Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 233

Chapter 233

Jean was back to normal when the nurse pushed her outside.

With the way she looked and acted, it appeared she had not recovered.

Edgar put down the phone and turned towards the nurse.

"How's her condition?"

"Ms.Eyer still hasn't responded to the treatment.Her situation can only be confirmed after the report is released for Mr.Meyer to read it."

"Okay, thank you."

After Edgar finished speaking, he frowned as if being bothered by something.

Jean glanced at him and slowly closed her eyes.

Something was wrong.

Did Edgar realize that I had recovered my hearing? Why didn't he expose me? "Miles, postpone all my meetings.I will not return for the time being."

Edgar made an unreserved phone call in front of Jean "About Andy, please wait till later.Keep working on the partnership with Eyer Group.As for Zenith Rocher..."

With his phone in hand, he left the ward.

Why did he leave now?! Jean quickly looked in the direction of the door and tiptoed out of bed.She was just about to open the door to look outside.

Suddenly, a deep voice spoke above her: "You really have the nerve.How dare you lie to me" Jean froze.

She calculated the many possibilities this could entail and finally spoke, "Move."

Edgar held his ground.

He did the opposite and grabbed her by the elbow.

With force, he pulled Jean inside the ward.

"It hurts!"

The moment Jean exclaimed her discomfort, Edgar leaned in and kissed her.Her words were interjected by his lips.

"You brute!"

With both hands and feet, she kicked him vigorously for release.

Edgar did not show any intent of releasing her.He pinned her against the wall.

Jean could feel the cold surface on the small of her back.

"Tell me, do you find pleasure in lying to me?" Edgar stared at her with a cruel look.He smiled out of amusement.

Jean caught her breath and gazed back at the man.

"Do you wish to continue your little games?"

Edgar held her neck and sneered.

"I think you overestimate Ben's intellect.Let's see how long this lying habit of yours will last when the Ludwig family is on the line.The Royden family will take great pleasure in taking out an easy competition."

"Edgar, you are completely insane" spat Jean.

The icy look between Edgar's brows and gaze grew a little less when she eventually submitted.He softened the grip around her neck.

Fortunately, he had guessed right.

Stoicism from her earlier days won't be an issue at all as long as she regained her hearing.He suddenly became conscious of his fear.

In comparison to losing her, he was more concerned about her being permanently harmed.

But, he was unable to share this notion with anyone.

Nobody would believe him if said it anyways.He was shoved away firmly by Jean, who said angrily, "I'm to blame! I told him to do all this!"

Edgar was heartbroken by the way she consistently defended Ben.

Edgar threatened her with a scowl, "And what if I intend to bankrupt the Ludwigs? What if I plan to ruin Ben?"

Jean clenched her hands.She knew of Edgar's capabilities.It wasn't in his blood to joke about things.He was a decisive man.

"You wouldn't’ "Because this is a quarrel between you and me.Do you wish to involve others?"

Jean dropped her head with a helpless look.

The man suddenly sneered.

"Then why did you provoke Gigi repeatedly? Don't tell me you're the jealous type?" He walked in front of her and lifted her wrists.

Jean was compelled to look at him.

"You should be aware that Gigi is the one bothering me with the intention to murder.If not, I wouldn't entertain a person who doesn't have the guts to finish what she started."
