Infatuated with my Ex-wife

A short while later, Elio and Edward stared at each other. Both of them suddenly came to terms with each other, for they liked the same woman.

"I'll let it slide this time, Edward. But you must cherish Irene properly. If I see her upset because of you one more time, I'll snatch her away," Elio said seriously.

He knew that Irene liked Edward, so he wanted to support her happiness.

"Don't worry, Elio. I swear on my name that I'll take good care of her. Also, thanks for taking care of Irene on behalf of me," Edward said. He could only express his gratitude right now, but he swore to be there for Irene when she needed him next time.

He promised himself that he'd definitely protect Irene.

Edward and Elio grinned at each other before going back into the ward.

Irene still hadn't woken up when Millicent came to visit her. She felt bad for Elio when she saw him in the ward. It seemed that he still loved Irene.

Wasn't she aware that he loved Irene all this while? So why did her heart ache so badly?

"Millicent, come take a seat. Irene is no longer in danger, but she's in a coma and her body is weak."

Edward was the one who spoke. He was very pleased that Irene could have such a good friend. Millicent must have helped her a lot in the past.

"I see. Did Irene give birth to a girl?" Millicent asked.

She still remembered that Irene had once told her that she would love to have a daughter in the future.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Edward asked curiously. It seemed that Millicent and Irene were good friends.

"Ah, I was just guessing. I didn't think I'd be right though," Millicent said with a gentle smile. It seemed like Irene had gotten what she wished for, and she was happy for her.

Millicent left after sitting in the ward for a few hours. Her heart really ached when she saw how worried and restless Elio was as he watched over Irene.

She couldn't bear to see her beloved so anxious over her best friend, so she took her leave.
