Chapter 474
Up until she was about to disembark, Jean felt that she was having an illusion.
How can Edgar be so gentle and considerate? He had taken responsibility for all the luggage and had even instructed Miles beforehand to arrange for a driver to pick them up so that Jean would feel comfortable.
When Jean got into the car, the temperature of the car seat was just right.
Even a rock would be warmed up.
"Susan has prepared food at home.Come back to my place first.I'll send you home later, alright?"
Jean's gaze was directed outside the window.
"Why are you asking me since you've already decided?"
A deep meaning flickered across Edgar's eyes as he instructed the driver to go.
"Is your stomach feeling better?"
He poured warm water from a thermos flask and handed it to her.It was as if Jean was electrocuted when their fingers touched.
The throbbing feelings that she shouldn't be having surged again.
Jean immediately frowned.
"It's fine" She took the cup and drank it in one go.
No matter how she lost her temper and got angry, it seemed like Edgar didn't feel anything.
He accommodated her without complaint and was more attentive than the nanny at home.
There were a few times when Jean almost couldn't control her emotions.
Her words were on the tip of her tongue, and she couldn't help but swallow it back down.
When the door opened, Susan had prepared everything.
On the dining table were Jean's favorite dishes.
There were savory, sweet, hot, and cold dishes.
There was even ice cream for her.
"I was afraid that...you would be unwell if we ate outside.Susan made these at home, so you can eat in moderation."
He took off his coat, and his voice was deep and icy as usual.
But it was easy to hear the trace of indulgence that couldn't be hidden.
It was as though she could do anything she wanted in his scope of care.
Jean didn't know why but she was very taken by it today.
It had been a long time since trouble befell the Eyer family that someone had taken care of her like this.
She had carried everything on her own.
What Edgar did unexpectedly lowered her defenses.
"Aren't you eating?" She asked as she sat down.
It was as though Edgar never thought that she would ask him such a question.
His eyes were colored with mirth as he walked over and pulled out a chair before sitting across from her.
"Lam.I'll eat with you.Only Miles, who was at the back carrying the luggage in, knew that his boss hadn't eaten properly for a whole day since Edgar had been taking care of Jean.He hadn't managed to take care of himself.But Miles could only let such words stay in his head.He didn't have the nerve to say it.
Once the things were packed, Miles hesitated again and again before he walked behind Edgar.
"Mr.Royden, don't forget this.Miles handed Edgar a black box.There was a faint aroma of peppermint.It smelled pretty good.
Jean raised her brows.
She was slightly curious.
Only to see Edgar put it on the side of the chair as he avoided Jean's searching gaze.
Jean took a bite of the food and paid no attention to it.
Once she was full, she was hit with a wave of sleepiness.
Edgar, who was sitting across from her, got up at once.
"The guest room is empty.Will you be staying tonight?"
He was different from before! Jean suddenly sat up straight.
She looked up at him.
"Edgar, can you speak properly?"
The man was startled.
What did he do wrong? This was what Nathan had taught him.
And along the way, he felt like these means were pretty effective.
Jean sitting and eating comfortably in his house was solid proof.
But he couldn't understand the situation before his eyes.
"What did I do wrong?"
