True Love Waits

Chapter 1466 Extra Story About Edmond (Part One)

The fifth son of the Huo family, Edmond Huo, was infamous for having the worst temper in the family.

He had always been unruly and disobedient from childhood to adulthood. Matthew even tried

unpopular methods of disciplining him by giving him a good old thrashing, but unfortunately, it didn't

work.

When Wesley and Gifford were in their mid-twenties, they had been promoted several ranks in a row in

the military.

However, the story of a 24-year-old Edmond, was very different because he was still just a junior official

—only one level higher than the rookies. He never made any attempt to make progress but instead,

caused trouble all day long. It was as if his mind was wandering elsewhere.

The reason for his depression stemmed out of a big fight he had with Erma when he was twenty years

old. It all started when Matthew told him the truth. "Erma was born three minutes earlier which makes

you the youngest member of the family. But we wanted your sister to have five older brothers so your

grandfather and I decided to tell everyone that you were older than Erma."

Edmond was shocked by the news.

In fact, he didn't speak for three days after that.

The poor young man could do nothing but bottle up his anger, after all, he couldn't turn back the hands

of time.

All of a sudden, Erma started bossing him around. She was so proud of the fact that she was older

than him that she kept pestering Edmond to show her more respect.

Fortunately, Edmond's anger didn't last long. After all, he loved his sister from the bottom of his heart. It

really didn't matter whether he was the older or the younger between them. He was happy to have her

as his sister anyway.

One day during the training, the superior announced in public that a high ranking official would be

paying them a visit in two days, and this person was a woman.

This caused a heated discussion in his platoon, but Edmond brushed it off disdainfully as he couldn't

care less about some woman just because she was a superior officer. In his head, he could beat ten

women with one hand.

Unfortunately, the woman he thought he could beat with one hand was the very same woman who

ended up embarrassing him in front of his associates for the first time in his life.

The woman was in her early twenties, but she was already several ranks higher than he was. She was

dressed sharply in a neat uniform, with short hair, and she had an imposing aura.

During the break, Edmond leaned against the horizontal bar with a blade of grass in his mouth and

listened to others talking about the female instructor. He sneered, "She's just like a hard ass. She didn't

even smile for one moment."

His voice was neither loud nor low, and everyone within a few meters could hear it.

"Edmond Huo!" The voice of an infuriated woman exploded in his ears.

Startled by the voice, Edmond's heart throbbed violently. He rubbed his ears nervously and turned

around slowly. "Yes!"

The woman's glare could burn a hole through his skull. "You sound unconvinced?" She had heard

about the notorious member of the team who was well-known for giving the other instructors a

headache. On top of that, most of his antics would go unpunished. After seeing him in person today,

the woman realized that the rumors were all true.

Even if everyone else didn't dare to punish him, she did!

"It took you that long enough to figure that out? Why don't you just go back and let Mr. Luo do the

teaching. We can continue to follow him!" 'A group of men trained by a woman? How ridiculous!'

Edmond sneered.

"Why don't we settle this with a little contest? If you can beat me in the five-kilometer swimming race, I

will ask Mr. Luo to come back immediately. Are you up for it?"

The female instructor's words caused an uproar in the place. 'Five kilometers? That's awesome!'

The furthest distance Edmond swam in record was four kilometers. However, the thought of one extra

kilometer didn't seem like such a big deal to him and he sprang up to his feet. "It's a deal!" As long as

they wouldn't have to be trained by a woman anymore, he was willing to face the challenge.

"All right then!"

The swimming competition was set for two o'clock on that very same day.

The swimming pool in the training ground wasn't big enough, so they went to the river outside the

military base.

The river just outside the suburbs was several kilometers long and was in perfect condition for

swimming.

Standing by the river, the female instructor took off her coat, revealing a green military vest underneath.

She smirked at Edmond and said, "The one to reach that bridge first, wins."

"Okay!" Edmond looked away, took off his coat and jumped into the river to assume position.

When the race started, it went quite smoothly for Edmond. He managed to keep a reasonable lead in

the first two kilometers, but after that he began to fall behind, despite his efforts.

The woman began to pick up the speed and swam forward without taking a rest.

Edmond emerged from the water, panting helplessly. He looked at the woman swimming in front of him

and murmured, "Humph, she must be a boring woman. If anyone marries such a woman in the

future..." The mere thought of it gave him goose bumps. Luckily, he would not have to marry this kind of

woman because he preferred gentle girls.

