Marriage Games with a Charming CEO novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Sweetheart 

At the hospital. 

In the office of the neurosurgery department. 

Alan Canning sat in front of Edmond Agos and asked pitifully. 

“Dr. Agos, can I… have my lunch box back?” 

Edmond put down his phone and pushed back the lunch box he had just used for taking photos. He looked at Alan with a hint of curiosity. 

"Did you eat chives because they can tonify your kidneys? " 

Alan was stunned for a few seconds, and then his face turned red. 

"It’s not like that. My girlfriend’s family sells fried Chinese leek dumplings for a living…” 

Edmond nodded and said, "Good. It’s good for your health.” 

Alan was embarrassed. Just as he was about to pick up the lunch box and leave, Edmond stopped him. 

"How did you convince your girlfriend to bring lunch to you? " 

"What? " 

Alan paused, scratching his head and explaining with a smile. 

"I didn’t ask her to do it. I am always busy working in the hospital, and my stomach aches because I don’t eat regularly. She feels bad for me, so she makes lunch herself and brings it over. " 

Feels bad? 

Makes lunch herself? 

Before leaving, Alan reminded Edmond. 

"By the way, Dr Agos. Last time I ate too much and gave you my lunch. Please keep it a secret. My girlfriend is coming to the hospital for a physical examination next Monday. If you run into her, please don’t tell her! " 

Alan left. 

Edmond turned his head with a serious expression. 

He once again recalled the time when Eli Preston brought lunch to Alicia Casey and called her ‘sweetheart’. 

How romantic. 

Although their marriage was fake, and they agreed to not interfere with each other’s private life after getting married, Edmond felt somewhat annoyed and unhappy when he saw his wife being so close with another man. 

After a moment of silence, he lowered his head and picked up his phone to make a call.
