Chapter 115

Chapter 115 Tell Him I Am Dying

When Jean woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar bedroom. She instantly became alert as she noticed the opulent surrounding and smelled the gentle fragrance of perfume in the air. Has Sky captured me?

Where am I? Jean sat up immediately. She ignored the soreness all over her body and decided to walk out on her bare feet. She had just gotten off the bed when a man came out of the bathroom.

“You!” Jean screamed. “Edgar, why are you here?”

Did he make a deal with Sky? Or is it…

Edgar looked at her face calmly and approached her to check whether she still had a fever. However, she slapped his hand away before he could touch her. “Stay away from me!”

Edgar’s arm was left hanging in the air as his eyes turned stern. Why has she turned hostile the instant she woke up?

Edgar ignored her and went out straight away. By the time Jean came downstairs, she finally realized her being here had nothing to do with Sky. Although Sky was influential in the design industry, he would not have the means to own such a luxurious villa in Yorktown.

This villa had a total of five stories and had an opulent European design. Even the lamps on the wall were exquisite.

Jean did not see anyone as she walked down the stairs.

“This place is like a haunted house!”

Suddenly, she heard footsteps from the second floor. She saw Edgar and glared at him. Then, she headed into the kitchen without a backward glance.

She was hungry.

Edgar changed into a shirt and suit before heading downstairs. He saw Jean in the kitchen and could not resist smiling.

Jean took a slice of bread from the table and drank a mouthful of milk before complaining, “What’s wrong with him? He has such a big house, but this is all the food he has. Is Royden Group about to go bankrupt?”

Edgar realized something at that moment.

He did not seem to mind Jean cursing him.

However, he pushed the thought away and headed straight to her. He ignored Jean’s protest and pressed his hand on her forehead. “Your fever has receded. Does your neck still hurt?”

Jean frowned upon hearing him.

“It doesn’t hurt.”

She continued to maintain her distance from him as she considered some matter.

“Later, the doctor will be coming here to give you a checkup. You should take your medicine on time.” He headed outside after saying that.
