Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 198

Chapter 198 A Cover

Nathan gave a dry laugh. “I don’t know. You have to ask him.”

He stammered then, hurriedly took a strawberry and stuffed it into his mouth.

Jean smiled at him. “I thought both of you talk about everything.”

Nathan started choking, and he patted his chest to soothe the cough.

“Slowly, Mr. Knox.” Jean’s smile grew wider.

Although Nathan did not reveal anything, she was absolutely certain that Edgar had another plan in mind, and Nathan knew about it.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have reacted like this.

Edgar suddenly appeared at the door. He stared at Nathan, who was coughing profusely and frowned. “What’s wrong?”

“I have to go. I have something else to do!” Nathan shook his head and dashed out.

“What did you do to him?” Edgar’s eyes were dark.

Jean ate her strawberry nonchalantly. “Nothing. We only had a casual chat. What can I do to a grown-up man? I’ve lost my freedom to go anywhere I want. Am I losing my freedom to talk now?”

Edgar’s temple twitched.

“Do you mean I’ve taken your freedom away?”

Jean casted him a dispassionate look.

Susan tried to hold her chuckle back. “Master, I’m going to prepare lunch now. Why don’t you go have a walk in the garden with Ms. Eyer? The weather is good today.”

Edgar gave Jean a look. A while later, he said, “Forget it.”

She would never have a walk with him.

He knew too that Jean was dying to leave this place.

But he didn’t want to let her leave.

Edgar turned around and entered his study. He closed the door with a bang.

Jean was stunned for a moment. Did he just let her go?

Just as she was still thinking about it, Susan had started preparing the ingredients for lunch.

Jean smiled as she walked over, “Susan, can you teach me a few dishes?”

“Do you wish to learn?” Susan was surprised. She knew that Jean was a pampered lady. She would not do such chores if she wasn’t in difficulty.

Jean hummed with a smile. “Well, we must learn how to take care of ourselves.”

She was used to standing on her own feet as she had to learn everything herself.

Susan felt sorry for Jean.

But soon, she gathered herself and started giving instructions. “Wash the cucumber and radish. Then, shred them. We shall start with cold dishes.”

“Okay!”

Jean happily went to the opposite of Susan.

Susan watched Jean hum while washing the vegetables. She felt a little lost inside. If that didn’t happen back then, she wouldn’t have…

The distressed feeling Jean had from being imprisoned in this house was converted into enthusiasm to learn cooking.

She was after all very new to this.

Therefore, the food served for lunch and dinner appeared in different sizes.

Edgar looked at the cold dish in front of him. He sighed. “Susan, what’s this?”

Before Susan could answer Edgar, Jean quickly said, “I pestered Susan to teach me how to cook. Don’t blame her.”

Edgar frowned.

He glanced at the band aid on her finger and spoke in a low voice. “A waste of time.”

Jean hummed in dissatisfaction.

She didn’t care if he thought it was a waste of time, she wanted to learn.

Her staying in this villa was the real waste of time, in fact.
