Chapter 242 As He Wish

Right after they entered the hall of the Knox family mansion, a man got out a black sedan. Cold fury seeped through his eyes as he fixed his gaze on Jean.

“Edgar is here.” Gigi saw him from afar and immediately thought of a plan. As he slowly walked into the mansion, Nathan quickly went to him when he heard of his arrival.

“Edgar, it’s a welcoming party for my Uncle Zenith. Even if you are displeased with something, please, please don’t ruin the party on my behalf.” He put his hands together as he pleaded.

“I’ll take a break.” Just as she was about to put the food away, she felt a chill down her spine and looked around. Sure enough, Edgar had arrived.
