Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 64 Chapter 64 State a Price "But-" Sally wanted to continue, but Jean suddenly took her jacket off, revealing a blood-stained T-shirt underneath. She looked as though someone had strangled her. "What Ally said was true after all!" she gasped in shock as she stumbled a few steps backward.

She was so startled that she almost lost control of herself. Initially, she thought that Ally was just spreading rumors about Jean, so she chere to warn Jean, in repayment of a favor.

Nonetheless, Jean walked to the washroom nonchalantly to wash her hands. After Sally had finally calmed down, she wiped her hands and said, "How much strength do I need to pull an adult man from the van and destroy the evidence?" Sally tried to think logically. “B-But, the blood on your shirt!" "It was an accident, and that person would never sue me." She smiled and thanked Sally. "Next tdon't crunning to report such news to me. You might be implicated." Sally met her gaze and nodded slowly. At this moment, there were knocks on the door. Jean asked her to hide in the washroom so that others would not get the impression that they were close. If that was the case, Sally might be involved when they plan to take revenge on Jean.

However, she froze after opening the door - it was Ben. "Why are you-" "Why didn't you pick up my calls?" Fury flashed in his eyes as he appraised her from head to toe. After making sure that she was fine, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, he spotted the blood stains on her sleeves. "What's wrong?" He pulled her wrist closer and barged into the room. After taking a closer look and making sure that it was not her blood, he heaved a sigh of relief.

"It's just a minor accident. I can handle it myself," Jean explained before asking Sally to cout.

"Aren't you Ally's boyfriend?" she blurted out. As soon as she finished her question, she seemed to realize something and ran out of the room, covering her mouth as she went.

Seeing her running away, Jean closed the door with a wry smile.

However, Ben instantly stood up. "My relationship with Ally is not what you imagined. It's just that my family arranged forto meet her," he explained seriously, worrying that Jean would not believe his words. Then, he passed his phone to her to show his chat history with Mr. Coleman and Ally.

Regardless, Jean pushed his phone away. "That is none of my business." Ben's face fell when he heard her simple sentence.

Suddenly, what he had been wanting to say got stuck in his throat, and he no longer had the courage to tell her about it.

"Don't you have anything to tell me?” he asked with a last strand of hope.

She shook her head. "No." "In that case, carry on with your day. I won't bother you any further." He walked out of her room heavily.

Thud.

The door closed, but each of them had different thoughts in mind.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Jean suddenly looked fierce.

Truth be told, she was quite busy, and she did not have the tto deal with Ally. But now that she keeps provoking me, she shouldn't blme for taking action.

Outside the door, Ben took out his phone and called Mr. Coleman. "Look up something for me." Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Edgar walking to Jean's room with Miles.

"Mr. Royden?" Ben immediately becvigilant. Moments ago, he heard from the employees of MON & Co. that Jean was being targeted by someone.

Now that he saw Edgar, he recalled the previous grudges they had and blocked the door of the room.

"You really are free, Mr. Ludwig." Edgar frowned. "But please stop blocking my way." He doesn't mind coming all the way here just for Jean? With a cold smile on his face, he ignored Ben and tried to walk past him.

Nevertheless, Ben did not give way at all. "Why are you still looking for her? You already have a new woman, so stop pestering her." "I'm not the only one having a new partner." With that, Edgar's sharp gaze fell on Ben again as he warned, "Stop blocking my way. The Ludwig family is so insignificant that I can't even be bothered with you." "What did you just say?" Contents belong to Anger flared up within Ben, as he prepared to throw his fist at Edgar.

Meanwhile, Edgar also refused to give in and signaled Miles to take a step back.

"If you'd like to fight, please go elsewhere." At this moment, Jean opened her door with a frown. "This is a public area, and both of you are adults. Don't you know to respect others?" Both of them slowly retracted their stance.

Ben quickly stood next to her and said, "Don't worry. If he dares to harm you, I'll fight him with my life!" Edgar's gaze darkened with displeasure.

Jean nudged Ben as she replied, "I know he's looking for me. You should go back first; I will call you if I need anything." Ben was about to say something, but she had already returned to her room.

Edgar looked at her coldly and indicated Miles to stay by the door.

Then, the door was closed.

Ben left furiously with his fists clenched tightly.

He believed that Jean hated Edgar to the core, but he did not trust Edgar.

How is it possible that he abandoned such a stunning woman like Jean and went for someone like Gigi? What if he regrets his decision and wants to win Jean back? In the end, Ben still felt anxious as he waited in his room, so he decided to wait outside Jean's room.

However, as soon as he opened the door, Ally stood right in front of him. She sobbed tearfully and said meekly, "Ben, something's up." On the other hand, in Jean's room, both Jean and Edgar sat opposite to each other, but neither of them broke the silence.

She remembered that they had never stayed in a room together like this.

As the terrible memories of her previous marriage resurfaced, she smiled repulsively to herself.

Nonetheless, she still poured him a glass of water.

When the ice cubes touched the glass, it resembled their relationship.

Looking at her calm demeanor, Edgar suppressed the odd feeling he had. "I would like to meet Mr. Oprah alone at fashion week. Can you helpout?" Jean could not help laughing when she heard that.

"Even though I know you're here because of that, it's still funny to hear it from you personally. She smiled at him. "My goal is to make Royden Group lose this project." "Just givea price." He rolled his thumb around his watch and leaned backward.

Jean arched her eyebrows when she saw that. She had seen this reaction before. Back when they were still! married, she had looked up all the news and videos related to him because she could not see him at home. Very well, he has taken my bait. She blinked.

"You made a huge promise at the press conference that you willdefinitely get this $-level project. If it fails, those old men would lose everything they have. I bet they won't let you off the hook easily." Her confident and proud smile was deeply etched into his memory.

He struggled with himself until her soft voice rang triumphantly. "How much is your pride worth, Mr. Royden?"
