Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon) novel Chapter 191

Janice gently tugged on Edward's hand. "Why the long face?"

Edward raised an eyebrow. "My girlfriend is severely injured. Should I be smiling?"

She asked, "Who did it?"

"Heidi hired someone, but Amelia gave the order."

The two of them were in cahoots.

Janice lowered her gaze as she quietly started formulating a plan.

Just then, Barbara walked in. "Ed, Calvin is looking for you. I'll stay with Janice. Go on."

He turned to Janice first. "I'll be back soon."

"Okay."

…

Robert was also in Calvin's hospital ward. His secretary was standing guard at the door, allowing no one to peek inside.

As Edward entered, he asked, "What's going on?"

"It was Heidi, wasn't it?" Calvin knew because the Ryan family had already called him to apologize.

Robert had kept his distance, but that didn't mean he didn't have an opinion. He wasn't the type to let something like this slide.

"You told them to dissolve their company and barred them from operating in Greenfield City?" he asked.

Edward met his gaze. "Are you here to stop me?"

"No." Robert said, "I just want to know your next move."

Edward and Calvin understood the subtext. If Edward wanted to take things further, Robert wouldn't just stand by and watch.

"I won't do anything for the time being," Edward replied.

Heidi had lost the full function of her finger. And with Amelia in the picture, there was no way to get Heidi locked up for life. Since he couldn't eliminate the problem, Edward wouldn't act rashly.
