Chapter 448: Ella Sleepwalks Again (Part 1)
Time goes back to last night.Edward White returned to the White Estate from the First Special District. Due to the rain on the way, his clothes were wet when he got out of the car at the estate.
The sports car wasn’t even driven back into the garage.
He rushed upstairs just like that, then dashed into the bathroom, took off the soaked suit, and enjoyed a comfortable shower.
A long time passed.
The sound of water in the bathroom finally stopped.
Edward White wrapped a white towel around his waist and walked out of the bathroom, holding a towel in his hand to dry his hair.
"Bang." Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Ella White came in carrying a glass of champagne and a fresh fruit platter.
"Ah—"
Since she didn’t knock, she walked in and bumped into Edward, who was shirtless, with the towel around his waist hanging loosely.
She was startled, and the fruit platter and champagne in her hand fell to the ground.
She staggered and fell down as well.
"Are you alright?" Edward White instinctively reached out with his large hand to pick her up from the ground... Lately, she had been normal and hadn’t been clinging to him or doing anything inappropriate.
So, he didn’t think much of it.
"Where did it hurt when you fell?" He asked with deep concern, lifting her up and placing her onto his bed.
"...I’m fine." She shook her head. Because he had been too harsh before, she didn’t dare to get close to him... Yet, he suddenly became so gentle now.
Ella’s heart started to flutter subtly again.
Perhaps she was out of her mind, suffering from amnesia, falsely assuming he was her man.
He was so warm, so handsome, and still the heir to the entire White Group, with so many women flocking to him.
It’s not that no one courted her.
In the circle, there were many rich young men, though not as handsome as her own brother, or as wildly arrogant as the Crown Prince... But there were still many men who liked Ella, quite the contrary.
She envied Carla Carr for having Alexander Kingsley.
She envied Eva Nightingale for having the Crown Prince and the President!
Speaking of it, those brothers, they were all good, her own brother was good too, but after all, they weren’t hers.
Moreover...
Ella noticed that recently, the media company under her brother had taken on some drama... now he had to deal with those actresses again.
Women dressed provocatively every day, purposely sticking to Edward White, which made Ella feel terrible inside.
Tonight, she merely came to deliver a fruit platter, but who knew she would bump into him undressed.
Her face instantly turned red.
"Brother, I’ll get you another fruit platter." She said as she got up to leave, but unexpectedly slipped again and fell.
Edward White quickly blocked her fall...
Just like that.
She landed on top of him.
And he, his wrist was cut by a shard of glass from the wine glass, hmm, the first time being injured didn’t hurt, instead... it felt hot, so hot.
Edward White’s body suddenly heated up.
With his charming peach blossom eyes, he intently gazed at her, the more he looked, the less alike they seemed...
He hesitated for a moment.
He felt himself getting wet...
Because the towel around his lower body was thin.
"..." Ella felt a pain in her lower abdomen; it seemed like her period had come... hmm, it had leaked onto... his body.
What to do?
Would her brother pick her up, throw her out from here, and never speak to her again?
She had a habit of menstrual pain; at that moment, the pain was causing her forehead to be covered with beads of sweat...
