The moment she left, George suddenly called out to her, “Mom.”
“Hm?”
“You won’t leave me behind again, right?”
It seemed like he was now traumatized.
She said, “Of course.”
No matter who she left behind, it would never be him.

With that, Jeanne closed the door.
It was getting late. Although she had slept all day and was not sleepy, she should return to the room.
When she was at the door to Edward’s room, she still felt a little unsettled.
However, she gritted her teeth and pushed open the door, only to see that Edward had returned to the room. He had even showered and was lying on the huge bed, reading a book.
Jeanne frowned. ‘Wasn’t he watching TV downstairs?’
Now, they were in a closed room again…
She quietly composed herself and walked straight into the bathroom.
Edward looked at Jeanne, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile.
She did not take too long in the shower today, probably because she did not feel as conflicted as she was last night.
She came out wearing a set of reserved pajamas, climbed into Edward’s bed, and sat beside him. They were not too far away from each other.
Edward glanced at her as she took out her phone and started going through some of the messages on it.
Then, he turned around and focused his attention back on the book.
Suddenly, the two of them looked like an old couple who had lived together for many years. The scene looked very harmonious.
Jeanne was not sleepy and did not want to disturb Edward’s reading. That was why she sat beside him and looked at her phone.
There were some messages from her project team staff congratulating her.
She replied “thank you” to them one by one.
After that, she opened the news app.
She had not looked at her phone since yesterday, so she did not know how big of a thing Edward and her wedding was.
Her eyes moved when she saw the headline, [Rows of Cars Filled With Flowers — Jeannie, My Heart!]
The big headline was obviously about their wedding.
She took a deep breath, adjusted her somewhat uncontrollable emotions, and clicked open the content, which was a detailed description of the wedding.
Her eyes were fixed on the spectacular scenery of the vehicles outside her house to pick her up. Seeing an aerial photo of it, it really did take her aback.
It turned out that was what Monica meant when she said “rows of cars filled with flowers”.
Edward had really done so much for her.
At that moment, she saw hundreds of thousands of comments below, all of them filled with the words “jealousy”, “envy”, and “hate”.
From what she experienced yesterday, she could tell that the wedding was grand. However, when she saw a picture of the rows of cars filled with flowers, she was shocked again!
Her eyes were fixed on the screen. For a long time, she was so immersed in her own world that she did not even notice the man beside her was staring straight at her.
Not until…
“Is the news better looking than me?” The sudden male voice startled Jeanne.
Instinctively, Jeanne closed the news app.
“You’ve been staring at it for ten minutes now.” A certain someone sounded dissatisfied.
Jeanne pursed her lips.
Edward said, “Are you touched?”
Jeanne looked up.
Some people really were very arrogant.
She said, “No, I was calculating how much money you used.”
Speechless, Edward’s mouth twitched.
“If it were money, I might have liked it more,” Jeanne said on purpose.
“I see.” Edward nodded as if he finally understood something.
Then, he turned around and extended his long arm to the drawer beside the bed.
