My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"Edward, I promise you. No matter what happens in the future, I'll choose you over everything. I'll wait for your explanation, and I'll believe you. But I have only one condition. I'll keep my promise only when I know that Justin is safe and sound. Would you do that for me?"

Murmured Daisy while gently touching Edward's handsome face. Only God knew how many times she wanted to tell him honestly how much she loved him. But she couldn't until she knew that he felt the same way for her. She'd rather die than know that he wouldn't fall for her.

Edward smiled tenderly, and Daisy froze. She couldn't think nor move. His smile was like a spring breeze that swept over her skin. She quivered unconsciously and leaned forward to press her rosy lips against his. She was unable to resist his charm.

She missed him so much. And she had been waiting for this kiss for a long time. All she wanted now was to drown in that kiss. At least he was hers for now. His smile, his gentleness, his kiss and he himself belonged to her now. Why should she run away when she could indulge herself?

Daisy flung her arms around his neck to deepen the kiss. He always seemed distant and elusive to her. She had worshiped him for decades. He was the love of her life, the hope that sustained her. She was a survivor because of her love for him. She couldn't bear losing him again. She had decided that she would never let go of him.

It wouldn't hurt so much if she didn't know what it felt like to be loved by him. And she wouldn't be so desperate if he didn't give her any hope.

Edward was surprised by her sudden move. Her lips were trembling slightly, and so was her whole body. She was warm and tender in his arms. He could feel her intense passion for him. Was that love? He had no idea. He could only hold her tighter and kiss her back. Whatever she had in mind, he just wanted to feel every bit of her.

As a result, they were late in reaching the restaurant. Edward grabbed Daisy's shoulder and gave a tacit smile as an answer to the inquisitive looks from the other

im what exactly did she want him to do. What if she asked him to do something illegal?

"I really don't think so. Haven't you heard the advertisement say 'Scoot over, and everything gets better'?" Leena was stuttering. She would say or do anything so long as Justin was willing to help her.

"Nonsense! It's 'Wash over, and everything gets better.' I'm sure you know that." Justin rolled his eyes at Leena. She seemed so adorable and lovely, but how could she be so evil in nature?

"Well, well. Whatever it is. As long as it makes sense." She hardly watched television. How was she supposed to know the specifics of the advertisement? Besides, she had been abroad for years, and she just returned. She had more important things to do than memorizing advertisement lines. Helping her brother to marry Belinda was now the priority on her agenda. Everything seemed meaningless to her until Belinda became her sister-in-law officially.

"Alright, alright. Both of you. Here's the menu. What do you want? Order anything you like." Edward got exasperated by the childish quarrel between Leena and his son. He hurried to hand over the menu to interrupt them.

"Whatever you like. We can eat anything. But Edward, don't forget to order drinks for me." Leena paused and squinted at Justin with a wicked smile. She didn't even give Justin the chance to order his favorite dish.
