Chapter 889
Half an hour had passed and Jane's heart had started to become anxious. She kept looking at the time, hoping Edward's tall and handsome figure would walk in through the door.
He, Edward Hughes, had purposely left her alone, and after half an hour, he did not immediately go to see her, but rather, after another 20 minutes, Edward finally walked into the resting room.
He pushed open the door and saw the woman standing with her back facing him.
He was slightly startled.
However, in the next second, the look of surprise in his eyes disappeared, for a moment just now, he had regarded Jane's back as Felicity's. Because they were all similar in height and were dressed in similar female attire, it was no wonder that Edward was stunned for a moment
"Elder Brother!" Jane turned her head around and saw Edward still holding onto the doorknob. He was just as she had remembered, wearing a black suit, white silk shirt, and his tall and straight body, giving off a formless pressure.
Jane looked at the young and handsome face that made her yearn for day and night. Her heart rate sped up, and shyness flashed across her fair face.
"Sorry, there are a lot of things. You must have been waiting for a long time!" Edward said indifferently.
Jane immediately shook her head, and said with a look of willingness: "In the past, I also often waited for Elder Brother, I have never been tired of it, and have gotten used to it, and Elder should have a rest, don't be too tired!"
"I'm used to working!" Edward casually replied.
After that, Edward looked at the empty space on the table, and frowned, then shouted out softly: "Larry, why are you not sending Jane a cup of water?"
Upon hearing that, Larry immediately ran over to apologize: "Young Master, I'm sorry, I was so busy that I forgot about it, I will ask someone to send water in now!"
Just a moment ago, Jane had still not realized how wronged she was by being left alone. Now that Edward was concerned about her, it caused her heart to churn and she actually felt a little touched.
"Why are you here?" Edward sat on the sofa at the side.
Jane also sat on the sofa after him.
Her beautiful eyes could not hide the emotions as she said in a gentle voice, "I heard father say that Elder Brother is here and I was overjoyed for a moment. I wanted to come over to see you."
Edward smiled faintly: "Thank you for your praise. I have an appointment with uncle for dinner tomorrow, you should come over too!"
"Alright, as long as it's an invitation from Elder Brother , I will of course go." Jane immediately said with a face full of happiness. Her gaze seemed to be glued to Edward's body, unable to shift away.
Jane originally felt unrest in her heart due to not having obtained this man before, but now that she saw
him, a hint of greed surged up in her heart once again. She really wanted to jump into this man's embrace, even if he gave her only a hug, and let go of her immediately, she was already satisfied.
"What has Uncle been busy with these days? Do you know?" Edward asked with concern.
"Daddy has been resting at home recently and hasn't done anything else." Of course, Jane did not dare to leak out any information about John Hughes, so she pretended to be ignorant.
"Is that so? How is uncle feeling? I saw him at the airport today, I didn't have time to ask him in detail." Hearing Jane's reply, Edward knew that she and John were in the same group.
Hehe, since this woman is standing on the opposite side of him, Edward is not going to do anything to her.
Jane's face instantly turned sorrowful, "Daddy's health is not as good as before. Recently, he has been suffering from headaches and insomnia." Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Edward laughed coldly in the bottom of his heart. Jane really knew how to give John a good impression, and actually acted out a bitter scene.
"Then take care of him in the future!" Edward said indifferently.
"Elder Brother, how many days are you staying here? Do you have time to go out and play? There are quite a few scenic spots around here..."
"I'm flying home the day after tomorrow, so I don't have time to play!" Edward interrupted her.
"Going back the day after tomorrow?" Jane's face was filled with disappointment.
She was hoping that Edward would play with her once.
Edward's expression softened a little. "I want to be leisurely with my children, so I want to return early."
Hearing these words, the smile on Jane's face was hard to maintain.
"You're so good to her!" Jane finally stopped laughing, her face full of sadness.
Edward knew that Jane would never give up. He nodded: "Yes, she is the woman I love the most. I will treat her well in my life!"
Like a blade, it stabbed right into Jane's chest, causing her face to pale from the pain.
"Elder Brother, will you still remember the scenes where we were together in the past? You taught me how to ride a horse, and I taught you how to play, and how happy we were at that time." Jane's expression was filled with sorrow, she looked at Edward with deep emotions, hoping to garner a good impression on him.
"I forgot!" with just that one sentence, he had completely erased the last hope that was on Jane's face.
Her entire body shivered as she lowered her head in grief, "Elder Brother had a good memory, wasn't it always good? You have photographic memory, how could you forget it?"
Edward's gaze turned ice-cold. "Jane, of course I won't forget how you hurt me in the past."
Jane's expression stiffened again, her face filled with shame and unease.
"Elder Brother, that matter has already passed so long. Are you still not relieved? Dad and I have been punished." Jane suddenly started crying.
However, Edward ignored her tears and coldly continued, "Since it has already passed, then don't bring it up again in the future!"
"But I will never forget those happy time I spent together with you. Elder Brother, no matter how much time pass by, I will always love you and will never change." Jane suddenly stood up, crying sorrowfully, and walked towards Edward step by step: "Elder Brother , can you hug me?"
However, Edward stood up and coldly said: "I will not hug any woman other than my wife."
Jane's mind buzzed, as her mind turned blank.
Then, Edward headed towards door: "You can go!"
Jane originally wanted to take the chance to let him hug her, but she never expected that Edward would actually just leave like that.
As Jane's vision failed, her eyes which were still filled with tears, instantly became dark and gloomy.
"Edward Hughes, you will be mine sooner or later. As long as I don't give up, I will have a chance to get you." she thought.
