Billionaire’s Mistress

Chapter 34



Edmund’s POV

Oarlan sighed, “Mr. President, why don’t you just tell Leanna the truth?”

“It’s Miss Leanna!” I corrected him, “Oarlan, remember, don’t call me wrong again.”

“But… Why don’t you ask the Miss Fisher to explain to her? Maybe she will listen to MissFisher, so that she will know the reason why you have to marry MissFisher. She should understand.” Oarlan suggested.

Hearing his proposal, I instantly put away the magazine in my hand and stared at him. “Don’t get Myrna involved.”

Oarlan said, “I see. People like Miss Fisher won’t take advantage of others if they know that the CEO has another person in his heart.”

“I owe her. I have to pay her back.” I said, looking out of the window.

The sun was shining brightly in the garden.

My mind was pulled back to ten years ago.

At that time, I was studying abroad alone. A car accident almost killed me. Fortunately, at a critical moment, a girl drove by and saw the scene of the car accident. Regardless of safety, she saved me from the badly deformed car.

A minute after I was pulled out of the car, the oil spilled from the car and exploded.

No one could imagine what would happen if the girl hadn’t been there.

“Yes, if it weren’t for Miss Fisher, you would have…” Oarlan sighed, “As a matter of fact, Miss Fisher is also a poor person. Although she is the only daughter of Mr. Fisher, she can’t inherit everything of Mr. Fisher because she is not a boy. In order to keep these wealth of Mr. Fisher from falling into the hands of other people in the Mr. Fisher’s family, she can only let the Fisher get married. And the only person that she can trust and marry in this world is you,, Others can’t have any chance to slander. ”

“After Mr. Fisher’s death, you can take over The Fisher group successfully. After Miss Fisher has a firm foothold in the company, we can cancel our marriage.”

I listened to Oarlan’s sigh silently and turned to look at the busy figure in the kitchen.

Three years at most. Leanna, can you wait?

Leanna’s POV

Although I have changed from Edmund’s woman to his butler, I don’t intend to live in this villa anymore.

In the evening, I prepared the dinner. When Edmund and Oarlan entered the restaurant, I was about to leave.

Seeing that I was about to leave the restaurant, Oarlan asked, “Leanna, where are you going? Sit down and eat with us.”

“No, thanks. I live far away. I’m afraid there’s no car if I’m late. You can leave the tableware there after dinner. I’ll come and collect it tomorrow morning.” I said without looking back.

“You don’t live here tonight?” Oarlan was shocked.

“Didn’t Mr. Edmund say that I would work eight hours a day? As for the time outside eight hours, I think I should be free.” I said sarcastically.

“You…”

“Let her go.” Edmund, who had been silent all this time, put down the bowl in his hand and said coldly.

I left the villa and walked two kilometers to the road.

Normally, when cars went in and out, I didn’t think the villa area was very large. Today, I walked on two legs. I finally understood why the villa area could be so quiet even though it is located in the center of the city.

The green field covered a large area, and the natural sound insulation barrier formed by the layers of trees isolated the noise outside.

It took more than ten minutes for the bus to arrive. When the bus stopped and the door opened, I saw that there were too many people in it.

go?

If it were in normal times, I would definitely not hesitate.

But now, I have a baby in my belly. I can’t help but worry about it in such a crowded environment. If I accidentally squeeze it, will it be dangerous.

When I was hesitating, the car had closed the door and was driving forward.

Looking at the bus driving away and gently touching the flat belly, I only feel very sad.

“Ding Dong.” The phone in the bag rang. It was a text reminder.

I took out my phone and saw the message from Evelyn. “Leanna, come to the Well restaurant. There are a few colleagues in our department who can’t come to the party because of something. Several seats are empty and there are many delicious food. The manager asked us to call the family members. Hurry up. ”

I saw the message and was about to refuse.

I don’t like places with too many people, especially now I’m in a bad mood, and I don’t want to eat with strangers I don’t know at all.

But before I could finish editing the message, Evelyn’s second message came again. “Leanna, come on. Even if you don’t want to eat, you have to eat something for my nephew. Don’t cook noodles at home again. Do you hear me?”

Her words warmed my heart.

Yes, I’m not alone now. Even if I don’t want to eat, I have to live strong for the sake of the baby in my belly.

“Okay, I’ll be right here.” After that, I walked towards the restaurant.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

When I arrived at the Well restaurant, Evelyn had been waiting for me for a long time.

As soon as we met, Evelyn pulled me into the box.

“Is it appropriate for you to invite me to your department’s dinner party?”

“Why not? Our manager has said that we can call them family members. Don’t worry. There are so many dishes on the table that we can’t eat them all. You don’t have to entertain anyone later. Just eat your food.”

