The next evening, during a gathering with a few men, Martez Parker asked Edward Anderson why he hadn't won over Bella Scott yet.
"Bella loves freedom. I always listen to her. In fact, she's really soft and cute, but I'm afraid of hurting her, so I haven't been pushing too hard," Edward said.
Edward's words left Martez speechless.
Bella, this rude woman, was soft and cute? That was the funniest joke he'd ever heard in his life.
"You sure Bella's soft and cute?" Martez thought he'd misheard.
"Of course, Bella's the cutest and softest in our home. People who don't know her just have strange misunderstandings," Edward replied without hesitation.
Martez could only smile bitterly: "I think you're the one who misunderstands her."
Men in love like Edward had negative IQs, constantly defending their partners. To Edward, Bella was probably the world's most outstanding, perfect, and adorable woman.
