Billionaire’s Mistress

Chapter 14



Edmund’s pov

I can see that today I was completely blamed by her.

Take a deep breath, step on the accelerator and drive to the villa.

The villa is located in the center of the city, next to a small forest par.

On the one hand, the reason why I moved out to live alone instead of living in a mansion is to facilitate travel, and on the other hand, the deeper reason is that my mother Ophelia.

I knew my mother didn’t like me, so I couldn’t help but want to alienate her.

The car went straight into the garage of the villa and I got off. I followed Edmund’s steps and entered the living room. When the light was turned on, I saw that the color inside was mainly gray and white, and the decoration was very simple, full of masculinity. At a glance, it was the house where single men lived.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

He took off his coat and suddenly remembered something. He turned to me and said, “Did you have dinner?”

After his question, I remembered that I hadn’t eaten anything today.

I was going to have dinner in the staff restaurant in the morning, but I was so angry that I didn’t even eat because I heard rumors about myself.

When I got home, I didn’t have the heart to eat because I received my father’s call for help.

In fact, I have been hungry for a long time, but because my spirit has been in a state of high tension and despair, I have no feeling of hungry at all.

Now we have found a place to stay.

I opened my mouth. Before I could answer, I felt hungry.

“Can you cook?”

“Yes.” Nod gently. In fact, I can not only cook, but also cook very well.

On the days when my parents didn’t take care of me, I cooked for Hannah, and we depended on each other. So I was very skilled in basic survival skills.

“There is food in the refrigerator in the kitchen. I have to do it myself. I went up to change my clothes.” He dropped the sentence and went upstairs.

Watching his back leave, I really relaxed.

The hunger was even worse.

Looking around, I found the kitchen, rolled up my sleeves and walked inside.

Edmund’s kitchen is large e, and it is an open kitchen connected with the living room.

Basically, you can fully see the situation in the kitchen in the living room.

After I went in, I first observed in the kitchen and found the position of pots and pans.

The kitchen is very clean, and there is no oil stain. I can imagine that he has never cooked in it.

Open the refrigerator, there are a lot of food in it, but many of them have expired.

It seems that he didn’t enter the kitchen frequently.

Clean out the expired food and throw it into the trash can. I only left a bag of noodles and eggs that I didn’t know if I could hatch chickens.

I used a stainless steel pan to fill the water and then found a frying pan to fry poached eggs.

I don’t know whether it’s my luck or the insurance quality of the refrigerator. The eggs are not bad.

When I fried the eggs, the water had already boiled. After I boiled the noodles, I covered the pot and began to look for a soup bowl to eat noodles.

Open the cupboard below, and there are all new unopened kitchenware and a pile of spices inside.

I had to lock my eyes on the overhead cabinet.

When I opened the cupboard, I saw a pile of plates and bowls neatly placed inside.

Because those bowls were stacked together, and their height had greatly exceeded my height and arm length. I could not get the top bowl even though I stood on tiptoe.

In desperation, I had to move a chair in the restaurant, take off my slippers and step on the chair to get a bowl.

Edmund’s pov

I changed my clothes and went downstairs to see if the little woman was finishing her food. As soon as I got to the living room, I saw her standing on the stool, stretching her neck and hands, looking for something on the overhead cupboard.

Because she was wearing a dress, she was lifting her hands, and the skirt was naturally pulled up. The knee length skirt was immediately lifted to the upper thigh, and the white bottoming and pants inside showed an edge.

I don’t know whether she is too attractive or I haven’t touched a woman for a long time. At this moment, I felt my throat tighten.

Taking a deep breath, I lifted my foot behind her and said in a deep voice, “What are you doing?”

I had just got the soup bowl and was about to take my hands back. I heard someone behind me suddenly, and I was immediately shocked. The whole person fell off the chair and directly hit Edmund. The bowl I took out of the cupboard with all my efforts fell to the ground. The bowl was broken, and both of us fell badly.

I lay on his body directly, with my face pressed against his neck, and the fragrance of a shower gel rushed into my nose.

Maybe it happened too suddenly. I was stunned and didn’t have time to react. I just raised my head and looked at the man under me.

He was also looking at me at this time. His black eyes were as bright as stars, emitting bright light, dazzling people.

“Is it comfortable to lie down like this?” He opened his mouth, and his deep voice broke the deadlock. His good-looking bushy eyebrows gathered together, as if to express dissatisfaction.

“Huh?” I haven’t had time to react.

“Not yet.” He said, propping his hands behind him, and sat up from the ground.

I was lying on him. When he made such a move, I also sat up and rode on his waist with two legs. The posture was more ambiguous than before.

Above, the water on the stove has been boiling and is rolling happily.

