Chapter 115
Chapter 115 A Duplicitous Woman
"Edwin..."
"Hurry up. Don't talk nonsense," Edwin urged impatiently,
This was his grandmother's heirloom, and it was for his wife. He could not give it to Katelyn.
When Katelyn heard this, her heart instantly sank, and her tears couldn't help but slide down. "Edwin,
Grandma gave this to me."
Edwin replied coldly. "This is Grandma's gift to my wife." The implication was that he would not marry her.
Katelyn felt like she had been struck by lightning.
She stared at Edwin with wide eyes.
"Edwin, what do you mean by this?"
Edwin pondered for a few seconds and said with a frown, "I mean what I said."
"Do you mean that you won't marry me?" Katelyn asked in a trembling voice, her eyes full of horror and disappointment.
Edwin was silent, not knowing how to answer.
"Edwin, tell me quickly. You will marry me, right?"
"Grandma is seriously ill now. I hope that you can cooperate with me and continue to pretend in front of
Grandma.
"If you are willing, I will marry you. However, you have to sign a prenup. You should not have high expectations of me, let alone expect that you will be the only woman beside me." When Katelyn heard this, she felt a chill all over.
"Hurry up and take off the jewelry."
"If you like it, I can buy another set for you. I can't give you this set."
Katelyn moved her lips and could not help but cry. "Edwin..."
"Don't let me say it again." Edwin's voice was cold and commanding.
Katelyn did not dare to disobey. She could only take off the jewelry with tears in her eyes and put it in the box
silently.
Edwin took the jewelry box and handed over a black card. "Go to the jewelry shop and buy another set. Use
my card."
It was impossible for him to be so ungentlemanly and to take back the things he had given a woman. Although he had taken back this set of jewelry, he would make it up to her. Katelyn sniffed and sobbed, "Edwin, are you no longer in love with me?"
Edwin frowned "Don't ask such a question again. You have an answer in your heart."
Squeak
The car stopped in front of the Reece's house.
"You've arrived. Get out of the car."
Katelyn sat still. She cried and shook Edwin's arm. "Edwin, what did I do wrong? Why do you hate me so
much?"
"It must be because of Julianna. Before she came back, we loved each other so much. Ever since she came
back, you've changed completely. You no longer love me..."
Edwin withdrew his arm impatiently. "I told you before not to involve Julianna in our affairs.
"You're different people. Don't compare yourself with her,
"Edwin..."
"Get out of the car quickly. I have to go back to the company for a meeting."
Katelyn sobbed and opened the car door sadly.
She got out of the car.
Edwin directly stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
"Edwin!" Katelyn's eyes were scarlet, and she stomped her foot hard. "Edwin! I will make you regret what
you've done to me."
Half an hour later.
Edwin drove to the Keaton Group.
After parking the car, he subconsciously locked the car.
Just as he was about to get into the elevator, he suddenly saw that the front of the car was flashing and felt. something was wrong. The color of the front of the car seemed to be strange. Edwin frowned, turned back to the front of the car, and bent down to check it.
When he saw this, he was so angry.
The car had been hit, and the repair was very rough. The entire hood had been destroyed.
Katelyn casually mentioned to him on the phone that the car had been slightly scratched.
The problem was that she didn't ask him to make an insurance claim. He had thought there was no big
problem.
Then Edwin checked the dashcam video.
When he took a look, he found that Katelyn had been in the car with a strange man.
And it was this man who damaged the car.
Although they didn't do anything intimate in the car, their words and actions showed that they were close.
If not for the car crash, Edwin probably wouldn't have watched the dashcam video in his life, which was why Katelyn dared to take Connor for a ride.
After watching the video, Edwin felt a chill down his spine, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.
This man had an unusual relationship with Katelyn.
"Andy."
"Mr. Keaton, what can I do for you?"
"Go get this person's information."
"Yes."
"Email all the information about this person to me in ten minutes."
"Okay."
Ten minutes later.
Andy sent Connor's information to Edwin.
Edwin checked it and took a look. This person was Katelyn's schoolmate. There was nothing else special
about Connor.
Katelyn sometimes went to see her classmates or had parties with them. It could not be determined that she had a special relationship with Connor.
Moreover, during the six years when they had been together, Katelyn had always been a pure girl in front of
Edwin.
In the past, when he held her hand, her face would be red for a long while. When he kissed her, she was so shy that she did not dare to open her eyes. When he wanted to touch her, she was so scared that her face turned pale and she trembled.
Katelyn said that she did not accept premarital sex.
Such a conservative girl couldn't cheat on Edwin. It was because she was conservative that he had always respected her and never touched her.
But now, it seemed that she was a duplicitous woman.
The hospital.
Julianna had already gone through the discharge formalities. Originally, the doctor wanted her to stay for a
few more days, yet she was worried about the three children, so she insisted on being discharged that day.
"Ms. Reece, are you sure you want to be discharged?"
"I'm sure. I'm fine now. I still have to hurry to Florida to pick up Alex and Bruce."
Coco was worried. "But you are so weak..."
"It's okay. I'm not that fragile."
Soon after Edwin left, Julianna firmly left the hospital.
Today was the weekend, and she had to hurry to Florida to pick up Alex and Bruce.
The afternoon.
By the time Julianna arrived in Florida, it was already dark.
The two little fellows were anxious.
"Mommy, why are you here so late to pick us up?"
"I had something to do, so I was delayed."
"Oh."
"Hurry up and leave."
The two little guys hopped onto the ship and chatted all the way.
Philadelphia and Florida were both coastal cities, and the two cities were separated by the sea. Therefore,
people traveled between the two places by ship.
"Mommy, there's something I want to discuss with you," said Bruce, looking at Julianna with a wicked
expression.
Julianna looked at her son with a smile. "Okay, go ahead," she said.
Bruce tilted his little head and said, "Well, Glenn said that I was particularly talented at acting."
"And then?"
"He said that I could be a good actor."
"Bruce, you are still young. You should concentrate on studying."
Bruce looked at Julianna proudly and argued, "But I am very interested in acting. Glenn said that their company was going to make a movie and that they needed a very cute kid. "Glenn thought that I was very suitable."
"What do you think?" Julianna could not help but laugh at his words.
"I think I'm so cute, smart, and talented at acting. I'm sure I'm good enough for this role."
"Uh..." Julianna frowned. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
When did this little fellow become so thick-skinned?
However, she respected her children's thoughts. If Bruce was eager to do that, she would not strongly oppose
"You want to shoot that movie very much?"
"Yes."
"Alex, what do you think?"
"Mommy, just let Bruce do what he wants," Alex said with a cool expression.
"Alas, I can't do anything with you guys."
"Mommy, let me go. I want to make a movie," said Bruce, shaking Julianna's arm.
"Alright. Then I'll call Glenn. But since you want to play the role, don't be afraid of hardships.
"And you can't delay your studies." When she said this, Julianna suddenly paused.
Was she too harsh on them?
They were only four years old. There was no need for her to be so strict with them. Since they had hobbies,
she should support them.
"What are you interested in, Alex?"
"Playing computer games." Alex was naturally sensitive to numbers, and he was self-taught when playing computer games. He had the potential to be a hacker.
"Okay. I'll call Glenn tomorrow."
