Billionaire’s Mistress

Chapter 15



In the master bedroom, the headlights were not turned on, and a dim night light was on at the head of the bed. The warm orange light came out of the room, making everything in the room dim and ambiguous.

I took a bath, because my luggage was stolen, and Edmund’s nightgown was too big and too long for me, so I had to wrap a large shirt and barely wear it as a nightgown.

Lying on the soft and comfortable big bed, my little heart was nervous and kept jumping.

It’s like going back to the night when I was with him for the first time three years ago.

Edmund went to the bedside, bent down and sat down at the bedside, the mattress sinking under his weight.

He opened the corner of the quilt, lay down slowly, extended his long arm to the switch of the small night light, and pressed it gently, and the light went out.

It was dark all around. My hands held the quilt tightly in the dark, and my heart was full of fear for the man lying beside me.

After he lay down, he turned over slightly, approached me, put his big palm on my waist naturally, and with a little effort, I was caught in his arms.

At this time, I was so nervous that I forgot to breathe. My head was buried in his chest, and what I heard was his strong heartbeat. It was very rhythmic and thumping on my heart.

“Want to suffocate yourself?” His voice came from the top of his head,.

Whew… I took a gentle breath.

I moved my body slightly and wanted to change my position and lie flat, but I just moved. The strength of my arms on my waist was even tighter.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Don’t move.” He warned.

Frightened by his voice, I quickly stopped, and only carefully stuck to his chest, gently breathing.

“Mr. Edmund…” I whispered, my voice trembling.

He said “Hmm”.

“You’ll lend me money, won’t you? If I don’t have a million dollars to pay my father’s gambling debts, those people won’t let him off.” I carefully confirmed the transaction between him and me.

“Don’t worry about money. Go to sleep.” His voice suddenly became gentle, and there was no longer any fierce indifference.

Sleep?

I was stunned for a moment, so I could sleep directly?

Don’t do anything else?

I looked up and wanted to confirm to him whether I was really ready to go to bed, but my head just moved slightly and was pressed down by his big palm. “Move it again and I promise you won’t sleep again.”

I know what he said is not a lie, so I put my head on his chest and didn’t move any more.

By this time, the clock on the wall had pointed to 4:40 in the morning.

The the night has passed like this. I am really tired, and I fell asleep in a few minutes.

When I woke up, the light in the room was still dim, but the man around me had disappeared.

I got up, walked to the French window, opened the thick sunshade curtain, and the sunlight outside the window instantly shone into the room, which hurt my eyes.

I went to the bathroom to wash myself and went downstairs.

Just downstairs, I saw Edmund sitting on the sofa drinking coffee, and opposite him sat a familiar figure who had been absent for a long time.

When I saw that figure, I was stunned for a moment. When the figure turned around, I felt as if I had been nailed to the spot, and my expression was unbelievable.

“Wake up?” Edmund is talking to me.

“Leanna…” When Kerr saw me, he was very excited and got up from the sofa.

Even if I feel weird again. I also know that everything I see now is true.

The middle-aged man with white hair, haggard look and obvious bruises on his face and body is father Kerr.

Just, how could he be here?

“Dad…” I haven’t seen him for many years, and I have become estranged from him. I even hesitated to call him “Dad”.

“Leanna, my lovely daughter, my father did not love you in vain. You can rely on him at the critical moment and know how to save me.”

Listening to his words, I felt a surge in my heart.

In particular, what he said did not love me in vain, but made me feel ridiculous.

Since I can remember, my father is a gambler. When did he love Hannah and me?

However, now is not the time to investigate all this. I restrained my emotions and turned to look at Edmund aside. “Mr. Edmund, thank you for saving my father.”

“You’re welcome.” He smiled faintly and said vaguely, “It’s not in vain.”

When I heard the words, I immediately remembered the transaction between him and me, and my face turned red.

“TLeanna, what relationship do you have with Mr. Edmund? Mr. Edmund is not an outsider.” Kerr was relieved and didn’t forget to teach me a lesson. Finally, he looked at Edmund and said, ” right, Mr. Edmund?”

I really want to dig a hole in the ground at this time. How can I have such a brazen father?

“Uncle is quite right.” Edmund smiled and looked at me more thoughtfully.

I just felt my face was getting hotter. I looked at Kerr and said, “Wait here. I’ll go up and change my clothes. I’ll take you out of here right away.”

“Leave? Why do you want to leave? Where do you want to go when you leave here?” He looked at me with an expression of confusion, as if he didn’t want to leave.

“This is Mr. Edmund’s home. We have caused enough trouble to Mr. Edmund. Do you want to stay here and continue to trouble others?” I am speechless.. He is so cheeky and wants to stay at other people’s homes.

Hearing this, he was a little unhappy. ” Mr. Edmund is not an outsider. What’s the matter? Why are you so eager to drive your father out? Y”

I heard him talk more and more outrageously, especially when Edmund was there, and I immediately felt ashamed, “Dad, what are you talking about?”

“What? Am I wrong? Isn’t Mr. Edmund your boyfriend?” He looked through everything and said, without waiting for me to explain, he turned to look at Edmund again, “Mr. Edmund, tell me, do you want to drive me away?”

