“No! it’s a…continuation of question two. So maybe like question two point one…?” I tried to explain. I still wanted to ask him another question for my third one.

“I’ve actually told you this before but maybe you don’t remember,” Edward replied. He still wasn’t looking at me.

“Really? Then can you repeat it again? I’m all ears,” I replied as I nudged his leg with my foot lightly to get his attention.

“You should marry me. If I were you, I’d marry me as soon as possible,” Edward replied as he finally turned to face me.

“That’s not a joke, right?” I asked curiously. I mean, I guess he did tell me that before and things didn’t go down so well after that.

Instead of replying to my question, Edward took out his phone and typed a text. What is he doing?

‘Natalia will be staying over at my place tonight. There is no need to worry. The level playing field starts now, brother.’

Edward hit the send button before turning to face Natalia once more as he offered her an innocent smile.
