Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150 Nowhere to Be Seen

At the crack of dawn. Ben tried calling Jean when he woke up, but the call wouldn’t connect. Farra accompanied him to the nurse when she couldn’t stop him from going.

As Ben stepped out of his room, he met Edgar and his assistant. A bodyguard was following behind them. “Mr. Royden.” Ben called out to him. “Why are you here?”

Edgar turned around and looked at him coolly. “Am I supposed to inform Mr. Ludwig wherever I go?”

The air around him was frigid. Farra nudged Ben. She heard Myer say that the recent partnership with Royden Group was dreadful. Besides, Royden Group seemed to be considering ending all partnerships with Ludwig Group.

They had to be tolerant of Edgar for their business’s sake. “Mr. Royden is right. Let’s go, Benny.” Farra pulled her son. Ben turned back as he was pulled away. Edgar entered the elevator with the others. He frowned. “Mom, can you ask around why Edgar is here at the hospital?”

“Royden Group has shares in this hospital. It’s not surprising that he’s here. Aren’t you looking for Jean? Let’s ask them.”

The nurse only replied, “We don’t know.”

“How wouldn’t you know? She was somewhere around the operating room yesterday.” Ben was anxious. “I’m sorry, Mr. Ludwig. There are a lot of people heading in and out of the hospital every day. We didn’t see her.”

“Please call her a few more times. Let’s go back to your room. You need to rest. I’ll ask someone to find her later.” Farra comforted him.

Ben walked away slowly. His eyes were dull.

“She promised she wouldn’t leave…”

She didn’t detest him when he was crippled.

Why did she disappear when he was much better now?

Ben glanced at the back garden. “Mom, I’ll go look at the back. Jean might be waiting for me there!”

“Huh?”

He ran away before Farra could hold on to him.

The decorations his mother had ordered were still up. He was going to propose to her again there, but the main character was missing.

A light drizzle fell from the sky.

Farra ran to him with an umbrella. “Alright, let’s go back now. Jean has to be around if you want to propose to her. Let’s go.”

Ben was down in the dumps.

His shoulders were wet from the rain as Farra pulled him back in.

At the same time, a black car passed by on the road in front of the hospital. Jean was in the car, unconscious.

Her head was placed on Edgar’s lap. Worried that she wasn’t comfortable, he placed a hand beneath her shoulder to support her. He tapped on his phone screen while waiting for the test results.

“Mr. Royden, the results are out.” Miles sent the report of Jean’s blood work to Edgar’s phone.

Edgar opened the document.

He went over it intently.

He sighed a breath of relief.

But he didn’t release his grip on his phone. His eyes were burning with fury.

Sky sneaked into Jean’s room and injected an unknown fluid into her drip the night before. Fortunately, the guard on duty discovered the scene.

Edgar rushed to the hospital when he received the news.

“Mr. Royden, we’re here at your villa.” Miles opened the back door.

Edgar draped his coat over Jean and carried her in.

But he left in a hurry after settling her down.

He knew that she would insist on going back when she woke up. She would be in a better frame of mind if he weren’t around.

“Go to MON & Co.” Edgar’s face was grim.

The driver and Miles felt the air in the car turn frigid. Whoever it was, they were asking for a death wish aggravating Mr. Royden.
