Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 450

Winnie smiled and took a couple of steps toward him.

"I went to get you some fruits."

She placed the bag of fruits in front of him and smiled warmly at him.She was as gentle as the first time they had met.

Sam's anger dissipated immediately.

"You can't keep going out like that.It's going to cause us more trouble if the reporters see you!"

Sam was also worried about tipping the police off to him having woken up.

"I took precautions.I wore a hat and a mask."

Winnie peeled an apple for him and offered him a piece.

"I'm just worried about the lawyer"

Sam immediately frowned.

"I'm just worried about the enemies you've made doing business all these years.What if someone offers more money and the lawyer betrays you..."

This was a possibility.It triggered Sam's paranoia.He sat up.

Winnie gently prompted, "I think it'll be better if you hire a few more lawyers.Just to be safe"

She put down the knife and found Sam staring hard at her.She shook his head and smiled helplessly.

"The both of us are in the same boat.I, more than anyone else, hope you'll turn this around.If you felt I spoke out of place earlier, you can ignore what I said"

She stood up and started tidying up.She took the kettle and left the room.

Once the door closed, she let out a sigh of relief.She slipped out her phone and sent a quick text to Jean.

‘I've done as you instructed: At that exact moment, Jean was in a meeting with Robert Martin, the lawyer.She handed him her business card.

"I know that previously, you were sent by Royden Group to help me.This time, I'd like to hire you to help me with something else."

"This is..."

Robert looked perplexed.

"Ms.Eyer, does Mr.Royden know about this?"

"Of course, he knows.I wouldn't have dared to ask for your help otherwise."

Jean knew he would ask that.She had been prepared for it.There was no sign of nervousness whatsoever.Robert took the card from her.
