Billionaire’s Mistress

As soon as Eugene and I entered the room, we smelled a strong smell of alcohol. I covered my

When Myrna saw us, she immediately stood up and said with a look of Savior, “thank God, you’re finally here. Please help me to see what to do…”

“What happened? Why did he drink so much?” Eugene asked with a frown.

“I don’t know. Edmund seems to be in a bad mood recently and gets drunk every day. Oarlan sent him back a few times before, but today it seems that Oarlan has gone to deal with something else. The driver sent him back. Give him to me. I really have no choice but to ask you for help.” Myrna took a look at Edmund and asked worriedly, ” Is he suffering from alcoholism? Shall we send him to the hospital directly?”

After listening to Myrna’s words, I looked at Edmund’s face, which was dyed red by alcohol. Although he was asleep, he still frowned and looked very uneasy.

In a bad mood? Why? Is it because of me?

Thinking of this, I felt that I was too sentimental.

“Leanna, what are you thinking about? Say something. What are you going to do?” Myrna asked.

“What?” When I came to my senses, I was first stunned, and then responded, “Oh, I don’t think so. I just drank too much. How about we help him to the bed in the bedroom upstairs?”

“Well…” Myrna looked at Eugene with pleading eyes and said, “Eugene, it seems that I have to trouble you. Leanna and I can’t move him.”

“It doesn’t matter. I’ll help him up.” As Eugene spoke, he walked to the sofa and pulled Edmund up from the sofa unconsciously. With one hand on his shoulder, he supported Edmund to go upstairs.

Myrna saw that he was a little tired, so she helped him support him on the other side.

I went to the kitchen and made some tea to sober up. Then I went upstairs and wrung a towel in the bathroom. As before, I was going to take off Edmund’s shirt and help him wipe his body.

But as soon as I reached out my hand, I suddenly realized that my identity was different from before. I hurriedly withdrew my hand, I handed the hot towel to Myrna: “Belinda, take a towel to wipe his body. I made sober tea downstairs and put it in the electronic stewing pot. It will automatically keep warm when it’s time. He can drink it when he wakes up in the middle of the night and feels thirsty. Besides, pay attention to him when you sleep at night. Don’t let him sleep on his stomach. In order to prevent him from vomiting, prepare a trash can and a glass of water on the bedside table…”

Myrna nodded repeatedly and sighed, “I did find you right. You are a professional in taking care of people. Eugene is so lucky to have you as his wife.”

Hearing this, I only smiled awkwardly. “There’s nothing else here. We’re leaving now.”

“Okay, I see. Leanna, thank you so much. If you and Eugene don’t come over, I really don’t know what to do.” Myrna looked at Eugene with a smile. Then she turned to Eugene and said, “Eugene, thank you. I’ll ask Edmund to treat you two to dinner next time.”

“Okay.” Eugene promised. Then he put his arm around my shoulder and walked out.

“Leanna… Leanna…” suddenly, a low and confused voice came from behind. Although it was not very clear, it was enough for me to understand that it was calling herself.

I suddenly stopped and wanted to look back at the man behind, only to find that Eugene was looking at her me with deep eyes.

No

No, he wasn’t calling me.

I must have misheard

? I said to myself and continued to walk forward.

“Leanna… Leanna…” another low voice came, like the thunder, shaking my heart.

Gritting my teeth, I tried hard to resist the urge to look back at him, and clenched my fists tightly.

Why did you call my name?

I have nothing to do with him, haven’t I?

Why are you in a bad mood?

Why did you drink?

Why do you keep calling my name when you are drunk?

“Leanna, Edmund seemed to be calling you just now.” Myrna said.

I took a deep breath and turned around with a graceful smile. “He probably thought I was his butler.”

“Oh, I see. It seems that Edmund really relies on you. But unfortunately, you are married to Eugene now. Otherwise, I will find you to continue to be the housekeeper.” Myrna said casually.

“The sober up tea will be ready in fifteen minutes. You can go downstairs to have a look now. If it’s ready, bring it up and give it to him. Otherwise, he will have a headache tomorrow morning.” Then I turned to Eugene and said, “let’s go.”

Eugene nodded at me and took my hand to leave.

Edmund’s POV

When I woke up, it was already three o’clock in the morning.

Myrna was sleeping beside me.

When she heard the sound of me turning over, she immediately woke up and opened her sleepy eyes. “Edmund, are you awake?”

I just felt a splitting headache. I rubbed my temples, sat up from the bed and wanted to drink water.

She asked immediately, “are you thirsty?”

“Why are you here?”

“You’re drunk. I’m afraid that something might happen to you, so I’m here with you.” As she spoke, she handed me a glass of cold water, and then stood up. “I’ll go downstairs and bring you the sober up soup. Wait for me for a moment.”

Then she ran downstairs quickly.

Not long after, I saw her come in with a bowl of sober up tea in her hand. I looked at her in surprise. “When did you learn to cook this?”

“I didn’t cook it.” She squinted her eyes and smiled, handing me the sober up tea.

I took the tea and drank it up in one breath. Then I looked up at her and asked, “not you? Then who is it?”

