Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 109 Rivalry

Edgar looked at her with conflicting emotions before mocking her a few seconds later, “There’s nothing that I haven’t seen before.”

“B*stard!” Jean quickly put on her clothes and glared warily at him. Then, the nurse rushed into the room. “You mustn’t disturb the patient resting.”

However, Edgar ignored the nurse and kept staring at Jean. A thought appeared in his mind. She seems alive and well. She even has the energy to scold me.

His gaze grew colder as he thought about this. At the same time, his cold eyes reflected Jean’s furious expression. She looks beautiful even when she is angry.

The nurse was a responsible person, so she asked, “Ms. Eyer, do you know this man? I can call the security here to escort him out if you wish.”

Jean took a deep breath and answered, “I know him.” Thus, the nurse glanced at Edgar a few more times before leaving the room.

Jean frowned as she stared at Edgar. “Have you not humiliated me enough? Why did you follow me to the hospital? Has Royden Group gone bankrupt? Is that why you are so free?”

At the same time, a small voice in her mind told her that Edgar did not intend to hurt her. Otherwise, he would do more than create a sense that he was bullying her.

In actuality, he did not do anything to harm her. However, Jean quickly suppressed the thought as soon as it appeared.

It is all Edgar’s fault that I nearly lost my life. If Ben had not shown up on time, who knows what could have happened to me! Thus, Jean looked at Edgar hatefully.

Edgar walked slowly to the window and looked at the night scenery. “Royden Group will never go bankrupt.”

He had good reasons for his confidence. After all, a few of the buildings in Yorktown belonged to Royden Group. Jean gripped the blanket and watched him warily. “Who did this to you?”

Jean could not determine what his intention for asking her this question was. “Was it Gigi?” Edgar remained expressionless even as he mentioned Gigi’s name.

Jean had a sudden realization. Is he testing me to see whether I know Gigi was the person behind it? If I revealed that I know, would he kill me immediately?

Wow, Edgar. Who knew you would be willing to do this much for your wife and child?

chuckled and said, “I don’t know.” Her eyes were dull, and her face expressionless as she looked at Edgar. Even hatred had disappeared from her
