Chapter 82
Edward hummed in agreement to Nelissa and unlocked the door with a click. There was only one umbrella in the car, and four people were not enough. Edward asked Nelissa to wait for him not to get out of the car.
He opened the door, opened the umbrella, and got out of the car with his long legs. He opened the door of the back seat first and led Nathan to get out of the car one by one. He was tall and suitable for holding an umbrella, so he didn’t let Nelissa’s son get wet. Instead, he led Nathan to the apartment building first and let them wait for Nathan.
Then it was Noelle. Edward picked up the little girl directly. She was as delicate as her mother. For this reason, Edward took good care of Noelle very much.
Noelle screamed. She didn’t like rain before, but now she suddenly fell in love with it. She looked at Edward with admiration. “Uncle, you’re so tall and strong. I can’t even hold you when it’s raining.”
Edward raised his thin lips. Nelissa’s slender arms were so weak that they were almost negligible. She could only be pressed down by him every time. It was really difficult for her to hold her daughter in the rain.
Putting down Noelle, Edward said to her and her for Nathan, “Wait.”
Noelle nodded in unison for Nathan. She watched Edward walk in the rain to pick up his mother. He was so tall that he seemed to be able to hold up a heavy rain. Even his back was beautiful.
“Brother, he is so cool!” Edward was completely in line with the image of a father in Noelle’s mind. He was tall, mighty, and beautiful.
“I will be as tall as him in the future.” The Nathan-old man’s spirit made him admire Edward a little. He had to become as powerful as his uncle in order to protect his mother.
In the car, Nelissa was staring at the dark front. Edward was holding an umbrella and walking toward her against the heavy rain.
For a moment, Nelissa was moved to the extreme. Watching Edward send his son and daughter in, she knew that Edward would be a good father.
Edward opened the door, and the noisy rain drowned Nelissa’s heart. The heavy rain didn’t leave a drop of rain, but was blocked by Edward’s tall body.
“Get out of the car.” Edward held the umbrella for Nelissa, closed the door, and locked it.
Nelissa looked up and saw a piece of Edward’s shoulder. The rain dripped down along the edge of the umbrella and fainted on his light-colored suit.
Nelissa couldn’t help taking a step closer to him. She raised her fair little hand and gently grabbed his big hand holding the umbrella. She adjusted the umbrella to his side and said, “Don’t be so attentive.”
Edward lowered his head and smiled. He stared at Nelissa. “Not willing?”
Nelissa’s heart palpitated and she didn’t say anything.
Edward held her little hand, and his slender fingers held her fingers tightly in his palm. He led her home without any hindrance.
Looking at Edward’s perfect profile, Nelissa’s heart was in a mess. Noelle had been waiting for them under the apartment building for Nathan, just like they and other families. They were just ordinary four families.
Nelissa smiled unconsciously.
Edward caught Nelissa’s smile. He tightened his grip on her and his heart rippled.
When they got home.
Nelissa first went to the bathroom to wash a clean towel and wiped Edward’s body. Except for being drenched in the rain, she and Noelle had been fine for Nathan.
His daughter, Noelle, was going to take a bath and love to be clean. Nelissa took her into the bathroom to help her take a bath and asked her to pour water for Nathan to greet Edward. His son was very sensible and knew how to treat the guests, but he still needed to see if he liked this guest or not. Otherwise, he would not do it well.
Nelissa could tell that her son’s affection for Edward could be due to the intimacy between them.
Edward took off his wet suit jacket and put it on the side of the sofa. He loosened his tie with his slender fingers and sat on the sofa. Listening to the sound of Nelissa bathing her daughter in the bathroom, he felt relaxed and lazy.
After Nathan of pouring him a glass of water, he took out the fruit bought by his mother last night in the refrigerator, put it on the tea table, and greeted Edward.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
The father and son were very quiet in the living room, waiting for two women.
Edward finished a glass of water and poured another cup for him in Nathan. His sister liked this uncle and he liked him.
“Little demon, let me ask you a question.” Edward’s slender hand tapped on the seat next to him, letting him sit down for Nathan. “Do you still need Nelissa to help you with your bath?”
For the first time in Nathan, he heard a man call his mother by her nickname, but he didn’t hate it. He raised his head and proudly said, “Of course not. I can take a shower by myself.”
Edward was slightly satisfied and asked him again, “What about going to the toilet? Do you only pee when Nelissa hugged you?”
Xiao Jun, who had been in the mall for Nathan, blushed. He had been carried into the women’s restroom by his mother to pee. He had a strong personality in the past Nathan and was a little proud. “I can go to the toilet by myself now.”
Edward nodded, but he didn’t say anything. Noelle was a little girl, and Nathan was a boy and a child of Zayden. Edward felt that this little guy had always taken advantage of Nelissa. “When will I sleep at night without Nelissa to coax you?”
Nathan was no fool. The child’s possessiveness was also very heavy. “No, this can’t do. Nelissa is good at telling stories.”
