Chapter 549 Wireless Phone

"Okay." They had been outside for too long, so Nancy had been cold. It was warm inside the villa, but
Nancy hadn't warmed up yet.

So she took a cup from the tea table and asked, "Edward, where is your hot water dispenser?"

Without thinking too much, Edward replied, "It's in the dining room. Come in and look for it."

"Okay." The first thing she had noticed when she entered the room was the wireless phone.

This phone should be useful, right?

Maybe she could call Charles. She just needed to keep her voice down so Edward wouldn't hear her.

Therefore, Nancy walked over quietly. But when she was about to pick up the phone, she saw Edward
running out of the kitchen like a gust of wind.

Because of what he was doing, Edward had forgotten that there was a phone in the dining room. He
just happened to notice that Nancy quieted down, so he felt strange. Then, he remembered that there
was phone in the dining room and Nancy might call Charles.

In a hurry, he turned off the fire and ran out of the kitchen. While running, he shouted, "Nancy, this
phone can't be used!"

Instead of listening to him, Nancy grabbed the phone. "Let me have a try."

However, the next second, the phone in her hand was snatched away by Edward.

"I said you can't use it, so you can't use it." His angry voice echoed in the room.

"Edward, why don't you let me call Charles? Well, even if you don't like Charles, let me call Doris,
okay? I can call my mother or my kids..." Tears fell down her face as she thought of them.



It had been a long time, and she missed them so much.

"No way!" The moment he saw Nancy's pitiful expression, Edward felt his heart ache.

"Tell me, why?" At this moment, Nancy was already on the verge of breaking down. She stood in front
of Edward with her eyes filled with tears and trembling lips, so Edward couldn't help but sigh as he
looked at her.

With a heavy heart, Edward held her in his arms and said, "Nancy, the club belongs to the Fu family. If
Charles says he doesn't know anything about it, would you believe him? The reason why those people
in the club are so proud and arrogant is because the Fu family protects the place. Don't you think so?"

In the past, Edward used to admire Charles' moral quality, but because of this incident, he couldn't just
easily believe Charles.

In other words, Edward didn't dare to let Nancy go because he didn't know what Charles' true intention
was.

"But, Edward, Charles is not that kind of person..." Nancy cried.

"No one knows the truth before it comes out." It broke his heart to hear Nancy cry so Edward tried to
coax her. "Nancy, stop crying. Listen to me, Okay? If it has nothing to do with Charles, I will let you go.
But if Charles is really involved with it, I will never push you into the fiery pit again!"

Not knowing what to say, Nancy sobbed in silence.

A part of her believed that Charles was not a bad man, and the other part thought Edward was right.

"Ahem..." Since Nancy was wearing thin clothes, being hugged like this warmed her up.



As Edward wrapped her tighter, Nancy's warmness passed through Edward's body like a current which
made his heart hammer in his chest.

Upon realizing this, Nancy's face quickly flushed. She gently pulled away from Edward's embrace and
took a step back.

"I know, Edward. I will listen to you." As she spoke, Nancy lowered her head.

"That's right. Wait for me. I'll almost done cooking." Holding the phone in his hand, Edward went back
to the kitchen.

Although Nancy was disappointed, she just shrugged her shoulders and went to the bathroom to wash
herself.

Right after Nancy was done, Edward called out her name to eat.

As expected, Edward cooked a good meal, and Nancy wolfed down her food.

When she accidentally raised her head, she found Edward smiling at her.

His eyes showed his undisguised love for her.

She always knew that he liked her.

"Edward, I'm full. I'm going to take a shower." Afraid that Edward would say something, Nancy stood up
and left in a hurry.

"Okay." The smile on his face didn't disappear.

Edward didn't ask for too much. Having Nancy by his side was more than enough for him. If he had
Nancy, it felt like he had the whole world.



After taking a shower, Nancy was still thinking about the phone and didn't know where it was hidden.

Once she found it, she could call her family.

There was no doubt that her family was worried now that they thought she was missing.

Even Charles was worried, wasn't he? If she wasn't there, would Charles be anxious?

She had never doubted it in her life, but now, she had been asking this question to herself for several
times now.

What she didn't know was, Charles was more than anxious—he almost went crazy.

After forcing Mr. Yang to tell them where Nancy was, Charles and Jay went to the club directly with his
men. But it was a long way, so when they arrived, they saw that there were many hitmen looking for
Nancy and Edward all over the mountain.

Since Charles didn't know that Nancy had escaped, he was clueless about why these men are roaming
around. "What's going on here?"

"They seem to be looking for someone," answered Jay.

As soon as he stopped the car, he got out and walked towards these men. "Hey, what are you doing?"

Seeing that someone was coming, the hitmen said in a hurry, "We are looking for rabbits. Did you see
any?"

They couldn't say that they were looking for someone, because the club was a secret. The men who
came to play were all invited, and very few strangers would come. Moreover, the outside world knew
little about the club.



"We didn't see any rabbits. And we are looking for a woman here..." The murderous look on Charles'
face was hidden behind a pair of big sunglasses, but his aura made the hitmen dare not look down
upon him.

However, they had completely misunderstood Charles' words. They thought that Charles and his men
came here to have fun like the others.

"If you are looking for a woman, then you can go to the club. There will be women to serve you," the
hitman said.

They had been trying for several hours, but they still couldn't find any trace of Nancy after searching
through the bushes.

In the past, some people had escaped the club, and they also failed to find them. Under pressure, they
lit up the bushes and burned the women to death.

However, it might be too fierce that the club might be burnt down.

Besides, many people died, so this method was no longer used.

They knew very well that finding a person in the bushes was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

So, at this moment, they were just comforting their boss and putting on an act.

It was then that Charles and Jay had arrived at the club.

Someone came up in a hurry. "Who are you looking for?"

They surveyed Charles from head to toes, with a slightly terrified expression on their faces.

Clenching his jaw, Charles took off his glasses. "We are looking for Nancy."



"We don't have a woman named Nancy here. Are you mistaken?" The hitmen looked at each other and
said in one voice.

"Yes, we have never had a woman named Nancy here. You came to the wrong place."

"That's right. Who is Nancy? Some of the women here are called Cinderella and Bethel. There is no
cheesy name as Nancy."
