Chapter 3 He Bit Her

"Ah!"

The sharp pain made Victoria's mind go blank.

When Victoria regained consciousness, Edmund had left her body, and the blood gradually smeared on her skin.

Edmund bit her!

"You go to sleep on the sofa."

Edmund's cold voice sounded.

Victoria suddenly regained consciousness.

She widened her big eyes, wanting to argue with Edmund.

However, when she met Edmund's deep and cold eyes, she shut her mouth in fright before she could say the words.

Victoria had never been a weak person who would be bullied by anyone, but she also knew when to endure.

The first time she saw Edmund, she was amazed by his appearance and also felt that this man was cold and powerful.

Such a man was very dangerous.

She couldn't afford him!

"I'll give you two seconds to get out of my bed. Otherwise, you’ll bear your own consequences.”

Edmund's cold voice without a trace of warmth sounded again.

Victoria was angry.

She gave Edmund a dissatisfied look and comforted herself.

She would forgive this man.

He was only twenty-five years old.

It was reasonable for him to have a bad temper because he was terminally ill at such a young age and would die at any moment.

"Remember, it was the last time you went to my bed, and you will sleep on this sofa from now on."

When Victoria was lying on the sofa, a thin quilt flew towards her.

"I see."

Victoria raised her delicate eyebrows proudly.

The purpose of her marrying Edmund was to save her mother. Now, her purpose had been achieved, so there was no need to cause any other trouble.

But Victoria would never swallow her anger.

One day, she would let Edmund kneel down and beg her to sleep in his bed!

That day, she would return the humiliation he caused her to suffer today!

Victoria fell asleep.

However, Edmund couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

Victoria had left the bed, but the area where she just lay down still had a faint fragrance.

This kind of fragrance made Edmund recall again and again the scene of him and the girl that night. He even wanted to throw himself on the sofa and treat Victoria like he treated the girl that night.

Damn it!

The person Edmund wanted to marry was Xenia, and Victoria was just a substitute who married him.

He had always been calm. How could he be so disturbed by this woman?

The next day, Victoria was shaken awake.

When she opened her eyes, she first saw a man wearing a brand-name suit sitting in a wheelchair. When she opened her eyes and saw the man's face clearly, she was so frightened, as if someone had strangled her neck, and she couldn't make a sound.

She had never seen such an ugly face!

The facial features of this face were completely ruined, and the skin was wrinkled and cracked, covered with red and purple acne and pockmark. If a person suddenly saw this face in the middle of the night, he would have a heart attack.

"It's only been one night, and you don't know your husband anymore?"

The man opened his mouth jokingly.

Hearing this dignified and magnetic voice, Victoria knew that this man was Edmund.

"Get up and put on these clothes."

Some clothes were thrown at Victoria.

It was bridal attire.

According to the customs of Seaside City, the bride had to wear bridal attire for three consecutive days after she got married, and the marriage was considered complete.

Victoria didn't care about the bridal attire but still stared at Edmund's terrifying face.

No wonder others said that Edmund was ugly.

He must be wearing a mask.

Often, people would show their best side to others, so many people would use makeup to beautify their faces.

But why would Edmund, who had such a handsome face, wear such an ugly mask?

As if Edmund could read minds, he said coldly, "The more secrets you know, the more dangerous you are. Remember, in this family, if you want to live a few more days, don't ask questions."

Victoria trembled.

However, when Edmund warned her like this, she wanted to know Edmund's secret even more.

"I'm not interested in you. Wear the clothes." After saying these words, Edmund turned the wheelchair and turned his back to her.

Victoria raised her eyebrows lightly and said proudly, "Don't worry, Mr. Haines. I'm not interested in you either. You are too cold, not my type."

Edmund's handsome face under the mask changed a little.

While putting on her clothes, Victoria couldn't help but look at him.

Although Edmund was aloof, he had an irresistible charm for women.

He had long legs, and his body was straight and strong. If he stood up, he would be at least 6.1 feet tall.

Last night, Victoria was dragged to the bed by Edmund with unknown things, and she never saw him standing up. Now he was sitting in a wheelchair, and he might be really disabled in the lower body.

Everyone in Seaside City knew that Edmund was a prodigy. He had been in the business world since he was thirteen years old, and he had become one of the giants in Seaside City's business world at the age of twenty. He was ruthless and decisive, and people called him Lord of Darkness.

Victoria had seen his shocking true face.

Such an astonishingly handsome man was paralyzed and had become a cripple...

Such a pity!

At this time, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged noblewoman walked in with a smile.

Victoria saw this woman last night.

She was Madge Haines, Edmund's mother.

Edmund said softly, "Mom."

Victoria was surprised to find that Edmund was not cold at all times, and his voice to Madge was gentle.

After Madge glanced at Edmund, she walked straight to Victoria.

"Victoria, why don't you sleep with my son for a while?"

Before Victoria could answer, Edmund grabbed her blouse and pulled her collar down.

"Is this the hickey left by my son on your neck?"

Madge was excited.

Victoria was shocked. It turned out that Edmund's purpose in biting her neck was to make Madge misunderstand.

"My sheets are dirty, take them away." Edmund's voice was cold.

"Yes, Mr. Haines."

The maid walked cautiously to Edmund's bedside.

A moment later, she came to Madge holding a bedsheet covered in blood spots.
