Chapter 218

Ellena ordered, "Take her to the hospital."

The bodyguard didn't act immediately, but looked at Edward.

Edward glanced at the bodyguard. "Didn't you hear what Young Madame said? Take her to the hospital!"

Ellena heard his voice and turned to look at him.

Edward lowered his eyes and sat motionless on the chair. His expressionless face was a little scary. No one could guess what he was thinking.

Ellena looked at him and wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.

In the car accident earlier, Ellena already thought that the culprit might be Naomi.

After all, the person who wanted her to die the most was Naomi.

This wasn't the first time Naomi wanted to kill her.

She could guess that Edward must have already known that Naomi was the culprit and might not let her go.

However, when she saw how Edward tortured Naomi, she still felt a chill down her spine.

Let alone Naomi, when anyone was awake, they wouldn't be able to bear the pain of having their flesh shaved off.

"Yes."

The bodyguard received Edward's order and immediately helped Naomi up from the ground and walked out. He took her to the hospital.

Paul very consciously left with them and left the room for Edward and Ellena.

The room was brightly lit and was filled with the smell of blood.

Ellena turned her head and saw a few pieces of flesh on the ground that were shaved off by the bodyguards from Naomi.

The scene was horrific.

"Urgh!"

A nauseating feeling surged and her stomach was churning. Ellena covered her mouth and bent over to retch.

Edward suddenly stood up from the chair and walked over to support Ellena. He frowned and patted her back and said in a deep voice, "Let's go out first."

Ellena was very uncomfortable and obediently followed Edward out.

Edward hugged Ellena and opened the door. At the door, he saw Cyrus who had been standing there for who knew how long.

Cyrus was dressed in a black suit with a white shirt inside. He looked gentle and refined. He had a gentle smile on his face.

In the past, Ellena not only watched Cyrus's movies but also his fans. It was because of his gentle and harmless appearance.

Looking at Cyrus like this now, Ellena felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

Cyrus's gaze swept back and forth between the two of them. He smiled and said, "Edward, I am very grateful that you let Naomi go."

His tone was as calm as before, as if nothing had happened.

Ellena frowned. Cyrus's words were clearly meant to provoke Edward.

She held Edward's hand and looked at him coldly. "Naomi will receive the punishment she deserves. This has nothing to do with whether we let her go or not."

“Ellena is right." The smile in Cyrus's eyes deepened. It was a little strange.

He suddenly changed the topic and asked her, "This is the first time you have seen Edward's way of handling things, isn't it? Although his method is a little cruel, he is doing it for you. Don't be afraid of him just because of this matter."

Cyrus’s smiling eyes were full of malice.

Before Ellena married Edward, she was just an ordinary girl.

She was a little girl who lived under the Peaceful World. Normally, the most terrifying thing she had experienced might be she hurt her fingers when she was cutting vegetables. How could she have seen such a cruel scene before? Naturally, she would be afraid of Edward.

Cyrus had interacted with Ellena so many times and thought that he knew Ellena very well.

He thought that after this matter, Ellena would definitely be afraid of Edward.

But he didn't know that in Ellena's heart, Edward was originally a vicious and ruthless man.

Therefore, no matter what Edward would do, although Ellena would be surprised, she would not be as afraid of Edward as Cyrus thought.

Perhaps she was afraid of Edward in her bones, but she would not be as afraid of Edward as Cyrus thought.

Ellena smiled and said sincerely, "Since you said that Edward did all this for me, how could I be afraid of him because of this? Instead, I’ll love him even more."

Cyrus didn't expect Ellena to answer him like this.

His expression changed slightly and he said coldly, "Is that so?"

"Of course." Ellena raised her eyebrows and looked at Cyrus provocatively.

Cyrus pursed his lips. "I'll wait and see."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Once he left, Ellena also heaved a sigh of relief and lifted her foot to continue walking forward.

However, she could not leave because the man beside her kept holding her hand.

She turned her head and found that Edward was staring at her with a burning gaze.

His eyes seemed to have been lit by two small flames.

Ellena frowned. "What's wrong?"

Edward pinched her hand. His voice was very gentle. "Say it again."

Say it again?

Ellena thought for a moment and could only say it again, "What's wrong with you?"

"The last sentence." Edward was very patient. He even looked forward to it.

"I have said so much. How do I know which one you want me to say?" When Ellena had just scolded Cyrus, she had said whatever she thought. She really did not know which sentence he wanted to hear.

Edward pursed his lips, looking a little disappointed.

However, in the next moment, Edward held Ellena's face and kissed it.

Ellena's first reaction was to think that they seemed to be in the corridor at the door of the room.

She was shy. Of course, she did not want to kiss in public.

Furthermore, she and Edward were still in a conflict.

Edward, on the other hand, didn't care about her rejection at all. He kissed her gently and domineeringly. He only let go of Ellena when his kiss made her legs weak.

He was somewhat unsatisfied. His long fingers lightly tapped Ellena's lips and he could not help pecking lightly again.

Ellena gasped for breath. When she raised her head, it was the first time she saw Edward's pair of eyes that were always as deep as ink shine. It was as if they were filled with stars and were bright and dazzling.

Ellena was a little confused as she thought, what did she say just now that made Edward so happy?

It seemed like it was.

\- How could I be afraid of him because of this?

No, it shouldn’t be this.

She had seen Edward deal with the two kidnappers, but she did not show any fear of him. Edward's reaction was nothing special. It was definitely not because of this.

She seemed to have said something else after that.

Ellena realized what she had said before and felt very shy.

She was born to be protective of others. She would always side with her beloved people, even if they did something wrong.

So, no matter what conflict she had with Edward, she could blame him and ignore him, but she wouldn’t allow others to speak ill of him.
