Oh Please, My Ex-wife
Chapter 89: You call this nothing
"It's nothing," Alice replies plainly.
A deep frown forms between Edward's prominent brows as he hears what she says, he takes a step forward and closes the distance between them. She wants to take a step back but his hand is already touching her face, caressing the wound on her right cheek.
As if he is testing how bad the wound is, he presses against the wound slightly, and she grimaces in pain.
"You call this nothing?" The man sounds a bit unhappy.
Alice isn't saying anything, Edward's face darkens, it's only been a few days and she already gets herself in this much trouble. He initially wants to play hard to get and just neglects her for a bit, just so that she realizes how important she is to him.
At the same time, he is also throwing a tantrum, because lately, she doesn't take much notice of him.
But in the end, she doesn't really care about him even if he leaves her alone.
He is getting angrier just thinking about it.
Yet looking at her all wounded, the anger he feels turns into sympathy.
"Who did this?" His velvet-smooth voice sends shivers down everybody's spines, all of them immediately know that he is crossed and they are done for.
"It was me, so what, Edward. What are you going to do about it, are you going to hit me back?" Edna is annoyed that Edward's attention is all over Alice the moment he gets here.
She is also very offended. Her wonderful daughter is way better than Alice in every way, but for some reason, Edward likes that wench instead.
Edward turns around and looks at Edna and Joanna for the first time as if he just notices that they are there.
Joanna is feeling wronged as Edward ignores her as he walks past just now, but the moment he looks over, she immediately puts on an act, acting all pitiful while saying, "Edward, she started it. Look at us, we are in a much worse state than her."
Edward squints his eyes, Joanna and Edna are indeed more wounded than Alice.
It can only mean that Alice is good at protecting herself, not letting people take advantage of her.
