Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 761

Hearing the steady footsteps behind her,

Felicity's heartbeat sped up, she did not dare to turn her head, and silently pushed open the bedroom door and walked in.

The footsteps behind her did not stop as they followed her into the room.

Originally, Felicity couldn't stand him saying those ambiguous words in the living room, so she ran upstairs to hide from him.

However, she didn't expect him to follow her, as Felicity had already taken a pill just now, her eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

What should she do?

Did she really have to eat it again? Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Wouldn't she be taking the wrong medicine?

However, the man behind her was definitely looking at her, so Felicity had no choice but to walk towards the cabinet by the side and pick up her medicine, then absentmindedly tore off the wrapping paper, and used her beautiful eyes to look at the man behind her.

When the man walked in, he closed the door behind him.

Inside the sealed space, Felicity could hear her own heartbeat, and her heartbeat was accelerating.

"Felicity, is there something you're hiding from me?" Edward asked in a low voice as he looked at her stiff and petite back.

"What is it? No!" Felicity was already guilty, but hearing him ask that, she was even more frightened.

"Then what are you nervous about?" The man walked to her side with heavy steps. He saw that she was only holding the medicine and didn't take it. He reached out his hand and pressed her small hand.

"You can't hide it from my eyes. You aren't good at lying to me." Hearing his words, Felicity's heart thumped.

Did this man know anything?

"I... I didn't hide…" Felicity was still making her last stand, but she was actually still extremely afraid. Edward had said that she had hidden things, but she seemed to have lied to him a lot.

"Last time abroad, your phone received a caring message. I asked you if it was Calvin's, do you remember your answer?" Edward's gloomy eyes tightly locked onto her pale face. Looking at her stupefied expression, he felt his heart ache.

He really shouldn't have questioned her about this, because the wound on her head hadn't completely healed yet.

However, he really could not hold back anymore. No matter what he did, he could compromise, but the moment it came into contact with his feelings, no matter how calm Edward Hughes was, he would lose

all reason.

Felicity's beautiful eyes instantly widened, of course she remembered her own answer.

She seemed to have said yes, and then Edward had also believed her words.

"Can you tell me the truth? Even though I'm not your husband in name right now, but our relationship has always been stable. I don't want you to hide anything from me. You know me, so I'm always on guard against feelings." Edward reached out his hands and helped her prepare the medicine, then picked up the small hand that she froze on the ground, and gently placed the medicine on her palm before giving the cup of water to her.

As Felicity looked at the pills in her hands, her expression grew dazed.

"Take the medicine first!" Edward's tone was not strong, and only maintained his usual calm.

Felicity was completely panicking, she suddenly placed the medicine on the table, and sighed, "Actually, I already took the medicine!"

Edward's handsome face froze slightly, and his deep gaze that was as deep as the ocean investigated her expression even more deeply.

Felicity took a deep breath, and then, she bit her lips, "Do you know anything?"

"What is your relationship with Richard?" Edward suddenly asked.

This question caused Felicity's brain to explode.

She stretched out her hand and pressed it against her head.

When Edward saw her make such a move, his handsome face stiffened. He immediately looked at her with concern, "What's wrong? Is your head hurting again? "

Felicity shook her head, "No, Edward, if I were to tell you about this, would you believe me?"

"I will!" Edward's voice was low and his gaze was firm as he stared at her, "But you must tell me the truth."

"What I said was all true. Between Richard and I, something did indeed happen, but it's not as serious as what you think."

Felicity nervously looked at the man's expression, deeply afraid that he would suddenly be angry.

"To what extent?" Edward's expression was also strained, his sexy and thin lips tightly pressed together into a line, deeply afraid that she would say something that would make him feel despair.

Felicity took another deep breath, gathered up enough courage, and said, "He confessed to me before, but you must not misunderstand. He simply likes me, and I've always been friends with him."

"Did he confess to you first? When?" The man clenched his fist tightly and his voice became heavy.

She was very uneasy when she saw his anger which was still holding back. Thus, she stretched out her soft fingers in an attempt to calm him down, and only when she touched his fingers did she realize that his fingers were tightly clenched, as if he was about to erupt at any time.

"Edward, don't be angry okay? I know that I shouldn't have hidden this from you, but don't worry, Richard and I will never have a relationship that surpasses that of a man and a woman. Now, he also has a girlfriend…"

"Why didn't you tell me that Elizabeth was the one that he hired to act?" Edward was so smart, under his sharp gaze, no matter how fake, she could not hide anything.

He had already felt that Elizabeth and her brother didn't look like a couple.

Although they were trying their best to act like they loved each other, that feeling was too deliberate and too stiff.

Felicity did not expect Edward to even know about this matter, causing her entire body to tremble uncontrollably.

Her thick, feather-like eyelashes rapidly blinked twice, concealing the panic in her heart.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you, but I'm afraid that you'll be very disappointed once you know the truth." It was as if she didn't know what else to say other than apologize.

"Felicity, I really am disappointed. I've always thought that you would never lie to me!" Edward took a step forward, and leaned very close to her. His voice was filled with a strong sense of loss.

Felicity was so frightened that her face paled.

She raised her eyes to look at the man's injured black eyes, and her heart was in a mess.

"Edward, I didn't mean to lie to you, I was just very scared, I felt that it was such a ridiculous thing, it's best not to let you know, I'm afraid that it will hurt your heart, but you must believe me, when I knew about this matter, I was also very afraid, very uneasy, Richard did not do anything, he also wanted to let this matter pass." Felicity incoherently tried to explain her reason for hiding, but she discovered that the fear in her heart had already made her eyes redden from anxiety.

Seeing the man's tightly pursed lips, the fury in his eyes, Felicity didn't know how else to explain herself.
