The restaurant was famous for its spicy food. So most dishes here were spicy. But Stuart had a weak stomach. He couldn’t eat too much spicy food.
She ordered several dishes for Stuart, "don’t add any spicy ingredients. My husband couldn’t eat spicy food."
"Sorry, Madam. Our chef could only cook spicy dishes. Besides, without spicy ingredients, all dishes would lose their flavor."
"Well...here’s your tips. Please help . I know it might be a little difficult.
But my husband really couldn’t eat any spicy food. Please. Besides, pour him a cup of warm tea. Our tea is cold. It is bad for his health."
"Madam, your husband must be the happiest guy in this world, "the waitress said, "don’t worry. I would ask our chef not to add any spicy."
"Thank you very much." Edie smiled happily.
As she turned around, Edie saw Stuart’s looking at her. He walked to her slowly.
"What’s up?"
"Edie, how deeply do you love to rember these trifles for ?" he said in a low voice.
As she reminded the waitress over and over again, his heart was suddenly softened.
"My husband also loved deeply and rembered everything about ."
Edie stared at him and said gently.
Stuart frowned.
At the mont, he suddenly wanted to give up everything and told her everything. But....
His phone rang.
Stuart saw the number on the screen. Then he turned around and took the call,
William laughed on the other side,
"Dear K, could you hold up for a little longer? The fewer people know about this, the better. If you fail this ti, it would be much more difficult to catch him. Soone in your team is the mole. Are you sure that man is not any man around your wife? If your little wife were frightened, that man would detect it imdiately. He would do sothing to Edie imdiately. You are clear about that, aren’t you?"
Stuart was extrely angry, "are you threatening to lie to her?"
"what happened proves that my thod works. Now he’s the mole inside the group. We need to ensure that we also have sothing he couldn’t find. The mole knew everything about you. But you couldn’t know his purpose unless you stay with Hicks."
"Guarantee Edie’s safety. If she’s hurt, I won’t let you go, "Stuart’s voice sounded like ice at night.
William laughed. His voice was unique because he swallowed a firestone before when a division caught him.
His sound was like the curse from hell.
"As long as you give what I want, I would give everything you want. This is a business. Totally fair for both of us."
Stuart finally suppressed his anger, "Okay."
William was satisfied with his answer.
"But, I still couldn’t believe that you really risk losing the L.N. group just to protect a little woman. I might ruin your family."
"You couldn’t do that."
"I like people like you. Brave and brutal. I am sure I would get whatever I want in this deal. I promise I would give you what you want. But all I could do was your little wife’s safety. I couldn’t assure you that she still loved you after all these."
"I know. You don’t have to say this rubbish."
Stuart hung down the phone impatiently.
Then he looked around. As expected, a strong man with a mustache in a black coat was drinking a cup of tea at the corner.
It was William. He was good at changing his appearance.
Stuart stared at him for a while and then turned around and left,
Scarlet already arrived, with Chandler. Edie was a little surprised. She asked the waitress to add a chair for them.
"No, no-no. Chandler, you can sit on my seat. I need to buy sothing. You can order now."
"But..." Edie got confused. It was Scarlet that wanted to tell her sothing. Why did she co with Chandler?
Scarlet kissed on her face, "I brought you a present. But I left it at ho. I need to use Chandler’s car for a while. Please take care of him for . Love you."
Then, she left.
Edie felt a little embarrassed, "Sorry, Scarlet didn’t tell you also co here. I don’t like spicy food. So I just ordered several light dishes. Do you want to add other dishes?"
"I don’t like spicy, either."
"Great," Edie said.
Suddenly, Stuart walked to the table and said, "None of us like spicy food. How about going to another restaurant?"
Chandler was shocked. Imdiately he knew the man was standing in front of him.
"Stuart Yates."
"What the hell are you doing here? "Edie got completely confused.
"As a husband, I think I should help my wife find her next husband. I could pay for you. You can do whatever you want. If you decide to get married, sign the divorce paper as soon as possible,"
Stuart showed her an indifferent smile.
It hurt Edie.
Really hurt.
Find her next husband.
What the hell was he talking about? Even though she was about to divorce him, he had no right to insult her and ruin her reputation.
Edie wanted to explain. But she held all the words back next second. She thought he might want her to cheat on him so he could divorce her imdiately.
All right then. She could satisfy him.
Seeing this, Chandler imdiately recalled Scarlet’s description of this man.
He was really an asshole.
As Chandler wanted to explain to him to stop him hurting Edie, Edie held Chandler’s hands and walked out of the door.
"It is a great opportunity. We can eat whatever we want. The idiot would pay for us. Chandler, what do you like?"
"What" Chandler froze imdiately.
"I see. You are not familiar with this place, right? I know a great restaurant here. We can go there."
Then, Edie led him towards the restaurant.
As Edie walked on the road, she felt sothing wrong. She turned around.
Stuart stood there, staring at her. There’s sothing different in his eyes.
She thought he might be sad.
