THE HEIR'S BEDMATE
Chapters. 45. Niece?
Time passed by so quickly, it didn't feel like today was the fourth weekend Laura lived in Edward's luxury penthouse.
His relationship with Edward also went on as usual, almost every night they spent traveling to the top.
Every time he did that activity, Laura's mind did not stop apologizing to the woman on Edward's phone.
The girl actually wanted to refuse, but she was reminded of the money the man had given her to redeem her orphanage certificate. With half a heart Laura also fulfilled her duty, giving keua*san to Edward.
And in the morning, Laura never forgot to take a pregnancy-preventing drug.
Weekend, Laura should be going home. But the monthly guest who came this morning, made him undo his intentions.
Every time the moon came, he would definitely feel lazy to do something. Because of the pain that attacks his lower abdomen.
“Baby, I made you warm ginger water.” Edward entered the room with a cup.
He put it on the nightstand next to Laura. Because the girl didn't get out of bed.
“Thanks, Ed.”
The man kissed Laura. “I want to take a shower first. Jo's making breakfast. We will have breakfast together.”
Moments after Edward disappeared behind the locker room door, the phone next to the ginger water cup was clinking. Marking a message has been received.
Laura turned to the phone, and she knew that the smart flat object belonged to Edward. Because the girl had replaced her phone's soft case with army green.
Curiosity led Laura to grab the phone. He pressed the Power button located on the right side of the phone.
Degs…
“Are you not home today?”
“Devano is waiting for you, he said you guys will be riding today?”
“Are you not awake yet?”
Three messages he read on the phone screen without unlocking the phone.
“Felisha?” Murmured Laura.
“What is that woman named Felisha? And Devano? Is that his son's name?”
Laura looked back at the locked phone screen. The phone's lock screen is still the same, featuring an adult woman smiling with a boy.
Laura took a deep breath, then threw it away violently.
He put the phone back in its place.
“Remember, lest you fall in love with her, Laura.”
Almost 30 minutes later, the locker room door opened. Featuring Edward who was ready with his casual clothes.
Laura gave a smile to the man.
Edward approached and grabbed his phone which was on the nightstand. His eyebrows almost fused after reading the messages from Felisha.
‘How can I forget, if today I promise to take Devano on horseback?’
“Baby,.”
He also put something on his cell phone. Then blend into his pants pocket.
“Sorry today I cannot accompany you at home.” The man sat himself on the edge of the bed. Then grabbed Laura's hand that was clinging to her thigh.
“Is there any important work?” Laura pretended not to know what the man was reading on his phone.
“Yes, baby. I forgot, if today I have an appointment with— ”, Edward paused for a moment. It seems like now is not the right time for him to tell this girl. Because his life story is so long.
“Who's with, Ed? What's with your wife?” Laura chuckled as she said that.
Degs…
“No, baby. I have an appointment with—,” he feels a little doubt. “I have an appointment with my nephew.” Edward tried to smile at the end of his speech, he felt a little nervous.
‘Nephew?’
“Really? You have a nephew?”
Edward nodded his head small. “Before we get married later, I will introduce you to my family, baby.” The man said quickly, then kissed Laura's hand gently. Trying to shift the conversation so that Laura did not ask much.
‘You don't have to bother, Ed. I don't want to know your family either.’
“Let's go down for breakfast.” The man helped Laura to get out of bed.
Edward and Laura went down the stairs hand in hand. Arriving at the dining room, there was already seen Johan who was arranging breakfast at the dining table.
“Good morning, sir Jo.” Laura said kindly.
“Good morning, miss. Is miss better?” Ask Johan worried. He knows what if a woman is coming on the moon, because Monica often complains to him.
“Still sir Jo, it's my first day.”
“Sit, Ara. Let me get you your breakfast.
Johan who saw that squinted his eyes. Is this really his boss??
“Jo?” Edward breaks Johan's daydream.
“Iya, boss?”
“You didn't have breakfast?” Edward asked who saw his assistant just shut up.
“Jo, today I have business. You call Monica, have her come with Ara.” Said Edward at his breakfast.
“Who's Monica?” Ask Laura.
“He's my secretary, Ara.”
“And also my lover, miss.” Johan said proudly. Somehow he always wanted to boast of his lover in front of Laura, so that the girl did not feel that she had feelings for Edward.
“No need to bother, Ed. Mbak Monica definitely needs a holiday too.” Refuse Laura subtly. “After all here is Mr. Jo accompanying me.” Say again.
“No. I won't let you be alone with Johan. Anyway, Monica has to come here.” Said Edward firmly.
“Hah” Laura throw her breath rough.
‘I forgot if you don't like hearing rejection, Mr. Hugo.’
“Sure, boss. After this I will contact Monica.” Said Johan, so that the atmosphere does not heat up.
*******
The sturdy body of the gallant pus, disappeared behind the entrance of the penthouse. Laura just silently stared in the middle room looking at Edward's shadow that was getting away.
A 35-year-old man has so many secrets. To ask just one thing, Laura did not get the answer.
Maybe it was because he was just the guy's bedmate, so Edward didn't want Laura to know more about him.
“Nona?”
Johan's cry broke the young girl's daydream. He turned his body and slowly approached Johan.
“This I made turmeric boiled water. I've mixed honey too, so it doesn't taste too bitter.” Johan handed a cup to Laura.
The girl gladly accepted it. “Thank you Jo sir. Let's sit there.” Laura pointed at the living room.
“But miss—,” Johan feels bad if Edward knows.
“No objection sir Jo. After all, the authoritarian master is not here.”
‘She's not here, miss, but her eyes are fixed in every corner of the room.’
With doubt Johan followed the girl. He chose to sit on a single sofa, so as not to aggravate the atmosphere.
“Pak Jo, know where about menstruating women are from?” Ask the girl while sipping her warm drink. His eyes closed as he felt the bitter taste of turmeric.
“From Monica. He also experienced the same thing with miss, if it comes months.”
Laura nodded her head. Suddenly he remembered something.
“Pak Jo, can I ask you something?”
“About what miss?” Johan leaned over a little with his hands resting on the edge of the sofa.
“Hmm, it.. Did Edward used to have nightmares?”
Degs…
Johan gasped at Laura's question. He was confused as to what to answer. Because he had sworn to Edward would not tell Edward's personal problems to others.
‘Boat, Jo. If you won't tell my personal problems that you know to others. Even if it's my own family.’
‘I swear boss. On behalf of my late mother, I will not tell anyone about your problems.’
“I don't know, miss.” Said the man casually. She did not want to look nervous in front of Laura.
