Chapter 235 Love was Not Like This re-edited
Bella thought Charles would have explained something to her for what happened in front of the door this morning, but he was not only late to the company but also did not talk to her until the end of work.
Although there were no meetings, the interviewers constantly came and she was very busy.
At noon, Edwin asked her to have lunch, and colleagues did not know their true relationship. So, everyone in the staff canteen looked at them with complicated eyes. Their eyes were filled with pity and disdain.
Edwin joked, “If you allow me to announce your identity, they will not misunderstand.”
“Misunderstand what?” Bella’s mind was full of the scenes that Katherine was crying in Charles’s arms, therefore she did not notice the eyes around her.
“Misunderstand that you Charles.” Edwin chuckled. “Won’t he get angry that you have lunch with me?”
“Come on. It’s impossible, and he knows that you are my brother. He won’t get angry” Bella’s eyes fell down and she looked a little upset. “He does not care about this.”
Looking at her sad face, Edwin suddenly felt the same as her. It turned out that his love toward her was less important than her feelings.
He just wanted her to be happy every day, no matter who she wanted to be with.
“Then what does he care about?” Edwin then asked. “If he doesn't care about you, I will take you back home.”
“Back...Home?” Bella seemed even more frustrated. “Brother, I don't know if it is because of amnesia, I can't remember the past at all. I just feel a little familiar with those things, but I don’t have any impression of what you said. “
Edwin held her hand and said. “If you think these memories are very important, we can go to the place in the photo to find them.”
“Really?” Bella looked surprised.
“Of course, wherever you want to go, I will accompany you there.” Edwin smiled gently with his soft eyes.
“Where are you going?” Charles’s cold voice arose.
Even Bella didn’t see him, she heard the sound of sucking cold air around her.
She felt a little speechless. It was obvious that everyone was here to gossip. They must think she had an ambiguous relationship with Edwin, and now Charles came. This kind of relationship between them...was really a good topic of gossip.
Charles sat down beside Bella, and his long arm placed directly on the back of her chair. As long as she leaned backward, she would fall into his arms.
She subconsciously moved forward, however, without knowing what happened, the chair’s leg suddenly broke with a snap.
She immediately fell down, at the same moment, Charles quickly took her into his arms and poked her nose intimately, “You forget how to sit on a chair?”
It had been embarrassed that she broke the chair and now she even sat on his lap in public. She had no face to see anyone.
She pushed Charles's chest away, “Let me down.”
“What if I let you down and you broke the chair again?”
“It was an accident.”
“I don't want to have a second accident.”
“But I can’t sit like this all the time?”
Charles teased her. “If you don't mind, you can sit like this.”
Bella rolled her eyes, “Even during my work time?”
“From this afternoon, you can move to my office. I don't mind if we share one chair.”
“I mind.” She continued to push him, “Don't do this, it's not good.”
“Why it’s not good, you are my wife.”
Edwin looked at such a loving scene designed by Charles, then glanced at the broken chair and smiled. “Lord did well.”
His words naturally refer to the fact that Charles smashed the chair, but Charles intentionally distorted his meaning. And he said naturally, “Of course, in order to save my wife, I should move quickly, to prevent other people to swoop in.”
Edwin responded back, “You have so many things to deal with which are easy for people to swoop in.”
“No matter how busy I am, I am sure that someone never has a chance.” Charles held Bella’s hand and looked at him with a faint smile. “Mr. Beck, it seems like you don’t want Bella to have a happy marriage.” He shook his head and seemed to be a little disappointed. “You are such a weird brother.”
They sat in the corner, far away from the crowd. And the arrival of Charles had made them even farther, so they could not hear the actual content of the dialogue except the intense atmosphere.
Edwin had to admit that Charles was very good at snooping people's minds. Edwin’s face changed slightly, and his eyes swept to Bella. Seeing that she didn’t notice what happened, he felt a sense of relief and stopped talking against Charles. And faintly said, “My lord, you must be kidding. I only wish Bell can live happily in the future, so reminding you that if you can’t give her happiness, I promise to take her back home. “
Then he stood up and looked at Bella whose face was still red, saying, “Bell, I need to go back to the company now. Remember if you are not happy, then call me, if someone treats you bad, I will pick you up home.”
Hearing this, Bella quickly stood up, so did Charles with her. Even he knew Edwin was Bella’s fake brother, he had to do a face work because he was his brother in law nominally.
He tightly circled Bella’s waist. “Bella has been married and she doesn’t need you anymore, if she wants to find her memory, as her husband, it’s my duty, Mr. Beck doesn’t need to worry a lot.”
Edwin looked at Bella who hid shyly in Charles’s arms, and his heartfelt uncomfortable. Then he nodded slightly toward her without saying a word and left straight.
Bella wanted to send him, but Charles held her waist, and said gently to her, “Accompany me to eat.”
Then she sat down where Edwin sat, Charles did not stop her this time and let Ziv prepare the lunch.
“Charles...never mind...” Bella looked at him and sighed silently.
However, Charles was laughing while eating. “I am very happy that you didn’t get angry of this morning. This is enough to prove that you still care about me.”
Bella did not expect him to guess out her thoughts, then she directly said, “Charles, I can't understand you, I don't know what you want to do now. If you just want me to be willing to give birth to a child, you don’t need to treat Katherine like this.”
“Bell, what I have done isn't it obvious enough? I only want you, no one else.”
Bella shook her head, “I don't know if all men are like this. You want me to love you, but you are entangled with Katherine. Also, you want to repay Katherine's life-saving grace, but you have a vague relationship with me. Charles, love is not like this.”
Although there were no meetings, the interviewers constantly came and she was very busy.
At noon, Edwin asked her to have lunch, and colleagues did not know their true relationship. So, everyone in the staff canteen looked at them with complicated eyes. Their eyes were filled with pity and disdain.
