Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 217 Wait for Him to Come Back

Before Jean could finish, Mr. Coleman went over and interrupted them. “Mrs. Ludwig, it’s getting late. It’s time to attend the banquet.” Mr. Coleman smiled and looked at Jean meaningfully.

His expression was one that pleaded for her to not continue speaking. Jean furrowed her brow. “Mrs. Ludwig, go ahead. I need to get some groceries.” “Alright, since I have something on today. Come visit me with Benny next time, alright?”

Jean smiled but didn’t say anything. Through the full-length window, Jean watched plainly as Farra got into the Ludwig family’s luxury car. With her attire, the jewelry she wore, and the bag she was holding, nothing on her was what Jean could afford.

She still had to think of how to revive Eyer Group in this period of time. To her, love was a luxury.

…

As soon as Edgar’s plane landed, he received pictures and text messages from Jean. Her manner of speaking was calm as usual. There was even an unfamiliar feeling. He could feel her distance and aloofness just from those few messages.

‘Susan has taken some soup. The doctors came to check on her and instructed her to take her medicine on time.’ ‘Susan just fell asleep. The nurse’s aide is here.’

Every message was like a robotic report. But Edgar stared at the messages and pictures for a long time. “Mr. Royden, it’s time to get down.” Miles reminded him. Edgar kept his cell phone and walked into the hotel.

After the meeting ended, the first thing he did was take out his cell phone, but there wasn’t any news. The man wrinkled his brow tightly. He found a quiet spot and dialed Jean’s number. “Hello?”

Jean had just fallen asleep. She groped in the dark for her cell phone and went to the corridor. “Susan is asleep.”

Edgar was startled for a moment. He had forgotten that there was a time difference.

“I…”

“You don’t have to worry. I asked the doctors and they said that she can leave tomorrow. I will handle everything.” She thought that he was worried about Susan.

Hearing her voice that was as calm as water, it was as if Edgar’s feelings were soothed.

“We might need to look for someone to cook after leaving the hospital tomorrow.” Jean was thinking about how to take good care of Susan.