“Have a guess.” She shook her eyebrows mysteriously.

A familiar face flashed through my mind, but I denied it immediately.

No, how could she come here.

“Can’t you guess it? Then let me give you a hint. It’s the person you are talking about in your dreams.” As she spoke, she approached me with a gossipy face.

Dream on?

I vaguely remember what dream I had, but I forgot the specific content of it.

Was it really… Leanna?

In recent nights, I often dreamed of her, but in my dream, she was always like a kite floating in the sky with a broken line. I could only see her, but I couldn’t touch her.

Myrna sighed, “it seems that I’m right. Edmund, you like Miss Leanna, right?”

I didn’t say anything. I just looked at Myrna in surprise. When did she learn to read people’s mind?

“Besides, I can see that Miss Leanna also likes you. But I don’t understand why she married Eugene. What’s going on between you two?” Myrna tilted her head.

“Don’t guess.” I don’t want her to know too much about my relationship with Leanna.

“Is it because you married me that you two…” she frowned.

“Myrna, it’s late now. You should go back to your room.” I interrupted her guess in a low voice.

“Edmund…” she looked at me, blinking her big eyes.

“Go back. Don’t let me say it a third time.” I warned her with a gloomy face.

She walked out of the master bedroom and went to the guest room with a gloomy face.

I got up and went to the bathroom to wash my face with cold water. Gradually, I calmed down.

I walked to the window and opened it. The cold night wind slowly blew away the remaining smell of alcohol in the bedroom, and also made my messy thoughts more confused.

Leanna’s POVC0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Since I met Edmund that night, I couldn’t calm down for a long time.

Because both Myrna and Eugene were present at that time, I couldn’t rush to the bedside to wake up Edmund who was talking in sleep and ask him why he called my name.

It’s like a thorn in my throat. I can’t swallow it or spit it out.

I’ve told myself countless times not to think about it anymore. Our relationship is over, and he declared it in person.

But I couldn’t help thinking of that night.

Two days later, Myrna called her again. This time, she didn’t call with Edmund’s phone, but with her own phone.

I was a little surprised to receive her call, but out of politeness, I greeted her a few times.

When she invited me to teach her cooking at home, I hesitated.

However, Myrna was good at coaxing, and she always had ways to make people unable to refuse . Finally, after asking Mother-in-law, Whitney, and her husband, Eugene, I chose a noon that Edmund would not appear. I brought a lot of food materials and went to the villa again.

Myrna was very happy to see me.

The tea and fruit were served enthusiastically.

We didn’t start cooking until about twelve o’clock.

I’m good at cooking. Although I only know a few home cooked dishes, they taste good.

Therefore, it was not difficult to teach Myrna.

However, she seemed to be studying hard, but she seldom asked questions about cooking, and the topic was always about Edmund.

“Leanna, do you think it will be a surprise for Edmund to eat the food I cook?” In front of the vegetable washing pool, she was washing tomatoes while her face was radiant.

When I was cutting the cucumber, my hand paused for a moment and then blurted out, “he probably won’t let you do it again.”

“Why?” Myrna looked at me in confusion.

The first time I cooked for Edmund came to my mind. “You’re ten fingers away from spring water.

“Leanna, have you cooked for Edmund when you were his butler?” She asked almost as soon as I finished speaking.

“I did it once.” I answered honestly without thinking.

“Oh, I see. No wonder you said that Edmund wouldn’t let me cook next time?” She pretended to ask casually.

I suddenly realized that I seemed to have said something wrong. My heart inexplicably tightened, and the knife in my hand accidentally cut my finger.

“Ouch…” I gasped in pain and frowned. Blood dripped down from my left index finger.

“Oh, you are injured. You are bleeding.” She was also frightened and in a hurry, not knowing what to do.

When we were trying to stop the bleeding, a steady and powerful sound of footsteps suddenly came from behind, accompanied by a low and cold voice. “What are you doing here?”

Hearing the voice, I immediately turned around and saw Edmund standing there with a strong aura in a suit.

“Edmund, you came just in time. Leanna’s hand is injured and bleeding. Come and have a look.” When Myrna saw him, she was like seeing a life-saving straw and immediately asked for help.

I thought Edmund wouldn’t go back to the villa at noon, so I came here at this time. I didn’t expect him to come back. Besides, he saw me cut my finger in a mess. For a moment, I was so embarrassed that I didn’t dare to look at his face.

Edmund took a few steps forward and came to me in an instant.

He raised his hand and grabbed my injured finger tightly. Then he turned to look at Myrna and said, “go to the tool room to get the first aid kit.”

“Tools room? Okay, I’ll be right there.” Upon hearing this, Myrna immediately ran towards the tool room.

There are only the two of us left in the kitchen. The atmosphere suddenly became cold.

the wet and hot temperature came from his palm to my hand. Obviously, I shouldn’t have any daydreaming, but for some reason, I suddenly felt a little dry in my throat and my face began to burn unconsciously.

My fingertips moved slightly. I wanted to avoid this terrible embarrassment and no longer have physical contact with him.

But as soon as my hand shrank slightly, I heard his low voice coming from above my head, “don’t move!”
