The Proxy Bride. Chapter 13
EDWARD flipped over his wife as soon as she laid down on the bed.
“Edward!” Rossana suddenly said his name.
“Psst, don’t say anything,” he said softly.
Rossana stared at him because of the sudden change in his behavior. Wow, his voice is so sweet. Really, if your husband was like this, my gosh, she would pray that every day was like this.
“You are so lovely, you know, you have an innocent face, soft and sweet lips. I really like it. ” Yeah, he said, from his heart. Lying from this moment is forbidden.
Rossana seemed to be struck by magic at that moment. because the man on top of her was very different. She closed her eyes on her own when she saw his lips slowly getting closer to hers. His sweet words make her weak. Maybe it’s because of her innocent mind and heart.
Edward stopped in his attempt to kiss Herl. Oh, damnit! Why am I doing this? ” He stared at the face of the woman’s wife, who closed her eyes and looked down at her lips, and he swallowed. Oh, dammit! I want to grab those lips. And kiss her so deeply. ”
Rossana’s eyeballs moved, because no lips were touching hers. She opened her eyes. Their eyes met.
Edward didn’t know what to do, and he suddenly changed his mood and was back the way he was to her. “Are you waiting for my kiss?” There was mockery in his voice.
Rossana couldn’t answer. It was obvious that she was waiting for him to kiss her.
“Why didn’t you answer? Did you like my kiss even though I was drunk last night, huh? ”
Rossana was still speechless. She was embarrassed because she closed her eyes.
“If I kiss you now, maybe you won’t forget and look for it,” Edward continued to speak.
Rossana just looked at the man on top of her.
“Do you want me to kiss you now, sweetheart?” He even caressed her cheek. ”
Rossana was burning with his touch because of the warmth of Edward’s palm and the speed of her heart beating, in addition to the fact that she was calling her sweetheart, because it was nice to hear it.
“Answer me, I’m getting horny now. I know you can feel the heat of my body. Do you want us to baptize this soft bed now?” He pressed his waist around her belly even more. to tell his wife what happened to him.
Rossana could feel what it had. At that moment, it was as if he was really enveloped in magic.
“Will you just stare at me, sweetheart?”
Rossana felt her lips drying out, so she wet them with her saliva.
When he did, Edward’s mind returned to his senses.
I’m not drunk right now. Even if you say yes, I won’t kiss you and touch you. You’re too quick to give in. You’re only getting sweet words. You’ll give up your body right away. “What if I wasn’t the one who told you that you’d be in heaven in an instant?” he mocked.
It was as if cold water had been poured over Rossana. As Edward taught her.
“Ahhh! You’re bad! ” She pushed him with all her strength.
Edward didn’t move when Rossana pushed him. But he willingly left her on top of her.
As Rossana ran out of the room, she went straight to the garden, where she released her tears.
Edward sat on the bed and palmed his face. “Ahhh! Stupid me! ” Yeah, he knows he hurt the woman’s feelings.
You’re bad. I’m not a bad woman. Why do you think of me like that? Have you proved it? Rossana kept sobbing as she held her chest. She was too hurt.
Edward went to the veranda of the room where he was looking at Rossana, and he knew she was crying.
“Ahhh, you’re so stupid, Edward. “Stupid!” he scolded himself. He went inside again and walked around, wondering what to say to his wife. “Damnit! Why am I so affected when it comes to her? She’s a stranger to me. “Ahhh!” he shouted loudly.
Rossana stayed in the garden while Edward went down and sat in the living room.
By lunchtime, the caretaker of the house called them to eat.
“Auntie Nena, please call my wife. She is in the garden.”
The lady was about to leave; she was wondering what the boss’s wife’s name was. “Sir, what’s ma’am’s name?”
Edward hesitated to answer, even though he didn’t know his wife’s name. He heard her name from Mica, but he couldn’t remember why he should say? “I will do it myself.” He stood up and went to the garden.
There was surprise on Auntie Nena’s face. She thinks that Edward doesn’t know his wife. He couldn’t say his name since, earlier, she just followed the gaze of her boss.
When Edward saw Rossana, he was hesitant to approach her. “Damn! He felt uncomfortable, but he came near her. “Let’s eat!” he says.
Actually, even though she was hungry. “I’m not hungry,” she replied, adding that she just didn’t want to face him.
Edward was irritated by her answer. “You know what I hate the most is the food waiting. You are not hungry? Fine, don’t ever eat!” He left it.
Rossana suddenly got up and followed Edward. Maybe it won’t feed him.
He saw it in the glass door wall. She was following him and he smiled.
When they were at the dining table,
“Join us to eat, auntie Nena, uncle Ambo,” Edward said to the couple.
“Sir, it’s okay to get ahead of yourself.”
“Sit down now.” The couple did nothing but follow it.
While they were eating, neither Edward nor his wife not said anything. Ambo and Nena just follow them quietly.
