Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 188 Chapter 188 Engagement? Jean feigned ignorance and smiled. “Mr. Royden, I don't quite understand what you mean. However, it seems we can no longer continue our negotiation. You should figure out how you can explain to her." While Edgar could easily destroy Jean whenever he wanted, Jean could use the Reece family to ruin his peace. Sam was shocked to hear Edgar had given a lucrative project to the Eyer Group. Thus, he sent Gigi to find out what had happened.

Although Jean may not be as astute as Edgar in business, she understood women much better than him. "Edgar, open the door!" Gigi continued shouting and almost slammed herself against the door.

However, Winnie gently pulled her away. "That's enough. Lower your voice. There are many prominent people nearby." "So what? Who knows what tricks Jean had pulled this tto make Edgar give her such a large project? That shameless b*tch. I'll..." However, the door opened before Gigi could finish speaking. Contents belong to Jean glanced at Gigi and said, "Ms. Reece, you should watch your mouth. You could be charged with defamation. Furthermore, you have ongoing court cases, so take it easy. Otherwise, who knows when the police would cknocking on your door again." Gigi's expression turned livid. She was not as smart or eloquent as Jean. Thus, she had no choice but to watch Jean leave.

Then, she dashed into the meeting room. "Edgar, why must you do this? It's bad enough that you returned that bankrupted company to her. Why must you also give her such a large project? Do you still have feelings for her?" "Are you done speaking?" Edgar responded indifferently. He was unbothered by the Reece family's threat. However, Gigi was pregnant with his child. It was annoying to have to keep hearing her complaining noisily before him.

"Edgar, I don't wish to argue with you, but you are too close to Jean. Don't you know what others would say? How can you not consider my feelings?" Gigi lowered her head and shed a few tears.

Edgar could not bear to speak harshly when she seemed so pitiful. "It was only about work. There was nothing else." His tone remained calm as he walked past her. Gigi sniffled and looked up shyly at him. "Is that true?" Edgar did not respond. Then, Gigi flung herself into his embrace and said, “That's alright then. While I was rushing here, I heard Jean was planning to get engaged to Ben soon. Thus, it would be damaging to your reputation if there were any rumors about you and her." "She's getting engaged?" Edgar slowly clenched his fists. Gigi leaned into his embrace and replied, "Yes, I bumped into Mrs. Ludwig on my way here. She wanted to bring Jean to try wedding dresses...” Since there was no response from Edgar, Gigi gradually stopped crying. No man would want a woman who has been with another man. Edgar is a brilliant and prideful man. He would never want a used good like Jean! Meanwhile, Ben brought Jean to meet Farra outside the summit venue. Farra was full of smiles the instant she saw Jean and refused to let go of her hand. "We haven't seen you since Benny was discharged from the hospital. His father and I miss you so much. Why do you never cto visit us?" Jean turned to Ben for help. She had refused Farra's invitation many times. The main reason was Jean did not know what to say if she were to meet them.

Thus, she had thought about it and felt it was better not to meet. However, she did not expect Farra to call the way here. "What tdoes the summit end? I'll wait here for you. We must have dinner together!" Farra grew fonder of Jean the more she looked at her.

Ever since the racing accident, Ben stopped racing and focused on managing his family's business. It was like a dream ctrue for Farra and her husband.

Furthermore, Farra believed Jean had influenced Ben in this change. Thus, she could not help but feel pleased whenever she saw Jean. In fact, she wished Jean and Ben would get married as soon as possible.

She did not care what the rumors said. All that mattered was Ben continued to work hard. Moreover, she heard Edgar never lived with Jean when they were married.

It seemed their marriage was only in name. "About that..." Jean smiled and nudged Ben with her elbow. Ben grinned and said, "Mom, Jean won a big project today and will be busy until late. Let's have dinner next time." Meanwhile, Edgar was sending Gigi off and cout to see Jean chatting happily with Ben and Farra. Gigi looked up at Edgar and said, "See, I was right. Edgar, you should stop spending talone with her." She deliberately instigated Edgar. Edgar's eyes turned cold. He sent Gigi to the car and immediately headed toward Jean. "Ms. Eyer, we are not done with the negotiation." His expression was stern, and his tone brood no argument. Jean knew he was deliberately targeting her. Thus, she frowned and replied, "Mr. Royden, I know you're a workaholic. But that doesn't mean you can stop others from resting." Jean argued back without hesitation. However, Edgar reached out to drag her away. He would not allow anyone to disobey him.

Seeing that, Ben immediately stepped forward and stopped Edgar from grabbing Jean. He then put himself between Edgar and Jean before saying, “Mr. Royden, you heard what she said. She doesn't want to negotiate now." Even if it is a work matter, he should give her tto rest. But he is using work as an excuse to make Jean go with him. “It's none of your business." Edgar frowned deeply. His tone was imbued with annoyance.

"I am Jean's... Friend. Her matter concernstoo." Jean saw the tension between Edgar and Ben and said quickly, "It's alright. Mrs. Ludwig, let's meet and chat another time." Then, she patted Ben's shoulder. "It's fine."

It's only Edgar trying to annoybecause he cannot stand seeinghere. "You should send Mrs. Ladwig home," Nean said to Ben softly and ETT. pushed him away. Then, she turned to face Edgar coldly. "what do you want to talk about, Mr. Royden? Let's go." Edgar gritted his teeth and said, "You should see how fast your expression changed." How can she be smiling with the Ludwig family but treatcoldly? Meanwhile, Jean grumbled softly to herself and entered the venue. Based on the schedule, they had to stay in the hotel opposite the summit venue for four days and three nights.

It was to allow companies that planned to collaborate to arrange a tto meet, understand each other better, and advance their projects.

That meant no matter if Jean disliked seeing Edgar, she had to bear with him for a few days. Furthermore, she needed to figure out a way to hire suitable workers for her company.

Her mind was busy thinking about those things, and she suddenly forgot the sullen man beside her. "What does the Ludwig family want from you?"

Edgar asked coldly as soon as they entered the elevator. "It's none of your business." Jean sounded e apnoyed as she pressed a floor m number. "Are you going to get engaged with Ben?" Edgar stared at her. Jean could not understand what he was thinking. Farra only cto see me. Does he have to think so much into it?

However, Jean did not feel like explaining. Thus, she chose toremain silent. After all, Edgar would in never believe anything she said. Unfortunately, that made Edgar even more furious. "Jean!" X
