Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 114 Pain

He behaved as if he could not remember the matter last time. Jean was stunned for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”

The car had stopped at the traffic light. Sky glanced at her with hostility. “Mr. Turner has always been nice to female students, especially the pretty ones.”

Jean narrowed her gaze. Then, Sky turned the car into a secluded path. The surrounding was dark as there were fewer streetlights. Jean keenly sensed his disdainful gaze on her. “Mr. Wilton, what do you mean?”

“Why? Are you still denying the things you did?”

He suddenly stepped on the brakes and gripped Jean’s wrist tightly, forcing her to look at him. “You stayed in a man’s house for a few hours late at night and made out with your ex-husband in public. Stop pretending you are better than everyone else!”

Jean immediately retreated from him. She tried to open the door, but it was locked. Sky looked at her beautiful face like a beast waiting to pounce on its prey. “Edgar is so blind. How could he abandon a beautiful woman like you and choose an idiot like Gigi? Ha…”

Jean gritted her teeth and met his sinister gaze. “If you do anything to me, I will destroy your reputation in the design industry.”

“Oh, is that so?” Sky tut-tutted and took out a camera. “I guess you don’t know yet. But people like you can never work in the design industry without my permission.”

Jean searched around for something to defend herself. However, it was too late. She suddenly felt dizzy and found her vision blurred.

In her hazy state, she vaguely heard Sky chuckling. “You are quite strong. Other women would have fainted by now.”

No! Somehow, Jean found the strength to shove herself against the car window.

She fought against drowsiness with everything she had. Her movements aggravated the wound on her neck. Then, intense pain assailed her, making her mind instantly alert.

The pain overpowered the drowsiness from the unknown drug. “You…”

She charged at Sky, grabbed his head, and smashed it hard against the steering wheel.

He did not expect Jean to be able to fight back and became careless. By the time he thought of retaliating, he had already sustained a bleeding wound on his forehead.

Jean moved quickly and wrapped the seatbelt around his neck before he could react. At the same time, she trapped him in his seat with her limbs. “I only need to exert a little force to kill you.”

She tightened the seatbelt around his neck, causing him to start losing consciousness. “Let… Let go!”
