Chapter 595: Chapter 595: Be Honest
From then on, Stuart and Edie lived a peaceful life, eating, sleeping, and reading...
When Edie quarreled with him, she won.
When Edie punished him, she won.
When Edie abused Stuart, she won.
Stuart loved Edie deeply. They were immersed in such peaceful happiness.
Such happiness, like vinegar, could soften the hardest bone as the time went by.
As days went by, Stuart could finally walkout. The wound also recovered.
Looking at those wounds crossing on his back, Edie burst into tears. She touched his back with her trembling hands, feeling his skin.
"Did it hurt?" she sobbed.
"If you are frightened, don’t look at it. I am fine, don’t worry." Stuart didn’t know how to comfort her at this moment.
He didn’t want her to look. But Edie insisted it.
David laughed, "It is really a miracle, thanks to your strong will to survive. Otherwise, you would fail. All right, I am done. Keep on."
After the doctor left, Stuart dragged Edie into his arms and comforted, "Don’t worry, they were all passed. I am recovered now. Totally fine now. Stop crying, baby."
"Why...why didn’t you tell me at that time?" Edie wanted to ask this question for a long time. But she always held it back because she didn’t want to recall those things.
But now, she could no longer control it.
"If you know it was me, you might really hurt our baby and yourself." Stuart laughed slightly.
Edie cried harder.
If she knew it was Stuart at that time, she might break down immediately. She might lose her baby.
But.....if she knew earlier, she wouldn’t complain to him. He didn’t have to accept her complaint and hatred.
"Don’t you worry that you might lose me forever?" Edie’s voice was trembling. Her eyes were covered with tears. The man’s image became ambiguous.
Stuart wiped her tears away with his big hands gently.
Then he smiled,
"Are you afraid of losing the whole world?"
"Yes, very." she kept sobbing in silence.
"Me, too. I am scared. You are my whole world. And my world is shaking. My world is breaking apart. I am worrying every second, day, and night. I am suffering every day from such thoughts. But I want you to be fine, to be safe. So I have to do this. I hate my weakness. I hate that I am not strong enough to protect you in a better way. But, when I see you are happy, I am really happy, even though it was not because of me."
He said in a slow and flat voice. Edie couldn’t hear any emotion from his statement.
Stuart never said lovers’ prattle.
"Actually, I am really sad those days. Really really sad. I thought you really forgot me. You wouldn’t care about me anymore. I kept thinking about ways to make you remember me. I even thought about making a traffic accident again. When I was informed that you faked all these, I really wanted to punch you and broke up with you. You are not dumping me. I am dumping you. But....when I see you again, I realized I would never want to do that. All those words were bullshit at the moment when I saw you. They were none of your business."
Edie said in a slight voice. She told Stuart what she really wanted to say.
In fact, ...
She did complain and hated him once. But compared with her love for him, those were nothing.
As long as Stuart was alive and still loved her, she wouldn’t care about anything that happened before, including all those pain and suffering.
Edie took a deep breath and surrounded his neck, "you know? I really thought about giving up and leaving. I thought about leaving my hometown and going to a place where I could live a peaceful life with my baby.... would you regret it if I really did so?" frёeωebɳovel.com
Stuart fell into silence for a while and said, "I would find you back."
So you didn’t regret it.
Edie beat his breast slightly. Because Stuart just recovered, she didn’t dare to apply much force.
"Asshole. You don’t care about how I was sad."
Stuart held her into his arms and put his jaw on her forehead, "It is impossible that I don’t care. When seeing you are sad, I wish I could rip my heart out to show you. When I see you crying, I want to kill myself to apologize to you. Edie, nothing is more important than you."
Edie stopped struggling. She felt sweet and sour at the same time. She fell into his arms peacefully,
"Why don’t you tell me the truth in the first place? I can help you. Why did you choose to lie to me?" Edie sounded wronged.
"The mole is inside the group, in a high position. He was closely related to the Yates. He knew lots of secrets from Yates. I didn’t know how many men he had assigned around me. But I was sure that he was targeting you, that was why he sent Hicks back to England. Therefore, I turned to advantage his plot and used Hicks to seduce that mole out."
"The only thing worrying me was you. Based on our original plan, after we divorced, William would take you away, to a place no one could find you, and then take you back when I handled everything." Stuart sounded a little helpless, "But I didn’t expect that you are such a stubborn girl that you always refused to divorce me..."
Edie blinked his eyes. Was he blaming her that she got in his way to conduct his plan?
Edie wouldn’t acknowledge that. Instead, she stood up from Stuart’s arms and poked his breast.
"You dare to say these? You told me that you lost memory so that you could date with Hicks. Be honest. Was there anything happening between you and her?"
Stuart answered immediately, "Absolutely not. When I met with her, I always had to try the best to hide my disgust. It is impossible for us to have something. I didn’t even touch her when we went out."
Though Edie believed what Stuart said, she still felt uncomfortable.
"You don’t have to explain it to me. I am nobody for you, "Edie stood up suddenly and walked towards the door, "I need to cut some fruit now."
Stuart’s face turned bad. He started frowning. Seeing the expression on his face, Edie couldn’t help herself bursting into laughter.
Looking at her back, he came up with an idea.
When he got out of the hospital, the first thing to do was to register their marriage again in A.
