During the day, Edward had tried sending Macie another friend request, but it was immediately blocked. <fn1146> This text is hosted at find?novel</fn1146>


    He couldn’t even send a message.


    “Macie, you’d better never show up again!” Edward muttered through gritted teeth.


    When he got home, Sharon had already prepared dinner, eagerly setting the table for him.


    When Edward saw her wearing Macie’s clothes and apron, something inside him snapped. He stormed over and tore the clothes off her with brute force. 1


    At first, Sharon thought that Edward was finally making a move, even if it was a rough one. She didn’t mind. But she quickly realized she was wrong. 1


    As Sharon tried to lean into him, Edward shoved her to the ground.


    “Who said you could wear her clothes or use her things?” Edward yelled.


    Sharon was terrified, tears streaming down her face as she looked up at him, her voice trembling with


    hurt.


    “What’s wrong with you? Why are you treating me like this? I’ve worn Macie’s clothes before, and <b>you </b>never said anything. Why are you so angry today?”


    Seeing her cry, Edward suddenly came to his senses. He helped her up but immediately let go, his expression conflicted.


    “I’m just really angry at Macie right now. I’m sorry. I took it out on you,” Edward murmured.


    Sharon breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought that he was forbidding her from touching Macie’s things, but it turned out he was just venting his anger.


    “I’m sorry, Edward. I understand. I won’t wear her things again,” Sharon said apologetically as she reached to take his hand.


    “Don’t think about Macie anymore, okay? Let’s eat. I can be here for you too. I’ll always be with you.


    Before she could finish her attempt to seduce him, Edward stepped back and pulled his hand away. Sharon caught off bnce, stumbled, and nearly fell again.


    “Go to bed early. Don’t bother with unnecessary things. If you have time to cook, start packing. I’ve already rented a ce for you,” Edward said emotionlessly. 1


    With that, Edward turned and walked into the master bedroom, mming the door behind him.


    Sharon clenched her fists at the dining table, her nails digging into her palms. The apron was torn, and her sleeve ripped. Although she had hoped to seduce Edward, he had pushed her away without a second


    thought.


    Sharon med it all on Macie. Edward would never have fallen for her if it weren’t for thetter’s interference.


    Sharon wanted to smash the pot on the table, but in the end, she quietly cleaned up and put everything back in the kitchen.


    Late at night, Edward woke up repeatedly from restless dreams. After getting up to use the bathroom, he found himself inexplicably drawn to the guest room.


    The bed was bare, stripped of everything except the mattress. Hey down on <b>it</b><b>, </b>curling up on his side, but no matter how much he tried to breathe in, there was no trace of Macie’s scent left.


    He missed Macie. (1


    The next morning, Edward jumped up from the mattress when he realized where he was. The version of him fromst night, who was confused and vulnerable, felt like apletely different person.


    Edward remembered how he had entered the room and smelled the mattress and air like a fool. He felt infuriated and humiliated.


    Then, Edward hurriedly washed up, got dressed, and rushed out of the house, his heart racing and his ears burning.


    He sensed that this wasn’t normal. He felt like he was losing his mind. He didn’t know why he had slept in Macie’s room.


    And then there was that thought, the one that had yed on repeat in his mind before he finally fell asleep.


    He had longed for Macie.


    Edward inwardly cursed himself. Indeed, he was going crazy.
