Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 786

After Felicity went upstairs, she still felt that something was amiss. Edward's cousin had appeared in the Hughes Family at this time, it made people feel that he did not have good intentions.

Not knowing whether Edward knew about what had happened or not, Felicity decided to call him and let him know.

"Hey!" In front of his closest kin, he did not seem to conceal his weariness, which made Felicity's heart tender.

"Edward, there is a guest at home. Your grandmother said that he is your uncle's son, do you know what he wants?" Felicity immediately replied.

"Jack is here?" Edward really didn't know, but his tone immediately revealed a hint of gloom.

"Yeah, could he have some sort of motive for his sudden visit?" Right now, Felicity didn't have any good impression on John's family, so she wanted to remind Edward to be on his guard against them.

"I'II come back earlier tonight. Don't worry, if he really has some purpose, I'll investigate it thoroughly!" Edward knew what she was worried about, and his tone became a bit gentler as he comforted her.

"Alright, then go back to work. I'll hang up first!" Felicity said gently.

"Where did you go? Who did you meet?" Edward suddenly asked.

Felicity was a little startled: "How did you know I went to see someone?"

"The bodyguards I've assigned to you are not just for show." The man's tone was filled with a hint of conceit.

That's right, she had almost forgotten about the few bodyguards, did he receive a message the moment she went to see Lily?

"No wonder you were so cooperative." Felicity muttered, but she was still very happy.


Edward laughed softly, "Speak, what happened? Why do you want me to say I love you?"

"Oh! I'll explain this to you when you get back. You should get busy with your work first!" Felicity's beautiful face was flushed red.

After a while, she still could not explain herself clearly.

"Alright, tell me about it when I get back!" Edward was still very concerned about her and was also interested in her.

"'Yes!" I'm hanging up!" After Felicity hung up the phone, she could not help but smile.

Felicity raised her hand to look at the time. It was already 4 o'clock, she wanted to accompany the old lady to pick up the children.

As expected, the old lady was preparing to leave.

"Grandma, I'll go with you!" Felicity hurriedly stepped forward and said.

The old lady looked back at her and said in a serious tone, "It will be better if you don't go out randomly and be blown by the wind. Be careful not to have a headache. Just wait at home. I’ll bring the children back."

The old lady's concern forced Felicity to give up. She could only nod her head, "Alright!"

The old lady sat in the butler's car and went out. At that moment, the snow outside was falling heavily, and a cold wind blew, causing Felicity to wrap her clothes tighter.

"Cousin- in- law, can you show me the house? This is my first time to be here, so I'm not very familiar with the environment." A warm voice politely came from behind her.

Felicity turned around and saw Jack walking out from the small living room with a gentle smile on his face.

Although his smile was very friendly, Felicity did not want to get too close to him. She could only let out a dry laugh: "You can take a look yourself, I still have work to do, sorry!"

After Felicity finished speaking, she turned around and quickly walked toward the stairs.

Seeing that she had turned around and was about to go upstairs, Jack made a dejected "Alright" sound. Then, he slowly walked up the stairs.

Felicity never thought that he would actually follow her to go upstairs. Her expression changed slightly, and she turned to look at him.

"Cousin- in- law, why aren't you calling me Jack?"

"Alright, beside us is Edward Hughes's study, other than the servants who go in every morning to clean, no one else is allowed in." Felicity was really afraid that Jack would take advantage of the fact that there were not many people in the house to casually look through Edward's things.

Jack looked startled, then laughed: "Cousin- in - law, you misunderstood me. I do not have any intention of visiting his study. I just want to see which guest room I should sleep in tonight. Cousin- in- law, can you tell me which room I should sleep in?"

Felicity's expression froze for a second, she pointed to the row of rooms beside her: "Those three are all guest rooms, you can pick one by yourself."

"Alright! Thank you, cousin- in-law!" Jack was extremely polite, causing her to not know what to do.
