Can Bella be angry with Edward?But, indeed, that's what she's doing right now.Just imagine, when her longing peaks, hoping to hug or kiss even for a moment, Bella daringly contacts Edward.At first, she felt lucky that he responded. Since it was already late at night, Bella was convinced that Julia was already asleep, so she could meet secretly even for a short while.Edward agreed.The man promised for sure.However, after waiting for so long, Bella waited in vain for Edward to come. Eventually, she ended up falling asleep.Frustrated and considering that Edward couldn't keep his promise, Bella decided not to confront him for these two days. Ignoring all phone calls and short messages containing apologies sent by the man.Anyway, Bella is upset.Her mood has been bad for the past month, and this incident makes her even more annoyed.No need to be reminded, Bella knows her place isn't anyone to Edward. Not a girlfriend, let alone a lawful wife, which means she has no right to be ang
"Julia, tonight Kairos is hosting a farewell party before he leaves for Italy. He invited me, you, and Bella to attend tonight."Edward deliberately contacts Julia by phone. Yesterday, he forgot to inform his wife about the event Kairos would be hosting."A party? Tonight? Quite sudden. Besides, I might be coming home later than usual today.""So, you won't be able to make it?" Edward asks to confirm. Deep inside, he prays fervently that Julia won't be able to attend. That means he would have the chance to go with Bella."I might not make it in time. Besides, I'm not sure if Kairos really wants me to attend his party."Edward maintains his tone. He tries his best to act normal and not show any hint of joy because Julia seems to be unavailable to accompany him tonight."Well, alright then. I'll just relay Kairos's message.""Sure, Honey. Forgive me for not being able to accompany you. Anyway, I'll get back to work."After Julia hangs up, Edward decides to head home right away. He takes
Previously, Julia indeed appeared so busy and focused on the catwalk. Especially since the biggest fashion show in the coming months was about to take place, where she would be the main star of the event.Accompanied by Aaron, who had been sitting in the audience seats since earlier, Julia strutted and showcased her abilities. Until it was time for a break, she received a call from Santiago."Hi, Daddy!"Julia greeted playfully. She knew that when Santiago called, he definitely wanted something and she was obliged to grant it.Yet, just two days ago, they had already met. In fact, Julia had even accompanied and served him from morning till evening."What's up? Do you want to meet me again?" A sigh was heard from the other end. The man spoke with his deep voice."At the beginning of the month, I have a schedule for visits to Milan and Rome. I want you to come with me to accompany and, of course, serve me.""At the beginning of the month? That means in a few days." Julia confirmed."Ye
"Edward, darling...."Bella and Edward turned in unison when they heard someone calling out. Turning around, they found Julia approaching with a stunning appearance that dazzled the other party guests.Bella felt embarrassed, of course. She was afraid that her presence with Edward would make Julia angry and think all sorts of things."Julia, you came?" Edward greeted when his wife stood perfectly in front of him. "Aren't you supposed to be---""My training is done, darling. So, I decided to catch up. I'm not too late, am I?" Then Julia's gaze shifted to Bella standing beside Edward. She scanned her from head to toe. "Did you both come together?""Y-yes, Ma'am," Bella replied nervously.Julia just nodded. Without much talk or small talk, she immediately pulled Edward to accompany her to meet an old friend who happened to be a guest at the party.Meanwhile, Bella was left alone. Even in the midst of the party, she had to watch how Edward and Julia were forced to dance together.Many of
"How are you feeling? Are you much better now?"Before heading to work, Edward asked Julia, making sure once again if his wife's condition was much improved compared to before.This wasn't just idle chatter or seeking sympathy. Three days ago, Julia had indeed been hit by the flu and had a high fever. Perhaps due to exhaustion and exerting too much energy working and making love simultaneously, Julia's condition eventually plummeted, and she fell ill.Because she kept whining and acting coy, Edward had to give in and not go to the office. He had to take care of his wife, and only today could he go back to work because there were matters he couldn't neglect."Don't worry. I'm much better because you've taken care of me wholeheartedly."Julia, still lying on the bed, then stretched out her arms, asking Edward to come closer and give her a hug before leaving for work.Edward couldn't refuse. If he avoided it as he usually did, Julia would start whining and immediately accuse him of chang
"Is all your stuff ready?"Edward asked once again, ensuring that Julia hadn't forgotten anything she needed for Milan and Rome."Yes, Darling. You don't need to worry. Clara helped me pack everything neatly and thoroughly. I've double-checked twice already. I don't think we've left anything behind."Julia then waved for Edward to come closer to her sitting on the edge of the bed. When he stood in front of her, she pulled him down until he was seated. In one swift move, Julia shifted positions and suddenly found herself straddling her husband."Julia!" Edward was certainly surprised. Though he knew Julia liked to act impulsively, he didn't anticipate his wife making him lie down like this."I'll definitely miss you a lot."Julia drew closer to his face. Instead of responding to Edward's protesting question due to his surprise, she whispered directly into his ear. She even kissed him, teasingly darting her wet tongue. This action sent shivers down Edward's spine. "What about you? Will
Originally, Edward had dreamed that while Julia went abroad, he could spend time with Bella. In fact, Edward had even gone as far as taking a 7-day leave to realize all the plans he had made as a form of retribution for the difficulties and lack of attention he had given to Bella lately.However, until today, on the third day of Julia's stay in Milan, Bella had been avoiding him instead. Not only could they not meet or sleep together, but even facing Edward seemed like an effort for her.Edward had tried many ways and efforts to melt Bella's heart. Even tonight, when he accompanied Bella to her prenatal check-up, Bella remained silent all the way home."Bella... how about we stop for dinner first? You must be hungry, right?"On the way home, Edward took the initiative to invite Bella to dinner. Instead of accepting his offer, Bella didn't respond at all, as if she had a toothache.Tired of Bella's rejection, when they arrived home and were on the second floor, Edward grabbed Bella's a
"Anyway, I'm sure Kairos didn't see me."Almost every day Julia recited that sentence. Still feeling anxious, afraid that the other day Kairos caught sight of her enjoying dinner with Santiago.For whatever reason, Julia knew Kairos was a leaky guy who liked to meddle in other people's affairs. If he found out she was cheating, it was certain Kairos would report it to Edward.No!That must not happen.However, Julia would try to cover up the affair scandal she had been carrying on with Edward. However, she did not want her marriage to fall apart.Again, even though she didn't love Edward, Julia needed the status of being the wife of a conglomerate. Moreover, there were many privileges and benefits she received as the wife and daughter-in-law of the Darkwood family."Darling... I miss you."Still in bed, Julia deliberately made a video call. She wanted to see what her husband was doing at home."Aren't you working? It's already past eight. Why are you still at home?"From the beginning
