Chapter 17

Natasha knocked on the door. She then pushed it and came in. "Edward, I did not see you when I came in. You see, I brought you fruits." Edward never treated Natasha as a woman, and always thought she was a little girl. Penny's words made Edward begin to change his views on Natasha. Natasha wore simple clothes, her clothes also did not have any famous brands . She just wore a simple short sleeve, and a simple pair of trousers. But because Natasha was tall, she was unexpectedly good-looking. Natasha held a fruit bowl in one hand and a fork in the other. Prepared to feed Edward. "Edward, come and let me feed you fruit. You need to eat more fruit so that you will have good health." Looking at Natasha getting closer and closer to him, Edward unconsciously looked at her neck, then down her clavicle, and then down her soft skin. "I will eat it myself." He said quickly then took the fruit bowl from Natasha's hand. "Edward, I am your wife, and I should do these things. Do not treat me as an outsider." Natasha looked at Edward's actions like she was a stranger to him. "This girl is getting bolder and bolder." He thought. She did not dare to say more when she saw him before, but now she dared to flirt with him. "Edward, eat slowly, I will be here to accompany you." She said, and sat down on the sofa. Edward was eating fruit, and Natasha picked up her mobile phone, getting bored. As soon as she picked it up, she received a friend request from a person whose name was Max. Natasha saw the name and knew instantly that it was Maxine. She has not contacted her for a long time. How could she suddenly add her? On second thought, she remembered what just happened earlier. She was about to press the delete button but changed her mind. Instead, she pressed on the accept button. She wanted to see what she was going to do. Maxine didn't even hope that her request would be accepted but she still gave it a try. To her surprise, her friend request got accepted. "Natasha, I'm sorry. Are we still friends?" Maxine thought that Natasha was simple-minded and that she could get some news from her. Looking at Maxine's sorry, Natasha felt funny. Did she think that she was that stupid? That she would forget about the things like it never happened? "What is the matter?" She asked. "Why did you come here and what is your relationship with the Busch family?" Seeing Maxine's question, Natasha wondered, did she not ask Jake? No, with her character, she must have asked, but Jake did not tell her. "Why are you asking me questions when you already asked Jake? You are friends with men and women. You think the same all the time, do you not?" "I would not be as stupid as before, telling her everything and letting others judge me." She said to herself. "When did Jake bring you here? Why did you not tell me?" Maxine accidentally exposed her true face. Looking at the message sent by Maxine, Natasha felt particularly ridiculous. "Why should I tell you? This is my own business. It had nothing to do with you." "We are best friends. We talked about everything before. There are no secrets between us." Natasha thought Maxine was so funny that she thought she was like that before. She believed everything she said and told her everything. "Are we still friends? What do you think?" "Natasha, we have always been friends and best friends. We just cannot destroy our friendship because of some small things."
