Chapter 228 Shameless

“Then, you…” Farra started to say but was interrupted by Edgar. “I don’t care.” He said and left the hospital room. The corridor was quiet, and only the quiet ticking of the clock could be heard.

Farra pursed her lips and sighed. “Benny, let’s go ask Dr. Roffe about Jean’s condition first.” She started walking, but Ben did not follow.

“Let’s go. Don’t you want to see Jean?” She knew her son well. It was only because of Jean Eyer that he took up the family business, so Farra knew she couldn’t let go of Jean.

“Mom, if what he said was true, would you still support Jean and I?” Ben lifted his head and asked his mother weakly. “What are you saying? With how advanced the medical world is now, she’ll be fine. You…” She stopped speaking as Ben was walking away. “What?”

No matter Jean’s condition, he would never let go of her. The only problem was that he still had to think about the Ludwig family, but Edgar could leave everything to stay by Jean’s side. Ben frowned at that thought. He wanted to win, but how could he win against someone with all those privileges?

In the hospital room. Edgar looked at the woman quietly reading a book on the bed. His eyebrows came together as he took small steps toward the bed. Jean abruptly lifted her head in shock when he reached her bedside.

“Don’t you need to go to work?” She swept her eyes to the clock and then mumbled, “Must really be free.” I don’t think anyone would believe it if I told them that the president of Royden Group had moved his office to my hospital room.

Edgar stared at her for a long time, and after confirming that she couldn’t hear him, threw his jacket on the sofa. “Can you not meet Ben Ludwig the next time he comes?” He was talking to her, but he knew

that she couldn’t hear him.

“What? I can’t hear you. If you want to scold me, sorry, but could I bother you to write it down?” Jean said, frustrated, as she put down the book in her hands.

Edgar ignored her and left to go look over his documents. Jean lay back down on the bed. She took her phone out and started scrolling through the news. Not long after that, she chanced upon an article that had her and Edgar’s names in the headline.

‘The Schemes of a Tycoon’s Ex-Wife. The Tycoon Leaving His Fiancée and Spending the Night with His Ex-Lover’
