Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 436

"Mommy, am I doing the right thing?"

Sherry muttered with her head lowered.

Venus frowned instantly.

"Sober up! I'll arrange for a press conference immediately.Your life will be finished if the truth is leaked!"

She cast a glance at the unconscious Edgar on the bed and added, "Keep an eye on him.We can't let him leave this room: With that, she closed the door with a bang and left, leaving Sherry and Edgar in the room.

Sherry walked barefoot to the bedside.

Gazing at Edgar's face, she uttered, "How unfortunate, Mr.Royden.Your fiancée might be dead in the ocean by now: Due to jet lag, Jean was not tired at all when night fell.She stared alertly at the man until the latter was awakened by a sudden rocking of the cruise.

He covered his chest with one hand and moaned in pain.

Jean quickly grabbed a broom as she observed his reaction.

The goons chasing after him had been searching for him outside for the past two hours.

"I'm still alive?"

His face was as white as a sheet.

He stared fixedly at Jean with his dark blue eyes for a while before he wore a handsome smile and said, "You saved me? "I didn't intend to save you.I just don't want someone to die in my room before we disembark tomorrow morning.

You may leave now.

That was all that Jean could do.

The man's eyes were as clear as the stream.

He nodded and propped his hand on the shelf beside him to stand up slowly.

"I understand you're worried I'm a bad guy.Don't worry, I won't cause you trouble.I'm not that kind of person"

Then, he stood upright and gave Jean the most prestigious salute in his country.

Not only that, he passed a small gold token to her and said, "We might not meet again after the ship docks.If fate allows us to meet again, I'll repay your kindness’

With that, he opened the door and walked out.

After he left, Jean locked the door immediately and placed her ear at the door.

Silence was restored in the aisle, and she could only hear the sound of waves hitting the cruise ship.
