Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 90 It Is Useless for You to Attempt Anything

Jean was the first to leave after the meeting ended. The other interns looked at her with envy. Meanwhile, Kellan

Lincoln and Sally Lance obtained the final two placements and breathed a sigh of relief.

Kellan found Sally more approachable than Jean. Thus, he suggested with a smile, “Would you like to have dinner to

celebrate? It’s my treat!”

Initially, Sally planned to accept his offer, but she was concerned it might be awkward since there were only two of

them. “It’s better if we don’t, let’s have it another time with Jean.” Sally regarded Jean as a good friend.

Kellan considered and nodded. “Sure, next time then.” After that, they walked out of the meeting room together.

Kellan asked casually, “You seem to always be with Jean. Did you know each other before?”

If it were not for Kellan’s sincere gaze, Sally would have thought that he was ridiculing her like others. She blinked

and answered, “I only knew her after joining MON & Co.”

However, she did not say anything else. It was snowing gently outside. Sally took a deep breath and smiled as she

looked at the window. She saw a car waiting for her behind the building and hurried to it.

…

Meanwhile, in a penthouse on the top floor of Grand Ocean Tower. Edgar saw that the personal doctor had finished

examining Andy and asked, “How is he?”

“Mr. Royden, Mr. Shaw is a little unstable after this accident. He complained of tinnitus and dizziness. Thus, I

prescribed him some medication to calm his anxiety. Furthermore, he should rest for some time and avoid intensive

work.”

Edgar waved his hand dismissively, and the doctor retreated. Miles also left and closed the door behind him, leaving

only Edgar and Andy in the room.

Andy leaned against the head of the bed. “Don’t worry. It’s only a minor…”

However, he felt excruciating pain as he tried to adjust his position.

Edgar’s eyes turned solemn. “You should rest properly. I will get people to investigate the rest.”

“Investigate?”

Andy reacted instantly. “You mean someone conspired this?”

“It is only a suspicion.” Edgar looked into Andy’s eyes before opening the door and stepping out.

His leather shoes trod soundlessly on the luxurious European carpet. As he rode the elevator, Miles had already

sent off the doctor and was waiting for him by the car.

Miles opened the car door for Edgar and reported, “I’ve assigned people to investigate, but since it involves the

security of two national borders, it will take some time.”

“Sure, it’s not urgent.”

Suddenly, Edgar stared coldly at a figure some distance before him.

Miles followed Edgar’s line of sight and exclaimed, “Ms. Eyer?”

He had not noticed Jean until now. Edgar’s whereabouts were usually kept secret, so people would not know about

them.

“It’s my fault. I must have made a mistake.” Miles apologized immediately.

“Let’s go. She’s not here to see me.” Edgar waved dismissively.

A moment ago, he met Jean’s gaze. He believed she recognized his car, but she only appeared surprised for a

second before turning away.

The impersonal gaze made her seem even colder than usual.Edgar’s expression turned stern as he ordered,

“Drive.”

Then, his car traveled past Jean. He could not resist turning to see her face again. However, he only managed to

glimpse at the hem of her shirt.

In the past, Jean could have easily entered this establishment.

But now, the concierge will stop her before she can even step in.

Who is she meeting here? Is it Ben?

The question suddenly popped into Edgar’s mind, but he immediately suppressed it.

That is her business. It has nothing to do with me.

Meanwhile, Jean frowned when she saw Edgar getting into his car.

She could not understand why she kept meeting him wherever she went. It felt like bad luck to her.

Then, she glanced at the message on her phone and was about to reply when she noticed a high-end car from afar.

Soon, Winnie, dressed in a bright evening gown, walked out of the car holding Sam’s arm.

Due to Jean’s position, Winnie instantly noticed her when she stepped out. However, Sam was preoccupied with

something and did not look in Jean’s direction. He walked into the building straight away.

Winnie panicked and sprained her foot after walking only a few steps.

“Ouch, it hurts. I… I better rest in the lobby for a while. Sam, you go in first. I will enter later.”

“How can you be so careless?” Sam’s face immediately turned sullen. He had put a lot of effort into tonight’s event,

and many big shots were attending. Thus, he had to hurry in.Winnie kept calling out coyly in pain. The sight of her

frustrated Sam, and he wrenched his hand away. “You don’t have to go in.”

After all, he only needed Winnie to create an appearance of a happy marriage. If Carl came to this event, Sam

could use the chance to explain to him. That way, he could clear the threat and resolve Reece Group’s crisis.

Winne is usually very cooperative. Why is she like this today?

Thus, Sam abandoned her and walked into the elevator grumpily.

The instant the elevator door closed, Winnie got up to head outside. However, before she could do that, Jean

suddenly walked in, dignified as royalty.Winnie was shocked and called out loudly, “You! How did you get in?”

Only VIP members can get in here!

Jean looked at Winnie and laughed disdainfully. “You got in here, so why can’t I?”

What Jean said at the wedding kept sounding in her head.

Furthermore, a few people kept causing her trouble recently, so Winnie could not help but panic and feel afraid

when she saw Jean.

Winnie did not dare to look at Jean’s face, so she looked down and smiled awkwardly. “No, I didn’t mean it that

way.”Jean glanced at the expensive bracelet and bag on Winnie. “Sam seems to treat you well. Better than how my

father treated you.”

“Can you stop talking about your father?” Winnie awkwardly hid the bag behind her before dragging Jean outside.

Jean saw Winnie looking at her with a terrified expression as if she had seen a ghost. It made Jean want to laugh.

In the past, Winnie nearly became Jean’s stepmother.

“Jean, the past is the past. Can you stop tormenting me? I asked them, and they said they only stalked you due to a

misunderstanding, so don’t take it to heart.” Winnie spoke these words against her conscience. She had spent a

large sum of money to stop Sherman Hackley from bothering her.Now, thinking about how Jean had the advantage

over her, Winnie had no choice but to grit her teeth and swallow her anger.

Unfortunately for Winnie, Jean was not as gullible as before.

Don’t take it to heart?

She dares to say that.

Jean’s expression turned cold.

If I had not recognized Sherman’s underlings from that gang of people, I would probably be trapped in an

underground bunker now!

Winnie would not say this to me then.

“You can stop acting. I didn’t come here to listen to you talking about these. Instead, I need you to do something. If

you succeed, I promise not to mention my father before you again.”

She does not deserve to be associated with my father.

“What do you want me to do?”

Winnie widened her eyes. She was fearful of Jean, but she gritted her teeth and forced herself to explain, “Although

you messed up their wedding, Gigi is now Edgar’s wife. It is useless for you to attempt anything.”
