Of the Edwin Williams stories I have ever read, perhaps the most impressive one is The CEO’s Surrogate Wife. The story is too good, leaving me with many doubts. Currently, the manga has been translated to Chapter 862 Threats. Let's read the author's The CEO’s Surrogate Wife Edwin Williams story right here.
"You know very well what I'm talking about. Why are you lying to yourself? She is not good enough for you. You can tell at a glance that she's a perverted woman. Don't be deceived by her weak appearance. She's just acting in front of you."
John doesn't know why he says so ruthlessly. Obviously, he won't utter such words to ridicule others.
"I just want you to save her. And you just whisper to her not to die. Then it's fine. Is it that difficult?"
Anson doesn't expect John to be even colder and more heartless than he has imagined.
"I've told you that I won't. If you're capable, you can take other measures yourself. Don't come here to interfere with my life." John insists. He speaks indifferently. And no emotion can be heard in his tone. It seems that he doesn't want to provide any help.
Miya will die without John's help.
But now, John turns down Anson's request categorically. He yields neither to persuasion nor to coercion.
At this moment, Rory walks over to the courtyard carrying a basket of fruits. Immediately, it occurs to Anson that this girl seems to be close to John. And probably, she is someone very important to John.
Then this gives Anson an idea. He rushes to Rory. It is the last way to save Miya...
It is too late when John reacts. Rory has been held hostage by Anson.
"John, she's very important to you, isn’t she? If you don't want her to get hurt, then you go to save Miya. It's just an easy work. Why aren't you willing to do that?"
"Get off of her, now!" John goggles at Anson with eyes full of flames of fury. Soon, John is about to go crazy. He can't bear someone threatens him with the person he cares.
However, he has a terrible headache just as he is about to charge forward. Periodically, John suffers from a serious headache. Every time the headache attacks, he feels that his entire body is to explode. John rubs his temples with his hands and then kneels on the ground in pain. It is too painful that he can't move at all. Anson is very surprised at this scene.
Rory, who is held hostage by Anson, becomes even more nervous.
"Let go of my hand. Hurry up! He needs my help. Otherwise, he'll die of a headache."
Anson is stunned. Does John have such a severe headache?
"Didn't you just ask him to save someone? How can he save the person you care about if you don't let go of me to save him now? Please, let go of me." Rory sheds tears when she begs Anson bitterly.
However, Anson then has no choice but to believe her. He lets go of Rory who dashes over to John. Rory asks with concern, "How is it? Are you OK? I'll get some pills for you right away. I'll ask the director to cure you."
However, John stands up unscathed suddenly. He crosses his arms with eyes fixed on Anson, "How is that? You lose. What else you can threaten me with?"
Finally, Anson keels down to John and begs him.
"John, I beg you. I'd like to owe you a favor if you can save Miya. I just ask you to help me with this. Then I will do anything you ask."
Anson turns incoherent. The fact that Miya is in danger worries him. Miya will most likely die if John doesn't go to save her.
However, Rory looks at John worriedly, "Why are you pretending to be injured since you don't have a headache? Don't you know that I worry about you?"
Rory cries again. She doesn't get out of the anxiety before.
"How can I get you free if I don't do it like that?" John explains fondly and patiently to Rory.
"But he doesn't look like a bad man. He just wants you to save a person. Why don't you help him?" Seeing Anson kneeling in front, Rory can't help but say good words for him.
"Have you forgotten what he says just now? He threatens me with you. Stop putting a good word for him." Rory's behavior puzzles John somewhat.
But Rory just shakes her head, "Indeed, I know the reason why he says so is that he wants you to offer help. If you help him, I think he won't be like this."
