Chapter 572: Chapter 572: She Lost Everything
Edie froze for a while and then smiled, "tell me. I can handle it."
Danny sighed, "because of your latest news, Star Entertainment’s manager layer.. is planning to prohibit you. I am sorry to tell you this. I’ve tried the best. But I couldn’t change their decision. The company’s stock price was also influenced..."
Edie planned to put her hands on the bed. But when hearing Danny’s words, she held the fist tightly.
Within one day, she lost her husband. She lost her marriage. She lost her career.
She lost everything.
Edie didn’t say anything. Danny was a little worried about her, "Edie, are you okay. It’s normal. Don’t be too sad. After several years, they would forget that news. You can restart." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Restart? It must be so difficult. As an actress, she had only several years to reach something. Now she had so many scandals. After giving birth to her baby, she would no longer be able to get any chance.
Edie tried to hold her tears back, but she failed. The tears kept falling down.
"Don’t worry, Danny. You don’t have to feel guilty. It is all my fault," Edie lowered her eyes and said in a slight voice.
"Edie..."Danny wanted to continue.
Edie pretended to be relaxed, "Whatever, I’ve perceived a baby. I couldn’t work now. I can take a vacation."
Whatever happened, Danny has taken care of her for so many years. She didn’t want him to worry about her.
Danny wanted to say something, but he finally just sighed, "take care."
After handing up, Edie buried her face in the pillow. She couldn’t control herself anymore. She started crying hard in silence.
Today, she wanted to be fragile again, for the last time.

As time went by, because of Joanna’s silence and L.N’s statement, people gradually forgot the shocking news.
Bette also asked the media to stop transferring those rumors. It seemed everything was becoming better and better.
Except for Edie.
It seemed that she never changed. Just like what she used to be, she would stay with Cecil to watch cartoons. She could laugh. She could play. She could stay in the kitchen to study cooking and then force Cecil to eat whatever she cooked.
But many times, Aaron found Edie split out everything she ate in the bathroom, behind others.
She acted normally in front of her friends, just to hide her wound.
Bette visited her. She looked guilty. It was rarely seen on such a wise woman.
"Edie, I am sorry. I failed to do what I’ve promised to you."
She knew Stuart and Edie already divorced. She was shocked and angry. But she also couldn’t change Stuart’s decision.
Edie pretended to be fine, "what are you talking about? We all know Stuart. No one can change his decision once he made the decision. Perhaps we are bound to separate. No one can change that."
Bette held her hands and said in a heavy voice, "whatever happened, as long as you are willing, I can still be your mother. Whenever you need help, call me."
Edie was touched deeply. She nodded, "thank you, mom."
Perhaps, she didn’t lose everything after ending the marriage. She got relatives, more friends, and many people caring about her.
After Bette left, Aaron suddenly asked her out for dinner. And he refused to take two little boys.
Actually, Edie didn’t want to eat anything. But, after Bette visited her, she suddenly realized there were still a lot of people caring about her. She couldn’t immerse herself in sorrow all the time. She couldn’t let those people caring about her worry about him.
Therefore, she didn’t reject it. She walked out with Aaron.
They arrived at a restaurant. It looked fantastic. But there was no one else in there.
"Have you booked all the seats here tonight?" Edie was a little shocked.
"Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to have dinner peacefully." Aaron irritated her.
Edie knew her scandals. She didn’t dare to say anything more. She sat down.
After getting the menu, she saw most dishes here were her favorite.
She liked most of the dishes here.
She missed those.
"Why are all these dishes, my favorite? You are so considerate." Edie knew Aaron’s kindness. She didn’t want to ruin it. So she tried to forget her trouble and smiled.
"I am smart." Aaron flirted himself. Edie rolled her eyes.
She chose several dishes. They were not spicy. When ordering soup, she hesitated for a while. She didn’t eat soup often. But after marrying Stuart, she ate soup almost every day. It warmed her stomach. And it was nutritious.
But no one can cook better soup. She didn’t want to eat soup made by anyone else.
"I finished. What do you want to eat?" Edie didn’t order any soup.
Aaron took the menu, " I heard they made the best chicken soup here. Do you want to try it? Good for a woman."
"No, I don’t want to eat soup, "she smiled.
"Please. You’ve lost too much weight. You need to take care of your baby. Try to eat some, okay?" ƒrēewebnovel.com
"Well...okay then..." She didn’t insist. She agreed.
Soon, all dishes were served. It was much quicker than she expected as if the cook already knew what she would order in advance.
Aaron poured a bowl of soup for her, "Try it, it must be delicious."
Edie tried it. When tasting the soup, she trembled slightly.
This soup...
Was the same as the soup Stuart made for her.
She tried several dishes. They were all the same as those dishes made by Stuart.
She was so familiar with everything about this man. Why were they assembled?
"Waiter."
She called the waiter excitedly. Her voice was trembling, like her heart.
"Miss, what can I help you?"
"Where’s your cook?" she caught the waiter’s clothes tightly and asked him with expectation.
"In the kitchen. We have only two guests tonight. So only one cook cooked." the waiter answered confusingly.
Edie stood up immediately and ran towards the kitchen. The waiter was shocked. He followed her, "Miss, you are not allowed here."
But he couldn’t stop her.
He wanted to stop Edie, but Aaron stopped him.
He looked at the entrance of the kitchen and sighed, "let her in. She won’t be able to see the man she wanted to see..."
