Chapter 98

Edward thought for a moment and said, "It's so far away. I didn't see it clearly. It seems that there are two words “marry you'."

Edward thought about it carefully again and confirmed, "I really saw it."

Xavier's expression became colder and colder. “Is she willing to marry Jasper?"

There was a fire in his chest. It was stuffy. If Arya hadn't been uncomfortable, Xavier would have pulled her up and asked her for an answer.

In fact, even if Edward didn't say anything, Xavier knew Jaspers purpose in getting close to Bridget. Xavier even felt that the thing that Jasper's unexpectedly rescued Bridget was not an accident, but premeditation.

Now that Jasper was Bridget's savior, it was not good for him to have a direct conflict with him. "Your parents are abroad. Come to my house on Lunar New Year's Eve.” Xavier trusted Edward. They had always been good friends.

And Edward had fallen for Bridget for a long time. He gave up a good job abroad and left his parents for Bridget. It was really rare.

Some words from Edward convinced Xavier. He had to protect Bridget from Jasper.

Xavier knew very well that Jasper would not like Bridget.

Jasper got close to Bridget for revenge, or for the connections of Mr. Jones, trying to ride on his coattails.

Either way, it would hurt Bridget after she found out the truth.

Edward stood up excitedly. "Really? You will help me?"

Xavier looked up at him. "Are you really a doctor?"

Edward cleared his throat to cover his embarrassment. He was too excited just now.

Edward was very happy. Thinking of what Xavier wanted, he quickly took out the medicine from the box and handed it to him. "Her scar left a mark because it was not healed. In fact, the medicine I gave her last time, as long as she followed my instruction, it shouldn't leave a mark. This is a new scar removal cream developed by the research institute. It is said that the effect is very good.” Xavier took the medicine, walked up, stood on the steps, and looked back at Edward. "It's too late. If you don't want to go back, there's a guest room downstairs."

Edward shrugged. "Since you said so, I won't leave. It's freezing outside.”

Although he drove here, he didn't want to bother to drive back anymore.

When Xavier returned to his room, Arya was already asleep soundly.

Xavier squeezed the ointment out and applied it to her scarred face.

It was a little cold, which made Arya move slightly. After finishing, Xavier lay down beside her. His strong long arms held her in his arms. Arya was a little unhappy for she was moved. Although she was not awake, she looked very impatient.

Xavier lowered his head, kissed her forehead, patted her on the back, and coaxed her to sleep. When Arya woke up in the morning, Xavier was still asleep. It seemed that he hadn't rested well for the past few days.

Xavier did not sleep well at home these days. He met the Harrison Family again. His marriage was annulled. Harriet accepted the money from Xavier.

Mr. Jones came back and was a little unhappy to know what had happened. It was not because of Marshal's crime, but because Xavier annulled his marriage.

Mr. Jones felt that it was not proper for Xavier to do this at this time.
