This Time You Are Mine

"I need to know what"s keeping Nyelle stressed . " Yve"s thoughts recalled her best friend"s face when she arrived earlier .

"So what"s stressing you out?" Yve asked her best friend as soon as the door closed .

" . . . . . "

"If you don"t answer me, I"ll have one of Team Alpha find out the reason why . " Yve threatened her .

Inside, she never thought of doing that . However, she just can"t help but feel desperate that somehow her Nyelle isn"t trusting her with her problems . Yve just wanted to be there for her friend . Especially now that she has the money, power and means to help her .

"Your engagement ring is beautiful . " Nyelle tried to divert the topic to Vince"s proposal .

"I know that your opinion was considered that"s why I liked everything - from the food, activity and lastly, the ring . " Yve boastfully said .

"But enough about me . Can"t you tell me the reason for your insomnia?" Yve worriedly asked her .

"Actually it has something to do with the ring . " Nyelle began .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt"Go on . I"m listening . "

Nyelle narrated how she met Haru and Emika and the final moments she and Edward shared at the lobby of the hotel .

"WHAT?! YOU KISSED?!" Yve shrieked like a young girl .

"Not exactly a kiss . It was more of a smack . " Nyelle defended .

"But still your lips touched . "

Nyelle could only nod her head to confirm Yve"s statement .

"So do you love him?" Yve continued to pry .

Yve knew that Edward is attracted to her best friend and if the latter feels the same way, she"s more than happy to act as a cupid . Since she and Vince found each other and about to seal their promise of a lifetime, these two deserve to find theirs too .

"I"m not sure if I can call this love . But . . . "

"But?????"

"I think I like him . "

"So, what do you have in mind? I"ll gladly help you . "

"You sure about that, Yve?"

"Of course, Nyelle . You"re my only best friend . "

"But I betrayed you . "

"Which you regretted . You suffered enough and I"m fine and happy . So, what do you want me to do?"

"Emika . . . . . " Nyelle shyly uttered .

Even if it"s just a name, they have been friends for so long tha they knew what does it fully mean . Nyelle wants to know everything there is about Emika and what happened that day after they kissed .

"I"ll certainly get to the bottom of it . "

"Please don"t let him know . "

"Of course! I have my ways . By the way, where is your phone?"

"It"s with Slayne . He told me I can"t use the same phone and number anymore, for safety reasons . "

"Hmmmm . . . . . But I can"t always come here just to see you and inform you of the updates . Vince will get suspicious . " Yve exclaimed .

"Ahh . . . . how about you go out with me on a lunch with Vince"s mom and let"s get yourself a new phone?!" Yve sounded so excited .

"What about your work and security?" Nyelle anxiously asked .

"I"ll handle those things on my own . All you have to do is get ready, okay?"

Nyelle could only nod in defeat . Yve stood and was about to open the door when she turned and teased Nyelle once more .

"So, Edward is the reason for your insomnia attack?"

"YVE!!" Nyelle shouted and earned a laught from Yve .

Instantly, Yve ran out and told Jaleb to follow her while Nyelle is still inside the room . Her face turned red from all the teasing she received . She was trying to calm herself when she saw Edward taking a peek .

"Nyelle?"

"Yes?"

Edward stood properly and walked inside the room .

"Is there someone bothering you or maybe threatening you?" Edward asked . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

"What makes you think thay way?"

"Your insomnia? Plus Yve seems so worried . "

"Can"t you realize it"s because of you?" Nyelle wanted to shout these words to the clueless man in front of him .

"Never mind . Yve will take care of it . "

"I wish you would depend on me . I know I hurt you before . Can you give me a chance?" Edward said to himself as if he was speaking to Nyelle . Yet he can"t find the courage to say it out loud .
