Infatuated with my Ex-wife

"Of course. Even I am not completely fearless," Edward said, faking the fear in his voice. He was quite amusing.

"Oh, I see. Come on, tell me what animal it is. It'll cheer me up if you do," Irene said. Her curiosity was aroused when Edward said that.

Edward was glad to see that his performance could pique Irene's interest.

Irene's tone was distant whenever she spoke to Edward because of Celine and Eric's evil scheme. He felt quite upset.

"Well... There's this one animal that I am especially afraid of. She's very precious to me, and I'm afraid of making her angry," Edward said with a gentle smile. He was referring to Irene.

"Oh, c'mon! Edward, just say it. Please? It'll make me happy," Irene asked bluntly. She was really curious and wanted to make fun of him.

"Okay. Listen carefully, now. The animal that I'm most afraid of is... you. I don't want to make you angry. Please tell me if I ever upset you accidentally."

Edward proclaimed his love for Irene once more. He looked at her tenderly as he spoke.

"Ahem! It's getting late, Edward. We should wash up and sleep. After all, you still have work tomorrow," Irene said stiffly. She was still stunned by his romantic words.

"Okay. I'll listen to my dearest wife," Edward flattered Irene. He knew she was embarrassed and touched by his words.

He was also aware that he needed to take things slow. As long as he cherished her well, she would come around one day.

Now that both of them had returned to the bedroom, things got a little awkward. Who would wash up first? They weren't as close as they were before, so they couldn't enter the bathroom together.
