Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife Chapter 423 – Moments

“That was beautiful, I’ve missed you.” Whispered Edward

“I haven’t missed you.”​​

“I guess we would have to do something about that won’t we, Gu Zhou?”

“He is at a friend’s house.”

“Good, because I am about to make you scream.”

And Edward proceeded to do just that, all night long. By the time they were done, the sun was already peeking out at them and Amy was very sore and exhausted.

If she had the strength, she would have kicked him out of her bed but she didn’t, so she let him spoon her.

A smile on her face as she slept off. Later that day, they both woke up around past eleven, their bodies still sore but rested a bit.

Edward grabbed Amy before she could leave the bed and turned her to face him. His fingers brush against her soft skin, his eyes zoning in on the stitch mark from where the knife cut had been sewn.

He gently brushed his fingertips against it then bent down to kiss it.

“I made a terrible mistake letting you go Amy.” Edward started saying but she put her fingers over his lips.

Amy shook her head; she was not ready to hear those words said again because she knew. She knew deep in her heart that if he said it, she would be forced to acknowledge the truth that she had come to realize over the weeks they had been apart.

Edward removed her hands from his lips and smiled at her.

“I made a mistake and I have come to rectify it.”

“I am not good for you Edward; I am too weak to live in your world.”

“No, don’t say that. You are the strongest part of my world Amy Lee; without you my entire world would collapse.”

“You’re just saying that to make me feel good.”

Edward sat up and took her with him, the light from the windows playing on their bodies.

“I hardly say thing I don’t mean Amy, that is not my way and you know it.”

Amy didn’t want to believe him; she didn’t know why she was fighting him either.

“I love you; I will always love you Amy and I am going to keep saying it until you believe me.”

She couldn’t hold the tears anymore, Amy started crying. Edward didn’t try to stop her, he just held her against him and allowed her get it all out.

She cried for what seemed like hours but was only five minutes before the raking stopped. She looked up at Edward with her swollen red eyes and tear stained face, to him she couldn’t have looked anymore beautiful.

“I love you too, Edward.”

He was a bit taken back by her words; he hadn’t expected her to say them back. In fact, he had been prepared just incase she never said the words back to him. To hear those words from her was a bit overwhelming. 

Edward brought her face closer and gently c.a.r.e.s.sed her lips with his own. They stayed locked together like that until the ringing of the doorbell drew them apart.

“Are you expecting someone?” he asked.

“It’s Gu. He has a key, but the ringing of the doorbell first is a new rule.”

Edward kissed her one last time before he left the bed and went to her bathroom to clean up. Amy stood up too and pulled her robe back on then left the room to go and greet her brother.

“Good morning sister ,” greeted Gu Zhou.

“How was your sleepover?”

“Ronnie made us play zombie wars, it was pretty scary.”

“That’s nice.”

Amy went to the fridge to get ingredients to make breakfast, she knew Gu Zhou would have eaten, but she needed something to do.

Edward was going to show up soon anyways and from their activities the previous night and early this morning she was sure he would be very hungry.

“Is Edward around?” asked Gu Zhou.

“What makes you ask?”

“Well, I saw his car in the driveway and you’re still in your bathrobe. This scene kind of feels like deja vu.”

“You are spot on there, little buddy.”

Amy glared at Edward when he entered the kitchen all dressed up like he had just come from a business meeting.

“How are you doing?”

Edward placed a kiss on Amy’s neck and went to take a seat beside Gu Zhou.

“Excited to finally be on holidays but Amy is thinking about sending me to summer school.”

“Why is that?”

Edward looked at Amy.

“Is the best decision she said, “He needs the extra grades.”

“I worked hard all year, you promised we could go on vacation this summer.”

“There is the Christmas break, work even harder.”

“Come on babe, give the kid a break.”

Amy glared again at Edward.

“This is not up for discussion; you go put your things away.” She pointed at Gu Zhou with the spatula in her hands.

The kid stood up, grumbling as he walked away with his backpack slung over his shoulder.

“You, stop meddling.”

“He deserves a break after everything he has been through Amy.”

“We don’t have money for a vacation Edward, until I find a new job, I can’t afford the extra spending.”

“You could always have your old job back.”

“That’s just me looking desperate Edward.”

Edward stood up and went to stand behind Amy, linking his hands together around her. He kissed her behind the neck again and just stood silent for a few seconds.

“I have missed your skills at the office, you should see the mess Holly is making trying to cover up for you.”

“Now, you’re just patronizing.”

Edward chuckled and turned her to face him. This woman was absolutely difficult.

“I’m serious, come back to work Amy. Please.”

She pouted.

“I’ll think about it. In the meantime, sit your b.u.t.t down while I make you breakfast.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

He placed a long, wet kiss on her lips before going to do as he had been told.
