Chapter 17 The Desire to Control and Conquer
Edwin had a strong desire to control and conquer. He was also aggressive. No one could get rid of his
overbearing control once becoming his target.
With a tearing sound, her shirt was torn!
Edwin’s big hands moved across her body brazenly.
Both angry and panicked, Julianna struggled fiercely!
“Let go of… No…”
“Julianna, I know what you’re thinking! Aren’t you playing hard-to-get with me?
“Alright, I’ll satisfy you…”
The zipper of Julianna’s straight skirt was torni
Pressed against the sink, Julianna was no longer able to resist
Fear clutched at her heart.
Edwin had always been ruthless to her and would not let her mountil she completely collapsed and
yiel.l. d.
When the sheep was about to be eaten by the tiger…
There was a knock on the door.
Edwin paused for a moment.
What a bummer!
“Creak!” The door of the conference room was opened from the outside, and the clip-clop of high heels
came!
Katelyn walked in.
“Edwin, are you there?”
In an instant.
Edwin released Julianna.
“Stay here. Don’t go out!” Edwin commanded as he quickly tidied up his clothes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe walked out of the bathroom, affecting nonchalance.
“Kate, why are you here?” Edwin regained his noble and gentle look as if nothing had happened.
“I came to see you! I heard you were going to sign a contract with Julie today.
“Where’s Julie? Is she here?” Katelyn looked towards the bathroom subconsciously as she spoke.
“The contract is already done. Let’s go!” Edwin frowned and grabbed Katelyn by the shoulder.
Julianna tidied up her messy hair and walked out of the bathroom angrily.
“Edwin! You bastard!”
Why did she have to listen to Edwin?
Julianna thought Katelyn came at just the right time so she could see the true colors of Edwin, nothing
but a beast in the human dress!
Julianna’s clothes were disheveled, her eyes scarlet.
Katelyn’s face turned pale as she saw Julianna.
She instantly came to know what had happened. Her worst fears had come true!
She knew that Edwin never forgot Julianna!
“Edwin…” Katelyn tried her best to hide her resentment and pretended to know nothing.
“Si
the contract is done, let’s go!” Katelyn shook Edwin’s arm gently,
She did not want Edwin and Julianna to spend too much time together.
“Where to go?” Edwin asked.
“Edwin, didn’t we agree last night to look for a wedding dress today?”
Only then did Edwin remember. “Oh, okay. Let’s do that!”
Last night, Katelyn came to him weeping and asked if he had changed his mind.
He had been dating Katelyn fitfully for six years and did not think he could postpone their wedding any
longer!
Therefore, he proposed, almost as a reflex action!
Looking at them, Julianna felt an inexplicable pain in her heart!
Catching the flash of sorrow in her eyes, Edwin deliberately took Katelyn into his arms.
“After we settle on the wedding dress, let me show you the wedding ring. A batch of diamonds came the
day before yesterday. Let’s see if there are any that you like!”
Katelyn was overjoyed as she heard Edwin’s words.
“Really?”
Edwin looked at Katelyn lovingly, “I specially ordered a pink diamond of 24.87 carats because you’re
about to be 24 on August 7!
“I wanted to give it to you on your birthday tomorrow, but I decided to tell you now so you can be happy
earlier!
“The pink diamond is worth exactly 80 million dollars!”
Edwin intended to provoke Julianna by saying so. When they divorced, he told her he would pay her 80
million dollars as alimony.
Julianna did not accept it.
Therefore, he was going to spend 80 million dollars on the woman who stole her husband!
He did not believe that Julianna would not be sad when she heard that.
“Edwin, you’re so nice to me!” Overjoyed, Katelyn tiptoed and kissed Edwin’s face.
Julianna’s expression changed slightly. and a piercing pain crossed her heart, not for the 80 million
dollars, but because she was also 24 this year.
What was inore? Her birthday was only ten days earlier than Katelyn’s!
Since she was young, Dexter only remembered Katelyn’s birthday.
“Are you happy?”
“Yes, I am!”
Katelyn smiled sweetly at Edwin and then turned her gaze towards Julianna. “Julie, did I disturb you?
Come and attend my birthday party if you’re not busy tomorrow!”
“Sorry, I’m not available!” Julianna replied coldly.
A trace of disappointment appeared on Katelyn’s face. “Julie, dad was very angry yesterday! He almost
had a heart attack!
“Dad has been in poor health in recent years. Why don’t you go home for dinner tonight and visit him?”
Katelyn’s real intention was not to invite Julianna for dinner but to demonstrate her advantage! She
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwanted to declare her sovereignty over Edwin in front of Julianna and let Julianna know that she was
Edwin’s real wife!
“Sorry, I need to take care of my children at night!”
“Julie, we are family after all. Why don’t you let go of the past…”
Julianna pulled a long face and did not want to hear more of Katelyn’s hypocritical words!
“This is not a place for chatting. I have to start working now! If you have nothing to do, you can go!”
Edwin sneered and looked at Julianna mockingly. “Did I hear it wrongly? What right do you have to
order me to leave?”
“Go ahead then! I have to work!”
“Julie, wait a minute! I have something to tell you!”
“What?”
“Edwin, can you wait for me at the entrance?”
Edwin hesitated for three seconds, then nodded. “Alright.”
He turned and walked out of the office.
After Edwin left, Katelyn’s facial expression changed instantly, “Julianna, stay away from Edwin! I’m
warning you! Don’t try to lure him!
“If you dare to seduce Edwin again, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
“Is this what you want to say to me?” Julianna sneered.
“Eawin and I are about to get married. Stop dreaming!”
“Have you finished? Hurry up and leave the company. I’m going to work!”
Irritated by Julianna’s disdainful expression, Katelyn gritted her teeth. All of a sudden, she slapped her
face and cried, “Ah! Julie, why did you hit me?”
“What?” Julianna looked at Katelyn speechlessly.
With a sneer, Katelyn turned around and smashed her head against the wall. Instantly, a large dark
purple bump appeared on her forehead!
Then, she weakly fell to the ground, “Ah, it hurts. Julie, stop. Help!”
Hearing Katelyn’s scream, Edwin hurriedly pushed open the door and entered!
“What happened?”