Thinking of this, he plunged into the water and swam forward with all his strength.

When he reached four-kilometer mark, he knew that he wouldn't be able to catch up with her. However,

for the sake of bringing Mr. Luo back, he rolled his eyes and decided to play tricks. "Help! Help..." he

screamed.

The moment she heard his voice, Olivia Gu, the female instructor, turned around and swam to his

rescue without hesitation.

"Edmond Huo, are you okay?"

When she got closer to him, Edmond suddenly pulled her under water. The two people tussled and

tangled under water in each other's arms and finally... their lips pressed together without their will or

knowledge.

Neither of them expected this to happen. In fact, Edmond just wanted to buy time. When their eyes

met, he felt the softness of her lips and Edmond felt a tingling feeling in his heart.

Suddenly, he pulled Olivia Gu into his arms and gave her a deeper kiss.

This was the first time someone had dared to do this to her. When she came to her senses, Olivia Gu

was so angry she wanted to grab his neck and drown him. However, Edmond reacted quickly as he let

go of her and swam ahead before she could catch him.

Unfortunately for Edmond, Olivia Gu wasn't the type to be pushed around, that too by a bad boy. She

immediately swam after him, vowing to smash his head in for stealing her first kiss without her consent.

When they were about to reach the finish line, Edmond suddenly disappeared.

She looked for him in the water, but he was nowhere to be found.

Suddenly, a vague trace appeared on the calm water surface and Olivia Gu reached out without

hesitation to grab Edmond's collar from the back.

Edmond flashed her a cheeky smile and said, "Miss Gu, go ahead. Don't you have a race to win?"

'The race? You and your race can go to hell!' Enduring the urge to hurl curses at him, Olivia Gu

decided to punch him in the face instead.

Unfortunately, Edmond slipped out of her hands yet again, and dived into the water to swim ashore.

Since her competitor was already running away from the race, why would she bother about continuing?

As such, she followed him ashore.

Before long, Olivia Gu caught up with him again. The two fought for a few rounds, and eventually she

had him pinned down on a haystack in the riverbank.

"You brat! How dare you do that to me! I'll beat you to death today!" Olivia Gu didn't care whose son

Edmond was. She wanted to get her revenge, first and foremost!

Edmond cleverly turned over with her in his arms and before she could react, he pressed her under his

body and said, "Madam, please calm down. That kiss was only meant to serve as a distraction!" 'Are

you kidding me? Why would I kiss such a hard ass?' he thought contemptuously.

"How dare you!" Olivia Gu hardly ever blushed the same way she did now. Embarrassed, she turned

him over with all her might and pressed him down again.

This way, she could still keep punching Edmond.

The man was absolutely furious. Why was she hitting him so hard? All he did was kiss her twice.

Despite his greatest efforts to best the woman, he failed as she was far more skilled than he was. In

the end, he had no choice but to be taught a hard lesson.

When he came back to the military base with his face red and swollen, the look of embarrassment on

his face made everyone roar with laughter.

Everyone was able to figure out that someone had beaten the daylights out of Edmond. Their questions

were answered when they saw the female instructor's fuming face when she came back. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

When Matthew heard that his naughtiest son had been taught a lesson by a woman, to the extent that

his face was covered in bruises, he was not angry at all, but instead, a trace of excitement appeared on

his calm face.

He immediately asked someone to gather more information about the woman. Only then did he know

that Olivia Gu was also from a notable family. A lively and vivacious person, Olivia Gu was an

exemplary student loved by her teachers and fellow pupils alike.

After that, Matthew specifically told the higher-ups in the military to let Olivia Gu continue to guide his

son. If Edmond's work weren't up to her satisfaction, she could just beat him up as much as she

wanted to.

However, a few days later, Matthew again received a shocking news about Edmond again. This time,

his son, Edmond had kissed Olivia Gu in front of all the other trainees.

Matthew's heart skipped a beat at the mere thought. Since when did his son become so thoughtless?

What frightened him even more were the reports of Edmond always having an argument with his

female instructor.

One night, Edmond tied her up when he caught her off guard, threw her into her car and took her to a

hotel.

Edmond might have failed to defeat Olivia Gu on the training ground, but as it turned out, he could

easily defeat her in bed. The way she squirmed and begged for mercy in bed gave him great

satisfaction.

For once the man had won, but his victory didn't last long. Right after Olivia came to her senses, she

beat him again.
