Chapter 20 No better than a dog
Jane thinks of this period of time from start to now. Edwin Carter’s those words, Edwin Carter does not like women is not impossible. The whole evening and the next two days, whenever she becomes free, she would think about this question, she was so absorbed that she did not hear the cell phone ringing for half a day.
Katelyn Max came over and knocked on her desk. "Jane, your mobile phone was ringing for so long. Why don’t you answer it?"
Jane grabbed the cell phone and looked at it. Three incoming calls all from Edwin Carter.
She bit her lip and dialed back. He answered the phone but did not speak. It seemed he was waiting for her to speak first.
She scratched her head and said cautiously, "I was just busy. I didn’t hear the phone ringing. Is there anything?"
After a long silence, Edwin Carter’s deep and sexy voice slowly sounded: "Okay, I will call my wife after work."
Jane smiled in silence, "Well, I see."
Edwin Carter has returned from his business trip. He wanted to tell her that he is back. He wanted to see his sudden expression, so he didn’t tell her at call.
Sienna Henry knocked at the door and came in: "Chairman Edwin, Shengtian headquarters building in Jiangbei will be completed next month. It will become a new landmark for Jiangbei City and even of Asia as well. The news that you are in Jiangbei has also spread. The people who want to see you have already made an appointment for the last three months. I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to have a leisure time these days.
"When have I been idle these years?" Edwin Carter said to Sienna Henry. Suddenly he thought of something and asked, "I just passed by and heard someone talking about 500 yuan?"
Edwin Carter usually do not care about gossip, but just inadvertently heard Jane’s name, so just casually ask a question.
Sienna Henry smiled and said, "Recently, the company arranged for employees a trip to go to Bihai Villa for vacation. We bet and put 500 yuan that you will join us. I still have to thank Jane. She took you there and we won several hundred." Sienna added.
Edwin Carter’s face under his Golden Mirror Frame sank instantly. He attended the event Jane for 500 yuan. For Jane 500 yuan is more important than him!
Knowing that Edwin Carter didn’t like the truth, Sienna Henry added, "Chairman Edwin, you didn’t take part in this activity before, this time you did because of Jane."
Edwin Carter looked at Sienna Henry gloomily. "Don’t want to leave work early?"
Sienna Henry quickly slipped away.
All afternoon Edwin had a gloomy face. Without saying a word, he was thinking about why he was not as important as 500 yuan.
...
Jane did not know that Edwin Carter has come back when return home she only prepared a one-person meal and her dog’s food. While they were eating, Edwin Carter opened the door and came in.
When he looked at her, Jane had a meal in her mouth and a bone for Mia in her hand. The picture of her and a dog were very warm and harmonious. Edwin Carter looked at them coldly and said nothing.
Jane quickly swallowed the meal and explained, "I didn’t know you were back, that’s why I didn’t wait for you."
Edwin Carter changed his shoes and did not say anything.
Jane was embarrassed and didn’t know what to say, Mia suddenly jumped to Edwin Carter and shouted at him.
Edwin Carter’s face becomes even straighter, he frowned at the dog who was sitting on the ground. Seeing Edwin Carter’s face, she felt the dangerous breath she immediately grabbed Mia back to her arms and held her in her arms: "That is Edwin Carter. It’s ok."
Laura Ferdinand wants to go to the United States to meet John Alex, so Jane has to take Mia home to take care of him.
Edwin Carter Facial expressions have changed. It seemed that he was really annoyed. If he hadn’t had good manners, he would have thrown that puppy out.
However, he did not say anything, went to the bathroom and took a bath, and then went into the study and didn’t came out.
Jane guessed that Edwin Carter didn’t not like Mia, she cannot help but hold Mia tight: "Mia, Uncle Edwin does not seem to like you, what should your mother do now?"
It seemed Mia had also felt that she whined twice. Briefly patting Mia’s head she said: "Mia, don’t be afraid. Mom won’t leave you. Tomorrow your mother will take you to Aunt Laura’s house and wait for her to come home. Mia continuously whine a few times, she rubbed her head on Jane’s face twice. She is a clever baby.
Looking at Mia, Jane feels very distressed.
She took Mia when she came to Jiangbei three years ago. At that time, Mia was seriously injured and almost killed. It was Jane who took her to the animal’s hospital in time to save her life. After that, she kept Mia with her. Her feelings for this pet are just like that of her own child.
Before Edwin Carter, at her every date she brings Mia with her, it was just on her date with Edwin that she didn’t carry Mia with her, and it happened to marry him.
If she had known that he could not accept Mia, maybe she would not have agreed to his proposal.
However, now that marriage is a fact, she can’t break up with Edwin Carter just because of Mia.
Thinking of it Jane picks up the mobile phone sends a message to Edwin: "Edwin, I didn’t discuss this matter of carrying Mia to home, I am sorry! But you can rest assured that I won’t bring her here in the future."
After typing these words Jane read them several times and felt that there was no problem. Then she clicked on Send. After sending out the message, there was a feeling like stone sinking in water but Edwin Carter just ignored her message.
Jane made a bowl of noodles for him and takes it to him. He wanted to have a good talk with him, but he didn’t look up at her. Jane swallow back all the words she wanted to say, smile awkwardly and came back.
Although there is no emotional basis for their marriage, she also promised to go with him with a good life attitude. She did not want to end the marriage with Edwin Carter because of her pet.
Tossing and turning all night, Jane got up early the next day and get ready to send Mia back to Laura Ferdinand’s home and decided she will accompany her after work.
When she came to the restaurant with Mia in her arms, Edwin Carter was already sitting there, he looked up at her and asked her to sit down. Jane sat opposite to him, and after a while, he heard him saying, "Jane, do you like money?"
Jane didn’t understand why he suddenly asked this, she blinked her eyes and nodded honestly: "Of course I like it."
Edwin Carter took out a diamond card and handed it to her: "This card is unlimited. You take it and use it whenever you want."
Jane after realizing his intentions hold Mia tighter: "No matter how much money, I will not sell it."
