Keep you in my arms

Chapter 11 His Threat

Mr. Edward's reason was much better than others and it is rare to see he get emotional, Aaron did not want to miss. He secretly took out his mobile phone and took a picture of it, then he sneered, "it turns out that you are not vulgar, but it depends on who the person is!"

Then, a murderous stare was shot at him. Aaron turned around and intended to leave. "I'm going to send a gift to Hilda. You'd better calm down."

He needed time to calm down indeed

On Sunday morning, the bright sunshine scattered through the curtains on the bed. The whole room was cozy.

After rolling over and stretching, she opened her eyes.

She was driven out the night before last, and she had no place to stay. She was so upset that she couldn't fall asleep. But she had a good sleep last night!

Just as she finished washing her face and brushing her teeth, Hilda came back.

With a weary face, Hilda thumped onto the sofa. "What's wrong?" asked Angela, as she walked up to her

She rubbed her temples, "I had a fight with Helen."

"Because of the necklace?"

"You can say that!" She looked up at Angela and stood up, "she worried that I would be cheated again, so she worked with Danny to set a trap for you and test you. Am I really so stupid to make the judgment? And her behavior is really annoying... "

It was obvious that Hilda was angry.

However

"Haven't you found the necklace?"

"What she did by ask Danny to buy another necklace just for make up for her fault."

That was to say, the necklace was missing. Was she still the leading suspect?

She couldn't help but frown.

Hilda shook her head and said, "Helen is too self-absorbed. She always thinks her own judgment is right and insists that it is you who stole it. I believe in you. I argued with her as I got agitated."

In fact, Hilda had also suspected Angela, but Edward told her that Angela couldn't steal the necklace. So, it must be Helen who insisted on blaming Angela for stealing the necklace and slandering others' reputation. She didn't want a friend like her in bad character!

But after all, they had been friends for seven years. It was a lie to say that she was not sad!

Angela thought for a while and sighed, "ah! No wonder she is so strange. It's the first time I met her and she is so hostile to me. It seems that she's worried about you. "

She could understand the feeling. She had worried about Christa a lot in the past, but she didn't expect that Christa would treat her like this

At the thought of that, the light in her eyes dimmed. Without noticing her facial expression, Hilda asked in surprise, "is that so? Is she worried about me? "

"Yes! I guess she just want to test me because she's afraid you recruit some bad roommates. "

"Well, it makes sense. I met some bad roommates before and seduced my ex-boyfriend."

"That makes sense, but Where is the necklace? "

Angela was deep in thought.

Without noticing the slightest trace of fury on her face, Hilda curiously asked, "aren't you angry? Why does she suspect you so much? "

"What?" She smiled, "I don't know her. It's normal for her to suspect a stranger. Why should I be angry?"

All she wanted now was to get back that necklace!

Noticing that she was lost in thought again, Hilda was in a trance state for a while. The girl in front of her was a little different from what she had met before.

It was the first time that they had met. She was so vigilant and shrewd that she didn't dare to drink the water she gave her.

When she was making the Chicken Curry, she was reading the instructions in the apps and cooking calmly and wisely;

She retorted upon Helen without showing any mercy when she confronted suspicions last night. Like a rose with thorns, she has a very strong sense of self-protection.

Angela looked innocent, but not coquettish. She seemed to have a high IQ and a good Eq. she was really a remarkable woman!

Was that the reason why her brother keep asking things about her in an unusual behavior?

At this moment, Angela's phone rang. It was a strange number, but she still answered.

"Hello? Hello? "

"I have the necklace last night." His voice was so indifferent that Angela couldn't tell what he was thinking. But she recognized it immediately. Although his voice was magnetic, it would always provoke her anger.

"What the hell do you want?" asked Angela in anger

How could he be so shameless to take the necklace and let her be wronged!

"Are you mad at me?" Edward wanted to negotiate with her, but she always lost her temper. How could he negotiate with her?

"Huh! Shouldn't I be angry? Sir, you are so strange. Why do you always make things difficult for me? "

"…" He just guessed that the necklace had dropped in the backyard and been found back. Why was it misunderstood again? Edward was a little annoyed.

Seeing that the he did not speak, she asked again, "what? Did I say anything wrong? I don't think you're in lack of money. Why did you take the necklace. Why didn't you take out the necklace last night when I confronted Helen? Is it fun to make a mystery of it? "

Angela was furious!

Edward's eyes twitched, but he didn't explain that it was afterwards that he found the necklace. However, he knew very well that it was not appropriate to negotiate with her in her current mood. He said indifferently, "let's talk after Miss. Angela stops being angry." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"How do you know my name?" Angela was surprised and when she heard that he was going to hang up the phone, she quickly said, "wait! I'm not angry now. We can talk now! "

Edward could tell from her tone that she was not that angry. He smiled and asked, "what? You don't know yet? Your name must be the talk of people over the past two months after dinner. "

It was said that the CEO of the DC Capital Group only liked men, but he had an affair with a woman last night. How could they let the news go?

She turned to look at Hilda, who had also eavesdropped on the phone from the beginning and heard it clearly.

Feeling her eyes on her, Hilda smiled awkwardly, "all my friends know you."

Of course, Angela didn't know that she was famous because of him and she just thought that others thought she was a thief.

Although she didn't want to have a good reputation, she didn't want to be wronged, so she was very upset!

Edward said coldly on the other end of the line, "I'll wait for you in room 407 of LX House. If you don't show up before 12, I can't guarantee that I will continue to keep it for you."

"Hey! What do you mean? "

He had already hung up the phone. She scratched her hair in a fret and said, "LX House! Who knows where it is and what does it do? "

"There is only one LX House in S City. It's a Hong Kong style tea house. Not far from here." Hilda said as her eyes lit up.

"Really? Really? "

"Yes!" She nodded excitedly, "do you need me to drive you?"

"No, thanks. I can take the subway. You must be tired after playing all night! "

"I'm still young! I'm not tired at all! " All of a sudden, the tiredness between her eyebrows was dispelled.

ah It's rare to see her brother is so interested in a woman and he even intentionally play tricks on her. Even if she is dead, she will resurgence and follow them to see what's going on!

In room 407 of LX House, someone knocked on the door when Edward was tasting shrimp dumplings.

So fast!

He wiped his mouth and said lightly, "come in."

Angela came in, and Hilda followed her with an expectant look on her face.

Edward's face darkened when he saw Hilda.

When Angela was about to sit down opposite him, Edward gave her a hint with his eyes and said, "sit here."

She didn't want to sit so close to him!

Before she refused, he threatened, "The results of our negotiation depends on where are you going to sit."

Hilda was pleased. Her cold brother always avoided women! But now, he threatened her to get close to him?

ah It was so funny!

But she just wanted to get things done as soon as possible and then left, so she went over and sat next to him. As soon as she sat down, Edward leaned over and whispered in her ear.

His warm breath swept over her ear. The ambiguity in the words made her face blush. She was ashamed and angry but dared not say anything. She just glared at him with a round eyeball.