I got up from him without forgetting to apologize, “Mr. Edmund, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were behind, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

Finally, after I said a dozen sorry words, he raised his hand to show his forgiveness.

I tidied up my messy hair when I just fell, then hurried to the stove, turned off the fire, and prepared to go to the side to find a broom to clean up the debris on the ground.

“Eat first.” He spoke aside to stop me.

Hearing this, I had to climb up the chair again to get a new bowl.

As a result, my feet climbed onto the chair, and before I could stand firmly, I was suddenly lifted up.

“You want to fall again?” His voice was a little hard.

I blushed violently and pointed in the direction of the cupboard. “But the bowl is there…”

“Stand aside.” He put my body firmly on the ground and stood there. He told me to come forward and take down the bowl easily with his long arm extended.

Their kitchen is really only suitable for tall people like him.

When I got the bowl, I quickly picked up the boiled noodles, put the poached eggs in the pan on it, sprinkled a little sesame oil and seasoning, and stirred it for several times. The smell of food spread out, making me even hungrier.

I took the noodles to the table, looked at Edmund standing beside me quietly and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Edmund, would you like to have some?”

“I’m not hungry.”

“I’ll eat first.” I said, picked up chopsticks and began to eat noodles.

After a while, the noodles were finished.

“Are you full?” He asked.

Nod, I don’t eat too much. If I’m not extremely hungry, I can’t finish this bowl of noodles.

“The guest room is in the second room on the left of the second floor. Go to take a bath and rest, and clean it tomorrow.” He dropped this sentence and turned to the refrigerator beside him to get water.

Although he told me so, I’m sorry to leave this mess here until tomorrow.

After delivering the dishes to the kitchen, I began to wash dishes and clean up again.

When he heard the voice, his eyebrows were slightly clustered, and he looked at me in a twinkling, “Do you want to take a rest?”

My hand paused while I was washing the dishes and whispered, “I… can’t sleep…”

Although my predicament has been temporarily solved, my father is still waiting for me to save him. How can I sleep in this case?

He frowned, “Why can’t you sleep?”

When I saw him ask, an idea suddenly flashed into my mind.

Put down the dishes and chopsticks in my hands, I turned around, walked to him, stretched out my hand to hold his sleeve, and asked excitedly, “Mr. Edmund, can I ask you for a favor?”

He did not respond in a hurry. His eyes slowly moved to my hand holding his sleeve and stopped.

I hurriedly released my hand with an embarrassed face.

“What is it?” He spoke slowly at this time, in a light voice, and could not tell whether he was willing to help or not.

“I… I want to borrow some money from you.” Although it’s hard to say, it’s important to save people. I can’t care about my own face.

His frown was slightly loosened, and his expression was lukewarm. “How much?”

I cautiously put out two hands, “A million… is that OK?”

Seeing that he was silent, I was worried. Afraid of being refused by him, I knelt down on the ground with a “plop”, “Mr. Edmund, I beg you, you must help me, and I will return it to you. I really will.”

He said quietly, “What are you going to give back? If I remember correctly, what you owe me before is hasn’t been paid yet.”

His words made me speechless. Yeah, how could I forget that he asked me to pay back the billions before?

“Or do you think you should not be burdened by too much debt? Since you already owe so much, you might as well owe more?.”

“No, no, I didn’t think about it that way. I asked you to borrow the 500000 for…” I wanted to explain.

He didn’t give me a chance. “I don’t care what you are borrowing money for, I just need to know what ability you have to repay the money.”

At this time, I realized that I was really naive. How could I think that a person who had nothing to do with me would lend me such a large sum of money for no reason?

In particular, he knew that I was unable to pay back the money.

It was because I didn’t understand the situation. I thought I could ask him to pick me up at the station, or I could ask him to lend me some money.

In fact, he has no obligation to do these things at all. It’s kind of him to help me, and there’s nothing wrong with not helping me.

“Would you… buy me?” I hung my head, and my voice was as small as a mosquito. When I said this, my nose became sour and my eyes were full of tears.

“What?” He was stunned.

I don’t want to escape any more. I have to raise money, no matter what the cost.

Looking up, I firmly looked at Edmund in front of me, and my voice was raised a little, “I can sleep with you to pay my debts.”

He looked at me with a slight squint, and there was a kind of light in his deep black eyes that I couldn’t really see.

“Really?” He gently lifted his thin lips and lifted my chin with his long index finger. “That’s a good idea.”

I blinked. There were tears rolling under my long eyelashes, but I tried to keep them from flowing.

Don’t cry, Leanna, you’ve done everything right.

Don’t feel ashamed or humiliated. You are saving your own father.
