Just as An Jingxing and Eric were standing next to the car, planning to wait for the group of people to pass before leaving, the three cars stopped in front of the embassy, and a man in a black suit got out of the middle car.
The man got out of the car and respectfully walked to the back and opened the door. Soon, a pair of Italian handmade leather shoes made of calf leather appeared in front of everyone.
And Eric could see the custom logo of the leather boots at a glance. Among the people she knew, there happened to be one person who liked to wear this brand of shoes the most. Her chest was slightly stagnant, and Eric took a step back habitually.
, and sure enough, the person who stepped out of the car the next moment happened to be Edward, whom Eric least wanted to see.
Although their original purpose of coming to the embassy this time was to meet Edward, hoping that he could help Gene, Eric still felt a little awkward meeting under such circumstances. Even so, she also knew that this was undoubtedly a good time for them.
It was a very good opportunity, so she thought about it and immediately made a decision. Instead of retreating, she took a firm step forward, intending to stop Edward who had just gotten out of the car.
However, before Eric could even take two steps, he saw Edward getting out of the car not far away. Instead of walking directly towards the embassy, he turned around and lowered his head, as if following the car.
The people inside were talking, and soon they saw a faint smile on Edward's side face, extending his hand to the people in the car.
They were a pair of slender white hands, with a diamond ring as bright as a star on their ring finger. The carat was not very large, but it was very delicate. It was not difficult to see how valuable this ring was.
With only one hand, few people may be able to immediately guess who the owner of the hand is, but Eric will never forget who the owner of these hands and the owner of this ring is in his life.
abby.
This Cartier limited edition diamond wedding ring was specially made for Abby during Edward's grand wedding. The ring also has the initials of Abby and Edward.
Although Eric always said that he didn't want to go back to Edward, and seemed to not care about anything about Edward, when she saw this scene, she still couldn't help but feel a pain in her chest, and she couldn't take any steps forward.
Can't go down anymore.
Seeing Eric's discomfort, An Jingxing also recognized Abby's face and felt sorry for Eric. Tang Qianrong's matter was not necessarily urgent at this moment. It was really too embarrassing for Eric to bow his head in front of Abby and beg Edward.
Thinking of this, An Jingxing walked up to Eric, reached out and grabbed her hand, and said, "Let's come back tomorrow. The time tonight is not suitable."
After An Jingxing finished speaking, he pulled Eric to leave. Jiang Zimo on the side saw that something was wrong, and guessed that Eric had something to do with this man, so he didn't say anything, opened the car door, and asked An Jingxing to pull Eric.
When they got in the car, unexpectedly, An Jingxing and Eric had just walked to the door of the car, and before they got in the car, Abby, who had just gotten off the car, accidentally cast her eyes on them. When she saw Eric,
There was a look of surprise on his face, and he shouted loudly: "Eric? Eric, is that you?"
Abby's voice immediately attracted the attention of everyone around to An Jingxing and the others. An Jingxing didn't like this woman named Abby from the beginning. She always felt that this person was not as innocent as she seemed on the surface.
The more people she visited, the more she felt like this. Thanks to Abby, Edward soon discovered Eric. He had been looking for Eric in Bicheng for so long, but could not find him. He was extremely anxious for a long time. Now that he saw Eric
There was a sudden excitement in her heart. Without thinking, she let go of Abby's hand and ran to Eric's side. She took a closer look at her until she was sure that she was really Eric. The smile on her face finally appeared.
become thicker.
"Eric, I've been looking for you for a long time, where have you been?"
Since meeting Eric again, Edward has never wanted to let her go. This has long been undoubted in his mind. Regarding this, he also made it clear to Abby very early. Fortunately, Abby is a kind person.
An understanding woman, after hearing what she said, not only was she not unhappy at all, but she was even happy to tell herself that if she and Eric could achieve success after so many years, her good friend would also be very happy to see him.
To be honest, Edward was originally a little worried about what he was going to say to Abby, but when he heard her say that, he felt relieved and felt even more grateful and apologetic toward Abby.
So after that, Edward always wanted to compensate her in other ways. Since abby married him, she has always had no desires and no desires. She doesn't have much expectation for some luxury goods. If she doesn't like it too much,
Eric, maybe if we continue to live a good life with her, we will be very happy.
Sometimes, Edward really thought about it this way, but whenever he thought about continuing to live like this with Abby in the future, he would always feel a deep sense of regret and guilt in his heart, making him breathless.
