âEdmund, whatâs wrong? Wendy locked super confused. âDonât you want to clear yourself of all charges?â
*|ââ Edmund gritted his teeth and chose the path with fewer consequences. âI wonât be in jail for too long. If youâre willing to wait for me Iâll be out in a few years, and we can still be together.
âWendy, I donât want you to take that risk. We canât win against Kevan, If you sue him, you will only give him the chance to attack us again.â
Wendy was silent as she âseriouslyâ considered Edmundâs words. Then, she agreed. âAlright, then,â
She rubbed her own stomach and said lovingly. âBaby, be a good baby, hmm? Letâs wait for Daddy to come back together.â
Edmundâs fear was dispelled. âAfter going back, just make up with Larissa,â he advised her. âOnce Iâm in jail she will be the only one who can take care of you. I hope you and the baby can be sale and healthy, I will have something to hope for while Iâm in jail.â
âBut Larissa and Kevan treated you so badly.â Wendy was still pretending to be angry. âThey made sure that my babyâs daddy canât be by their sideâ¦
come see me too.â He smiled knowingly as his eyes narrowed. A âYou can come see me often,â Edmund said. âYou can bring our baby to co revenge plan was already completed in his mind.
ââ¦Fine.â Wendy âforcedâ herself to agree. âBut I need time before I can be friends with Larissa again, Iâm scared that Iâll want to slap her the moment I see her.â
Edmund squeezed Wendyâs hand. âItâs okay to take time, but donât take too long. Youâre pregnant, and Iâm worried when youâre living alone. Itâs best if you can move in with Larissa. She can still take care of you if anything happens.â
âOkay.â Wendy nodded and smiled sweetly. âYour plans are more thorough than mine.â
The moment fifteen minutes was up, the police came in to get Wendy to leave.
Compared to the reluctance from last time, Wendy left decisively this time. Afraid that Edmund would notice. Kevan waited at a staircase that had no people using it Wendy went over and knocked twice on the door, and Kevan came in immediately.
âReady to go?â He asked.
âYup.â Wendyâs expression was calm. It was hard to tell what was the outcome of her talk with Edmund.
Kevan was not curious about their talk though. When they were walking to the elevator, he warned her in a low voice. âI donât care if youâve broken things off with Edmund. As long as you donât hurt Larissa, I will tolerate you.â
Wendy laughed suddenly. âChill Mr. Rogers. I wonât give you the chance to kick me out of your house!â
Kevan was still on guard. âI sure hope so.â
âHey, Mr. Rogers.â After they had gotten into the car and were separated from the public, Wendy leaned over from the back of the car and asked mysteriously. âIâve often seen Aldovian dramas where criminals will get bullied by other criminals when theyâve gone into jail. The prettier ones might even get Do you think Edmund would alsoâ¦â
She blinked. She did not say the rest of her sentence, but Kevan figured out what she meant immediately, âPossibly,â he replied expressionlessly.
Objectively speaking, Edmund was quite handsome, and his aura was softer than that of the average man. In a place like the prison which was filled with manly men, he would totally stand out.
Wendy laughed gleefully. âThat would be for the best Fucking plece of shill Heâs already at the end of the road, and heâs trying to fucking manipulate meâusing me to raise his kid and take revenge on his behall He really thinks Iâm stupid or some shit?
Kevan glanced at her through the rearview mirror silently. When he saw how happy she was, he suddenly felt that Wendy and Larissa were quite similar to each other on a certain level. When it came to men they did not love anymore, they were both equally cruel and ruthless.
