Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 509

George reached for the elevator button and turned to look at her.

Once they entered the elevator, George couldn't help but sneer at her, "I told you to watch what you say and do, but that didn't mean that you should just lie down and let people walk all over you.You're the heir-to-be of the Royden family.You don't need to be that cautious"

Xena stayed silent.She heard what they said at the hospital the other day.She had plenty of evidence.But she could not speak out.

Rather, she did not dare to.

How would she survive if this came to light? "I don't want to intern here anymore.Can't I just leave?"

She looked up at George hopefully.He had helped her plenty of times in the past.

She should be able to trust him.

George's eyes grew hard like flint.

"What do you think?"

He had shown her mercy before, but if she continued to play dumb, there was no need to keep her around.

While the elevator was still moving, he turned and pinned her against the elevator wall.

"You sent Mr.Edgar a text before he left, didn't you?"

"I did not!"

Xena immediately denied it.

George narrowed his eyes at her.

"I gave you the phone you're using.I know where you've been, what you're doing, and who you're talking to."

The blood in Xena’s veins ran cold.

"Naiveté."

George turned away.

"Are Edgar and Jean alive?" Xena asked meekly.

"Maybe."

After receiving a call from Edgar, Joseph immediately sent someone to escort them back.He began interrogating them as soon as they met.

"What happened after the plane crashed? How many people survive the crash? How did the three of you survive for the past four days?"

"She needs rest" Edgar said.

He led Jean around Joseph and the police officers that came with him, completely ignoring them.

Ben was no different.

Joseph frowned, "What is going on? Stop messing around.You have to..."

"Same here.No comment."
