You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 112

After Edric drove Monica out, she called Irene, "The person drove me out."

Irene had expected that Edric would kick Monica out. That night, she was merely using this method to disgust him. Hearing Monica's words, Irene smiled at the thought of Edric being furious. Edric had mysophobia, so he would have a hard time sleeping that night, right?

Irene was gloating in her heart when Maisy came to knock on the door. "Irene, someone called just now and said that something had happened to your uncle. He asked you to go and have a look quickly!"

When Irene heard that, she picked up her purse and ran out immediately. When Irene was about to hail a taxi by the road, a car suddenly rushed out and stopped in front of her.

Seeing Edric, Irene instantly realized that she was fooled. Under Edric's gaze, she got on the car. Edric stared at her sinisterly for a few minutes before hissing, "Irene, how dare you?!"

"Why did you say that, Mr. Myers?" Irene looked at him fearlessly.

"Pretending to be a fool, huh? Great!" Edric gnashed his teeth in anger. Did she think that if he put him on her blacklist, then he wouldn't have a way to find her? Dream on! He handed Irene a phone and said, "I got this for you. You must keep it turned on for 24 hours!"

"Thank you! Actually, you don't have to come here personally. You can ask your executive assistant to send it to me." Irene took the phone and put it in her purse.

"Do you think I came to look for you just to give you that phone?" Edric mocked.

"Otherwise?" Irene looked at Edric coldly. "Today is my mother's death anniversary. Are you really going to do such a thing on this kind of occasion?"

Edric was stunned for a moment. Was it Myra's death anniversary? D*mn it! He had forgotten about it! "I..." He didn't know what to say for a moment.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Irene's mouth. "I'll keep the phone on for twenty-four hours a day once I return. You can give me an order or errand anytime, but today is an exception!" She opened the door and got off the car after saying that.

Edric looked at her back, his heart twitched uncomfortably. When Irene met him before, her eyes were cold, but they never harbored any hatred towards him. However, he didn't know when she started to look at him with disgust. Edric leaned back on the seat and carefully recalled the time he had spent with her. Irene's hatred for him seemed to have started since his engagement with Lily.

Edric couldn't help but think of their phone call that night. Irene said that she didn't want him to be engaged to Lily, and she would consider getting back together with him if he chose to turn away from Lily. It must be because of his ruthlessness and indifference that she started to hate him so much.

Edric sighed deeply. He deserved it! Why did he give up such a good opportunity?

The next morning, Jordan and Joanne's engagement news in Mencodia was reported by the media. When Irene left her room, she could already hear the news as Lily and Deborah talked about it loudly in the living room.

"Joanne is so beautiful and has such a good background. She matches Jordan very well in all aspects!" Lily loudly claimed as if she was scared that Irene couldn't hear her.

Irene's hand, which was holding the door handle, suddenly froze. They got engaged so soon! It was only expected for Jordan to be engaged to Joanne, but Irene's heart couldn't help missing several beats after hearing it.

Naturally, Lily and Deborah would not give up that opportunity to provoke Irene. The two continued to talk about the grand occasion of Jordan's engagement.

Irene wanted to calm herself down, but she found that she couldn't as that pair of b*tches were determined to break her heart. She opened the door and strode out.

She didn't know where she was going. She ended up wandering around aimlessly. She didn't stop until her feet started to hurt.

It was only then that she realized that she had come out of the house empty-handed. She touched her pocket and found that it still had a few coins in it. God was probably helping her given her current situation.

The news of Jordan's engagement came so suddenly; Edric just learned about it too. After hearing Jordan's engagement, he felt so much relieved.

Compared to Nathan, Jordan was a much stronger opponent for him. Nathan was a fine gentleman, thus he would not use any extreme means to get his hand on Irene. However, Jordan was different. He was an experienced businessman, and he wouldn't play his cards like a usual man. Irene being by his side every day meant that Irene was in danger every day.

Although a strong enemy of his had disappeared, Edric's relief only stayed for a short while. Wasn't Jordan determined to marry Irene? Why did he suddenly get engaged to Joanne? Was it because he asked Irene to become his secret lover too?

No men could accept the woman they love having sex with another man. Naturally, this included Jordan. Edric felt a little guilty as Irene's hatred towards him was probably because he separated her and Jordan.

He picked up the phone and called Irene. He wanted to ask her out, but no one answered the phone. Edric couldn't sit still, hence he went to see Irene.

After waiting around the Cook family for more than an hour, Edric finally saw Irene. She had her hands in her pockets and looked exceedingly lonely. Edric greeted her, "Irene!"

Irene looked at Edric indifferently. "What can I do for you, Mr. Myers?"

Edric reached out and took Irene's hand. "I want to talk to you."

"Spit it!" Irene replied.

"Irene, I didn't know about Eden's illness until now. I'm sorry." Edric's face was plastered with remorse. Frankly, he sounded rather sincere. However, Irene only found it extremely ironic. She would always remember the words that Edric had used to reject her that night. She would never forget it for her whole life.

"Mr. Myers, I do not need this from you. You are not anyone to me either. There is nothing for you to be sorry about," Irene said.

Looking at her indifferent expression and hearing her unkind words, Edric felt a sharp pain in his heart. "Irene, w-w-what you said the other night, were they true?"

"What do you mean?" Irene asked.

"About us getting back together," Edric answered.
