Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 333

Chapter 333 Stop the Surgery

Jean was startled. The next second, she turned around immediately and wanted to push Edgar away. However, Edgar’s body was above her; when she attempted to push him away, he drew closer to her.

Then, Edgar turned swiftly and put Jean on the operating table together with him. Jean squirted her eyes as the light was blinding. Edgar pulled himself closer to Jean and blocked the light with his head.

Jean gritted her teeth. “Let go of me!” “No way.” Edgar’s eyes were glistening as he stared fixedly at her face. “I’m afraid that I won’t have the chance anymore if I let go.”

Jean’s frown deepened. She was here to negotiate with Edgar, but the latter hoaxed her. “Mr. Royden, I never thought you were this childish. Let go of me now. Otherwise, I’ll ask the others, so they know you’re completely fine.”

Edgar hummed in response but did not let go of Jean. “Go ahead and yell.” At that moment, their posture was intimate, so Edgar bet Jean wouldn’t dare to alarm the others.

“Let go of me first!” While struggling, Jean accidentally hit Edgar’s arm with her elbow.

Edgar winced as a sharp pain traveled across his body. He couldn’t hold this posture for too long, so he had no choice but to release Jean and step aside with a pale look.

Only then did Jean realize that Edgar was indeed injured. Although his condition was not as serious as what was announced to the public, he indeed went into a coma for one day due to the accident.

Edgar walked to the other end of the operating room and rummaged through the surface of the table. “You know how to bandage, don’t you?” He passed a roll of gauze pad and a pair of scissors to Jean. “We have to put on an act.”

After all, Edgar was supposed to undergo brain surgery. The others would definitely suspect something if he left the room without any wounds.

Jean retracted her gaze and uttered coldly, “Do you agree with my condition?” Edgar smiled and hummed in a deep, magnetic voice, “Sure.” Only then did Jean go forward to put a bandage on him.

Jean’s skill was blunt, and she would accidentally hurt Edgar throughout the process. Edgar had to adjust the position of his head accordingly so that Jean could wrap the gauze around it properly.

Nonetheless, not only did Edgar not lose his temper, but he also seemed to enjoy the process. After putting on the last piece of bandage, Jean stared at Edgar in a serious manner, “Don’t tell me your brain is really damaged.”

Edgar supported his head with his hand and muttered, “Maybe. I’m still having a severe headache.”

“Stop pretending. I won’t be fooled by the same act twice.” After putting the gauze pad and scissors back in their original place, Jean looked at the time and said, “A brain surgery should last at least two hours. Wait here until it’s time.”

Just as she was about to leave, Edgar blocked her way.

“Excuse me.”

“Our business is not done yet. Aren’t you worried that you’ll lose out if you leave now?”

Jean gazed at him in confusion. “What do you mean?”

“You secretly put a camera in the floral basket you gave me. How should we settle that?”

Jean’s heart jolted. I should’ve known this guy is not a pushover.

Outside the operating room, Gigi was pacing back and forth and rattling in a fluster, “Oh my goodness, why is it taking so long!”

From afar, a figure approached – it was none other than Andy.

“What brings you here?” Sam rebuked, “You’re not welcome here!”
