Chapter 454

Meanwhile, the emergency treatment for Jean had ended.

After making sure that there were no remaining toxic chemicals in her stomach, the doctor showed Edgar the report results.

"It's a chemical normally used to make the victim lose consciousness.It won't affect her; by the way, she's pregnant."

"Are you sure?"

Edgar could hardly hide the joy he felt.

At that moment, all he wanted was to hold Jean close to him.

"Yes, but I suggest doing a thorough check-up at the gynecologist.It's still in the early stage.You have to take note of her emotions and physical condition’ The doctor gave him a few more pointers and went downstairs with Miles to get the payment done.

Standing right next to the bed, warmth slowly diffused in Edgar's gaze, which gradually became gentler.

He looked at her sleeping figure and stretched out his hand.

Before reaching her, he froze mid-air because Charles and Sara barged into the room.

More critically, they had weapons in their hands — Sara was holding a modified military knife.

"You're Edgar, aren't you?"

She appraised him, not making any attempt to hide her approval.

"Charles, you weren't lying — he really is good-looking."

As soon as Charles ensured no one else was in the room, he put his weapons away and extended his hand to Edgar.

"Mr.Royden, we finally met."

"You should be having dinner with people from Pinnacle Group right now."

Edgar knew Edbert's usual plan.

Now that Edbert had gained the upper hand, he would make full use of it by leaving a good impression on Bernard.

"He was, but we left as soon as Charles received your message."

Sara smiled brightly at him.
