Chapter 349 I Can Undress Myself (Part Two)
"I'll help you undress. What else do you think I want to do?" Edward smirked again. He had underestimated her! But no woman could resist his charm and reject him, and Edward believed Daisy would concede in just a short while.
"Edward, you're evil!" Daisy blushed again and looked away. She would definitely not approach Edward since he had stated what he wanted to do to her. She knew he was lascivious, but she didn't think he'd say it out loud. She wouldn't fall into his trap again! Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
"What are you thinking, honey? You can't reach the zip, can you? I'm just trying to help. Or do you want to do something else with me instead?" Edward was telling the truth. He did mean to unzip Daisy since she couldn't take off the dress on her own. However, he also wanted to do something more intimate and romantic with her after taking off her dress. But he decided that Daisy didn't need to know the last part of his plan, yet. His image of a good husband in her heart might be tarnished in that case.
"No, I can undress myself." Daisy decided to try again. Things wouldn't be as simple as taking off a piece of clothing if she went to Edward for help. And she knew it well.
"Are you sure?" Edward got out of bed as he asked again. Startled, Daisy staggered a few steps backward. She knew better than anyone what Edward was capable of when it came to seducing a woman. She didn't want to play the part of his prey again tonight.
"Yes." Hands still covering her chest, Daisy gazed at Edward defensively, in case he suddenly flung himself against her. She was wearing a dress, and she couldn't last over 60 seconds in this dress before Edward took her down.
"Okay. Good luck with that. I'm going to have a shower. I'm happy to help if you are still in that dress when I finish." With a sly smile, Edward shrugged and walked directly toward the bathroom. When he went past Daisy, he quickly held her chin up with his long fingers and left a gentle kiss on her rosy lips. Before Daisy realized what had happened, he let go of her and laughed out loud as he disappeared
behind the bathroom door. Daisy froze, 'Did he just stop forcing himself on me? Why does he never play by the rules?'
While Daisy was still in shock, Edward was gloating inside the bathroom. He knew Daisy would still be struggling to take off her dress when he finished his shower, because she had no idea about the secret of her dress. To avoid wardrobe malfunction, the zip on the custom-designed dress wasn't like any other ones; it had a small hidden hook. As much as the dress was expensive, almost half of the price he paid went to the zip.
However, Daisy didn't know about this. Therefore she couldn't get out of the dress without Edward's help, not unless she decided to destroy the dress directly. But he knew Daisy had always led a frugal life, he believed she wouldn't tear the dress off violently.
As soon as Daisy saw Edward head into the bathroom, she flung her arms behind her and tried again to reach for the zip. After ten minutes of trying and failing, she finally realized that why Edward didn't force her and dropped the topic so easily. He knew exactly what he was doing! She couldn't see the back of her dress, and she had no idea how the zip was hooked; therefore she wouldn't be able to take off the dress on her own. Realizing that, Daisy gave up and threw herself into the bed. 'Well, that's it.' she thought gloomily, 'I have to ask the devil for help.'
Instead of taking a 3-minute quick shower, Edward spent quite a long while in the bathroom. When he finally emerged from the bathroom again, he didn't know whether he should laugh or sigh at what he had seen. While he was having a bath, Daisy fell asleep on their bed! How could she fall asleep like that? Wasn't she afraid that Edward would do something to her while she didn't even know it? Or did she believe Edward was a gentleman who wouldn't make a move on her without permission?
The truth was that Daisy was wide awake. She heard him walk out of the bathroom and hastily closed her eyes, pretending that she had fallen asleep. She did it because she was too embarrassed to ask him for help. After all, it was she who had sternly rejected him when he offered to help. She knew
Edward would never leave her alone about this, and he would tease her before and after the dress came off. Daisy decided she'd better play dumb and pretend to be asleep. Even if he took off her dress for her, she could pretend she didn't know it because she was supposed to be asleep. And she didn't have to feel embarrassed that he saw her naked even though she was sober.
"Asleep already? I wonder how you did anything without me all these years!" With his eyes fixed on her face, Edward mumbled as he tenderly caressed her creamy skin with a smile. He reached his hand for the hidden hook and pushed it. The hook popped open immediately, then he easily unzipped her dress. Daisy secretly sighed inside. She was annoyed! How could Edward remove a woman's clothes like he had done it a million times before? He was such a playboy! Besides, how was she supposed to know that the zip was designed with a special hook? She thought she just needed to find the zip and pull it like she did to her other dresses!
"Honey, time to wake up. Still pretending? I wouldn't mind helping you with your shower in that case." Edward leaned close to whisper in Daisy's ear, his warm breath brushing her earlobe. He really thought she was asleep until she quivered when he landed his fingers on her smooth skin. Edward instantly realized that Daisy was putting on an act.
'No, he's only bluffing! He can't be knowing that I am pretending.' Besides, she was half-naked at this point. How could she admit that she was conscious and let him undress her? Daisy made up her mind to keep her eyes shut and lie still, although she was really nervous.
"Okay. So my honey is really sound asleep. But she needs a shower. What should I do? I think I'll have to help her out." As soon as Edward finished speaking, he grabbed the dress and, with a sudden burst of strength, pulled the dress off her body. He determined to leave her no choice. Daisy let out a terrified scream as she felt her body exposed in the cold air. She hurriedly pulled over a quilt to cover her up.
"Ahh! Edward! What are you doing?" Daisy hadn't expected that Edward would suddenly strip her down. The first thing came to her mind was to cover herself up; she had completely forgotten that she was supposed to be asleep.
"Nothing. Weren't you asleep? As you can see, I'm helping you take off your dress and grab a shower." Edward put on an innocent look as he answered. However, he was smirking inside, 'Keep on playing! As if you could fool me.'
"No. I can manage on my own." Was he kidding? Daisy would never believe that Edward would help her take a shower without doing anything else. She was no fool!
"Are you sure, honey? You said you didn't need my help with the dress, and here you are. Are you really sure this time?" The more Daisy blushed, the more Edward felt like teasing her. She was a tough girl; it was rather rare to see her surrender.
"Absolutely! Now turn around! I need to go to the bathroom! Alone!" Daisy was a military officer, she was used to seeing topless soldiers and their broad chests after training. But now seeing Edward in front of her with only a bath towel around his waist, Daisy got nervous and didn't know where to look. And did he just threaten her? Daisy believed that she didn't need help taking a bath. She was a grown- up woman, not a 3-year-old child!
