Ch. 321: Mr. Edwards’ Unraveled Life Chapter 321

Chapter 321

Levi glared at Frank. "You're unbelievable! I treated you like a brother, and this is how you repay me!"

Frank wasn’t backing down. "Same here!"

With no other option, Levi turned to Norah, offering a forced smile. "Madam, I'm sorry. I wasn’t careful. I didn’t mean for any of this to happen. It's all my fault!"

Norah responded coldly, "I think you did it on purpose."

"How could that be? I’m a good soldier, always serving the people!" Levi protested, standing stiffly and saluting.

"Then why are you here?" Norah asked, her expression darkening.

Levi paused, then tugged at Frank. "Let’s have dinner," he suggested.

Frank eagerly agreed, "Yes, we came here to eat."

Norah’s expression grew colder. "The restaurant is small, yet I didn’t see you two. You were eating, and then you ran to the back kitchen? And even broke things?" She paused, her voice stern. "Aren’t you causing trouble for other people?"

The two men fell silent.

"Did Kevin send you to follow me?" Norah continued, her gaze sharp. "What exactly does he want?"

The two hesitated, unsure of what to say.

"Where is Kevin?" Norah pressed.

"Captain Edwards isn’t here," Levi replied. "We’re here to protect you."

Norah scoffed. "It’s good if you don’t cause more trouble."

The men stayed quiet, offering no response.

"I'm divorced from Captain Edwards. What protection do I need?" Norah said coldly. "What’s his plan? Does he want everyone to think he's some kind of good guy, still caring for his ex-wife? Does his current wife agree with this?"

No matter how much Norah ridiculed him, Kevin couldn’t hear her, so she didn’t waste her breath.

"Take me to see him," Norah demanded.

The two men couldn’t refuse.

They all knew that after Kevin’s divorce from Norah, no one could understand the pain and helplessness he was going through.

They didn’t want their relationship to be like this.

But there was nothing Norah could do.

Some things couldn’t be said.

She had already said enough the last time! She just wanted to wake Kevin up, tell him to stop pretending.

It seemed she hadn’t been harsh enough.

This time, she intended to make sure he understood—no more trouble from him in the future!

Before leaving, she said goodbye to Steven and Jace. She immediately got into their military vehicle and headed toward Kevin’s residence.

Her apartment was quite far from the villa. But to her surprise, Kevin lived nearby. It only took them about ten minutes to get there.

Kevin had the means to acquire properties in this area, so it wasn’t surprising that he owned a place here.

However, there were no servants.

Apart from a few soldiers, the place was eerily quiet.

Norah stepped out of the car, her anger growing. Without a word, she marched into the villa, her steps fast and determined.

Frank and Levi followed closely behind, worried. If they were discovered this time, there would definitely be consequences. They’d be stuck with late-night training, no escape.

The front door was open. Norah pushed it further and shouted, "Kevin!"

The room was empty.

The place was luxuriously decorated but felt like it had never been lived in.

Norah didn’t care. She moved toward the stairs, her voice loud as she called out, "Kevin, come out! Don’t think I won’t come after you if you hide! You had someone follow me, and now you’ve disrupted my life. What’s the point of this? Is it that hard to be clear with both sides? If you send someone after me again, I’ll call the police!"

On the second floor, she spotted a half-open door.

Kevin had to be inside.

Norah rolled up her sleeves, her expression cold, and pushed open the door. "Kevin, stop being a coward! Why can’t you just be honest…?"

She froze in the doorway when she saw Kevin lying on the floor.

He was sprawled out in a mess of wine bottles, a half-empty bottle still in his hand.

It was clear that Kevin had been drinking all day.

Norah’s anger flared, and she had already prepared herself to confront him, to tear into him with harsh words. She wanted to tear down his ego.

But the scene before her was not what she had imagined.

Looking at the drunk Kevin, Norah couldn’t bring herself to say anything sharp.

Kevin couldn’t hear her, but she couldn’t understand why he’d drunk himself into this state.

Hadn’t he moved on with Bianca and Mimi?

Hadn’t he gotten rid of her?

He had tricked her, which probably fed his pride. He should have been happy, so why was he so miserable?

This was a side of him she had never seen—his helplessness, frustration, and pain, all laid bare.

Norah’s fist tightened, and a rush of mixed emotions flooded her. She hadn’t planned on arguing with him, so she turned to leave the room.

But just as she was about to exit, she heard a faint voice.

"Norah."

It was hoarse and low.

Norah paused, frowning, and didn’t intend to look back.

"Norah…"

She was almost out the door when Kevin called her again.

Now, Norah was torn. She hesitated, then turned back to face him.