Edward didn’t know the content of the story, but he liked Nelissa’s voice. Especially when she was moaning, she always made him lose control and ask for her. He wanted to hear her say more nice words to satisfy him.
The father and son chatted and turned on the TV. In the past Nathan, they had been watching a car show that he liked. From time to time, they would ask Edward. If he didn’t understand, Edward could answer him. But his mother couldn’t answer these questions, and she was not interested in cars.
After Nathan, he felt that Edward was very powerful and admired this uncle more and more.
After taking a shower for Noelle, Nelissa saw that Edward got along quite well with the father and son from Nathan ago. She breathed a sigh of relief and was quite happy.
“It’s been Nathan. Go take a shower. I’m going to cook now. You wait and see.” Nelissa took a blue band, tied her long hair, and told her son.
“Okay.” After Nathan, he raised his little chin and looked at Edward to let his uncle know that he really knew how to take a shower. But his uncle kept looking at his mother, as if he was following his mother’s long ponytail.
Nathan later, she went to the room to get a set of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Nelissa was cooking in the kitchen, and Noelle told Edward in the living room outside, “Mom cooks very well. Uncle, if you want to pursue my mom, I have faith in you.”
Edward raised his eyebrows. “You have a much better taste than your mother.”
Noelle smiled innocently and liked to be praised by the handsome uncle.
Edward got up and walked to the kitchen. He leaned against the door and focused on Nelissa. For the first time, he saw her black hair tied up, revealing her palm-sized fair little face and delicate neck. Seeing her wearing an apron and cutting vegetables in the small kitchen, he felt that she was more beautiful than anything else. He couldn’t move his eyes away and felt very comfortable.
Nelissa cut the ingredients one by one and turned to look at Edward’er. “What are you looking at?”
“Look at you.” Edward’s voice was low and hoarse, as if he was teasing her. His thin lips were raised.
Nelissa glared at him angrily and stopped arguing with him. “Hurry up and cook. I’m afraid Noelle has been hungry for Nathan. Fire, hot oil, stir-fried in the pot, and then start cooking. These dishes are very familiar and cooked smoothly. Every night, they will be cooked for Noelle for Nathan. The food in the restaurant outside has no nutrition, and it’s expensive.”
Edward had been watching at the door of the kitchen. The weather was hot, and there was no air conditioner in the kitchen. Her face was red with heat, and she was very efficient. She cooked dishes and took a bath for Nathan.
There were five dishes and one soup on the small four table. Nelissa whispered in her heart,
After all, she had eaten with her father and daughter. She was not a cruel sinner.
Nelissa was used to serving Noelle with food for Nathan. They could not leave any nourishing food for her. Edward handed her the rice bowl and raised his eyebrows. Obviously, he wanted her to serve him.
Nelissa knew that Edward was a man who would not be polite to her, so she did not expect him to know how to be reserved. She scooped him a spoonful of tender tofu with a spoon.
She still remembered what he liked to eat.
After the meal, it was Nelissa who washed the dishes. It seemed that Noelle was very fond of pestering Edward for Nathan. She secretly wanted to give the two children a chance to get along with her father, so she didn’t care. However, what surprised her was that Edward was very patient. At least, he didn’t show obvious impatience and treated Noelle very well.
After washing the bowl, Nelissa looked out of the balcony. It was raining heavily, and even the lights of the residential area in the distance became blurred. She did not know when the rain would stop.
Hearing the news, Nelissa went over to have a look. Noelle usually didn’t watch the news in Nathan. It must be Edward.
The news said that there would be a typhoon in Haleston City this afternoon, but the typhoon was just passing by the Southern Lake area. It would not affect too long, and it was estimated that it would leave tomorrow.
Nelissa was worried. There were only two bedrooms and one living room in her small apartment. She had no place to stay with Edward, or let him stay in Jolene’s apartment? It was not good. Why not go to Jolene’s apartment and let Edward sleep in her bed? It was okay.
Nelissa was tidying up the bedding in her room when a text message came from her phone.
She opened her phone and saw a text message from Jolene: [You’re having a typhoon over there. I don’t know if I can come back tomorrow morning. The flight may have to be changed.]
Nelissa replied to Jolene’s message: [ Safety is above all else. Don’t be in a hurry to die.]
Jolene sent back: “Of course not. Do I look stupid? What are you doing?”
Nelissa entered the text: [Get ready to take a shower]
Putting down her phone, Nelissa took a long nightdress and a suit of underwear and went to take a shower first. Noelle had been pestering Edward for Nathan, so he probably wouldn’t leave tonight.
After a comfortable shower, Nelissa prepared a new towel and a new sink for Edward. She didn’t have any men’s clothes at home, and it was raining outside. She took Noelle back to the small room for Nathan to tell them stories and sleep. They were not tired of the story of the Journey to the West. The last time they talked about the part of the White Bone Demon, Nelissa continued to talk about it. On the second page, Noelle fell asleep after Nathan.
