Chapter 272 Unable to Leave

When Jean heard his steady voice, she lowered her head even further. Before arriving, Jimmy had told her that this was a VIP event. If it was discovered that she was here on Melody’s behalf, it was very likely that she would be thrown out.

“I–” She opened her mouth, but she didn’t know how to explain herself.

After hearing the news, the manager quickly smiled apologetically at Edgar. “I’m very sorry, Mr. Royden. How may I help you?”

Then, Jean felt a familiar gaze on her.

Under that situation, she made up her mind and said in a low voice, “Thanks, Mr. Royden.”

Edgar looked at her hesitantly.

When the manager felt the atmosphere between them, he did not dare to interrupt and quickly left with the rest of the staff.

Jean heaved a sigh of relief. Until then, she had never spoken to Edgar in that tone. Now that they were left alone, she lifted her head slightly, showing a pair of dark eyes covered by a black satin veil, making her look mysterious and alluring.

In that instant, an unfamiliar emotion started brewing in the depths of Edgar’s eyes, but she couldn’t decipher it.

“I’m here on another person’s behalf. Please don’t expose me.”

Since she had already promised Melody that she would get the necklace, she did not want to break her promise.

Edgar’s gaze traveled down her body. Even though the dress she was wearing was not too revealing, the slight tease of flesh was even more tempting. On top of that, she was blessed with an exceptional figure.

She never wore anything like that before.

Realizing his gaze, she frowned and took a step back instinctively, but a waiter was walking toward them with wine glasses in his hands.

“Excuse me.”

Edgar quickly wrapped his arms around her waist to pull her in. Not letting go of her, he said, “Follow me upstairs.”

“I don’t–”

She struggled against him, but his cold voice rang threateningly. “Should I tell them that you’re an impersonator then?”

She bit her lips, having no other choice but to listen to him.
