Chapter 543

Jean gained a lot of weight while under Edgar's care for the last three days.

He had to inquire in surprise when Rachel Sander arrived to deliver the documents. "Has your morning sickness subsided, Mr. Eyer? You have a really strong hunger recently."

Jean scowled and became silent.

As soon as Miles noticed this, Rachel was dismissed.

"Mr. Eyer, don't worry. I won't let her out again."

Miles was taking care of Rachel Sander ever since she recovered.

Another strategy to safeguard Rachel was to ensure that no one else, aside from the two of them, would be aware of her current residence.

Her brother's business had also been taken care of. Every time Rachel writes to Jean, she would unintentionally compliment Miles, "I really didn't realize before that he is so careful in doing things, and previously..."

Jean yawned and looked at the phone screen.

The moment she released his grip, the person in front of her grabbed the phone.

Edgar winced a little, "Don't worry, I'll talk about him later. Arguing comes as second nature."

He was referring to Miles.

Before Jean could explain, he had already turned off the light. He took her hand and walked to the bathroom, "The water is warm enough. I'll be outside if you need me. Just call out for me."

Jean looked up to meet his gaze.

Edgar hummed subconsciously, "Don't worry."

With a yank, she was directed to the bathroom.

"But I want a bath..." "Women who are expecting are not allowed."

Silently sighing, Jean turned to face the empty bathtub.