After they ate, Edward said goodbye to the older couple and that they would rest first.
He was about to go up the stairs when Rossana spoke.
“Just a moment.”
Edward asked her, “Why?”
“I… I want to go home.”
Because of what she said, the man approached him.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“Why are you going home when you’re already at home?”
“W—what do you mean?”
“Wait.” He looked around first when he saw that the old couple were not around. ” I don’t remember your name. Tell me your name first.” He spoke only weakly.
“Ro—Rossana.”
“Rossana. Rossana, it’s easy, we’ll live here from now on.”
The couple heard what Edward said just in time for them to be in the living room. “Sir, are you going to live here? “It’s good then so that your house can be blessed by a priest,” said the lady.
“I know that, so tomorrow I will have the house blessed. anutie Nena, uncle Ambo, get ready tomorrow. ”
“Yes, sir,” the two answered at the same time.
Edward turned to his wife. “What are you going to tell me, Rossana?” he asked, even though she had already said it.
“I want to go home. My thing is at Sherry’s. ”
The couple looked at Rossana. because she mentioned the name of the woman they knew should be their boss’s wife. Edward had told the couple the name of his fiancee before. He even asked the two if Sherry would like their future home.
“Is that your problem? I’ll send it to Mica here or I’ll have my friend pick it up, so it’s easy.”
“I would like to come home because I will talk to my parents.” Rossana did not continue what she had to say because the couple were there.
They got what Rossana meant. “Sir, we are going to rest. We leave you now. If you need anything, we’ll be in the room.” the lady said.
Edward nodded at the two.
When the couple left, Edward spoke. “Continue, what are you saying just now, Rossana?”
“I’m going home first, because my family doesn’t know anything about this.”
Edward looked at her seriously.”Hmmm, you really planned well to cheat me. “Go home. If you don’t come back here, it’s on you, Rossana. One thing I should remind you of and think about where you will get the money. Like I said in the church, you will pay for everything that I have spent on that wedding. Then you will be free. And don’t ever think that you will go running away. Think twice before you do, because I’m going to find you. If I have to turn the whole Philippines upside down to see you, I will do it! ” He threatened.
Rossana felt fear at what he said. He wanted to cry in front of him, but she held back the tears that wanted to escape. “You’re saying that to me because you know I have nothing to pay you back,” she answered.
“No, Rossana, I’m just reminding you. It’s up to you. ” You decide what you should do.
“Why, do you want me to be here in your house?” We don’t know each other. Please leave me alone. Maybe I’ve already paid you because you took my innocence, “she finally said.
“Oh, you think so, Rossana. If there are many women out there who are pure and clean, you are not the only one. “I only want you to feel the wonderful life you gave me because of what you did,” he said calmly, but with a restraint not to become angry.
Rossana knew she was going to lose. Just in case, where will he get
“What else did you want? “Go home to your family.” He turned his back on her and went up to the room to rest.
“How can I get home if I don’t have any money, even for my fare?” Her tears are already falling. She is even worse than the beggar because she had nothing.
Because she really wanted to go home first to see the parents and siblings, she took courage and went to the couple in their room.
Instead of the crazy husband, she will ask for the fare. Maybe he will shout at her and say, “Just walk to go home.”
She nervously knocked on the bedroom door of the couple.
“Nena, look outside. Maybe it’s, sir,” Ambo ordered his wife.
Nena immediately stood up and opened the door.
“Oh, ma’am, do you have something to ask me to do?”
“Oh no, Auntie, I wanted to ask you for something.”
“What is that, ma’am? Tell me and I will do it. ”
“Can you just call me Rossana, Auntie?” She said gently. because ma’am is not suitable for her.
“Oh, fine if that’s what you want, Rossana.”
Rossana smiled at her.
“What exactly do you need, Rossana?”
“I’m shy, but I really need it.”
“Do you need money, Rossana?” she guessed.
Rossana nodded shyly.
The lady did not hesitate. “Just a moment and I’ll get some money.”
“Thank you very much, auntie.” Rossana felt relieved.
“That’s nothing for a moment, Rossana.”
“Is that so, Sir Edward?” “Are you talking to Nena?” Ambo asked.
“No, his wife.”
“Oh, what does she need?”
“Hey, just go to sleep. You’re old, you have a lot of questions. ”
He closed his eyes. “That’s up to you,” he said.
She went back to the door. “Here, Rossana. I’m sorry if that’s all I can give you. ” It costs five hundred pesos.
“This is already big, Auntie Nena. Thank you. I will pay you back. ”
“Don’t think about the payment, Rossana. “Where are you going?”
“I’m going home to my house, Auntie.”
“That’s it, okay Rossana, go now so you don’t get stuck in traffic on the road and you can come back early, then we’ll talk when everything is settled.”
“Yes, thank you again, Auntie, I’m going now.”
The lady nodded, and Rossana left.
