Suddenly Married!
The Hidden Past

Warm feelings spread throughout Anna's body, when she heard Edgar's statement that sounded very sincere.

If Edgar asks Anna to always be by his side then Anna will gladly do so. Being next to the man she loved was a great joy in Anna's life.

"Src ...!"

The cold of the night wind was getting piercing the skin, Anna cursed herself who was wearing a short dress on her knees. His legs trembled, even his mouth spewing smoke as he exhaled on that cold night.

"stand. We have to get inside the house because the weather outside is getting colder."

Anna received a helping hand from Edgar that helped her stand up. Because the air was too cold, Anna felt her legs cramp slightly so much that it hurt when forced to stand.

"Akh!"

Not yet had time to stand upright, Anna returned to her sitting position because she could not hold her legs were cramping and numb.

"I won't let you out in a short dress anymore! See it? You can't even stand up properly because of the cold!"

Although Edgar commented on Anna scathingly, his attitude was inversely proportional to his speech. Within seconds, Dominic's eldest son was holding Anna ala bridal style and making the person in his trunk surprised.

Not playing! Edgar was able to carry Anna without complaining in the slightest! Anna's body does look tiny, but her weight is more than 50 Kg, heavy enough to be carried by others.

Entering the house, Edgar dropped Anna down on the sofa in the middle room where the heating was installed.

"Wait here, I'll make you some hot chocolate."

"Also blanket. I need it to warm my feet."

Anna had thought that Edgar would make her coffee that way, but luckily not. Recalling the incident where Anna was facing Edgar in her room, Anna was unable to help but laugh.

At that time Anna had bad thoughts about the man who would become her married partner and expressed his thoughts directly in front of Edgar. However, the man Anna had talked about turned out to be Edgar himself. How humiliating!

Meanwhile, as long as Anna was still waiting for Edgar's arrival who was making hot chocolate, Kevin appeared out of nowhere and sat on the same sofa as Anna.

"I think the world is cramped, my neighbor will soon be my sister-in-law."

"Sorry, Professor. May I ask?"

Although Anna doesn't like Kevin much, Anna has to be polite to him because he's Edgar's cousin.

Without waiting for an answer from Kevin, Anna expressed her thoughts openly about Kevin's relationship with the Dominic family when their clan is not the same.

"If Professor is Edgar's cousin, why is your clan different?"

In the end the question that made Anna curious was uttered from her mouth.

"That's because Dominic's surname is my mother. She is the older sister of Uncle William. The Rowman clan I'm wearing is my father's clan. But, they were both dead by the time I sat in High School."

That's why Kevin lives alone in an abandoned house next to Florence's residence. Immediately Anna felt guilty for being rude to the man.

"Is Edgar being rude when you're both? For example, biting your lips while kissing?"

Blushes. Anna's face reddened like a boiled crab after hearing a shocking question from Kevin's mouth. How did Kevin know that? Is he a psychic? All sorts of questions popped into Anna's head.

"T-sometimes he's like that .. ahemm."

Being too embarrassed, Anna answered Kevin's question a little nervously without making eye contact.

You idiot! I shouldn't have to answer the question! rutuk Anna in heart.

After all, why would Kevin ask like that? If the man wanted to make Anna feel ashamed then he managed to do it!

"I hope you'll be okay with Edgar and accept all his flaws and past."

Without being asked, Anna would definitely accept Edgar as he was. If Edgar has any flaws then Anna will try to complete them. After all, everyone must have flaws, as well as Anna.

While Anna was still silent, Kevin again spoke with a more serious expression than before.

"Edgar had something bad in the past that left him traumatized and sick. That's why I'm begging you to help Edgar recover from his illness."

"What are you talking about?"

Coinciding with the completion of the conversation between Anna and Kevin, Edgar came up with a tray containing two hot brown glasses and a thick blanket wrapped around his neck.

"You done yet?"

"For you. Drink it to make your body feel warmer."

"You didn't make it for me?"

Both Anna and Edgar, they turned their heads toward Kevin who interrupted their affection.

"Your hands and feet are fine, so make it yourself!"

"Curtain!You're only good to a woman. Then I'll make it myself!"

Seeing the feud between Edgar and Kevin, immediately made Anna shake her head. They fight with their mouths only for trivial things. How childish!

After Kevin got off the couch, Anna pulled Edgar's hand to sit next to him. His head he deliberately rested on Edgar's shoulder while closing his eyes.

"I didn't see Mom and Dad."

"Pfft ... Did you really call them that?"

Actually, Anna was feeling a little amused and was not used to the sudden call. However, Anna would start to get used to it because soon she would become Edgar's wife.

"Don't taunt me! After all, they'll be my in-laws and I'll have to call them Father-Mothers."

"All right, I get it. They're on the balcony enjoying their favorite wine."

The harmony between Edgar's parents. Although their age is not young anymore, but they still get along and are no less romantic with a young couple. Anna was even jealous of their affection.

As Anna dissolves into her own thoughts, her mind suddenly recalls Kevin saying that Edgar is sick.

"Ed, do you have a chronic illness?"

Anna asked without making any small talk.

"No."

Such a short answer would not satisfy Anna. Honestly Anna was so curious, why did Kevin suddenly discuss Edgar and his past? What happened to Edgar in the past? There were so many questions in his head.

"By the way, I don't know what you've been in the past. Do you want to tell me?"

After asking like that, Anna could feel Edgar's jolted body. As Kevin said, it seems Edgar has a traumatic past and has not been told to Anna.

"It's late, I'll take you home."

Instead of answering, Edgar switched the conversation. Anna becomes increasingly curious about the past that Edgar is hiding. Why does he not want to tell his past?

However, if Edgar did not want to tell it then Anna would not force it. Anna will wait for Edgar to tell her past until the man is ready.

"alright. Can I keep your suit?"

"Wear it and do not return it. You can keep it to yourself."

Thank goodness Edgar was a calm person and was good at hiding feelings. Anna was worried because she had offended the man and would make him angry.

Rising from the couch, Anna follows Edgar from behind to the garage where a red sports car is parked. The car Edgar used to pick up Anna and now will drive Anna home.

During the journey, they only silent a thousand languages so that the time runs feels slower than usual. Although Edgar was calm, Anna did not know the feelings that Edgar was feeling in his heart. Upset, angry, or whatever it was, Anna had absolutely no idea.

A few minutes later, Anna and Edgar arrived in front of the Florence residence. The silence continued until Anna was about to get out of the car. However, before actually getting out of the car, Anna kissed Edgar's lips at a glance and made the man turn his head.

"Thank you for taking me home."

Anna tilted her lips in a smile and distanced herself from Edgar's body.

"Sin ...."

Hearing Edgar whispering quietly calling her name, Anna turned to face the man who was going to be her husband.

"Hm? There's ap-"

Unable to finish his words, Edgar had already pulled Anna into a soft, intoxicating kiss.

Ed, I don't know what your past is like, but I'm gonna love you all my life.
