Chapter 48 When he saw the person getting out of the car , Edmund's pupils contracted sharply . Woodrow ! At this moment , a fine drizzle had already begun to fall from the sky . When Woodrow got out of the car , he brought an umbrella with him . He opened it and strode over to Kaneeta , holding the umbrella over her head . AN " Sorry , " he said , " there was a bit of traffic on the way , so I'm late . "" Kaneeta was also surprised . " You're the one picking me up ? " Why did Atticus send Mr. Hartwell to pick her up ? Such a trivial matter … It really was too much trouble for him . But Woodrow didn't seem the least bit bothered by the inconvenience . He simply said to her , " Get in the car . " "Neeta ! " Chapter 48 Edmund was still sitting in his car , staring at the two of them intently . " Aren't you getting in ? " Of course , Kaneeta couldn't possibly get into Edmund's car , so she smiled at Woodrow . " Then I'll trouble you , Mr. Hartwell . " In fact , her smile was a very polite one , but in Edmund's eyes , it looked especially charming . It even stung his eyes . Kaneeta … How could she show that kind of smile to another man ! Even if she wanted to anger him , she shouldn't do something like this ! Woodrow held the umbrella and walked with Kaneeta toward his car . Edmund wanted to get out and pull Kaneeta over , but he felt that would be too humiliating , so he could only remain seated in his car and shout at Kaneeta , "Neeta , I'm telling you one last time , come here ! " But Kaneeta completely ignored him . After Woodrow opened the car door , she got in without the slightest hesitation . Chapter 48 Edmund felt a rush of blood surge to his head . Kaneeta actually dared to get into another man's car right in front of him ! Kaneeta , well done- This time , he absolutely won't forgive her so easily ! Meanwhile , Woodrow closed the umbrella . Before getting into the car , he glanced in Edmund's direction . In that glance , there seemed to be a strong warning . How ridiculous ! He was Kaneeta's husband … Even though their marriage certificate was fake for now , one day it would become real ! What right did Woodrow have to warn him ? Woodrow had already gotten into the car , and as the car drove away , Edmund remained rigidly seated in his own car , his face dark , saying nothing . The driver in front , seeing him like this in the rearview mirror , didn't dare say a word or start the car . Suddenly , the phone rang . Edmund snapped back to his senses Chapter 48 and saw that it was a call from Lila . " Mom . " " Well ? Did you pick up Neeta ? " Lila asked . " … Don't bother with her anymore , " Edmund said coldly . " We've spoiled her too much , and now she's completely out of control . I shouldn't have come to pick her up today . Maybe … " Maybe if he waited a few more days , she would come to him on her own . But now , she was feeling triumphant again . " Sigh … Neeta was never like this before . What's gotten into her now … Ed , when Nya gets out of the detention center , let's just send her abroad . " " No way ! " Edmund objected immediately . " Mom , could you really bear to let her go ? " " Of course I can't bear it , but you two , you and your sister …" " Besides , her abusive ex - husband is still abroad . That's a psychological shadow for her . If you send her overseas again , isn't that just rubbing salt in her wound ? " " What did you say ? " Lila's tone suddenly changed . " Abusive ex- Chapter 48 husband ? "
