Chapter 198 A Cover

Nathan gave a dry laugh. “I don’t know. You have to ask him.”

He stammered then, hurriedly took a strawberry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Jean smiled at him. “I thought both of you talk about everything.”

Nathan started choking, and he patted his chest to soothe the cough.

“Slowly, Mr. Knox.” Jean’s smile grew wider.

Although Nathan did not reveal anything, she was absolutely certain that Edgar had another plan in mind, and Nathan knew about it.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have reacted like this.

Edgar suddenly appeared at the door. He stared at Nathan, who was coughing profusely and frowned. “What’s wrong?”

“I have to go. I have something else to do!” Nathan shook his head and dashed out.

“What did you do to him?” Edgar’s eyes were dark.

Jean ate her strawberry nonchalantly. “Nothing. We only had a casual chat. What can I do to a grown-up man? I’ve lost my freedom to go anywhere I want. Am I losing my freedom to talk now?”

Edgar’s temple twitched.

“Do you mean I’ve taken your freedom away?”

Jean casted him a dispassionate look.

Susan tried to hold her chuckle back. “Master, I’m going to prepare lunch now. Why don’t you go have a walk in the garden with Ms. Eyer? The weather is good today.”

Edgar gave Jean a look. A while later, he said, “Forget it.”

She would never have a walk with him.

He knew too that Jean was dying to leave this place.

But he didn’t want to let her leave.

Edgar turned around and entered his study. He closed the door with a bang.

Jean was stunned for a moment. Did he just let her go?