“Why?” Edmund smiled, but his eyes were cold. “It’s just that although my place is large, I don’t have servants to serve me. I’m afraid my uncle will not get used to living here.”

“No, no, Leanna is here. She can do housework.”

However, I have no face to stay here any longer. I know that Edmund’s ability to save people so smoothly has been a great boon to me.

What’s more, although Edmund didn’t say it directly, I knew in my heart that no matter where he went, people like Kerr would not be welcomed.

How can Edmund really tolerate such people to live in his own home.

“Mr. Edmund,真的很抱歉,给您添麻烦了,我这就把我爸带走.”我说着,转身上楼去换”Mr. Edmund, I’m really sorry for causing you trouble. I’ll take my father away.” As I said this, I turned and went upstairs to change my clothes.

Edmund’s pov

When her figure disappeared at the stairway entrance, I closed my smile and looked at her with gloomy eyes. I found a treasure in front of me. Kerr, with a happy face, I took a check filled it with a number, and handed it to him. “I don’t know if this money is enough .”

When he saw the check, his face was happy at first, but after hearing what I said, his expression changed again. He drew back his hand, which was stretched out to receive the check, and looked at me with a puzzled face. “What does Mr. Edmund mean?”

“Since you know my relationship with her, you must know that I cherish her very much. If you want to stay here, Leanna will be involved in housework. ” I raised the check in my hand.

“Since ancient times, it is natural for a daughter to respect her father and daughter. What’s the point of doing housework?”

“I don’t know about other people’s homes, but my Edmund woman doesn’t exist to do housework. Are you sure you don’t want this check?” I raised my eyebrows to tear the check.

Seeing this, he quickly stood up and grabbed the check from me. While counting the amount on it, he whispered, “I didn’t say I didn’t want it.”

“Don’t bother her anymore. I’ll let the driver take you away.” I took out my mobile phone and called the driver outside.

“I can go, but it’s only eight million . My daughter’s price is more than that. Mr. Edmund, we’ll see you later.” He carefully put the check away, stood up and walked out with a triumphant face.

Looking at his leaving back, I felt a sneer on my lips.

Leanna, you stupid woman, is this the father you sold yourself to save?

Leanna’s pov

When I put on the clothes I wore yesterday and went downstairs, I found my father was gone. Only Edmund sat on the sofa with a calm face and seemed to be waiting for me.

“Mr. Edmund, where is my father?” I went to the sofa and asked Edmund.

“Gone.” He replied.

“Left? Why did he leave by himself? I told him to wait for me…” I said, and I was going to chase him out.

“Don’t worry. He took a lot of money and left.” Edmund stopped me behind me.

When I heard this, I was stunned, turned around, and looked at him, “Mr. Edmund, what do you mean?”

“Leanna, from today on, you are my man.” He looked at me and said clearly, “Your father sold you to me.”

“Why… why… my father has no right to sell me to you… how can he…” My voice choked, my nose was sore, and my tears burst out without warning.

“He has no rights, so you are still free now. You don’t have to pay me back the money.” He crossed his legs and spoke quietly.

When I heard him, I stopped crying and looked at him incredulously, “What you said… is true?”

“Of course, I don’t mind you paying the debt in other ways.” He stood up and walked up to me. His long, slender fingers lifted my long hair scattered on my shoulders. “For example, at night, in bed…”

My face was hot and red to the root of my neck. I hung my head and rubbed my hands nervously. I didn’t know where to put them.

“Now that you have changed your clothes, let’s go.” He took back his big hand on my shoulder, turned around and walked towards the gate.

I raised my head and stared at him blankly. “To… where?”

“Eat.”

It occurred to me that I hadn’t eaten breakfast at this point.

Edmund took me to a restaurant and ordered a lot of snacks. soon the food on the plate was aten out.

“Full?” He looked up at me.

“Hmm.” I felt embarrassed to receive too many favors from him these two days, so I looked up at him again, took a deep breath, and said, “Mr. Edmund, can you tell me how much my father has taken from you?”

“What?”

I pursed my lips with a little formality, “I will work hard to pay you back the one million you saved my father this time. As for the money my father took from you, although you said I didn’t need to pay back, I understand the truth of paying my father’s debts. When Hannah finishes her studies, our sisters will work together to make money to pay you back, but it may take a little longer.”

“It seems that you like paying back money.” He raised his eyebrows and said coldly, “In this case, by the way, remember the billion you owed me before and pay it back slowly together.”

I suddenly felt that it was unwise for me to say “pay back” in front of him.

“Why don’t you talk?” He looked at me and asked with a sneer.

“Mr. Edmund, you know I can’t afford that one billion in my life…”

Why did he embarrass me like this? What’s more, I never thought that the billion should be my debt.

“So you chose to avoid the importance and pay back what you can, right?” He looked through me at once, “It’s very smart.”

“I didn’t mean that…” I wanted to explain.

“What does that mean?” He asked in reply.

I was silent. Well, actually, that’s what I meant.
