Chapter 50: Is It Guilt?
“Why can’t I, unless you feel guilty?” Edward pointedly stares at Alice. He has not forgotten about the fact that she had married John.
Although the pair divorced shortly after their marriage, John is still a threat to Edward!
“Edward, I think there is a misunderstanding. I don’t feel guilt for you. Our family of four are eating, and you are imposing as an outsider, isn’t it inappropriate?” Alice sneers.
This sentence makes Edward’s face scrunch in disgust. Family?
To think before that they were a family!
“Let’s go.”
Seeing Alice reject Edward, John feels extremely happy.
During this period, he has heard rumours of Edward constantly visiting the hospital to look for her. He keeps worrying that Alice may be cheated by Edward again, and that they may return to how they were before.
Looking at Alice giving Edward the cold shoulder, he feels relieved. He holds Alice’s hand in front of Edward on purpose, “Let’s go.”
When Alice feels John’s sudden touch, she almost pushes his hand away. However, she hears what he says, and a sweet smile tugs at the corners of her mouth. “Okay!”
Edward sees the good relationship between the two and explodes in fury.
Especially seeing John holding Alice’s hand, and that she doesn’t resist him all at. Compared with the way she treats him, isn’t it extremely different?
“Alice!”
“Mr. Smith, if you would like to see a doctor, please come earlier tomorrow. Right now, I am off-duty, sorry. My family and I are going to have dinner. Goodbye,” Alice says with a smile.
Edward sneers.
“Mommy, look! That uncle is sitting opposite of us,” Rebecca notes loudly, her big beautiful eyes glinting with happiness.
Although the bad woman hit Mommy yesterday, her and her brother were very angry, and felt that this daddy was useless. Today, after seeing him, she cannot help but want to laugh.
Humph! Now you know how angry Mommy is? If you already know, then why bother.
Alice listens to her daughter’s words, and she feels her head ache. This man has been following them from the hospital until here, does he not feel embarrassment or shame?
Originally, she just wanted to use this to force Edward to give up, so he will not go to the hospital anymore. After that, she wanted to take her two children home to cook dinner.
However, she didn’t think that Edward will follow her all the way here.
As a result, Alice has no choice but to follow John to search for a nice restaurant and prepare a romantic dinner for “a family of four”!
John takes a look at the menu first, orders a few dishes, and then turns to Alice to ask, “Do you have anything else to add to the order?”
Edward, who is sitting at the next table, snorts coldly. He scans the menu in his hand, and retorts sarcastically, “He doesn’t even have the basic gentleman characteristics, what a man!”
That is obvious to point to say that John ordered by himself, not letting Alice or the children pick their menus first. This is a very selfish behavior.
“Alice, I…”
“John, we have known each other for so many years, don’t you think I understand you? The dishes you ordered are to our liking. Besides, we are so close, don’t care about these imaginary things,” Alice cuts off his explanation with a smile.
As John senses that Alice understands, a smile forms on his face, “It’s good that you understand.”
“I’ll take another one of this and this.” Alice points to the waiter the two dishes, and then raises her eyes, looking at John, and smiles, “Since you keep ordering our favorite dishes, I’ll also pick two dishes that you like.”
“Okay.” Although John knew that Alice is just trying to drive Edward away, he is still happy that she remembers what he likes.
With Edward eavesdropping on their conversation, he almost tears off the menu in his hand. He did not hear the waiter beside him asking for his order.
“Sir, sir?”
“Anything!” Edward’s blood is already boiling, thoughts of dishes off his mind, his desire to step in front of them and kick John away.
But for now, Alice and the two rascals are already mad. After a long deliberation, he decides that enduring is the best thing to do.
“Sorry, we don’t have this dish here,” the waiter states with embarrassment.
“Then I’ll take what they are having!” Edward says grimly.
“Sir, are you perhaps dining alone?”
“I’m repeating again, I’ll take what they are having. If you keep asking, tell your manager to come out and see me!!!”
Edward is very annoyed and yells at the waiter. The waiter lowers his head. Knowing that the handsome man in front of him is not easy to provoke, he does not dare to mutter the word “You can’t eat so many dishes alone”.
Witnessing John and Alice and the two adorable babies in harmony, Edward is furious. While they are eating, he has an urge to rush them to finish.
After their meal, John is in a good mood. He has roughly guessed that the reason why Alice did not refuse to be this close during dinner is mostly to make Edward give up.
In any case, he still cherishes the opportunity to be with Alice.
Even if her heart is not for him to take, it doesn’t matter, at least he can protect her by her side.
“I’ll send you back home.”
“Okay.” Alice smiles.
Edward cannot stand it anymore and blocks Alice’s way of getting into the car, “I want to talk to you.”
“Mr. Smith, I have nothing to discuss with you. Also, in the future, please refrain from showing up in the hospital unless it’s for medical reasons. This causes unnecessary misunderstandings and it is affecting
my life,” Alice cannot help but sneer.
Hearing this, Edward smiles and stares into Alice’s eyes, “Are you angry?”
Alice bites her lips, looks back at Edward with her stubborn phoenix eyes, and says word by word, “Mr. Smith, you think too much, I am just bored.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
The color in Edward’s eyes dims, and a cold breath seeps out.
“Let’s go.” As if not paying attention, Alice turns her head to the worried John. She turns around and holds her children’s hands, and walks towards the car.
Albert glances at Edward sympathetically. This is what happens when you mess with Mommy.
Poor useless daddy, the journey to chase his wife is still very difficult. Come on, Rebecca smiles sweetly and turns her head, takes Alice’s hand and leaves.
It isn’t until the car that Alice is in gradually moves out of sight that Edward smiles angrily, clenching his fists tightly. Alice, even if you don’t want to, I will not let you be with another man!
