agreement detailed that she can't see Edward again and was willing to abort the baby and so on. Alice smirked.
"My condition is that I want to keep this baby. I won't see Edward ever again, but this baby is mine."
Touching her belly, Alice didn't want to say much. Janet for sure would accept her condition. As a matter of fact, she would accept anything as long as Alice was out of Edward's life for good.
Janet naturally said yes. She always thought that this baby wasn't Edward's. This just further proved that she was right since Alice offered to keep this baby and leave Edward.
She really didn't mind whether Alice was going to keep the baby or not. It's Alice's business.000000
