Chapter 568 Big Mistake
Edward only felt inexplicably powerless, and he dropped his hand as if he understood.
Elena looked at his appearance and wordlessly withdrew her hand hidden under the quilt and clenched it into a fist.
"Heh......
"
He pulled at the corners of his mouth, sarcastic.
Elena took a deep breath, "Edward, before, I knew you existed, I just couldn't accept you, my life, the whole twenty years of my life without your presence, and not even hint of my father's love, so instead of looking forward to it, I just surrendered it myself... ..." Edward looked at her, his lips fluttering slightly.
She continued to smile and spoke, "But, since contact with you, the very beginning, I even sprouted the idea that you are really good, and then later...... you completely overturned my change of view of you, so that I once again hate you, but also fear you." She couldn't deny the blood in their bones was thicker than water, but she was equally unable to acknowledge Edward's twisted love for Joanna for herself.
That is something that simply cannot exist on this earth!
Edward clenched his teeth, the teeth seem to be difficult to squeeze out a sentence, "But I just want you to stay by my side, the other I have nothing else to ask for, let alone try to hope for anything!"
"No, you don't just want me to stay by your side, you even want to make me your property and not be allowed to have contact with any outsiders, let alone be with any outsiders!" "I don't have......"
Edward wanted to deny it, but when he lifted his face, he met Elena's warm, cold eyes.
"No?" She asked.
The other side fell silent for a moment.
Elena looked at him and let out a low laugh, "If not, then how does Logan explain it? Why did you obstruct us in every way and even have me imprisoned!" "Elena......"
"That's enough!" She parted her face, her trembling hands all hidden under the quilt, and the emotions on her face were not visible to anyone, "I'm tired and don't want to go on." "Elena, let me explain."
Edward also wanted to say something, Elena has lifted the quilt to cover his whole body, like a turtle hiding in his shell, isolated himself from everyone in the outside world.
His figure swayed, in the end, he withdrew his eyes and imperceptible sigh, then wordlessly exited the ward......
As he walked out of the ward, he met Roger, who had returned from returning the baby to the nursery.
The two men looked at each other and Edward pulled the corners of his mouth raw, "Got a minute? Let's have a drink."
Roger hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Good."
Inside the restaurant, Edward went straight to the front desk and picked up the wine he had stored and went into the booth and opened it directly and poured it for himself and Roger. A glass of strong wine down, the whole stomach is on fire.
He threw back his head and laughed, his eyes full of sarcasm, "Roger, when do you think we haven't had a good drink together?"
"It's been a long...... time," he responded softly, "at least it should be half a year."
Since that time when they went abroad together for surgery he met Elena by chance, and after that too everything started to change.
He thought countless times that he should not have called on him, if not himself, maybe Elena would never have met him.
But Logan also reassured him that this has nothing to do with him, the paper is ultimately unable to cover the fire, the leak, sooner or later there will be a leak of that day, no one can stop.
"Huh......"
Edward ate and laughed, could not help but remember the past, a burst of emotion, "you and I before how close ah, the same disease, like two brothers, but do not know when it began to change, you walk your path, I also carry out my own ideas ......" Everything was changing constantly, only they didn't notice it, until the gap between grew bigger and bigger, and the distance grew farther and farther before they snapped awake.
But at that time, both of them were standing on the other side of the cliff looking out at each other, never to return.
"Roger, you don't know how much I envy you and don't know how much I hate you!" Edward was drunk and confused and talked a lot.
Roger remained slowly sipping his drink as he said, "I know."
The most important issue between them now is almost tied to Elena ......
"Elena, my daughter!" Edward patted his chest, red-eyed, "I spent most of my life mourning Joanna, so I didn't even know I had a daughter in this world, so I missed out on twenty years, and let her leave me for twenty years too.......
He recalled that he didn't know how happy he was when he learned of Elena's existence, and then when he saw that one face that looked exactly like Joanna's.
The world is too wonderful, God took away his Joanna, but returned an identical Elena with Joanna .......
That made him feel ridiculous himself, wondering if this God was punishing him or making up for him.
Roger looked sideways at the man who was already lying on the table holding a bottle of wine.
Xu because of the mood so that the drunk extra fast, that a face is even more red, the corner of the eye tears also followed unconsciously slipped down.
"Roger, I have just one daughter, I have been looking forward to this for more than twenty years, finally I know I am not alone in this world, and finally I know I don't need to feel lonely anymore, but why is the world still as cruel to me as ever! He didn't know that when he heard that the 'Dad' that came out of Elena's mouth was not calling him, he wanted to kill the man in front of him!
But he couldn't, and didn't dare, and even less willing to give up!
Roger fell silent and inexplicably took pity on the man in front of him.
He looked at him, and indescribable emotions kept surging in his chest, taking over all his thoughts.
A long time before he spoke again, "Edward, in fact, you're right, wrong in that you care too much, also wrong in that Elena looks too much like Joanna want to try to put all of Joanna's feelings on her body."
She's just Elena, not Joanna, and she's not obligated to go through all this for Joanna!
Edward muddled through, repeating over and over, "Am I right?"
"Hmm." He nodded, and the words of regret followed and spat out, "The mistake is that you just used the wrong method ......"
"Heh...... hahahaha......"
Edward smiled, his face wiped away the sadness, "In the end, I was wrong......"
He was dead wrong, dead wrong!
