Scandals
One Hour Twenty Minutes

"Why are you still crying?" Edgar asked a little joltfully, because from the moment they got out of the boutique until now they were in his sister's car and kept crying. Edgar was upset not because he felt noisy with Lara's cry, but he was not strong to see the woman cry and it felt like he wanted to hug Lara right now.

At Edgar's jolt instead of stopping crying, Lara just sobbed with tears and snot that came out simultaneously.

"Ed don't be yelled at!" Julia protested while looking at Lara, looking at her future sister-in-law who was sitting in the back passenger seat. "Lara are you okay?"

Lara doesn't care about Julia's question. He still cried for whatever reason, but clearly his heart was upset and angry because after the incident he almost fell earlier, he said, Lara sees the heart-breaking scene where Edgar and Julia kiss as she exits the dressing room, sending her tears back down.

"I'll just take a cab home." Lara was about to open the car door.

"Dare to get out, you know the consequences!" Edgar stared intently at Lara through the rearview mirror and without much word stepped on the gas pedal so that Lara had no chance to get out of her car.

Julia herself just kept quiet to see the increasingly strange attitude of Edgar and Lara. The two of them were like lovers fighting. But the thought was immediately dismissed because it was impossible for a brother and sister to be in love.

"Ed let's take your sister home first." Because Julia still wants to spend her time with Edgar.

Edgar is silent and does not answer Julia's words, and during the journey no one opens a voice between them until the car carrying the three reaches a luxury apartment where Julia lives.

"Ed why—"

"Down!" Cut Edgar quickly.

"But Ed..."

"I said get off!" Jerky Edgar.

Julia would not want to get out of the car because she did not want Edgar to get angry. And now she can only stare at the car of her future husband away from sight.

"Now you may treat me as you please, but after we get married I will bring you to your knees." Julia is upset when she recalls the incident when she kissed Edgar by force, but the kiss must end because Lara appeared suddenly.

"Move ahead!" edgar said without looking at Lara.

"No way." Lara is still angry, especially when Edgar suddenly runs his car when he wants to get out by taxi.

"I said move in front of Lara Collins!" Edgar tried to be patient by lowering his tone.

Lara would not want to move to the front sitting next to Edgar. And the car went back to running at a normal speed like never before that speeding up until Lara was scared to death.

"Why stop here?" Lara remembered very well the tall building where their car stopped at this time was the man's apartment.

"Down!"

"But kak—"

"Quick down!" Edgar got out of the car and opened the door for Lara.

The two also walked to the floor where Edgar's unit was located, with all their thoughts and desires. Edgar who held back his desire to hug Lara since they were in the car earlier or even since almost a week ago, and Lara who was afraid something happened between them because she knew very well how perverted an Edgar Collins.

And sure enough Lara's guess, because just the door of the apartment closed Edgar immediately hugged his body tightly until he had difficulty moving.

"So out!" Lara said with a sigh, and held back her thundering heartbeat from the embrace.

"Let it be like this first." Edgar clenched his arms, smelling the fragrance he had long missed.

Yes, Edgar admitted he missed Lara so much. Missing his own brother, it's ridiculous. But that's how Edgar Collins feels now after almost a week he has held back from keeping his distance from Lara.
