The President’s Stubborn Love

As she watched Edward walk out of the lift with Sherry in tow, Flair’s beautiful eyes hid murderous intent and jealousy.

“Flair, is that woman the one you were talking about last time Sherry’s? She’s not really hooked up with Edward, is she!” The one who spoke was Scarlett, perennially cuddling up to Flair’s ass, in fact, all for the sake of her own company’s business.

They know that Edward is brilliant and would love to go out with him, but they also know how much they have and that their family background is absolutely impossible for the Colin family to see.

But …

They had both seen Edward’s attitude first hand and Flair’s complete wishful thinking.

And to top it all off, Edward didn’t go with any of the ladies either, but actually picked a woman with a criminal record who’d been in jail!

Flair couldn’t swallow it and turned back to Scarlett with a harsh and arrogant warning, “Anyone who speaks out about what happened today will be out of Seattle.”

“Flair, where are you going?” Scarlett asked concerned, but a hint of sarcasm swept across her face as she watched Flair walk away and whispered, “You guys just go fight, it’s stupid for a guy like that.”

Flair goes home and tells her parents that Edward has a woman and must stay with Edward.

“Flair, are you sure Edward has a crush on you?” Mrs. Abbott was a little concerned that this daughter of her own was, I fear, spoiled by her.

Her father is not at home at the moment and Mrs. Abbott can’t make up her mind.

“Of course! He was just concerned about the Garcia Family engagement before and now he thinks I’ve given up on him so … so he’s afraid to show his heart, and I’m absolutely confident that I can get him to stay with me, but I need you guys to help me.”

Flair is a lovestruck girl, but is still sober enough to know that with the Abbott Family’s strength, it’s impossible to ask Edward to come to the door and befriend her, and that’s okay, she can take the initiative.

Mrs. Abbott finally relented, “There’s a tea party the day after tomorrow, maybe Mrs. Colin will come, I’ll sound her out then.”

“That’s great, Mum, I’ll do my best, if I can get married into the Colin Family, our family will be soaring.”

Mrs. Abbott smiled and took her hand, “As long as you’re happy, Mum doesn’t expect any of that.”

At this time, Mrs. Abbott had no idea that the Abbott Family would be torn apart in the future by this bad decision.

…

After meeting Flair, Sherry’s thoughts become even more confused.

She was taken by Edward to an upmarket residential area where, in front of her, he forced her hand, changed the fingerprint code and set only one.

“The password has been cleared by me, no one can open it except you, you can rest assured.” When he finished, he looked at her with a silent, waiting gaze.

As if he was sure of Sherry’s reaction, he saw her eyebrows relax as she reached for the combination-locked door.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Mr. Edward, is it always this generous with women?”

The way she addressed him made Edward frown.

“I’ve just said that material conditions are only one of my strengths.”

If he had said that in a different tone of voice, it would definitely have come across as a bit of an egomaniac, but Sherry was in the house and she got the full sense that Edward was not joking.

She is not a young girl starting out in society anymore, and such conditions are real and very impressive.

If a few more years pass, she really doesn’t know if she will still be able to meet a suitor in such an outstanding condition, after all Edward has talent, face and money.

Apart from the fact that, she knew nothing about his past, she really couldn’t fault the man.

Is this, then, enough?

Sherry looked down and fiddled with the floor lamp switch, not sure what else to say.

“Starting tomorrow, you’ll be assigned a driver to take you near the office, not to interfere with your work, just for safety and convenience.” He said, pulling another phone out of his coat pocket and dropping it on the desk.

The dim light of the floor lamp enveloped the side of his face.

“This phone, you take it and use it, and you can call me anytime.”

So saying, his tall figure took a half step back, “Then you rest first, I’ll go.”

After that, without hesitation, steps out the door and closes it, followed by the movement of the car leaving outside.

Sherry switched on and off the light, letting the pitch blackness gradually consume her soul.

It would be a lie to say that I am not impressed.

She just wanted to know where their relationship would have gone if she hadn’t come to Seattle and had such a dinner with him, and would this phone of his, have fallen into Flair’s hands?

Late at night, Sherry washed her face and turned on that phone anyway.

There was only one number, and it was of course his.

“Do I have any room to think about it?”

She typed these few words and quickly deleted them again, turned off the brightness of her phone screen and drifted under the covers to fall asleep.

And at that moment, Edward sat in his car and got through to his assistant Amelia.

“Recent movements there are unknown, but it seems that they are looking for someone connected to Beinean’s birth, and perhaps, the Garcia Family is looking for someone to take the place of the aborted child so that Beinean can get the idea to live.”

“Who’s looking?”

“Miller, it’s not clear that Jair knows about this yet.” Amelia continued.

“Keep staring.” Edward’s gaze glanced coldly out the window.

The night was thick, hiding a touch of ruthlessness under the man’s eyes, just for a moment, too fast to catch.

A random woman can be married into the Colin Family? Heh, that’s ridiculous.

Miller was very secretive when he sent his men out to get information, and that’s how Edward’s men got hold of them; no one else had any idea what the Garcia Family was about to do.

For the next while, Sherry continued to work and leave work.

It’s not much different except for the additional Tim as the exclusive driver.

“Miss. Sherry, are you working late tonight?”

It was almost time to leave work when Tim sent a message.

Sherry had reports on hand that she hadn’t sorted out, so she quickly replied, “Yes, you don’t have to wait for me.”

Tim didn’t reply again, but by the time Sherry walked out of the building, Tim was waiting outside with an umbrella.

Because Sherry is afraid of gossip from the company, she gets off at a distance every time. Today it was raining before Tim came to pick up a bit.

“Please.”

“No trouble, as it should be.” Tim opens the umbrella on his side.

But before they could leave, they heard a few employees talking behind them.

“What’s that to her? Looks quite old, can’t be a boyfriend!”

“A boyfriend that old must be very rich.”

These are disgusting words.

Tim’s face sank and if it weren’t for Sherry, he would have gone over to them to argue.

“Tim, I’m sorry.”

Sherry said guiltily.

Tim shook his head, “I’m old, it’s okay, it’s just, Miss. Sherry do you mind?”

Tim found Sherry to be introverted and quiet, but so organized that he occasionally felt that she was a carbon copy of Edward, only without the Colin Family background.

Sherry laughed bitterly, “In a sense, they weren’t wrong.”

She always remembers her place.

Everything she enjoys now, she got from Edward, though, an unspoken relationship.
