Chapter 137 I’ll Make You Suffer Edmond, who was standing next to them, tried to pretend he couldn’t see, but the sight of their embrace was truly blinding to him. “Did you all act as if I didn’t exist?” Edmond spoke, his deliberately lowered voice tinged with a hint of anger. Edmond’s voice was like a bucket of water, which made Claudia shiver all over. She forcefully pushed Pedro away and took a few deep breaths before saying, “Pedro, I will talk to you about our matter later. Right now, I have something to discuss with Edmond.” After saying that, she looked at Edmond, her thin lips slightly pulled, and said lightly, “Let’s go.” Pedro tightly bit his lip, his fingers clenched, and due to the force, his knuckles had turned slightly white. Seeing him like this, Claudia let out a soft sigh and gently said, “I didn’t blame you.” I didn’t blame him. Because of this sentence, Pedro suddenly relaxed all over his body and said in a h oa rse voice, “Then I’ll wait for you.” Watching the two of them, Edmond’s jawline tightened more and more as he witnessed their lingering and affectionate behavior. The anger in his heart burned hotter and hotter. He repeatedly tried to convince himself that she had already divorced 0.00% 12:05 him, but no matter how hard he tried, he would still lose control when he saw other men treating her like that. Everett was right, he was going crazy. Does he really have to become her backup plan? His gaze lightly glanced over her abdomen, his eyes gradually deepening. Happy to be a father? Absolutely impossible!
Edmond’s thin lips emitted a cold breath of indifference. · Claudia dared not look at his expression and quickly walked away. When they were out of the hospital, Claudia faced him and said, “Just say whatever you have to say here, keep it short.” Watching her look a little anxious, Edmond sneered, “So impatient, afraid Pedro has been waiting for a long time?” Claudia frowned, “That was my business.”
She wanted to say more, but when she saw Edmond’s stern face, her lips moved and she swallowed her doubts. In that instant just now, she actually felt Edmond’s jealousy? To confirm her thoughts, she asked thoughtfully, “Are you angry?” Edmond frowned and was about to deny it, but she asked again, “If I’m not mistaken, are you jealous?” Edmond was taken aback. Claudia’s lips curled up in a triumphant manner, as if she had 1497% discovered a new continent. Suddenly, she had a teasing thought and said, “Edmond, after three years of marriage, you haven’t fallen in love with me, have you?” Edmond stared at her for a moment, his face showing no signs of any emotions. Claudia’s heart sk ipped a beat. Edmond sneered and turned his face away, “Stop being so self- absorbed.” The trailing sound gradually faded away. Claudia playfully smiled, her eyes slightly curved, like a charming and alluring little cat. “Actually, when it comes to emotions, most of the time we realize it later. If you like me, just say it directly. When Pedro hugged me just now, your face looked as if your wife had cheated on you. And a few days ago, you risked your life to save me. It’s hard for people not to think too much about it. Her voice was soft and smooth, like a feather, stirring his heartstrings. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Edmond looked at the woman in front of him who was deliberately teasing him. With a slight movement, he gently pinched her chin. “And what about you… Did you marry me in the first place because you liked me?” “Being a hidden wife for three years, willingly guarding the empty house, it is difficult for me not to think too much.” His fingertips were a little rough as he caressed her chin, making her body heat up. Claudia quickly lowered her eyes, turned her chin away, and avoided his touch. “At that time, I was working at your company when you proposed to me. I didn’t dare to refuse as I needed the job at the Lamont Group,” Claudia lied without changing her expression. “I can’t say I liked it, but I didn’t dislike it either.” “Do you need this job?” Edmond sneered. “Since high school, you haven’t applied for any financial aid. Your grandmother’s annual income couldn’t even cover half of your tuition for one semester. If you don’t apply for financial aid, where will the tuition come from?” “You never lacked money, let alone a job at the Lamont Group,” Edmond’s voice was faint but cold. Claudia’s heart sank heavily. She did not lack money indeed, and she married Edmond because she was in love at that time and wanted to have a good relationship. But she couldn’t talk about her identity. “Yes, I wasn’t short of money,” Claudia sighed with a bitter smile, “because I liked you.” “When I married you, I really wanted to be with you.” She even considered cutting ties with Enigma in order to fulfill her role as a secret wife. She was afraid that if she contacted Enigma, she would be discovered by Edmond and then be kicked out of the Lamont family. She knew that at that time, Edmond only wanted a normal and simple wife, not the heiress of Enigma. “Do you like me?” Edmond smirked, a hint of amusement in his eyes. “Do you really think I would believe that?” Claudia’s beautiful eyes widened, her face turned red with embarrassment.
She slowly lowered her head, her voice choked with a hint of brokenness, “Believe it or not, it doesn’t matter. We are divorced, everything is over.’ “No, it’s not over yet,” Edmond stared at him coldly, icy and merciless, as if he wanted to tear her body apart. “If I find out that you married me for any other purpose, I will make you suffer.” Claudia’s heart trembled fiercely. Suddenly, her chest felt as if it was being entangled by something, making it difficult for her to breathe! She wanted to say something else, but Edmond had already turned and left. As Claudia watched his retreating figure, her nose tingled with a hint of sadness. She knew that he hated it the most when someone lied to him. They had been married for three years, and in fact, he had always been very good to her, including her job, he had always taken care of her. She was the one who first broke the agreement and fell in love with him. Thinking of his words “I will make you suffer”, Claudia’s heart raced for a moment. Did he discover something? She stood in place, not knowing how long had passed, when Pedro walked over. Seeing her with red eyes and a sad expression, my eyes also turned red. “Can’t you still let go of him?” Claudia smiled bitterly and whispered, “Do you think he will notice anything?” “According to your original plan, you should have divorced him in the second year of your marriage,” Pedro paused, letting out a slight sigh. Yeah, it was all because of her greed. Rosalie dragged on this marriage for three years, clinging to the little warmth Edmond had given her. It wasn’t until her grandmother passed away and she returned that she finally proposed a divorce. Maybe if Grandma had divorced Edmond earlier, she wouldn’t have died. Claudia wanted to laugh, but she couldn’t laugh no matter how hard she tried. As she continued to smile, her eyes became blurry. Pedro saw her like this, and his heart was instantly torn apart.
His heart was tightly clenched by something, instantly shrinking into a ball, suffering in the midst of ice and fire. “If only… you hadn’t married him back then.” However, he knew that at that time, the situation was completely beyond his control to prevent or make decisions. In that situation, she could only marry Edmond. Pedro’s beautiful eyes shimmered slightly, and his voice carried a hint of coldness: “Actually, as long as you don’t care about him, he can’t hurt you.” Yeah, as long as she didn’t care about Edmond, it didn’t matter to her whether Edmond hated or disliked her. What about her? Can she really remain indifferent? Her palm rested on her abdomen, and a warmth spread from her abdomen to the palm of her hand. This belly, it was also the bond between her and Edmond… A Maybach drove past on the road beside. In the car, the assistant glanced at Edmond in the rearview mirror and hesitated, saying, “Mr. Lamont, Pedro doesn’t look like a good person.” Will there really be no problem if we just let them be alone like this?
