Dumping 19

Chapter 19

Sharon glanced at the sky, it wasn’t raining. “No, thanks,” she refused promptly.

Edwin’s already sour expression turned even grimmer. “It’s hard to hail a cab here. You really want the kid to get chilled by

y the wind with you?”

Sharon had driven there, so getting chilled wasn’t the issue. But it wasnt safe just to let Irene sleep loosely in the car seat. Considering this, she finally paused and followed Edwin to his car

Noticing the wound on his hand, Sharon stopped him as he was about to open the driver’s door. “Maybe I should drives you just take care of Irene in the back

“You know how to drive?” Edwin looked surprised.

She had been part of the Stanley family for four years, and Edwin didn’t even know she could drive. It spoke volumes about his neglect of her. Without saying much, Sharon just nodded and took the keys from his hand.

Edwin didn’t press further and settled into the back seat. When Sh

Sharon handed over the child to him, he looked utterly at a loss

“Just support the child’s head, Sharon said, adjusting his arm to rest the child’s little head against his chest.

Edwin froze, daring not to move. He looked down at the child’s rosy checks against his chest and her fine, fluffy hair, and a touch of tenderness crossed his heart.

Sharon said nothing more, got in the car, and started the car smoothly.

Not wanting Edwin to know where she lived, she drove to where it was easy to catch a cab and stopped. “We’re here. Thank you, Mr. Stanley She then took Irene from his arms and left.

I will make up for what I owe Irene, but my daugh

daughter doesn’t need someone else to be her father.

“Sharon!” Edwin called after her from behind. “1 » That’s my bottom line.

“Well, Mr. Stanley, I’m curious how you plan to make it up to Irene. Sharon stopped, looking at him with a half–smile

“I’ll have the divorce canceled tomorrow. You’ll move back with the Stanley family, and I’ll try to spend more time with Irene,” Edwin said,

“Cancel the divorce?” Sharon was genuinely surprised by his words. “Will Ms. Gill agree to this decision?”

“Why does she need to agree?” Edwin said. He would get pretty impatient every time he had to deal with Sharon.

“You’re engaged to her. It’s a basic respect for your fiancee, isn’t it?” Sharon replied.

“Engaged?” Edwin was caught off guard, but he didn’t explain and simply said, “Just do as I say. You don’t have to worry about the rest.”

Sharon was used to Edwin’s cold attitude and didn’t get mad, just tilting her head. “Then let me ask you something I’m more concerned about, Mr. Stanley. Are you canceling our divorce because you love me?

Sharon burst into laughter. “Mr. Stanley, do you really think having both parents is the best deal for a child? You haven’t experienced growing up in a single–parent family. How do you know it’s not good 1 grew up without a mother, but I never felt unhappy. My father gave me all his love and only ever asked for my luppiness,” she said.

“Yei, we were married for four years, and frene is three now. Go and ask her if she’s been happy these years. She’s afraid that trouble will come my way if any of you at the Stanley family are unhappy, and to keep you all pleased, she’s forced herself to be sensible and even give up dancing, which she loves most. You really want her to keep living in such a repressive environment, huh? Are you trying to drive her insane? Sluron choked up as she spoke.

“All that can be changed” Edwin didn’t see it as a big deal.

“And what if it changes! You don’t love me. What will frene think when she grows up? She’ll feel that she is the reason we’re together and that she’s

to blame,” Sharon said.

Edwin fell silent. Until Sharon told him this, he thought this was the best way to

“Mr. Stanley, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Irene Carrying Irene so long made her arms sore. Sharon nodded toward him and walked away

Edwin didn’t go home but went to Tilda’s place instead.

Chapter 19

When Tilda saw Edwin, her eyes sparkled with excitement. “Edwin, you’re here. Come

Edwin didn’t move, he just showed his phone to her. “Delete this photo from Twitter as soon as possible”

Tilda looked down and saw the tweet suggesting they were going to engage. Tm sorry, Edwin. I just thought of our past days and posted it impulsively,” she explained and examined Edwin’s reaction “Actually, it’s Sharon’s fault. If she hadn’t blurted out things and made me embarrassed back then, we wouldn’t have broken up.

“Don’t drag Sharon into this,” Edwin reminded her coldly. He didn’t want to hear that name again tonight. “Besides, we ended things four years ago We are just friends now,” With that, he turned and left.

but just

Behind him, Tilda gripped her fingers tightly, her pretty face twisted with anger. Since she came back, she never brought up reconciling but, subtly played it coy with Edwin, waiting for things to naturally fall into place. I thought Edwin had the same idea. However, he’s now stating boundaries between us. Is it because of Sharon? she pondered as her phone suddenly rang.

Annoyed, Tilda answered anyway.

A leisurely voice came from the other end. “Do you know the interesting thing I just heard: The high and mighty Edwin has proposed to cancel the divorce with his ex–wife. Considering our past, I thought Id give you a heads–up. Don’t lose your Mr. Right again this time.”
