Forbidden Passion

Chapter 670 Proposal

Phoebe let out a quiet sigh. Edward was even more stubborn than she thought, and she knew she was going to disappoint him again. "Alright!"

Edward flashed a relaxed smile. "You should head home. They're waiting for you."

Phoebe grabbed her shopping bags again. Seeing he wasn't getting out of the car, she asked, "Aren't you coming up for a bit?"

Edward put on a hurt expression. "You just turned me down, and now you're inviting me up? Phoebe, be kind."

Phoebe chuckled, the awkwardness she'd been feeling melting away. She pushed open the car door and got out.

"Alright, I won't bother you while you nurse your broken heart," she said casually, trying to shake off the earlier tension.

She had been rejecting Edward for the past two years.

Phoebe remembered one time when she had just come out of the delivery room after a C-section. The anesthesia had worn off, and she was in so much pain she felt like passing out.

Edward stood by the bed, watching her face pale from the pain. He suddenly grabbed her hand, half-kneeling by the bed, and pulled out a diamond ring. "Phoebe, let me take care of you and the kids." Phoebe was genuinely shocked. If it weren't for the fact that they were in a private room, others might have thought Edward was some jerk proposing after seeing her give birth to his kids.

The pain from the incision was intense. She reacted by slapping Edward and scolding, "Edward, are you out of your mind?"

Edward didn't mind the slap. He held her hand and said, "Do you know what I was thinking while you were in the delivery room?"
