"I never care about this. All I want is the girl I love. That’s most important for . But....I don’t think Edie would fall in love with . She’s an actress, a popular actress. I believe her husband might be quite wealthy...."
"Well..." Scarlet hesitated for a while and said, "her husband’s the president of L.N. group, Stuart."
Chandler stopped suddenly and stared at Scarlet in astonishnt.
Luckily Scarlet fastened the safety belt.
"What? Edie’s president’s wife?"
Scarlet took a glimpse at him, "what? Already frightened?"
Chandler rejected imdiately, "I am just a little surprised. But no matter who he is, he’s an asshole, if he really did this to his own wife."
Scarlet slapped his shoulder. She liked what he said.
"So. It’s your chance. If you want to chase after Edie, I will spare no effort to help you. What do you say?"
Chandler nodded without any hesitation. It was the first ti he fell in love with a girl, "Okay. Since he didn’t treasure her, I would take her away. I swear I would take good care of her."
Scarlet laughed. It was really easy to fool this boy. She was satisfied. Then, she sent a text to Stuart.
She had two numbers of Stuart. But neither was his personal number. Edie gave these two to her so that she could contact him to ask about Edie’s life.
Scarlet never expected she used these two numbers in this situation.
"Stuart, soone fell in love with Edie. At Ocean restaurant, she would see her next husband, at 9 o’clock tonight. Since you’ve already cheated on her, she has the right to find a better man."
Then, she burst into laughter.
Based on her knowledge of n, no man would bear her wife dating another guy even if he didn’t love her wife anymore.
Not to ntion the man like Stuart. She didn’t believe he could stand this.
Then, she would catch him and lock him with Edie in the sa room.
Then, sothing would happen naturally after a night.
Even Stuart still couldn’t rember anything about Edie, and he would fall in love with Edie again.
It was her responsibility to guard Edie’s happiness.
After arriving at ho, Edie got a ssage from Scarlet, "9 o’clock tonight. Ocean restaurant. I need to talk to you."
Edie was confused. She called Scarlet. But Scarlet didn’t answer her question. She just emphasized several tis that she must arrive at the restaurant at 9 o’clock tonight."
Edie finally packed up and had Mr. Bates to drive her there.
Before getting in the car, Edie hesitated for a while and asked Mr. Bates, "when would Stuart co back?"
"Mrs. Yates, Mr. Yates, already forgot you. So his life also changed, like those days before he t you. He would work too late."
"I see. I almost forgot. Sorry." Edie bites her lower lip in embarrassnt.
Stuart was no longer the man familiar to her. He was totally different from Edie’s perspective.
She got in the car and arrived at the restaurant before 9 o’clock.
Scarlet already made a reservation for her, but she hadn’t arrived. So Edie just waited there alone.
Suddenly, she heard a man’s voice, "are you waiting for soone? "he sounded really cold.
She was too familiar with the sound that she couldn’t help herself trembling slightly.
Stuart?
Why did he co here?
She looked at him confusingly, "Mr. Bates told you would work so late tonight. What do you do here?"
To work late?
So she thought she could date with another man behind him?
She really dared to do this.
He wanted to torture her at the mont. But he couldn’t do this now.
Finally, he clichéd teeth and sat on her opposite, in silence.
"Wait...you couldn’t sit there...."
It was Scarlet’s seat.
"Why?" Stuart squinted. He sounded a little unpleasant.
Edie could tell that. But she couldn’t understand.
It was just a seat.
He was the president of L.N. He could have anything he wanted. Why should he sit here? What about Hicks? Where was she now?
She looked around, "have you had dinner? Where’s Hicks?"
"She went back to the office."
Edie felt a little upset, "so you co here to have dinner? I like their food. Delicious. It is indeed hard to make another reservation. I can help you. My friend would co here soon."
He already forgot her na. Certainly, he forgot the na of her friend.
So Edie didn’t ntion Scarlet’s na.
But Stuart didn’t know it was Scarlet.
Stuart felt.... stomachache.
He squinted, "Your friend? Have we t before?"
"Of course not. But we are best friends for many years."
Best friend? Dating with your best friend?
Was he too cruel this afternoon? So she finally gave up.
But they were still married legally. She couldn’t date anyone now.
Stuart held fist tightly under the table. But he didn’t show any on the face.
He finally got the aning of "The evil we bring on ourselves is the hardest to bear." If Edie really fell in love with another man, it was God’s punishnt on him.
No, he couldn’t let it happen.
Stuart stood up imdiately and held her hands without a word.
"What are you doing? What the hell are you doing here?"
"I suddenly recalled sothing with you. We are interrupted in the middle of last ti. Now we can continue. I think I can recall more."
Stuart said coldly.
But behind the coldness was sothing strange.
Edie got rid of his hands, "I’ve been living with you for such a long ti. Of course, you recall sothing."
"I an sothing special."
"Whatever. But if you want to stay here, I can make a reservation for you. Otherwise, you should leave now. My friend would arrive soon."
"Okay, then. Make a reservation for ." Stuart squinted and said coldly.
His little wife never changed. She was always stubborn.
He...really didn’t know how to handle her.
Edie walked to the cashier desk to ask the receptionist. Luckily, there was still a table for four.