He knows that he is a willful man, so he must get Eric in this life, otherwise he will not be able to reconcile himself to it until his death.
Eric didn't respond to Edward's question. Edward felt even more anxious when he saw her like this, but he was a mature man after all, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his actions towards Mr. Abby just now.
Moreover, his status did not allow him to bow too much to a woman in such a public situation, so he quickly softened his expression, looked at Eric in front of him, and continued: "It's good now that we're back, and we're moving here."
I'll come here and come back to Los Angeles with us the day after tomorrow."
This is a commanding tone.
As for Eric, what he hates the most is being ordered around. Perhaps it was Eric's indifferent response at the moment that also made Edward feel unhappy, so he unconsciously treated her with this attitude.
Edward felt deeply indebted to Abby, and the reason for his indebtedness was all because of Eric. Why did she never understand this? Could she never be considerate of herself?
Seeing Eric's face, An Jingxing felt that the atmosphere at this time was quite unharmonious, and it was not a good time to ask Edward for help. In addition, she really couldn't stand the woman named Abby, so she held Eric's hand.
, planning to say goodbye politely to Edward, and take Eric away first.
Unexpectedly, before An Jingxing could speak, Eric, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned around and looked at Edward behind him. The original expression on his face had faded at some point, and was replaced by a calm expression.
of indifference and coldness.
She just looked at Edward quietly without a trace of emotion, not even a trace of anger or dissatisfaction. She just looked at him calmly like water. For a long time, she suddenly lowered her head.
No one understands Eric's pride better than Edward. They have been together for more than two years, and he has rarely seen Eric bow to others, let alone requests, and he has hardly even said a word of submission.
Eric used to be by his side, and because he had his protection, there were not many people who dared to be disrespectful to her. Therefore, during that period of time, he indulged Eric's arrogance and pride in disguise.
But instead of feeling that he had done something wrong, he was happy to do it. Seeing the proud little woman in front of him raising her head every day and carving her way in the fashion world like a little tiger, he felt a sense of joy in his heart.
The pride and satisfaction of being in charge of an entire family cannot be felt.
However, Eric, who was so proud, bowed to himself in front of him today. No matter what the reason was, this made Edward feel very unhappy.
"Mr. Edward, I'm sorry to bother you. I came here today to ask for something. I hope you can lend a helping hand to my friend Gene. I know there is no free lunch in the world, and there is no help that can be given for no reason.
, so as long as you can help my friend, no matter what request you make, we will work hard to help you achieve it. I hope you can consider my proposal."
Although the gesture was full of requests and pleases, the words he blurted out made Edward's anger rush out. What do you mean? What do you mean? No matter what request you make, we will work hard to help you achieve it?
This woman...what does she think she is?
A stranger? Or someone to be entrusted to? Such a strange and indifferent tone, it seems that...the time and memories they once spent together have been wiped out with ashes...
Such thoughts made Edward feel a little out of breath. He looked at Eric in front of him coldly, his eyes exuding cold anger.
Sensing his anger, An Jingxing felt an ominous premonition, but she couldn't leave like this now. She could only look at Eric next to her with worry, but saw her looking into Edward's eyes without fear.
The man also looked unyielding.
"Miss Eric said this so suddenly, I don't seem to understand it well?" Edward's heart was filled with anger, but the smile on his face was even deeper. He looked coldly at the little woman in front of him, resisting the urge to strangle her to death.
Impulsive, word for word.
Eric was also laughing, his smile was indifferent and alienated, but it hit Edward's heart just right: "Mr. Edward has clearly understood what I meant. Are you pretending to be stupid? Although Gene and you are not close friends,
But I thought Mr. Edward was an upright and emotional man, but now the facts have proved that my previous views were wrong."
Eric's words were very serious. An Jingxing didn't know much about Edward, but just from his expression, he could tell that this man was definitely not in a good mood right now, and he even wanted to swallow Eric in one gulp.
But even so, she and Jiang Zimo can't help much. After all, this is a matter between Eric and Edward. As outsiders, speaking rashly may be self-defeating.
I saw Edward's face suddenly changed after hearing Eric's words, and he didn't say anything for a long time. At this moment, an unexpected person suddenly said: "Eric, I haven't seen you for a long time.
It's such a coincidence that you are also in Bicheng, and I just got off the plane, so let's find a place to have a meal together and talk slowly."
