Chapter 752
Felicity suddenly spoke out, interrupting the warm times between father and daughter.
Arya immediately jumped down from Edward's embrace, with moon-like eyes, she ran to Felicity's side with a smile and pointed at Edward with smile, "Mummy, Daddy didn't seem to be very happy just now, you comfort him, I'll go and play with brother!"
The little fellow had grown bigger and bigger, and she had become more aware and tactful. Previously, she didn't know to give her parents some private space, but now, she knew.
Felicity looked at Edward in shock.
Her daughter's words caught her attention.
Edward never thought that his daughter would be so concerned about him, his handsome face was stunned, when Felicity looked over with an inquiring look, he actually subconsciously avoided her gaze.
"Who did you just answer? Is it a job? Is there any problem with your company?" Felicity thought that his mood was not good, and that it must be related to the phone call he had just received.
Edward shook his head, and replied in a low voice, "No, the company does not have any difficulties, do not listen to your daughter's nonsense, I'm fine!"
"It's good that you're fine. I think my daughter is making a big fuss!" Felicity chuckled.
Edward raised his gaze and looked at her sweet smile. Although she still had a bandage wrapped around her head, she was still very beautiful.
However, how many things had such a delicate woman hidden from him?
In the past, Edward felt that Felicity was as innocent as a daughter. Her thoughts were simple and she would never lie to him, nor do anything to hurt their relationship.
Could he still trust her?
"I have urgent matters to attend to at the company. You can rest at home. I need to rush over to take care of them!" Edward walked to her, raised his slender fingers and tidied up the few strands of hair in front of her ears as he spoke in a soft and gentle voice.
"Alright, go back to work. I'm fine!" Felicity also knew that in this past week, he had delayed too much time for himself. The company was busy to begin with, so he was sure that he had to take care of most of the official matters personally.
"If there is anything you need, please call me. If you want to eat anything, tell Old Garry to cook it." Even though Edward wanted to leave, he couldn't stop worrying about her, which was why he kept reminding her about everything.
Felicity lowered her head and chuckled, then nodded, "Don't worry about me, I'm an adult and not a child. If I want to eat something, I will definitely get Old Garry to help me out. If you have any emergency, just leave and deal with it."
Edward looked at her smiling eyes, sighed, and said meaningfully, "Felicity, you still make me worried."
"Why?" Felicity blinked her eyes, as she did not understand what he meant.
Edward let out a low sigh, "Nothing, I'm just afraid that you'll get into trouble again. Take care of yourself, and tonight, I'll come back early. Oh right, tonight, I'll call Richard home for a meal."
After Felicity heard Richard's name, her eyes flashed twice. After that, she lowered her head and replied, "Okay, I'II tell your grandmother later, and ask Old Garry to prepare a few more dishes."
Edward had intentionally mentioned his brother's name just now, so his sharp eyes were closely staring at every single expression on her face.
When he saw her black eyes evade his gaze, it was as if two sharp knives had pierced into his heart. He felt a dull pain.
When Felicity turned back to look at him again, she only saw the tall figure that left in a hurry.
When she saw his figure disappearing down the stairs, Felicity suddenly lost all the strength in her body, and picked the closest sofa to sit on.
She did not know why, but when Richard's name was mentioned, she felt inexplicably nervous and afraid.
It was as if she had really done something that let Edward down.
Hiding this from him was a betrayal of their true loyalty.
Felicity held her forehead with one hand and for a moment, she didn't know what to do.
Even if it was any other thing, she would definitely not hide anything from Edward, but just this one thing alone, she wanted to hide it for her entire life.
With a cold expression on his face, Edward sat in the car. The scenery outside the window was quickly moving away, but his eyes gradually became blurry, and somewhat empty.
This kind of mood was truly unpleasant.
He was willing to suspect anything, but he did not want to suspect the relationship between his brother and Felicity.
He was afraid that the moment he opened his eyes, the ten thousand arrows would pierce his heart.
The more he was afraid, the more he didn't want to touch it. However, he didn't want the feeling to sink to the bottom of the sea.
"Boss, where are you going?" The driver had always been tense and nervous. Just now, Edward had immediately let him drive the car the moment he got on the car.
Thus, at this moment, after taking a few detours, driver was still bold enough to ask him.
"Let's go to the company!" Edward leaned against the back of the chair tiredly.
The past few days of accompanying Felicity in the hospital had also caused him to be extremely tired.
After arriving at the company, Edward slept in his resting room. When he woke up, it was already 2 PM.
He propped himself up and leaned against the bed. He was like a lovelorn, inexplicably sad.
He reached for his phone and looked at his brother's number.
In the past, he would unhesitatingly pull out whatever it was that happened to him.
But now, why was it so difficult to get through to him?
Edward shook his head, in the end, he still rang Richard.
When Richard saw his brother call, it was as if he saw a vengeful spirit demanding for his life.
Although this analogy was too excessive, but this was Richard's mental description. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
He was really afraid of receiving a call from his big brother.
However, he had no choice but to accept.
Therefore, he could only pick up the phone.
Then, with his usual lazy tone, he asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Felicity’s home so come home for dinner!" Whether it was intentionally or not, Edward still mentioned her name.
Richard stared blankly at the other end of the phone for a few seconds, then coughed lightly and replied seriously, "Okay, after I finish my work, I'll definitely rush over."
"You must come!" Edward still heard the meaning of his brother's pause, and his handsome face instantly sunk.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely come, I'II definitely bring Eliza along too!" Richard intentionally dragged Elizabeth into this because he wanted his brother to believe that he had a girlfriend.
"Alright!" After Edward finished speaking, he immediately hung up.
Richard held his phone, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly felt extremely regretful, why? Why did he put himself in such a predicament?
