Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 893

When Edward said that, his eyes were fixated on John's face, with his extremely sharp eyes, he naturally did not let go of the expression on John's face that was about to collapse, and his entire body was shivering uncontrollably.

Jane also raised her head and looked at Edward, but she did not know anything, so she was simply listening to them chat.

"Really? Did Leonard say anything?" John was a cunning old fox. His reflection was amazing. His inner strength was strong enough to suppress his fear. He still wore a pained expression to hide his true emotions.

However, he still couldn't help but reach for a cup of tea to drink, pretending to be concerned and ask. A hint of a cold smile flashed past the bottom of Edward's deep eyes. In a situation where a person was nervous and uneasy, he would usually use something to cover himself, it was a human's natural instinct. Thus, he believed that there was something wrong with John, and it was something that even he himself was worried about.

However, Edward said lightly: "Forget it, it's all in the past now. It's rare to see uncle today, let's talk about other things."

John tensed up, waiting for him to finish speaking. But in the next second, Edward changed the topic, which made him unable to release his tensed breath, making his old face flush red.

He could feel that Edward seemed to be tempted. Heh, he had indeed grown up, and became a deep- minded man, causing others to be unable to see through him.

From the moment Edward entered the door, he had always held onto the power of his speech, while John was always on the passive side, causing John to have the impulse to let go of his hand and leave.

"Uncle, do you still blame me?" Drinking some tea and eating a few mouthfuls of vegetables, Edward suddenly spoke out again, and brought up another topic.

John was originally angry, but after hearing his question, his tone naturally did not adjust to his best state of mind. Thus, he said with a little emotion: "I would not dare to hate you. I know the mistakes I made in those days. I made them myself. You don't have any psychological pressure."

Edward laughed blandly, "I understand Uncle's feelings, so I won't fuss over it too much!"

Jane's complexion continuously changed from red to white. When he mentioned that she drugged his wine five years ago, she immediately stiffened like a log and didn't dare to say a single word. She was now so regretful about it.

John's heart trembled, he understood Edward's words, and it contained a lot of meanings, thus Edward was telling him, that he understood the meaning of having his great authority being taken?

These words had a different meaning to them. It was as if he was comforting him, but also seemed to be warning him of something.

He didn't know if it was due to the malicious intent, but he could tell that each word was a collision of blades.

"Jane, what are you sitting there for? Hurry up and offer your brother Edward a toast. Apologize!" John

did not want to continue with the topic at hand. Hence, he immediately told the dumbstruck Jane who was beside him.

Jane was startled, she immediately raised her wine cup and looked at Edward, her voice was gentle: "Edward, please forgive me for being so young and ignorant, I toast to you!"

Edward took the wine cup and lightly touched his lips, showing his courtesy. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Jane, since you've grown up, you definitely won't make the same mistake again. As your brother, I still have to remind you that making mistakes is not scary when you're young, but it is terrible when you're mature and clear-minded, and you still make the same mistake!" The purpose of Edward's visit today was to wake up the families of this group of ambitious wolves and warn them not to think about taking anything from him.

The hand Jane was holding the wine cup with, suddenly trembled, and a few drops of the wine actually splashed out of her cup.

Edward's words made her panic, and her hands naturally trembled. It was just that, in John's eyes, her panicked expression made his expression instantly darkened.

"Jane, did you not eat this morning? You can't even hold the wine steadily, why aren't you thanking your brother for his reminder?" John immediately taught her a lesson.

Jane knew that her previous actions had displeased John, and she was so shocked that her face paled. She quickly raised her head and drank all of the wine, enduring the pain in her stomach as she said softly, "Thank you, Edward, for the reminder, I will pay special attention!"

Edward exchanged glances with Larry who was eating at the side, as if they were sure of one thing. The previous case where the company leaked information was related to Jane.

Jane sat down; her hands were still trembling. She must have some ulterior motives, so naturally she could not act magnanimously.

After Edward purposely reminded her, she began to feel afraid.

"Edward, grandpa and grandma are doing well, right? I also plan to return home in a few days to visit them." John realized that no matter what topic they were discussing, it made him feel dangerous and he also felt that Edward was unfathomable. No one dared to underestimate his existence anymore, thus, he immediately changed the topic to the two elders, believing that the two elders were Edward's most respected elders, so he couldn't possibly be picky about it.

Edward said indifferently: "Grandmother is still healthy, Grandfather's health is not as good as before. If uncle means really serious, you should return home to visit them."

"I am truly ashamed. As their son, I have always made them feel sad and disappointed. I don't even have the face to go back and see them." John mocked himself, but his heart was still filled with resentment.

"As parents, no matter how big of a mistake their son makes, they will definitely not take it to heart!" Edward still spoke in the same indifferent tone.

"You're right, Edward. You've also become a father. Time flies. Your two children must be really cute." John had finally found Edward's weakness, so he asked with a smile on his face.

Edward's expression clearly changed, but very quickly, he started to laugh lightly: "Yes, they are all very obedient and sensible, making me feel a lot less worried."

"I also think that I should be able to see these two children. When I return home, must definitely see them." John's words seemed to reveal some of his thoughts, causing his expression to become even more unsightly.

"Alright, when you return, you will naturally be able to see them!" Edward's heart was cold, but his expression did not change.

Hearing about the children, Jane's face turned pale again. She had the nagging feeling that she was the one who had given these two children to him. If she hadn't drugged her that night, Felicity would never be able to give birth to Edward’s children in her entire life, let alone having the chance to be pampered by this man right now.

All in all, Felicity should be grateful for the chance that she gave her. But now, that woman appeared on stage like the mistress of the Hughes Family. Jane was so annoyed when Felicity ignored her and stepped on her.

"By the way, what's your wife's name?" John suddenly asked, and got to the point.