At this time, Abby smiled softly and harmlessly, walked to Eric's side from a short distance away, and reached out to grab her hand like a close friend. Unexpectedly, just when Abby was about to touch Eric's hand, Eric suddenly
Abby ducked away from her touch. Abby's hand was hanging in the air, a little embarrassed. However, at this moment, Edward, who had been holding back his anger, could no longer hold back.
"Eric, what's your attitude? Abby cares about you, what are you doing!"
With a tone full of protection, as a woman, no matter how well Eric hid it, An Jingxing still noticed that the moment Edward spoke, the hurt flashed across Eric's face, although it was only for a moment, but
But it makes people feel distressed.
Seeing Eric like this, An Jingxing couldn't care about anything else. He just wanted to take Eric away from this place of right and wrong. Who knew that Edward didn't want to let Eric go like this? Seeing her not saying a word,
He even walked up to her, reached out and grabbed her arm and pulled her hard. His words were full of anger and coldness: "Apologise!"
The cold and bone-chilling voice came out of Edward's mouth, like a dagger tempered with ice, piercing Eric's heart. She looked coldly at the tall man in front of her. A few days ago
He was still talking sweetly in front of her, saying with a smile that he wanted her to come back to him, but now he was holding her hand and forcing himself to apologize to another woman.
Is this the treasure he talks about? Is this the love he talks about?
At this moment, Eric suddenly smiled. She looked into Edward's eyes with neither humility nor condescension. After a long time, she said coldly: "You want me to apologize? Okay. If I apologize, will you help Gene?"
Eric is proud. The moment he bowed his head for Tang Qianrong, it was the only time in her life that she bowed her head to ask for help. And now Eric has turned back into the proud Eric. Even Edward will never let her lose money for him.
Every penny.
Edward didn't expect that she would say that. Suddenly his handsome face changed color, and the hand holding Eric slowly tightened. Eric's wrist changed color little by little. An Jingxing felt anxious and was about to stop him.
But a figure rushed to Edward's side before her, grabbed his wrist, and said reproachfully: "Edward, your scratching hurts Eric, please let go!"
Hearing Abby's voice, Edward's face changed slightly. Only then did he realize what he had just done. Seeing the paleness on Eric's face, a look of annoyance flashed between his eyebrows. The next moment, he suddenly shook off Eric's wrist.
, turned around and walked away a few steps.
An Jingxing saw that he took several deep breaths in succession, probably to calm down the anger in his heart. At this time, Abby walked up to Eric, held her hand, and stroked the purple spot on her wrist,
Frowning, Chu Chu's pitiful expression was full of guilt.
"I'm sorry, Eric, Edward is just like that, a little impulsive. In fact, he has been thinking about you in his heart. He has always cared about you. He just said that because he was so angry at your words. Don't take it to heart."
"
At first glance, Abby's words sounded like she was speaking for Edward, but upon closer inspection, they were full of feelings of defense for Edward, and her tone clearly meant she was Edward's wife, not to mention Eric.
An ordinary person, hearing such words, would probably not feel anything at all.
Sure enough, as soon as Abby finished speaking, Eric, who always spoke his mind directly, smiled coldly, shook off Abby's hand, and said coldly: "What a coincidence, I just met up with someone, and Abby, you came from the United States, and
Such a reunion scene is simply more likely than the chance of Mars hitting the earth. Abby, you are really addicted to acting. You can act so realistically no matter where you are."
After Abby got together with Edward, she started to get involved in the entertainment industry, and now she is considered to be a little diva-level figure. Eric's ridicule was direct and did not save Abby any face. When Abby heard her words, her face changed slightly, but she still
He didn't say anything. Seeing Abby like this, An Jingxing felt that instead of feeling any sympathy for her, he felt that this woman had ulterior motives.
Eric must have discovered this a long time ago, otherwise she wouldn't be able to be so tit-for-tat with Abby. Although Eric is a bit sharp, he is definitely not the kind of woman who would make trouble unreasonably over trivial matters.
Sure enough, not long after Eric finished speaking, an angry voice came from behind Abby. It turned out that after Edward took several deep breaths, his mood calmed down little by little. He also felt that his reaction just now was a bit...
It's too extreme. After all, Eric should be in a bad mood when he sees himself and Abby together. Even if he wants to find a reason for Eric, he still wants to sit down and have a talk with Eric. Who knows, just after he adjusted
I'm in a good mood, and I plan to come back and have a calm word with Eric...
But he just happened to hear Eric's mockery of Abby, and the sarcasm without mercy, and Abby tolerated Eric without resistance. Such Abby made Edward feel very distressed, and at the same time, his anger towards Eric burned to the point of burning.
