Chapter 449 - The Maze
Elena pulled the corners of her mouth and just sat there, her eyes falling now and then in the direction the doctor had just gone upstairs.
Edward will see all of this in the eyes, a moment of jealousy, his men originally held her hand, a moment of confiscation force pinched her, Elena subconsciously immediately shake off, looking at him warily. Edward then woke up as if from a dream, panicked and opened his mouth to explain, "I'm sorry Elena, I didn't mean to do that just now!"
With that, he tried to reach out again to grab her tightly, but she dodged it sensitively.
Elena's face straightened, "I'm thirsty, didn't Mr. Ford say he wanted tea? How come we haven't seen any tea yet?"
"Yes, drink tea, drink tea!" Edward nodded and instructed the maid behind him, "Why don't you go make tea and stand here silly!
The maid was suddenly mentioned, scared as if a bird of prey, immediately feet quickly into the pantry to work.
Edward looked at the servant's action could not help but shake his head awkwardly and said, "Elena, really sorry ah, these subordinates just do not know how to do things, everyone has to be reminded to understand!" "Hmm."
Elena faintly responded, and her gaze couldn't help but glance in the direction of the upstairs again.
Edward laughed and patted the back of her hand soothingly, "Don't worry too much, you'll be fine soon after you've had your fever shot and eaten your medicine."
The latter nodded, just as the maids got in, she nodded and smiled lightly at the end, lowered her eyes and took a sip of tea, also hiding the full emotion under her eyes just right.
Edward looked at her nonchalant appearance, his heart could not hide the sourness, "Elena, I look forward to seeing you all these days, but now it's so easy to finally see you, but it's because of Kent's blessing......" "He was wounded for a good reason, so I was naturally worried."
"So what if it was me who got hurt too? Would you care!" Edward looked at her with a hopeful face, and the answer he wanted was all written on his face.
Elena looked at it, but couldn't help but smile on her face, "I'm afraid Mr. Ford was joking, you're staying here fine, and you have someone to protect you when you leave the house, how could you get hurt?"
"But my heart is full of trauma! Only you can make up for it......" he nervously grabbed her hand and pressed it to his chest, "Elena, my heart has been dead, dead for twenty years since the year Joanna left me, and at one point I thought that I would never be able to see her again, and I could only die alone like this......"
"Mr. Ford......" Elena jerked her hand back hard, but the strength of the men and women was so disparate that she couldn't shake it.
Edward's face is sincere, but the bottom of his eyes are full of hurt, "Elena, I know you must be the last thought Joanna left me, and the only expectation she gave me to stay in this world. ......" "Edward!"
Elena, inexplicably frightened, shouted his name in a stern voice.
Edward suddenly came back to his senses, which realized that he had lost his temper, a look of confusion.
Elena jerked her hand back and sat down on the other couch beside him, "I don't know what you're talking about Joanna, and I don't know any Joanna, I came over and just wanted to know about Kent's injury!"
Her words carried a firmness and a strong resistance.
Edward drew back his hand awkwardly, somewhat remorseful of his impulsiveness earlier, "Elena, I'm sorry, I was probably just jealous, you know, I've been looking forward to this day since before, but now that it's happened, and you're right in front of me, but it's for Kent... ..."
Elena's afterglow fell on his body, the bottom of his eyes without a trace of temperature, as if in front of the silent covered face crying is just a stranger.
Edward took a deep breath and swallowed all his emotions back into his stomach, "Elena, why do you Kent are accepted, but only can not accept me? He's even your half-brother, and even ......"
"Even what?"
Edward raised his face, his eyes still red, "Elena, there are many things you don't know, but even if you don't know I have to tell you, the reason why you and I have been separated for so many years is all because of Kent's mother!" Elena was slightly stunned and subconsciously looked over at him.
Edward gritted his teeth and continued, "Who in G City doesn't know that I only have a deep love for Joanna, and who doesn't know that that is my soon-to-be wife, and I even prepared an unprecedented and spectacular wedding for her! I've been preparing for this wedding for over a year......'
Kent's mother, it's her, she ruined everything, and Joanna hates my guts!"
They forced him to betray Joanna, and Joanna rejected him even more, and finally even went so far as to leave and disappear from his world, and he hated, hated to kill all of them!
Because they ruined the happiness he was about to have, in the end, he could only hold a corpse and live a miserable life!
Edward's words word by word all fell in Elena's heart, she heard everything, her heart inexplicably can not set off any ripples.
Half a sound before she opened her mouth and interrupted his confession, "If she loved you so much, why didn't she choose to believe you and why ...... wasn't she on your side?"
"Because Kent's mother has my flesh and blood! She gave birth to Kent behind my back! Joanna, even if she loves me, can't accept that I have another child outside......Elena, you are also a woman, you should be able to understand......"
She blinked her eyes, slowly sorting out what he had said, and couldn't help but follow the confusion in her eyes.
She does understand that even if any woman loves a man again, she can't accept that person has another woman outside, even that woman has given birth to a child for the man she loves, but Joanna?
Why is she there when she can't forgive Edward?
It was as if everything had fallen into a maze, so she couldn't help but speculate .......
Edward didn't notice her mind and continued, "Elena, imagine, you can even forgive Kent, so why are you the only one who excludes me? I am your father, your real father! And he, Kent, is the source of everything that separates us as father and daughter!" When he said this, he couldn't hide the hatred in his eyes.
Elena suddenly remembered the first time Logan and Jacob mentioned his profile in front of her, for the love of his life, never married in his life
