Chapter 55

Just as she was about to question Nancy, Jack and Edgar walked over side by side,

Seeing Edgar, Nancy burst into tears and rushed over. “Edgar…”

Edgar glanced at her and pursed his lips in silence.

Under the dim light, his expression was a little gloomy.

Jack saw the embarrassment on Nancy’s face and asked, “What’s going on?”

The guests helped to explain. Although they were all partial to Nancy, considering that they did not dare to provoke Tom and Sylvia, they did not say anything excessive.

Jack basically understood what was going on after listening to them.

He greeted the guests with a smile and continued to eat. After comforting Nancy for a while, he went back to the main hall with the guests.

Nancy sobbed and took Edgar’s hand. She was weak, coquettish, and pitiful. “Edgar, don’t blame Sylvía. She’s probably in a bad mood because of our engagement.”

Edgar looked down at her and asked in a cold tone, “What did you just say to her?”

Nancy was stunned by his question. When she looked up, she saw that he didn’t look so good. She quickly explained, “We’re getting engaged. I just hoped that she could bless us. I didn’t expect her to get angry. That’s why she splashed the wine on me.”

“Really?” Edgar frowned, and his face became colder and colder.

Nancy still held a glimmer of hope. She nodded and tightened her grip on his arm.

Almost instantly, he withdrew his hand. “Nan, I really don’t understand you.”

Nancy choked.

It was the first time that his tone was so cold. Had he seen what happened?

She didn’t dare to continue pretending. If Edgar had seen anything, she would only make him hate her

even more.

“Edgar, it’s because Sylvia made fun of me. I was so angry that I wanted to splash my wine on her… I haven’t changed Edgar, I’m still the same person I used to be.”
