Chapter 79 Intense Dispute
Later, Suzanne changed into a pair of short-sleeved home clothes and went to the dining hall.
After that scene just now, Suzanne felt very awkward. She kept her head lowered and ate across from him as usual.
There were a few dishes on the table, all of which were extremely bland and warm food, with a plate of dessert next to them.
Suzanne was stunned. Thinking of something, she couldn’t help blushing a little.
She always wanted to eat good food, but Edwiin had specially prepared these dishes except spicy and cold food for her period.
But it had been almost a week, and her period was gone. She didn’t have to be afraid of cold.
However, she didn’t dare to say this to Edwiin in a self-righteous manner. After all, the meal she was having right now was made by him. Besides, she didn’t have the guts to say that.
After dinner, Ruth put away the bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen.
Suzanne sneaked a glance at Edwiin. Seeing that he didn’t say anything while watching TV on the sofa, she went upstairs to fetch the documents that she had just brought back and trotted to the living room.
“Edwiin, are you free?”
Edwiin glanced at her and switched to another channel with the remote control. His voice was calm as he said, “Have you finally revealed your true motive?”
Suzanne was stunned. Why did these words sound so ironic?
She sat down next to him and moved back a little. She handed the document to him with a hopeful expression and whispered, “Why don’t you take a look at it first, Edwiin?”
Edwiin took the contract, casually opened it, and closed it after taking a few glances. “Your boss is ambitious.”
Suzanne nodded and the smile on her face was a little hollow. “Isn’t it because we want to increase ratings? Everyone’s goal is like this. It can’t be said that our boss has this idea alone.”
“Are you defending your boss now?”
Suzanne hurriedly waved his hand and smiled faintly. “Why don’t you take a look? If you think it’s too long, I can tell Mr. Hook. The interview time will be reduced to 30 minutes and the reward will be unchanged.”
Edwiin threw the document into her arms. His eyes were lowered and his voice was always cold. “I don’t accept interviews, especially on TV.”
Suzanne had a lot of thoughts in her heart. She couldn’t wait to slap him on the head and ask angrily, “Do you want to be interviewed? If you don’t, I’ll slap you to death!”
Suddenly, a pair of dark and cold eyes looked over at her, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as if she was smiling soundlessly.
Suzanne lowered her head and obediently restrained her thoughts. She no longer let her thoughts run wild.
How could she forget that Edwiin has been in the business world for nearly ten years and was already a wily old fox? His eyes were extremely sharp and he could see all her expressions easily.
To put it simply, the invitation failed this time.
Suzanne tugged on her shorts and felt a little helpless. However, there was nothing she could do. It seemed that she had to think of another solution at work tomorrow and see if she could invite another business tycoon.
Before she could leave in low spirits, Edwiin said coldly, “I’m going to Miranda on the 23rd.”
“Uh?” Suzanne blinked and replied hesitantly, “I know that.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“If we push back the schedule, I’ll return on the 26th.”Edwiin raised an eyebrow and reached out to her. “Give me a pen.”
Suzanne was stunned for a moment before replying and hurriedly retrieving her bag. After rummaging through it for a long time, she finally found the blue pen and handed it over along with the document.
Seeing Edwiin open the document and write his name on the signature of the contract without hesitation, Suzanne was very happy.
Edwiin signed it!
After signing the contract, Edwiin asked casually, “I met you and Vito in a cafe that day, didn’t I?”
Suzanne was stunned. Had he seen Vito ask her out for a talk that day?
She nervously fiddled with her fingers and forced a smile at him. With a soft voice, she said, “We broke up a long time ago. That was the last cup of coffee.”
Edwiin tilted his head and stared at her with his sharp eyes. He sneered, “Then why did you kiss him?”
“That was his birthday,” Suzanne said without hesitation. She didn’t seem to care that much. “I just kissed him on the cheek. It’s nothing.”
“You believe him just because he said that it was his birthday? Have you seen his ID card?” Edwiin bent down and approached her with a cold look in his eyes and a sharp voice. “Then I’ll say that it was my birthday that day. Do you believe me?”
“Edwiin, why are you so angry all of a sudden?” Suzanne took a few steps back, furrowed her thin brows, and looked a little unhappy. She said in a low voice, “Didn’t you say that you wouldn’t hurt him? You still made things difficult for him in the end.”
Edwiin was so angry that he almost laughed. “What’s wrong? He’s so useless that he came to you for help?”
Suzanne looked up and saw that his expression wasn’t good. Lowering her head again, she stubbornly rebutted, “You didn’t keep your promise and kept blaming others. Without asking for my opinion, you took the initiative to take revenge for me.”
This heartless bastard!
Edwiin’s eyes suddenly turned cold. He grabbed Suzanne’s slender neck and pressed her down on the sofa. “Suzanne, what are you dissatisfied with? Why are you arguing with me for such a loser?”
It was rare for Edwiin to lose his temper. Although he was angry last time, it was from a distance. It wasn’t as scary as this time, especially that look in his eyes. It was as if he wanted to kill her.
“I’ll make you watch him become a loser!” Edwiin tightened his grip and sneered at her like a devil. “I’ll make everyone despise.”
Suzanne’s eyes widened and she was very angry. “Edwiin!”
“I’m not your brother!” Edwiin scolded her coldly. He furrowed his brows and was about to shout. “Your surname is Reid, not Morrison! Now, in the future, I’ll never acknowledge you as my sister!”
If he admitted it, what would he become? He didn’t want to be her so-called brother!
Suzanne’s face turned pale. She looked at him in a daze. Her mouth trembled, but she couldn’t say anything.
“Are you afraid? Or are you afraid of me?” Edwiin sneered. He bent down and touched her face with his cold hand. The tip of his nose was almost touching her nose, and his heavy breath enveloped her.
“I wanted to hug you, but every time, those thoughts became just wishful thinking,” he said in a low voice. He slightly tilted his head, and his thin lips almost touched her pink and crystal-clear earlobe. “Do you know that you are the most beautiful at night?”
“That day, your smile was the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. You were so happy, like an angel’s. It made people unable to let go, just like the little black flower on your waist. They were all so charming.”
