Chapter 501: Who Are You Calling Aunt (part two)

"Edward, why does it seem like I'm in the tiger's lair right now? Are you going to sell me here?" Leena wrinkled her nose, looking playful and lovely.

Yes, I had this idea earlier. Since you bring it up, I'll reconsider it now. I wonder if someone will offer a good price. I don't want to make a loss in doing business." Edward lifted the fragrant tea that the waiter had just served and took a sip, looking contemplative.

Never mind, forget it. I'm not angry. I really don't care about it. I'll go along with it as if I'm doing it for charity. I won't die for the sake of entertaining someone else anyway." Leena fiercely ate the snacks in front of her and bit them hard. She looked as if she were biting Edward's head instead of the snacks. Edward smiled gracefully at Leena's actions. There was deep fondness on his face. He occasionally glanced at the direction of the entrance with a carefree look on his face. Time passed by as they teased each other and enjoyed their delicious meal. They didn't look like they were waiting for someone. Instead, their intimate behavior made them look more like a couple in love. They caught the woman's attention as soon as she entered. Her eyes brightened at the sight. Then she grinned wickedly.

"Oh! Isn't it Mr. Mu? Wow! You have a different woman with you today. It wasn't long ago that you showed your love for Daisy in public. Things change so quickly. The true nature of men never changes." Yakira smirked. But as soon as she noticed the necklace, her smile froze and her face became pale.

Edward, it's you! What a coincidence to see you here! Where have you been lately? I haven't seen you around. I missed you so much!" Mary greeted with a flushed face. She didn't expect to see Edward here. The pleasant surprise excited her a lot. As soon as Mary finished talking, Leena couldn't hold back the urge to laugh and spit out the water she just drank.

"Oh! Please excuse my rudeness. You may continue." Leena's beautiful face turned red from choking on her drink. She was shocked by Mary's pretentious remarks and affected voice. She missed Edward? Who did she think she was? Had she looked in the mirror lately? Leena didn't find anything wrong with being a little pretentious and acting lovely. But this woman was too old to do that, and it was disgusting. No wonder Edward told her to eat something beforehand. It turned out he was right. How could Edward stomach such a disgusting woman? Wasn't he worried that he would throw up what he just ate?

"Be careful and drink slowly. Nobody is going to take away your drink." Edward ignored the newcomers and anxiously rubbed Leena's back with concern.

I know nobody will take it away. I just found something amusing, that's all." Leena took a sip of water and recovered from the small accident. She was taken aback by Mary's stunning remarks and choked on her drink. What an unlucky day.

Do you mind us sitting here?" Although Yakira was reluctant to sit with them at the same table, she was curious why the necklace would appear on Leena's neck. She clearly remembered giving it to Paul. Was it just a coincidence or was it possible that there was another similar necklace in existence?

Yes! Edward, all the other tables are occupied. We're acquaintances. How about sharing a table together?" Before Edward could reply, Mary helped herself and sat down. The suggestion was more of a statement than a request.

Whatever. We're finished eating our meal anyway, so we don't need to worry about losing our appetite at the sight of some unpleasant things." Edward sneered. He actually meant to let them sit down. But when he spoke, it sounded a little different.

Yakira frowned. If not for the necklace, she would have turned around and left at his words. But she really wanted to know where they got the necklace. She had no choice but to suppress her anger and sit down.

"Wow! What a beautiful necklace! But it doesn't seem to fit this young lady. The necklace has a luxurious and dignified look." Mary's compliment about the necklace was from the bottom of her heart. But remembering Edward's intimate actions with Leena, she got jealous and pouted. She tried to slander Leena's good temperament. She firmly believed that Leena was Edward's new girlfriend. Assuming that Leena did not come from a noble family because she looked very innocent, Mary insulted her without any scruples.

Oh! Aunt, I share the same view as you. I told Edward that my temperament is not suitable for such classic and graceful antique necklace. I don't know what's wrong with him today. He made me wear it and said that I look perfect with the necklace. Don't you think he was just bullshitting me?"

Leena smiled sweetly at Mary. She cleverly scorned Mary and blamed Edward in her response. She acted like the innocent girl that Mary thought to be, and pretended not to know anything.

Who are you calling aunt?" Mary was pissed off. She wondered where Edward had found this hateful woman. Leena indeed looked young, but she wasn't young enough to call Mary aunt! The only possibility was that Leena was playing a trick and pretending to be a weak pig luring the tiger to fall into a trap. Leena was not as innocent as she had thought. Otherwise, she wouldn't have implied that Mary was old.

Um... Sorry. Edward, did I say something wrong?" Leena stuck out her tongue and acted like an innocent child who made a mistake. In truth, she was very proud of herself. Mary dared to say that Leena's temperament was not fit for the necklace and even went as far as to say that Leena failed to show off the luxurious and dignified property of the jewelry. Although she found it to be true, it was really humiliating for her to have Mary say it in front of her face. According to Leena's personality, she would seize every chance to avenge herself. An eye for eye, a tooth for tooth. If she didn't upset Mary enough to make her explode today, she would be ashamed of herself.

For this question, it's better to confirm with Miss Ouyang herself. I'm not sure of her age. I don't know if it's more appropriate to call her big sister, or aunt." Edward smiled lightly. He knew it was impossible for Leena not to say anything. He decided to let nature take its course. There was nothing wrong with it. The process wasn't important, he only needed to reach his goals.

Edward, that's not fair. Why are you also mocking me? Mary acted coquettishly, looking at Edward's handsome face obsessively. Her obsession with Edward grew every time she saw him. She was more determined to win him over.
