Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Fearful

Jean stayed in the room until it was almost dawn. She breathed a sigh of relief when she figured that Edgar wasn’t coming back and leaped out of the bed. She pulled open the door, ready to leave this place but saw Edgar’s bodyguards standing outside.

“Ms. Eyer, the car’s downstairs. Are you ready to leave?” One of them asked. Jean stood stunned as she had thought that they were there to stop her from leaving. She nodded and the bodyguards led her to the car; one in front of her and one behind her. When she got to the car, Jean frowned as she realized it was Edgar’s personal car. Why is he being so nice?

She once again remembered the things he had said in the room and concluded that it probably wasn’t Edgar who knocked her out but him who saved her. Jean looked out at the passing scenery, unable to comprehend what was happening.

She did not go straight to the hospital but went home to change. She changed into a turtle neck to hide away the marks Edgar had left on her neck. Then, she went to buy breakfast before making her way to the hospital.

Ben has a few examinations to go through today. Jean thought as she quickened her footsteps.

When she arrived at his room, she saw Ally and her family sitting inside. Ally was smiling sweetly while holding breakfast for Ben.

“Ben, I made you chicken soup and some snacks. It’s soothing for the stomach, how about trying some?”

“Nah.” Ben replied.

Ally awkwardly took it back, “But, I got up early to make it for you.”

Ben ignored her, and Ally dejectedly lowered the food in her hand. She looked up and saw Jean at the door, “Jean, you came.”

Everyone in the room turned to look at Jean.

Jean slowly walked in and placed the breakfast she had bought next to Ally’s. It really lacked in visuals in comparison to Ally’s handmade breakfast.

Yet, Ben requested, “Jeannie, give me the food.”

He had just rejected Ally, so this embarrassed the whole of the Sans family. Ally’s parents’ faces froze, and they left the room after hearing that, leaving just Ally sitting in there.

“Let me serve it. Jeannie, go sit down and rest.” Farra Emilio offered softly as she walked over. She felt guilty that things wouldn’t have gotten this bad if she hadn’t listened to Ally and sabotaged Jean.

“Yeah Jean, go and rest. You must be tired after having such a wild night at Imperial Hotel!” Ally said with pretend innocence while taking some pictures that she had prepared beforehand out. “My dad was there on business last night but saw you and some guys together. He looks like the young master of the White family, no? I didn’t know you were this wild, Jean.”

Jean gritted her teeth in annoyance, “Does that have anything to do with you?”

Ally feigned shock. How can she be so poised even after her secrets have been exposed?

Ally faked a smile and said, “I am just worried about you. I know Mrs. Ludwig doesn’t like wild girls. Last night, you were drinking with four or five men; what if something happens, that wouldn’t be good, would it?”

“That’s enough. Your parents have gone, there’s no point for you to stay here.” Farra couldn’t stand it anymore and loudly scolded Ally.

Ben’s expression had also darkened.

Ally could see that her words had affected them. She stood up happily, “You’re right, Mrs. Ludwig. I’ll go now, I’ll come back and see Ben next time.”

While walking away, she gave Jean a look and sneered at her.

Once the door closed, the ward became quiet.

After deep contemplation, Farra couldn’t stand it anymore and asked Jean, “Jeannie, was what she said just now true?”

Jean lowered her eyes and said, “Yes.” She didn’t want to lie.

“How… How could you?! Just because you’re tired of staying in the hospital, doesn’t mean you should go to places like that!” Farra said exasperatedly.
