Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 409

Chapter 409 Ruthlessly Exposed

Sherry looked up. Just as expected, she was absorbed by Edgar’s deep and cold gaze. She smiled gently and didn’t say anything. Jean furrowed her brows and struggled. “What are you doing?”

She tried her best to lower her voice to avoid attracting the attention of people around them. Could it be that he flew into a rage out of humiliation because she turned down his invitation, so he wanted to chase her out?

“What did she talk to you about?” “Sherry?” Jean was momentarily startled. She never thought that the two of them knew each other.

“No matter what she said to you, forget it all.” It seemed like there was something he was implying. He stared at Jean with a particularly complicated expression.

At this time, Kalel’s assistant walked out. Jean immediately shook Edgar off and went forward. The man wrinkled his brow and reached out to pull her back, but his hand grabbed at air.

Seeing Jean push her way forward, his cold expression intensified. Would he always look at her from afar like this?

“I knew that you would come. It’s because of her, right?” Sherry appeared silently on his right. She ignored his animosity and smiled indifferently. “Don’t worry. I’m good friends with Jean. I won’t fight over you with her.”

Edgar’s eyes shivered, but he didn’t say anything. His gaze was fixed on the figure not far away.

“We’ve known each other since we were young, and we talk about everything. We just lost contact for the past few years that I’ve been living abroad.” Sherry didn’t pause and continued, “I was planning to tell her about our blind date.”

Blind date?

Edgar sneered.

“Ms. Summer, you must be mistaken. It was just a business meeting.”

Sherry couldn’t quite maintain the smile on her face.

She knew that Edgar was hard to approach, and she knew that he had a short temper, but she never thought that he would disgrace her to her face.

He didn’t look at Jean with the same icy expression.

“Furthermore…”

Edgar suddenly leaned close to her.

Staying within the boundaries, what he said to her was as cold as a blade. It made Sherry completely stunned. Her hands grew cold, and she couldn’t come to her senses for a long time.

Jean walked around and only heard Kalel’s assistant’s opening remarks.

The general meaning was that Kalel was stuck in traffic and would arrive in half an hour, so they asked the guests to keep calm.

Jean could only turn and walk back.

She didn’t see Edgar’s figure, only Sherry standing alone with a pale face, as if she had been frightened by something.

“Are you alright?”

Sherry nodded furiously. The smile between her red lips was awkward and helpless. “I… I suddenly have something to do. I’m going to leave now. Have fun.”

It didn’t hit Jean for a while.

“Ms. Eyer.” A voice rang beside her. Hugo had walked past other people to come to her.

Jean was bewildered, and it was shown on her face. “I thought you gave me the invitation because you’re not interested in parties like these.”

Had she taken advantage of him?

There was an exasperated smile on Hugo’s face. “Did it ever occur to you that I wanted to invite you to come with me?”

“What?”

Music started to play at that time and blocked out what Hugo said.

While they were speaking, Sherry held her bag and quickly left the lavish banquet from the side.
