Chapter 456

He looked at her adoringly.

Jean pursed her lips long before replying, "I don't need anything."

She had been sleeping for the entire day and hadn't drank any water since waking up.

Hence, her voice was hoarse, and her pale face accentuated her weakness.

Edgar frowned icily.

The comforting words in his mind were stuck in his throat as he knew full well that he could not make up for her sadness.

"I know that this is a good outcome.I don't have to continue my lie.We don't owe each other anything after this, and I won't be obstructing you from any potential relationships with other women."

With that, tears streamed down her face helplessly.It broke Edgar's heart to see her like that.

"All you need is rest now.I'll ask Susan to send some soup over — just wait a bit."

He quickly walked away after that.

Finally, the ward regained some silence.

Jean leaned against the pillow and tried to recall George's facial features.

Then, she took her phone out and texted Joseph, who replied swiftly.

"I will check it out, but it will take a few days to get concrete results"

Jean heaved a sigh.

"Thanks"

The police had stopped investigating that case, but Joseph was willing to help her privately.

In the next few days, Jean did nothing of significance; she just stayed at the hospital and rested.

When doctors or nurses checked on her, she vehemently refused to do any further check-ups.

Everyone thought it was because of grief.

Sara was the only one who occasionally looked at her with a conflicted expression.

However, whenever Jean was free, she would message Sara about how happy she was, slowly alleviating Sara's guilt.
