If it really wasn’t him, then this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Sylvia narrowed her cold gaze and looked at Edgar with doubt still in her eyes.

She squeezed his cheeks forcefully with her hand.

The flesh on the man’s cheeks bulged, as if he had two small dumplings in his mouth. His handsome brows slightly furrowed, and his black eyes shimmered, resembling a pitiful, wronged puppy.

“I’ll believe you this time. But if I find out you’re still lying to me, I’ll immediately throw you into prison.

After saying that, she withdrew her hand angrily.

Edgar slumped on the floor, completely drained of strength.

He wanted to speak, but suddenly, a sour and sweet sensation surged up his throat, causing him to choke and cough violently.

It felt like his lungs were about to come out.

extremely painful.

recover.

Even Eleven and Fifteen, upon seeing his miserable appearance, felt a hint of sympathy.

Sylvia, however, had an expressionless face, and it was unclear what she was thinking as

After a while, she looked at Eleven and Fifteen and said, “Which one of you will cook some millet porridge for him and bring it over?”
