My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

"Do you really take me for a stud? I remember that I also had a dubious relationship with your husband. Didn\'t you see that news report? We have finally come out of the closet!" Sensing that Belinda was pissed off, Edward thought that their repartee had become more interesting. However, as he finished speaking, he felt a cold stare drilling holes into the back of his head. Well, it wouldn\'t intimidate him.

"You want to come out, then that\'s your own business. Don\'t involve me in it, " Duke finally aired his complaint when he heard Edward mention him. He didn\'t know what else Edward would say to disgrace him. Duke had to put an end to this conversation.

"Oh, really? Duke, you are such a wet blanket. Justin, let\'s go inside and find your Mommy." Edward flashed him a sly smile. He wondered if the couple would quarrel after he left. Who cared, anyway. He was not the one who started this.

"Duke, it surprises me that you have such habits." Belinda gnashed her teeth, glaring at Duke. Although she knew it was a trap set up by Edward, she couldn\'t help but fall into it.

"What! You really believe him? Wow. I don\'t know what to say to you if you really think that. Women are so gullible." Duke rolled his eyes. This was what Edward wanted. That scheming meddler! He intentionally slandered Duke to provoke a fight between them. What a manipulative man!

"Oh, so now you want to badmouth women? We women certainly have more self-respect than you do." Belinda was angry at Duke\'s remarks. She detested anything that implied sexism or gender discrimination. Duke was dead meat now.

uld you be scared?" Edward took out the necklace from his coat pocket and gently clasped it around her neck.

"No, I\'m not scared, because it\'s you. Ah! What is that? It feels cold. Edward, are you putting a snake on me?" The thought of a slippery snake made her flesh crawl.

"Yes, it\'s a snake. Don\'t open your eyes, or it will bite you." Edward warned her. Was she afraid of a snake? He thought she was afraid of nothing.

"Edward, can\'t we negotiate? Can you take this thing off me? You can ask me for anything in exchange!" Snakes were not unfamiliar to Daisy. When she was getting trained for survival in the wild at JC military school, she often encountered them. However, every time she saw a snake, she got goose bumps all over her skin. She fretted that if she didn\'t kill it, it would attack her with its poison. Snakes always sent a shiver down her spine.

"Okay, you can open your eyes now." Edward smoothed her clothes and stepped back to see how the necklace looked on her. Indeed, the Ice Rain was a perfect match for her. She looked so graceful and regal wearing the necklace.

"Edward, are you sure I can open my eyes now? Why do I feel like there is still something around my neck?" Daisy squeaked, a little hesitant. She didn\'t want a snake to touch her! She didn\'t like the creature at all.

"Don\'t worry. It\'s not a snake." Edward grinned widely at the sight of her frightened look. He gently touched her on the nose, his eyes full of affection.
