Ch. 337: Mr. Edwards’ Unraveled Life Chapter 337

Chapter 337

Kevin said, “To start a new life, you have to let go of the past. Norah is already in the past. We’ll get married when your drama is finished, and we can introduce our parents to each other. You’re already familiar with my mom, but I haven’t met your father yet. This marriage will only be complete once both our parents approve.”

“Your thoughts mean so much to me,” Bianca said quickly, hugging his arm, overwhelmed with happiness. “Kevin, thank you. I feel like the happiest woman in the world!”

She leaned against his shoulder, closing her eyes and savoring the moment. Nothing could compare to his willingness to accept her again. Her efforts had paid off.

She knew Kevin still cared for her. Norah had just been a fleeting distraction, a temporary obstacle to their love. As long as she kept showing him how much she cared, he would come back to her. Soon, she would finally be happy.

Kevin held her with one arm, the touch gentle, though his eyes remained cold.

When Bianca returned home, her mind was buzzing with excitement. Her wedding to Kevin had to be nothing short of a grand event. She couldn’t wait to tell everyone.

She quickly grabbed her phone and dialed her father. “Dad!”

There was a brief pause on the line before he chuckled. “What’s up, my baby girl? Sounds like you're having a good time today.”

“I am! Kevin and I are getting married soon,” Bianca replied as she sank onto the couch.

On the other end, her father’s tone shifted to one of disapproval. “Isn’t that the marriage you’ve been working for by trading your poison?”

“Dad, Kevin loves me!” Bianca responded confidently. “It’s not like you don’t know—if it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have gotten out of that organization. At first, he liked me, but I didn’t go abroad, which gave other women the chance to get close to him. Now I’m just taking back what’s rightfully mine!”

Her father’s voice grew more cautious. “Don’t get too comfortable.”

Bianca, lost in love, dismissed his worries. “Dad, don’t worry. Kevin and I have rekindled our relationship. He finally sees how great I am. You’ll be happy for me when you meet him. He’s even eager to meet you. It shows how much he values me!”

“Are you sure you want to meet me for your marriage?” her father asked skeptically.

“Of course!” Bianca responded firmly. “You want me to be happy, right? You’ve always said we must fight for what we want. Well, I’ve done my best this time!”

Her father’s voice softened. “Then, have you considered what will happen if the antidote from that woman isn’t found? Won’t Kevin hold a grudge?”

Bianca’s response was confident. “He doesn’t care about Norah. He wants her to kill the child. But she’s too stubborn. She’s ruining everything. I won’t let her live to ruin my relationship with Kevin—whether it’s her or her child!”

A vicious gleam appeared in her eyes as she spoke. She was confident that Kevin would choose her, not Norah.

Her father warned, “Bianca, I’ll be there for your wedding, but don’t lose yourself in all of this.”

“I know, Dad. I’ll show you how sincere Kevin is!” Bianca declared, determined. She wasn’t going to let any other woman outshine her.

In the days that followed, Kevin was practically inseparable from Bianca. They went to and from work together, and to outsiders, Kevin seemed like the perfect boyfriend—handsome, wealthy, and always considerate.

It was enough to make many people in their circle envious.

Sasha, however, couldn’t escape the gossip. She overheard rumors about Kevin and Bianca’s relationship at a recent event. News outlets were already writing about how Kevin was completely captivated by Bianca.

Sasha was devastated. The news felt worse than being overshadowed by Bianca.

“Don’t look at it,” Norah said, taking Sasha’s phone from her hand. “A single glance won’t change anything.”

Sasha sighed. “You can look at it, if you want.”

Norah sat down next to her, munching on fruit. “I’m not focused on that anymore. All I care about is the child in my belly. As for the rest, I don’t need to waste my energy. Oh, and we’re wrapping up our drama soon. We’ll see the results.”

“You really believe that?” Sasha asked. “I think you still love him.”

“Love doesn’t define my entire life,” Norah replied with a smile. “I can’t just keep loving someone like that.”

Sasha couldn’t understand. It felt like good things were slipping through their fingers, taken by people who didn’t deserve them.

Norah leaned back in the rocking chair, letting it slowly rock her back and forth. “Don’t worry. I’ll still fight when the time comes. Bianca won’t have it all her way.”

She’d let go of her hopes for a future with Kevin, but she wouldn’t let Bianca win so easily.

Three months later, the drama wrapped up.

On the day of the celebration, Nellie raised her glass and clinked it with Norah’s. “I’m so happy it’s finished! I want to thank you. Without you, we couldn’t have wrapped it up so quickly. You’re my lucky star!”

Norah smiled. “No need to thank me. Just make sure to pay me what I’m owed.”

“You lost money? Don’t worry, if I make a profit, you won’t be left out!” Nellie assured her.

The script had been written by Nellie, but Norah had put in plenty of work, too.

Norah casually said, “The money I make is for my child. If you’re good to him, you’ll see some benefits, and you’ll take care of him when the time comes.”

“What a silly thing to say!” Nellie teased. “You’re not even bringing your own child here. Are you expecting us to raise him? You’re jinxing things.”

Norah just smiled, not bothering to reply.

“Drink up! We’re celebrating today, so let’s get drunk and have some fun!” Emani cheered, getting everyone in the mood.

“Alright, let’s go crazy today,” Sasha said, filling her glass. “It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this happy.”

“I can’t believe I’m making Sasha appreciate her face for the first time!” someone joked.

Everyone chatted, drank, and danced joyfully.

Later, after the drinks had taken their toll, Nellie, perhaps tipsy, clung to Norah, tears in her eyes, praising Norah for being her lucky star and her good luck charm.

Norah was helpless, but it was clear Nellie was feeling sentimental.

Sasha, feeling a bit tipsy, walked out onto the balcony for some fresh air.

A few minutes later, Tanan appeared with a cup of hot tea. “Ms. Gibson, drink this. It’ll help with the headache.”

Sasha looked at him, her gaze a bit unfocused. He smiled at her, his dimples showing, his eyes bright and playful. He was undeniably handsome.

“You’re really taking care of me?” Sasha grinned, stepping toward him. “You’re not just doing this because we worked together once, right?”

Tanan froze for a moment, surprised by her forwardness. “I...”

“What?” she teased.

Before Tanan could respond, Nellie’s voice rang out in anger. “No way! The subject matter isn’t limited, so why can’t our drama be on TV?”

Her outburst caught everyone’s attention, and suddenly, the mood shifted.

They all listened as Nellie vented her frustration over their drama being blocked from airing. It felt like a major setback, dampening everyone’s spirits.
