Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 510

On the way home, Jean would speak only when spoken to.Ben was stuck between the two of them.

It was the most uncomfortable he had been in a long time.He received a call from home when they touched down at the airport.

"I'll be heading off now.Let's figure out some options on how we can fix this."

He had no say in Jean choosing to stay or leave.

"I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."

Jean felt incredibly apologetic.

"Your company must have suffered some losses because of me’

"We're fine. Your safety is much more important.Okay then, don't hesitate to contact me if something comes up."

Ben glanced at her as if signaling something.

Jean nodded, understanding what he meant.

Their interaction was not unnoticed.

To him, it felt like there was something more between them.

"What were you guys talking about?" Edgar frowned.

He helped her lug her suitcases.

"It's got nothing to do with you.Jean spat out and walked out.

"But...Hadn't he gone to Louisville to save her with Ben? How could she treat both of them so differently?! Edgar caught up with her.He wanted her to explain.

But when he reached the entrance, he saw Rachel hugging Jean tightly, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Ms.Eyer! You scared me to death! I thought something terrible had happened to you.I was so afraid that...I'm so sorry!"

Her eyes were bloodshot.She clutched at Jean, refusing to let her go.

"I haven't been able to eat or sleep these few days.I was so afraid that something had happened to you."

"I'm fine.Don't I look okay to you? Not a scratch on me.Besides, there was no way you could predict this happening when you booked the tickets for me.Don't cry now.We're in public.Aren't you embarrassed?"

Rachel's face was covered with snot and tears.

"Next time, I'm going with you! I'll never let something like this happen to you ever again!" She sobbed.

Her concern warmed Jean's heart.
