Infatuated with my Ex-wife

Meanwhile, Edward went to meet Eric at the address he had given him. However, Eric wasn't there.

"What are you doing here, Celine? I'm supposed to meet Eric, not you," Edward said, feigning his surprise as though he wasn't aware they had schemed together.

Edward knew that he needed to put on an act. He pretended to be angry and wanted to take his leave as soon as he finished speaking.

"Edward, I know you must hate me right now. I lied to you because I had no choice—you'll never agree to meet up if you knew it was me. That's why I asked Eric to contact you."

Celine continued to behave pitifully as she reached out for his sleeve, trying to stop him from leaving.

Edward moved away to avoid her grasp in disgust. "I might've considered giving you a few minutes of my time if you had asked me nicely, Celine. However, with you behaving like this, I don't think I will."

He watched as Celine paused and retracted her hand awkwardly. "What a great actress you are, Celine," Edward sneered silently.

"Tell me, what do you want? My time is precious and I don't want to waste it on you," Edward huffed impatiently.

Just this once, he would play along with their devious plan. He was sure that Eric was keeping an eye on them nearby, watching their every move.

"Um, I've suddenly came to the realisation that love isn't something that can be forced. Edward, I want to apologise for hurting both you and Irene with my ignorant actions."

When Celine saw Edward's impatient expression morph into a serious one, she praised her acting skills. She felt that she should be nominated as the best leading actress.

Celine was sure that her acting skills were far superior to the other actresses who had won the awards.

"Okay, anything else? Or was that all you wanted to tell me? Am I free to leave now?"
