Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 167 Chapter 167 Inexplicable Ben was stupefied. He just looked on as Edgar took Jean away. "What are you doing, Ben? Chase them!" Sonny grimaced and called out. Ben stared at Edgar's receding figure. He was hesitant. "Sonny, was I given a blood transfusion on the day of my surgery?" Sonny nodded, "Oh, yea. It was Jean..." Ben didn't need to know the details. He was able to connect the dots. He owed Jean a lot from this racing accident. After the surgery, he desperately looked for Jean, but his efforts were in vain.

He felt dejected until the hospital director told him Jean had passed out from losing too much blood from the blood transfusion. If Edgar hadn't intercepted and taken her away in time, Jean would have languished.

He stood there and closed his eyes in woe. Edgar was right. He shouldn't let Jean risk her life for him. Jean felt a stinging pain in her arm when she opened her eyes again. "What are you doing!" She painstakingly pushed away the person who was drawing her blood. She looked up again and was not surprised to see a familiar face. "Why won't you stop bothering me, Edgar Royden?!" The man stood up, walked over to the nurse, and asked, "Is it enough?" The nurse who drew her blood nodded, “Enough." Then, the nurse left with Edgar's permission. Jean glared at him defensively.

Edgar explained, "You passed out during the training, so I sent you here to run a test on your blood to find out the cause. It's better to be safe than sorry, right?" He was concerned about her health. He was also curious to find out the reason for her sudden vomiting. Contents belong to Jean sneered, "How nice of you? How unbelievable the person who wanteddead the most actually cares about me." Didn't they hate each other? But why did he always look at her with his remorseful eyes? His ambiguity sickened Jean.

She removed the quilt on her body but was stopped by the man.

"You better not leave my sight until the results cout.” If the results cout as predicted...

Jean shove his hand away. "I've told you before, whatever happens tohas nothing to do with you." She would have been overjoyed if he had displayed the scare for her two years ago. But now, his concern made her sick in the stomach.

"Do you really hatethat much?" Edgar could feel her repugnance against him.

He put down his arms. "You still hatefor causing the bankruptcy of the Eyer group." His words took her back to the distressing past, and the pain reminded her to be level-headed. She raised her chin and stared back into his perusing eyes, "If it was you, can you see eye to eye with your worst enemy?" He had once regarded her as his lifelong woe.

Now, she thought of him the sway.

The man clenched his fists. He wanted to say something, but nothing cout. He had no way to explain. "Everything I do is to avenge my family. One day, I'll trample you under my feet and send you down to hell. Go ahead and sabotagewith your despicable means. I won't budge. Never." Jean clenched her jaw as she squeezed the words out of her teeth. She pushed Edgar away and walked past him. She realized she was in the lounge of the Racing Association.

She rubbed her slightly sore neck and quickly fled the scene. Edgar stood in the room and couldn't help but sigh powerlessly.

She hated him. Still.

After Jean left, she received a call from Sonny, who advised her to take a day off and not rush the progress. "I'm fine. I'll get two more hours of sleep tomorrow; it won't slow down the progress," Jean said while waiting. She had no idea how long she had lost consciousness, so she didn't return to the crew.

Ben winked in a gray car across the road.

Sonny immediately said, "Alright then. See you tomorrow." He hung up the phone and looked at Ben, sitting next to him, and Jean, who was getting on a bus across the road. He murmured, "I really don't know what you guys are thinking. Just cut the chase and say away!" Everyone can see that Ben had feelings for Jean, but it was unbeknownst to them if Jean felt the sfor Ben. "Sonny, I have something to tell you." Sonny looked at him. "Tell me." "After this game, I will announce my retirement regardless of Jean's results in the next game,” Ben said calmly.

"What?" Sonny knew this day would cwhen he learned about Ben's family background, but he didn't expect this day to cso soon. "Then, why do you still make Jean strive so hard?" Now that he had decided to call it quits, wouldn't Jean's efforts go down the drain? Ben lowered his eyes. He had always been courageous and hopeful, but he couldn't help but feel desolated this time. "Jean will surely take the blupon herself if I announce my retirement now. She would think she is the reason for all of these to happen, and I don't want her to think that." More importantly, he didn't want to let Jean be manipulated by Edgar again.

Absolutely not! He wanted to compete with Edgar in the business realm. He wanted to show Edgar that he could and would be the source of Jean's happiness.

Sonny stared at Ben for a while, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're the man." Ben had always shown himself as hasty and reckless. But his time, he was different. He was selfless and thoughtful for Jean's sake.

"No matter what, let's do our best to match up to Jean's efforts and give the crew a tribute." "Cool!" After Jean got home, she received a message from Ben.

"Are you home?" "Yes," She replied. Then, she dozed off from exhaustion.

Jean supposed someone called her But on her phone at bedtime. But shen was so sleepy that she pulled up the quilt, turned around, found a sweet spot, and left her phone aside. Miles put down the phone. "Mr. Royden, Miss Eyer didn't answer her phone." Edgar rubbed his temple and assumed she was already asleep.

"Send someone to protect her. Make sure nothing bad happens to her," The man said in his cold voice.

Edgar was reading the news on his laptop. The former Eyer Group had changed its nto nto Garrison Group, and the debts hadn't been paid off. Someone has just appealed to the court against Jean to settle her father's debt. Jean would likely end up in jail if she failed to pay back the debt within a specific tframe.

The man fixed his cold gaze on the screen.

Who did this? On the other hand, Jean had no knowledge what was going on. By the tshe woke up, it was already morning.

She was stopped by the Edgar's bodyguard as soon as she got on the corridor.

"Miss Eyer, Mr. Royden asked us to take you to the training ground and stay with you until the end of the game," The bodyguard said with a poker face. He didn't wait for Jean to respond and immediately opened the car door. There were three bodyguards in total; it was impossible for Jean to escape them.

She didn't anticipate Edgar to warrant such a ploy on her. Was this his gimmick to prevent her from racing for the Black Horse team? "Fine. What a jerk!" She was offered a free ride to the game. So, why not? Jean got into the car as instructed.

From a distance, Gigi and Andy were stalking Jean in the car. "It's unthinkable that Edgar actually sent bodyguards to protect her! X
