Chapter 282
If time was reversed, Nelissa would never know when Edward had fallen in love with her, because he would never tell her that she had searched for her in Haleston City, and then waited for the night when she was in high school. She watched the lights in the corridor of the teaching building go out again and again, like the lighter in his hand. He opened and off again and again, just to burn the fear and anxiety of his master-the cigarette butt that had been abandoned in a high-sounding manner, just like he had begun to circle around the route and fall into the heart of the endless abyss before he was ready…
Maybe love happened very early. It was a pity that no one cared about it.

Edward’s faith was just yearning for Nelissa’s heart.
***
When Nelissa woke up from her dream, it was already noon. The half-open window breeze blew slowly, dispersing the dizziness in Nelissa’s head. She curled up on her side and fixed her eyes on a man’s big hand holding her little hand. It was slender and clean, and half of her snow-white cuffs covered the man’s strong wrist, inexplicably revealing her sexiness.
Only then did Nelissa realize that Edward was sitting by her bed, reading a document with one hand and caressing her skin with the other hand. They were very intimate and gentle.
Perhaps it was because she had been in a coma for the whole morning, or maybe it was because of Edward in her dream. Nelissa couldn’t tell whether it was real or if it was just a dream. She stared at Edward’s handsome side profile in a daze. Under the reflection of the afternoon sun, he was as beautiful as a dream.
“You’re awake.” Edward put down the document in his hand. His voice was very low and deep. He lowered his head, and his smiling eyes met Nelissa’s eyes, which were like glazed beads. He said dotingly, “Are you sleepy?”
Nelissa was a little sleepy. She blinked and whispered to him, “I had a dream.” She had many dreams about the past.
Edward nodded and replied with a “hmm”. He opened his thin lips and asked casually, “What dream?”
Nelissa paused for a moment. The Edward’er in front of her gradually overlapped with the Edward’er five years ago. In her dream, there wasn’t much change between him and the current him. The way he looked at her was still deep and firm, as if he had known her for a very long time… Nelissa hesitated for half a second, then shook her head and said, “I don’t remember.”
Edward rubbed Nelissa’s nose with his fingers. “It’s normal.” He smiled again. “It doesn’t seem like a good dream.”
Nelissa lowered her eyes, her heart pounding.
Edward held Nelissa’s little hand tightly and liked her obedient appearance very much. He didn’t notice that his voice was gentle for her. “Get up and eat something first. The doctor said that you slept for the whole morning. Are you tired of going out for a walk?”
Nelissa shook her head. “No.” She got up and put her slender arms on Edward’s broad shoulders. She put her face on his chest and was fascinated by his body temperature.
Nelissa knew that she couldn’t be saved and she didn’t want to be saved. In fact, she realized that there was something wrong with Edward’s feelings for her from the beginning, but she didn’t want to find out the reason behind it. As long as Edward really loved her, the process or motive didn’t matter. She was willing to be a ostrich.
Because she really loved this man very much. Sometimes, a person’s principles and bottom line were actually given up for another person.
Edward wrapped his arms around Nelissa’s slender waist and enjoyed her coquettish act. He lowered his eyes and looked at Nelissa leaning against his chest. Her thick and long eyelashes fluttered shyly, causing his heart to itch. He could not help but lower his head and kiss the corners of her eyes. He did not know where to start, but his feelings grew deeper.
Nelissa habitually raised her head, opened her lips slightly, and exhaled like an orchid.
Edward’s lips kissed her from the corners of her eyes, cheeks, and her lips. His long and slender hands lifted her sharp chin, overbearing and affectionate. They kissed each other affectionately. Even their fingers were intertwined with each other, and they were very devoted. All the love and love were in their hearts, and nothing was fake.
Nelissa’s heart was beating fast. After kissing, her lips were soft and numb, but she had to admit that she was really comfortable.
She looked up and saw Edward bending his head in a low voice. His forehead was pressed against her forehead. He had combed his bangs today, revealing his thick black eyebrows and a pair of sharp eyes. His eyes were looking straight at her from a close distance. His nearly perfect facial features were magnified in front of her eyes, which was very charming.
Nelissa felt as comfortable as she was.
Edward was in a good mood. He grabbed Nelissa’s little hand and put it in his heart. His eyes were almost obsessed. He quickly asked Nelissa, “Do you have a feeling that you like me very much?”
Nelissa’s cheeks immediately flushed, and even her lips were red. It was unknown whether it was because of the kiss. Edward had always been very straightforward in love. Nelissa’s little hand on his heart could clearly feel the hot temperature from his palm. It almost melted her heart, as if she was tempted by him. She slowly told the truth in her heart, “Yes, I like it very much.”
Nelissa didn’t know how powerful these words were for Edward. He lowered his eyes and covered his emotions with his dense eyelashes. His expression was trying to keep normal, but his heart had lost its balance and was rising and falling.
Edward couldn’t control his ecstasy. It wasn’t until this moment that he realized how many years he had been waiting for Nelissa’s words. The so-called unrestrainedness was only because he had overestimated himself in the past. He had never let go of Nelissa. In his proud heart that he didn’t want to admit it, he was still looking forward to Nelissa falling in love with him.
“I’ll say it again. I still want to hear it.” Edward’s voice was low and hoarse. His strong arms were tightly wrapped around her.
Nelissa felt a little pain in his embrace, but sweetness welled up in her heart. She knew that Edward cared about her feelings very much. He loved her, and even someone as slow as her was affected by his strong emotions. How lucky she was to have this man’s love.
Nelissa said obediently, “I like you. I like you the most. I want to be with you all the time. How hard it is to stay with you?”
“Okay, I promise you.” Edward’s voice was very low and low. His face was separated from Nelissa’s. He leaned down and leaned his forehead on Nelissa’s single shoulder, not letting Nelissa see his expression at this time.
After a while, Edward raised his head from Nelissa’s shoulder. His slender left hand slipped between his short hair and picked up the bangs. His bangs were a little long, blocking his thick black eyebrows. His sharp eyes didn’t look so sharp and domineering. He looked young and noble.
Only Nelissa could see Edward like this. Nelissa also saw that there was a faint blush at the corner of Edward’s eyes. She suddenly felt uncomfortable and gently touched his chest with her forehead to hold this man.
