Laura followed Edwin home, embodying the role of a devoted and loving wife.
Edwin guided Laura back to their cozy abode.
His affection for her ran deep, and he insisted she relax on the sofa while he took charge of the cooking duties.
As Laura indulged in watching TV, Edwin emerged from the kitchen, bearing a plate filled with succulent strawberries.
The vibrant red hues of the fruit were truly captivating.
Laura cradled the plate with pure delight.
After savoring a strawberry, she picked another and extended it toward Edwin.
However, Edwin didnât partake in the strawberries.
Instead, he leaned in, tenderly ki*sed her on the Lips, and then wore a gentle smile as he resumed cooking.
A rosy blush painted Lauraâs cheeks.
But her desire to be by his side overcame her shyness.
She trailed after him into the kitchen, strawberries in tow.
Edwin hoisted her onto the kitchen counter.
His rolled-up sleeves revealed a wristwatch worth several million dollars.
In a hushed tone, Laura murmured, âI could always live with my parents, so you wouldnât have to toil so hard.

âAre you feeling sorry for me?â Edwin inquired, his smile warm and inviting.
Laura did indeed harbor a sense of pity for him, but she chose to keep it to herself, engrossed in the task of savoring strawberries from the plate.
Edwinâs gaze remained fixed upon her, a smile gracing his lips.
After a brief silence, Laura suddenly broached a subject that had been weighing on her mind.
âEven if Miss Smith ever approaches me again, I wonât hand you over to her.
â
The corners of Edwinâs lips reached his eyes.
Without a word, Laura hopped down from her perch, nestling against his back as she softly murmured, âHonestly, I do care.
Sheâs so beautiful and accomplished.
At the time, I genuinely believed you were going to marry her.
â
Edwin glanced back at her.
He chose to remain silent.
Sensing that the conversation had run its course, Laura didnât say anything further.
She simply tightened her embrace.
In her own way, she could be a bit childish at times.
Edwinâs voice dropped to a hushed tone as he disclosed, âI might be a bit busy later.
You can find something to occupy yourself with.
If you ever get bored, you could go back to Czanch with my parents.
The Evans Gardon is vast and quite intriguing.
â
But Laura declined the offer.
She yearned to be with Edwin.
Even if he had a demanding schedule, he had to return home each night.
