Bride to Be, Not Me

Chapter 186

Edward didn't turn his head, acting as if he hadn't heard Gregory's and Emma's pleas. He gently brushed Janice's cheek with the back of his hand. "You rest for a while. I'll be back tonight," he said softly.

He didn't want to leave so soon after Janice woke up, but there were things he needed to take care of. He couldn't just drop everything.

Janice understood and gave a small nod. "Okay."

Edward looked at her for a moment before Barbara spoke up. "I'll stay here and take care of her. Don't worry."

Seeing Edward's expression, Barbara could tell he was deeply worried about Janice. Her reassurances gave him a sense of relief. With a nod, Edward finally turned and headed for the door.

Janice had been right about him looking disheveled. He had been staying at the hospital without even shaving, yet he still exuded an intimidating presence.

As Edward was leaving, Gregory and Emma tried to talk to him. Edward didn't spare them a glance. "If you mess with the peace here again, Heidi will be ruined," he said, his tone icy.

Edward's words make Emma nearly collapse. "Edward, you and Didi grew up together. How could you..."

Edward turned and gestured to the bodyguards. Without a word, they immediately grabbed Emma by the arms and escorted her off the floor.
