Chapter 157 Edward Was a Scapegoat
Since James saw Darren and Edward appear on the same occasion, he knew that this time he was completely defeated. Edward was famous for shielding someone he cares in S City. Others couldn't even say bad words about them.
Same as Edward, Ken also covered somehe wants to protect. If this thing was not about Jane, it was negotiable. However, between Jane and himself, who was Ken's more concerned person, James knew clearly.
James was silent and hesitated to speak.
The more Ken waited, the more impatient he became, "speak."
James hated himself. Why couldn't Edward hit him harder and knock him out?
In front of Edward, James dared not lie. He could only timidly say what happened at the lunch table. After hearing what he said, Ken said without batting an eye, "I thought it was a big deal. That's all?"
James was happy for a while. Is he saved?
Ken looked at Edward who sat on the opposite side and said with a spurious smile, "beating a dog depends on the owner. If you want to argue with me, just say it frankly. There's no need to make so many tricks because of this trivial matter."
Edward said coldly, "what kind of dog has what kind of owner."
Ken asked, "what do you mean?"
Edward asked in reply, "don't you know what you have done?"
Ken gradually withdrew the smile on his face, "I really don't know. Tell me."
Edward had long suspected Ken. He didn't mind confrontation with Ken, "what did you give Jane to eat on the night of the 19th?"
Ken completely didn't expect Edward to mention the night of the 19th. After thinking about it, he said expressionless, "there was so much to eat. Do you want to hear the names of the dishes?
Edward solemnly said, "she was drugged by someone."
Ken looked at Edward unblinkingly. They looked at each other. One had a black face all the time, and the other gradually lost his smile.
After a while, Ken said expressionless, "she was fine when she left me."
Edward said, "she happened to feel uncomfortable when she was with me."
Ken said without blinking, "do you think I framed you?"
Edward did not confirm or deny it.
Ken sneered, "I shouldn't have let her go if I knew she was drugged. Why would I let you take advantage of her?" After a pause, he added, "what are you getting at now? You got benefits, and now you still say such unreasonable words."
Edward's eyes color turned very dark, and he said in a deep voice, "if you have the guts, don't dare not to recognize it if you dare to do it."
Ken gave a self-deprecating smile, "I dare to admit illegitimate children. Do you think I'm afraid of this?"
Ken dared to act and dared to bear responsibility, especially in front of Edward, he was fearless.
Edward thought that the person who was most likely to give Jane medicine was Ken, but now it was not him.
Ken glanced at Edward coldly. He struck back and said, "I think it's your sperm that got into your brain. You drugged Jane and deliberately put the blame on me."
Edward remained cold face and he didn't say anything. He sneered at Ken's self-righteousness with his eyes.
After a while, Edward said, "stay away from her."
Ken said, "the more you say so, the more I want to be closer to her as close as possible, even a negative distance will do."
Edward said, "try it."
Ken smiled, "you ask me to try the rest?"
There was a light flashed at the bottom of Edward's eyes, as if he was proud, "one step faster than you."
Ken nodded with a smile and did not speak, obviously choking.
Edward was inexplicably happy. He stood up and walked out. When he passed James, James was obviously scared and retreated.
The door opened and closed. This time, only Ken and James were left in the private room. James finally breathed a sigh of relief, leaned over to take out the paper towel on the table, and cursed, "fuck, he means nothing to me..."
His head was right in front of Ken. Ken reached out and grabbed his hair. James suddenly lost his center of gravity and kneeled on the ground.
Ken pulled the man in front of him. He moved close to one of James' ears and asked in a low voice, "do you think you did the right thing?"
James couldn't straighten up his back and lay down in front of Ken's legs. He was like a real dog. His face was mixed with blood and sweat. He was embarrassed, panicked, and speechless.
Ken asked again, "do you know why I am angry?"
James shivered his lips and said, "I'm wrong, Ken, I really didn't want to frame Jane..."
Ken opened his mouth and interrupted him, "you take my words as a fart."
He already warned James not to tease Jane and not to try to win her favor. James didn't listen.
James wanted to die. Ken loosened his hair, and he didn't dare to stand up. James raised his head slightly and said, "Ken, I'm sorry. I don't dare anymore. Please forgive me once."
He couldn't see the expression on Ken's face but heard the familiar voice with the coldness, "get out."
James was grateful and was about to stand up with his hands pressing down on the tea table. Ken's voice came again, "from now on you have nothing to do with me. Don't let me hear you doing things in the name of me outside."
There was a pause as James got up. He just stood up on one leg. After hearing what Ken said, he slowly knelt down again, "Ken..."
Ken said, "you know my rules."
James was speechless. Ken didn't have many rules. They just need to be sensible. Now he knowingly violated the rule and made Ken lose face in front of Edward. It was not good for him to be shameless again.
James stood up and left quietly. Ken took out his mobile phone and called up.
It was not long before the phone was connected. Aiden's voice came, "hello."
Ken said directly, "who has a nasty hobby in private at that table on the evening of the 19th?"
Aiden paused obviously, "what's the matter?"
Ken said, "Jane was drugged that night."
Aiden was completely silent.
Ken said, "they are all your college classmates. I can't butt in. If it's inconvenient for you, I'll check."
Aiden asked, "how is Jane now?"
Ken said, "I don't know. Edward asked me about it and said it was at our party."
Aiden said, "I'll check."
......
Edward was at the next door. He did what he said. Edward broke Darren's friend's business. He came to compensate him. Darren's friend had a blessing in disguise and it was hard to describe how happy he was. Of course, Darren's friend had just seen that scene. He was also very afraid and he had a sense of asking a tiger for benefit.
During Edward's absence, Amy has been serving guests. Darren's friend didn't know why. He mistakenly thought Amy had an intimate relationship with Edward. He has been praising her and trying to find some common topics with her.
Edward understood his intention but didn't say it. Amy also understood and she pretended to agree with him.
After sitting for a while, Edward left first, and Amy went out to see him off. When they went downstairs and waited for the elevator, they happened to meet Jennifer, who invited a customer to play. Jennifer saw Edward, but Edward didn't see her.
The man next to Jennifer had seen much of life and said, "isn't that Amy?"
Amy was as famous as a celebrity in S City. Jennifer also knew who she was, but she had never seen her. It was hard not to be surprised to see Amy standing next to Edward today.
Jennifer arrived at the private room and settled the customer. Then, she hid in the bathroom and called Jane, "guess who I saw?"
Jane said, "God of wealth?"
Jennifer replied, "it can also be said that it's your God of wealth. I saw Edward!"
Jane was calm, "it sounds like I haven't seen him. Why are you so excited?"
Jennifer said, "when I was at Redmoon Club, I saw him with Amy Young. Amy, you know, was a particularly famous socialite in S City. I heard that if she going to a party, she would get seven digits payment. I only heard that she was beautiful, but I didn't see her in person. Just now I saw her in person, she was so beautiful. No wonder men miss her. I almost fell in love with her. Sure enough, your God of wealth was rich and powerful. If he wanted Amy to accompany him, she is willing to do."
