Chapter 859: Chapter 859: Everything Went Quite Well
"Me, too. I also love you the most," Edie leaned against his chest, feeling the smell on his body. It smelt so good. So warm. He could warm each cell in his body.
"Excuse me. How long have you been married? Long enough, right? Don’t hug here. Please,"
Jason and Scarlet walked towards them slowly. Scarlet’s hands recovered slowly. They came to the hospital frequently for an inspection today.
The doctor told them Scarlet’s hand recovered quite well. She might be able to use it totally.
Everything went quite well.
Hearing their words, Edie immediately flushed. She immediately pushed Stuart away. But she failed. He held her into his arms more tightly,
"But I want to," Stuart said in a calm voice.
That voice...that expression on his face....
Apparently, he wished to tell everyone around how they loved each other.
Looking at Stuart, Edie rolled her eyes helplessly.
"Have you done the recovering process today? How’s it?" Edie asked them.
"Excellent. What about having dinner together? Jason would cook for us." Scarlet sounded so happy.
Hearing these words, Stuart couldn’t help himself frowning. "Jason cooks? No. Let me cook."
Hearing Stuart’s words, Jason’s face changed immediately, "What? No? Fine. I just cook for Scarlet, okay?"
"I don’t care. Let me cook."
Stuart said directly, without any politeness.
"Stuart, don’t look down upon me, okay? Let’s do it together. Then we would see who is better at this." Jason was provoked totally.
"Fine. I am sure I am better."
"Don’t say this so early. We will see in the kitchen."
"Fine. Let’s go."
"Great. Don’t be so proud. I would definitely win."
As two men quarreled with each other, Edie walked together with Scarlet.
Edie said in a helpless voice, "It is just cooking. Why do they have to argue on this?"
"I never expect they are so enthusiastic about cooking. I am so impressed. Apparently, we don’t have to cook for the rest of our life. All we need to do from now on is to enjoy the food."
"Indeed. That sounds great. So leave them to cook. You know what? Actually, Stuart is not good at cooking."
"So is Jason. Every time I eat that food he cooks, I have to try the best to pretend that the food tastes so delicious."
"Yes. Me too. Every time. You can imagine. I always feel embarrassed about this."
As two girls passed through them while talking about them in a loud voice, the two men’s face changed immediately.
Two girls were too straight.
When they parked in the parking lot and entered the stairway, they saw several red big, bold words on the wall.
RETURN THE MONEY, JEFF.
Seeing these words, Scarlet’s face turned pale immediately. But Jason immediately held her hands. She felt the warmth from the palm of Jason.
He walked to Scarlet and held her into his arms, protecting her from any dangers at the most important point.
Scarlet immediately remembered what they’ve been through together. Then, she gradually calmed herself down.
Compared with their love, this was nothing for Scarlet.
While Scarlet accepted treatment in the hospital, Jeff never came to her. Scarlet thought he might really let her go now. She didn’t expect that she still owed others a large amount of money.
Scarlet forced herself to raise the corner of her mouth and said, "I was happy today. I don’t expect this. I am sorry. I might not be able to make time to have dinner with you."
"Why?" frёewebnoѵēl.com
Edie was so shocked. Because she remembered that she had given Jeff one million for him to return the money and get Scarlet’s house back, those people wouldn’t find this place.
What was wrong?
Edie didn’t dare to tell Scarlet. She didn’t want her to feel sad. Therefore, she nodded. "Okay. We would come tomorrow. Take care of yourself."
"Okay. Be careful. Stuart, take care of her."
"I would," Stuart took Edie and left. When she got into the car, she immediately told Stuart, "I gave him the money and asked him to get that house back. Why did this happen?"
"Have you seen that he returned the money? You have no idea what he did with that large amount of money. No one knows," Stuart threw an eye on his little wife and reminded her of this fact.
Hearing his words, Edie froze slightly. Indeed, she didn’t think about this when she gave Jeff that money. But he was Scarlet’s father. Would he do harm to his own daughter?
"But...he is Scarlet’s father."
"Don’t forget. Stanley is also your father." Stuart reminded Edie. But Stanley never really cared about Scarlet.
Stuart lived in an indifferent family. He had been used to this. Everyone cared about nothing but benefit. He didn’t change until he met with Edie.
Hearing his words, Edie fell into silence for a while.
Indeed, Stanley was her father. But he never really cared about her or her mother.
When mentioning those stories, Edie became a little sad. But she felt more sorry for Scarlet.
Edie could understand Scarlet’s feelings. She didn’t know whether she could go through this.
"Silly girl. Don’t worry about them. Every family has its own problem. You don’t have to feel sorry. It is their fate. Just let them handle it, all right?" fгeewebnovёl.com
Stuart fastened the seat belt for Edie and then kissed on her forehead. He didn’t want her to worry about them for a long time.
Edie sighed helplessly and held her big hands tightly, "Thank you for staying with me all these years."
"If so, you might have to thank me forever because I would stay with you forever. I would stay with you this life, next life, next life after next life, and so on."
"You should not be too greedy. Greediness might force you to hell."
"As long as I can stay with you, I don’t care about anything else," Stuart raised the corner of his mouth and said in a gentle voice.
***
Scarlet walked upstairs, step by step. Jason held her all the time. He was worried that this girl might fall down at any moment.
"I would stay with you," Jason said in a calm voice.
"Okay," Scarlet threw an eye on the man aside from her. She had no one else now. She had no choice but to believe the man standing in front of her now.
They slowly moved upstairs. The wall upstairs was also covered with red paint. It looked like red blood dropping down.
Several words were written down on the wall, forcing Scarlet to return the money.
The door was opened. Everything valuable insides the room was crushed as if it was a robbery.
Scarlet saw a piece of note on the tea table.
If you could not return the money, I would cut your father’s body into pieces and threw them into the ocean.
It was two days ago. Today was the third day.
Scarlet was shocked. No matter how asshole Jeff was, he was her father. She couldn’t see his death.
"Jason."
She looked towards Jason nervously. Now she’s puzzled. She didn’t know what to do now. She knew nothing about usurious loan-related kidnap.
