Without waiting for Edward Anderson to respond, Kallie hung up the phone.
She knew how to play hard to get too. Edward didn't want to see her, so she wouldn't show up in front of him. Edward wanted her to find another man, so she would find Tariq Lane.
Wouldn't it be interesting if she ended up with Edward's brother-in-law?
Regardless, their entanglements were deep, and neither could leave the other.
That night, Edward was troubled and sleepless.
So much so that the next morning, Cecelia Anderson was startled when she saw Edward. He looked haggard, with bloodshot eyes and stubble on his face, a picture of decay.
"Brother, didn't you sleep last night?" Cecelia asked with concern, having never seen Edward like this before.
"I'm fine," Edward said, his expression distant.
Just then, Bella Scott came downstairs. Seeing Edward's haggard appearance, she couldn't help but look at him more intently. Strangely, Edward avoided her gaze.
