When Avan wanted to answer, the phone started ringing. It was Sophie’s parents. They called to ask when Sophie would return back ho.
Hearing their question, the anxiety and annoyance on Avan’s face disappeared imdiately. He started drinking the juice at a relaxing speed.
But Sophie got anxious, "Laty’s mom, could I stay here for several more minutes. I can also sleep with Laty..."
Hearing this, Edie fell into a dilemma, "But your mom wants you to go back ho early. She was worried that you might be late for school tomorrow. You can still co here on weekends to play with Laty, okay?"
Sophie had no choice but nodded. Then she turned around and ran towards Laty. Then she said next to Laty’s ears,
"Laty, stay away from that guy."
That guy?
Laty looked towards the direction Sophie pointed. She saw Avan drinking juice quietly. When seeing Laty’s e eyes, he imdiately showed an innocent cute smile.
What has he done to Sophie?
Sophie has always exaggerated everything. Laty has already gotten used to it. So she waved hands and said, "Okay, I know that. You can leave now. See you tomorrow."
Seeing impatience on Laty’s face, Sophie got angrier. She ran away imdiately.
Edie and Stuart sent Sophie back to her ho. Then Sophie’s parents invited them to play cards. They were so enthusiastic that Edie couldn’t refuse them.
This ti, Stuart has learned a lesson. He lost the ga once per four. He played this trick so many tis that even Sophie’s dad realized it. He looked so awkward.
Sitting beside Stuart, Edie felt really embarrassed. She wanted to ask him to change his strategy. She wanted to tell her no one would play like this.
But Stuart didn’t know this. He was so bad at dealing with relationships.
Finally, when Sophie’s parents sent them out of the door, Edie heard Sophie’s dad murmuring to his wife, "We should hide our card behind when they co next ti. So embarrassed to play with such a skillful player."
"I think so. I don’t want to play card anymore."
Hearing their conversation, Edie wanted to burst into tears.
It started snowing outside. Seeing snow falling down out of the car, Edie said, "Stuart, I think all these are incredible. They are too good to be true. We finally get married. We finally lived together again."
"How could I prove to you that all these are true. Like this?"
Then Stuart held her small hands tightly with his warm hands.
Feeling the warmth from Stuart, Edie could no longer felt the coldness outside. She felt so warm at the bottom of the heart because of the man sitting beside her.
She pressed her lips without saying a word. She just smiled brightly as if a new mood was hidden insides her eyes.
If she could see such a life with Stuart for the rest of her life, she wished it started as soon as possible.
***
In the following days, Edie got busy photographing and running between ho and shooting field. But she didn’t need to worry about anything else. Stuart has handled everything else for her.
Soon, it was Wednesday. It was the last day Nina stayed at A. She had already booked the flight tonight. After finishing the shooting, she would return back to Milan tonight.
Last night, Stuart already told Edie that he had an ergency eting today. He had to go back to help Aaron sign the contract. So he couldn’t stay with Edie on Wednesday.
Stuart was so worried about Edie. But Edie guaranteed to him that she could handle everything alone. Stuart finally agreed with her to go to the shooting spot alone.
When Edie woke up this morning, Stuart has already left. He might be in his study.
He had prepared all her clothes for her.
She got up and walked into the bathroom. Stuart has prepared the toothpaste and warm water for her. All she needed to do was to turn on the tap.
After brushing her teeth and cleaning teeth, she went downstairs for breakfast. The between-maid has prepared breakfast. She told Stuart had not enough ti to prepare the breakfast. So she prepared milk and at porridge for Edie.
After breakfast, Edie stepped out. Unexpectedly, she heard the sound of walking upstairs. Edie looked upwards. It was from Stuart.
It seems the eting has lasted for quite a long ti. Stuart looked so tired. He massaged the middle of his eyebrows while walking downstairs.
Edie walked to him and asked in a surprising voice, "Why are you coming downstairs? Aren’t you busy?"
"I think you might leave at this mont. So I co out to send you off."
Hearing these words, Edie couldn’t help herself smiling, "Are you missing ?"
"Yes."
Stuart didn’t want to lie to her. He slightly hit her little head. Deep in his eyes were his love for her.
He sent her to the door and wore a scarf on her neck, "I would pick you up tonight. Call when you finish."
"Okay, bye. Take care of yourself. Don’t be too tired."
She stood on her tiptoe and kissed on his thin lips, "Morning kiss."
"So, I’ve missed lots of morning kiss before?" Stuart raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah. I would kiss you every day from now on."Edie took her bag and got into the car,
They photographed inside the studio today. When she arrived, Nina and her team have already ready.
Everyone did a great job on the last day. Nina needed to catch a flight tonight. She could not be too exhausted. So Edie finished all at four o’clock in the afternoon, leaving Nina several minutes to take a rest.
Nina told Edie her friend would co here to visit her. Edie thought it was none of her business. But when Edie was packing up her staff, she saw a gorgeous woman coming to her. Edie was shocked.
"Queenie Fox?"
Edie was so astonished that she scread out.
The friend Nina ntioned just now was Queenie Fox.
It has been more than five years since Edie saw Queenie Fox last ti. Queenie beca much more beautiful. As the old saying went, ti made true beauty more gorgeous. She didn’t get any wrinkles on her face. Instead, as she got older, she beca more gentle, peaceful, and elegant.
Seeing Edie, Queenie showed a gentle smile, "Edie, haven’t seen you for a long ti."
Looking at Queenie and Edie, Nina asked surprisingly, "You’ve already known each other?"
"Yeah. I know Edie earlier than you know her," Queenie said.
Edie didn’t expect that she would et Queenie here. She suddenly realized sothing, "Queenie, I rember you’ve gotten married, right? I haven’t congratulated you. You know, I...."
Edie smiled embarrassingly.
Queenie had already gotten married three years ago. Her husband was Todd Anderson.
More surprisingly, Queenie was reported to have a bastard during that period. Everyone was talking about her at that ti.
But Edie was "dead" at that ti. She wanted to call Queenie, but she was worried that Stuart might know. So she didn’t say a word to Queenie three years ago.
