Chapter 451

Edgar feigned nonchalance, turning around to look at Jean fondly.

They sat right next to each other, just like an ordinary couple.

Jean shifted to the side and heard the argument between the people in front of her.

"We can't carry out this case! Why are we always getting the worst?"

"I think the law firm takes too much commission."

"Shh! What if we are overheard?"

Jean recalled everything that had happened in the law firm earlier that day.

Did Edgar plan this out, or am! overthinking? Meanwhile, Edgar looked at her with a ghost of a smile on his handsome face.

After those people got off the bus, he didn't explain himself.

At the following stop, Jean also alighted and walked away from the bus stop, ignoring Edgar's tail.

She took a few steps forward before turning around.

"When did you realize?"

Edgar's expression became colder, but he replied warmly, "Since your return.Upon hearing that, Jean's expression immediately changed.I feel like all my plans have been seen through.it's so uncomfortable to be controlled and spied on.She took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"Let's talk’ Edgar's gaze darkened.

"Sure."

He had never been so compliant with her.He seemed to have become a completely different person at that moment.He matched her pace as he walked alongside her and kept a comfortable distance between them so she wouldn't feel pressured.

As time passed, the frown on her face eased.

They reached a river.

The breeze ruffled her hair slightly but didn't mess up her thoughts.

Looking at the water, she plucked up her courage and said, "I didn't tell you the truth because I didn’t know how to face you"

Edgar remained silent, but his expression clearly showed his attitude toward the matter.

Indifference and hesitance were apparent in his eyes, with the former stronger than the latter.
