Chapter 129 - Edwards Test? (1/2)

Ch-128

”Who is he?” Edward asked.

”Martin,” Myna said without batting her eyelid. She needs to do this. If not, she knows how badly it hurts for a person when their feelings aren't reciprocated. She needs to cut off the things at the roots themselves.

”What is the guarantee?” he asked.

”Eleanor can testify for you,” she said.

”Call her,” Edward said.

Edward liked Myna in the bar itself, but he never said it out loud. Because he thought that she was the same as others and never bothered about her after they met. Many things happened after the bar event.

But… Myna never showed up flashily or did anything. He became curious about her. He tried hard to find her, but he couldn't. Did he want to know if she was not that greedy like Eleanor's friends? Because he knew that all the friends Eleanor made were beautiful plastic faces. Which he loathes to his core! But despite his attraction towards her, he tried to ignore her.

But now seeing her working here, he was surprised. For real he was surprised, and his positive opinions on her vanished just like that. He wondered if she was using Eleanor. He tried to test her in the name of love. But… she surprised him again saying that she loved Martin. Then does that mean…. She was here for him? But he can't trust her. He needs a person who can convince him thoroughly. But Myna was his sister-in-law's best friend; he can't be rash.

Since she said so confidently, then she should prove her innocence. But Edward overlooked the fact that he was being too nosy. Whether she was using Eleanor or not... was none of his business. It should be Cedric and Eleanor's business. He failed to realize that he was putting his finger too much to the point that he was irritated to the point that he didn't want to see her.

[Then why the hell did you say you love her?] his heart asked him.

[I am testing her.] Edward said.

[You shouldn't poke your nose in her business.] his brain said.

[What do you mean?] he asked.

[This is none of your business! This is Cedric or Eleanor's business.] his brain asked.

[they are my friends. Of course, I will not let them get hurt.] Edward reasoned.

[Why I am not satisfied with your words?] his brain commented.

[Shut up! You both!] he yelled.

[But you can't deny the fact that she looked beautiful.] His heart commented.

[Oh… please… You all know I always praise beauty and just like that… I praised her simply.] he replied.

”Fuck!” Suddenly Edward heard Myna's curse.

”My bag!” she uttered these words through her gritted teeth and knocked her head like an idiot.

”Dammit! I left it in the lab! And the chief won't be back in another three hours! Dammit! I didn't check the call for the past three days! She would strangle me! Myna…. Myna…. What did you do?” Myna was immersed in her self blame. She forgot the existence of Edward.

Edward: ”...”

Edward felt a black crow was flying on his head. How could she forget his existence? She was so…. What word would suit her! Edward, come on think! Rude?! Yes! So rude of her to forget his existence! How dare she!

”How shall I call her? Damn! Martin moved! I only got to know that pervert Cedric sent his casanova friend Edward. But who will inform my Elle!” Myna couldn't help but say her thoughts aloud as she forgot the existence of Edward.

Edward clenched his hand hard. His knuckles turned white. 'This woman! She is getting on my nerves!' he couldn't help but think.

”I shall call her using some of the guards' phones! That looks like a good idea! Hmmm… Myna you are smart!” she praised herself and even patted her shoulder proudly.

Turning around she got the biggest shock of her life.

Myna: ”!!!!!”

The word shock was written on her face clearly! Oh, My God! He was still there!

Myna composed herself and cleared her throat. ”What are you doing here?” Myna asked.

”WHAT!?!” Edward couldn't help but scream at her.
