"Yeah I do, but time changes. You'll understand later, " Edward said. He was talking from experience. He used to think that way too. When he met Daisy, everything changed.
"Nope. I just got married to make Dad and Mom happy." Luke laughed at himself and thought, 'I know that sounds bad, but it's what she wants. There's nothing wrong with making her happy. '
"Luke, don't say that. Anyway, she's a girl, and girls need attention. Whether you love her or not, you should be the best husband you can be. If it doesn't look like you're trying, other people will talk about you behind your back, " said Edward with a frown. Frankly speaking, he did not approve of what Luke had done to Michelle.
"I see. If there's nothing else, I can take off." In fact, Luke really hadn't listened to Edward at all.
"OK! Be nice to your wife. Remember that." A gentle sigh escaped Edward's mouth. He promised not to stick his nose in Luke's business anymore, but he still felt he needed to remind Luke to be nice to Michelle for returning her favor.
Coming out of the study, Luke walked so fast he didn't notice Justin. If Luke hadn't stopped in time, he might have knocked Justin down.
"Oh! Uncle Luke, in a hurry much? You almost broke my cute nose." As Justin complained to Luke, he gently rubbed his nose, as if he wanted to make a point.
"You all right? Let me see. It's just a little red. No need to worry about your cute little nose." Luke seldom spoke; much less told stupid jokes. Thus, what he just said sounded awkward.
"If it was broken, then what would you do? Huh! Where are you going in such a rush anyway? In a hurry to see Aunt Michelle?" Justin said jokingly with a sly look in his eye, gazing at Luke expectantly.
"I'd shut up right now, young man. Isn't it past your bedtime?" Luke gave him a serious look, which made him look even more aloof.
"Gosh! I'm a genius. Try and keep up." Justin shook his head and pushed the study door open.
Luke's mouth twitched a little. 'The boy is as narcissistic as his father, ' he thought.
"Daddy, are you still busy?" Justin walked over to Edward at a brisk pace.
"Right now? Yeah. What's up?" Edward asked without looking up, eyes still resting on th or a bit, Michelle, body glistening with perspiration, ordered a glass of wine and downed it at once. Her sexy dancing and brazen attitude had everyone at the bar counter interested.
"Hey! Girl, can I buy you a drink?" A man came up to her and spoke to her in a playful tone. This man must have a lot of confidence in himself.
"Thanks, but I don't need it." Michelle didn't even look at the man and went on pouring more wine into her glass from the carafe. She felt so suffocated by Luke that she just wanted to get drunk and throw off her shackles. She felt so sorry for herself, and felt so ridiculous that she fell in love with a man who didn't love her.
"Then let's have a drink together. I'm alone anyway." The man took the initiative to sit beside her, ogling her breasts with lust in his eyes. Seeing the beads of sweat rolling down her chest, he couldn't help licking his lips.
Michelle ignored him. She didn't own the bar, so she couldn't stop him. She just kept drinking, without saying a word.
"You can hold your liquor. I like that in a woman. Wanna to race me to see who gets drunk first?" Seeing that Michelle was ignoring him, the man continued to jabber.
"Really? You think I don't know what you're gonna do to me when I'm drunk? You are unbelievable! That won't work on anyone. Quit bothering me and piss off! Now!" Michelle stared at him coldly, thinking, 'Don't you know who I am? Are you tired of being alive? How dare you hit on me like that?'
