Edward Anderson looked back at Charles White, his voice slow yet powerful, "Some people and things, once missed, are gone forever. No one will wait for you. Don't forget, you are now Elyssa's husband, and Bella is my wife. Do you think you still have the right to covet Bella? If Bella knew you had designs on her, wouldn't she despise you? After all, she hates men who change their minds so easily, and you are becoming the very kind of person she despises."
Charles White was left speechless.
Edward Anderson's words were rational and struck to the heart.
Charles had had chances before. Bella never concealed her feelings for him, but he fell into the embrace of Elyssa, captivated by her. After marrying Elyssa, he couldn't stop thinking about Bella; he would sleep beside one woman while longing for another. This was an emotional affair, and how was he different from the scumbags Bella hated?
