Mr. Edwards' Unraveled Life chapter 34

Chapter 34The sudden ringing of the phone seemed to bring a strange calm to the tense moment.

Kevin got off Norah, his eyes still filled with desire. He remembered that the man she loved was Anthony. He couldn’t bring himself to take away something so precious from her. Taking a deep breath, he tried to control his emotions. He glanced at the phone, saw the name on the screen, muted it, and slipped it into his pocket.

Regaining his composure, Kevin spoke in a low, raspy voice, “I’m going to take a shower.”

He then headed to the bathroom, and soon, the sound of running water filled the room.

Norah lay quietly on the bed, feeling a deep sense of loss. Kevin had managed to restrain himself, wanting to save his virginity for Bianca. Though he hadn’t said it outright, Norah knew the caller was Bianca; she had seen the name on the screen.

Even under the influence of the drug, Kevin’s self-control showed how much he loved Bianca.

Norah slowly sat up, adjusted her clothes, and got out of bed. She caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror, looking haggard, lost, and a bit disgusted.
