Bab 324: Chapter 324: You Are A Good Man

As if reliving a bad dream, the thoughts were spinning in his head, and Stuart really needed to get himself together. He released her and rubbed his palms down Edie's arms, wincing at the red marks his fingers left behind on her flawless skin. "I hurt you! Why didn't you tell me?"

Edie shook her head and smiled. "You didn't hurt me!"

Looking at her delicate face, another surge of sadness came over him. He pulled her close and held her in his arms again. "Ever since I started working for the company, my mother and I haven't had a lot of contacts. The only time we talk is when it has something to do with work." He stopped, took a deep breath, and continued. "You ask what my mother is like. Honestly, I don't know! She has her life, and I have mine. I don't want you to worry! I don't care what she thinks of you. All that matters is that I love you."

When there was any mention of his mother, Stuart's tone was harsh and cold. "Stuart...you must love your mother?" Edie hesitated.