While they were talking, she and I entered the private room.

As soon as the dishes were served, everyone looked at the table and started to eat.

Evelyn led me to sit down. The department manager was a man in his more than 30 years old. When he saw me, he smiled and said, “Evelyn, you’ve brought a beautiful woman here for us. Why don’t you introduce her to us?”

Evelyn chuckled, “manager, it makes sense to be introduced. Aren’t you afraid that sister-in-law will know that you are in such a hurry to ask for an introduction?”

Her joke made everyone laugh.

Although I felt a little embarrassed, I stood up gracefully and introduced myself to everyone. “Hello, everyone. My name is Leanna, and I’m Evelyn’s good friend. I came uninvited today. I’m sorry for being abrupt. I hope it won’t disappoint you.”

“Miss Leanna, right? Don’t be so formal with me. Although it’s a department dinner, we are just friends. There’s nothing to be upset about as long as you don’t mind us making trouble.” The manager waved his hand and said.

“That’s right, that’s right. Come on, don’t say anything. Everyone, raise your glasses and propose a toast to the manager. Without him, we don’t know when we will have this meal today. Let’s thank the manager first.” Someone proposed with a glass of wine on the table.

So we all raised their glasses.

I’m pregnant, so I can’t drink. Evelyn poured me a glass of juice and proposed a toast to everyone.

After drinking the first glass of wine, everyone began to laugh.

I’m in the early stage of pregnancy and have no appetite. But I also know that the more I vomit, the more I want to eat. Otherwise, the baby in my belly is not nutritious at all. How can it grow up.

So I lowered my head to eat after hearing Evelyn’s words.

After three rounds of drinking, the female compatriots on the table were somewhat drunk, and my stomach was almost full. Then I reminded Evelyn, whose face was red, “Evelyn, I’m full. Don’t drink too much.”

“Don’t worry. I’m fine. I won’t get drunk.” She waved her hand casually, but suddenly looked at the door and exclaimed, “Miss Fisher?”

Hearing her voice, everyone at the table and I also looked to the door. As expected, we saw Myrna coming in with a sweet smile on her face. “I’m having dinner upstairs. I heard from Edna that you were having dinner here, so I come here to have a look. Did I disturb you?”

The manager was the first to react. He immediately stood up from his seat and said, “Miss Fisher, it’s our honor that you can come to see us. Please have a seat. I’ll ask the waiter to add another seat.”

Myrna shook her hand and said, “no, thanks. The person who picked me up will be here soon. I won’t stay long.”

“Miss Fisher, is it Mr. Edmund who picked you up?” Evelyn, who was drunk, raised her hand and asked loudly.

As soon as she said that, everyone’s breath stopped.

Everyone carefully looked at Myrna, afraid that she would be angry.

Myrna turned to look, but her expression froze. The smile on her face froze, and soon she smiled again. “Have we met before? You look familiar.”

When she said this, she looked at me.

Looking at her, my heart skipped a beat.

Was this a small world? How could I be recognized.

When rivals in love met, they should have been jealous, but for some reason, when I saw her, I didn’t feel jealous. Instead, I felt ashamed.

Because of the dim light and the distance , I didn’t see her face clearly that night.

Now when I see her again, I can clearly see her beautiful face and elegant temperament. I seem to understand why I lose.

I don’t think I can beat her just by my appearance.

Slowly, she stood up. It was better to confess than to remind her of the place where she and I met and cause misunderstanding. So I simply said, “Miss Fisher, nice to meet you. I’m the butler of Mr. Edmund. We have met in the other villa of Mr. Edmund before.”

We might meet again in the future.

“Oh, I remember. You were at Edmund’s house when I went there that day. So you are his butler. I thought you were his…”

She raised her eyebrows and smiled brightly. She took a look at Evelyn, who was drunk, and continued, “how did she know that it was Edmund who would pick me up later? You must have told her, right?”

“No… I didn’t…” I denied, but soon I realized that Edmund might come here later.

I can’t help but feel a little anxious. I don’t want to meet him outside.

“It turns out that Miss Leanna is the butler of Mr. Edmund. It seems that The Fisher group and the Fisher group are destined to be together.” The manager concluded.

Myrna smiled at everyone and looked at her watch. “It’s about time. He should have arrived. Enjoy your meal. I’m leaving now.”

Then she turned to Edna and said, “Edna, go to the cashier’s desk and pay the bill for them. If they want to add any food or wine, ask the manager to report to you tomorrow.”

“Yes, Miss Fisher.” Edna agreed and walked out of the room with her.

Seeing the two of them leave, I heaved a long sigh of relief. It was close to see Edmund again. Fortunately, he didn’t come in.
