Chapter 490
The man entered the space, stood nearby, and spent some time observing Jean.She had wrinkles on her brow even
while she was asleep.
“What happened to make you feel so uncomfortable?” He sat down, his deep eyes full of concern.
The phone screen lights up.
It was the message from Miles, “ I have already checked Mr.Royden.During the day, Ms.Eyer visited Liberate
Hospital for a prenatal examination.
All the test findings are normal.
People from the Eyer’s also verified essential data, and this hospital’s history is likewise quite clean.”
In other words, she had carefully considered her options before deciding on this institution.
What made her this upset then? Edgar thought of this deeply.He leaned down, “Jean, promise me, don’t give up our
child easily.Talk to me about anything”
He put up a lot of resistance when Gigi was pregnant since he felt he couldn’t handle the responsibilities of
fatherhood, let alone provide a loving home for his child.
He wanted to properly understand now that Jean was pregnant.
Since it was her, he was prepared to take care of her and the kid even though their official marriage had ended.He
cautiously sat up and made his way out of the room.
The person on the bed opened her eyes as soon as the door was shut; her face was incredibly pale, but her eyes
were lively and animated.
Her tears softly drenched the pillow cover as they rolled down her cheeks.
Following extensive inquiries, Mr.Royden formally freed the suspect.
All relevant responsible parties were actively assisting the police.
After a thorough investigation, it was discovered that Edgar was not the only one responsible for the project finance
leak; rather, someone else was actively framing Edgar from behind the scenes.
Two directors and the senior management of the firm claimed responsibility and resigned shortly after the legal
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdepartment created the necessary documentation.
They acknowledge that everything was created by them in secret and were ready to accept full legal responsibility.
Miles went to have a look and thought something wasn’t right.
These employees had absolutely nothing to do with the incident during the initial investigation, but now they all
suddenly appeared and claimed they wanted to take responsibility, which was absurd.
“Mr.Royden won’t be seeing you anytime soon”
“Miles, you haven’t even informed Edgar.How do you know he doesn’t want to see us? Give this to your boss, and
I’ll assure you he will meet me.”
Mr.Collins handed over a contract.
His disdainful look genuinely irritates me.
Miles glared at them and sternly forewarned, “Do you think that if Mr.Royden forgives you, the matter will be over?
According to the crimes you committed, you will be sentenced to at least 15 years.You will spend the rest of your
life in prison”
“It will take that long?”
The manager, a woman, couldn’t help but exclaim.
However, those surrounding her immediately stopped her, “Miles, please stop cursing us like that, as we are all
employees of the same organization.Since we previously entered a guilty plea, the court will commute our
punishment as necessary.”
“When Mr.Royden was involved in a lawsuit before, why didn’t you have the same spirit?”
Miles countered bluntly, “Mr.Royden is busy handling your damages.You can go back and wait for news then”
He shut the door of the office.
Those lots are nothing but parasites.
Edgar treats them well, yet…
“What’s going on?”
The man sat at the desk, looking up at his assistant.
Miles moved over.He whispered everything that had just happened.
“Mr.Royden, I apologize.I should not have done that.”
Miles lowered his head, “But someone certainly bribed them! They want to seize this opportunity to clear the
mastermind behind the scenes”
And it has long been known who the genius behind the scenes is.
“It seems that Uncle Edbert is indeed better than me in winning people’s hearts.”
Edgar sneered self- deprecatingly.
“Bring it here, let me see.”
Miles gave it over reluctance.He observed his own president’s countenance in silence and saw that he didn’t appear
to be considering this issue at all.
“Mr.Royden, aren’t you angry?”
Edgar slowly scowled as he read the lines on the page.
Now that all his thoughts were on Jean and the kid, he gave them little thought.
“Talk to the legal team, and then let’s handle it? Edgar finished talking, grabbed his coat, and prepared to go. Miles
followed swiftly.
“Where are you going, Mr.Royden?”
“To cook dinner: He entered the produce market by himself for the first time in years.He purchased all of Jean’s
favorites and selected the day’s freshest produce.
A store owner yelled, “Do you want any more fish, sir?”
“My wife doesn’t like it, so no.”
With the produce bag in both hands, Edgar started his Car.
The older sisters from the produce market grouped together behind them, “She must be one woman to bag such a
wealthy, and attractive husband. Wonder what she’s like?”
“Well, whoever it is, she’s set for life”
With veggies in hand, Edgar went to Jean’s house but was locked outside.
The password was changed. He hesitated and dialed Susan’s phone, but no one picked up.
Guess I must ring the doorbell.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSimply put, he didn’t want to awaken her from her rest.
After some time passed, Ben arrived before Jean did to unlock the door.
Ben held the dessert he had just bought in his hand and said, “Why are you here?”
He frowned at the man on the steps, then glanced at the smart door lock, “Get out of the way.”
Edgar had a cold face, “Change the password…”
Ben entered the building by pressing the right password before he could finish speaking.
Jean descended from the second floor after hearing the sound of the door opening.
The lady appeared frail while being covered in a blanket.She frowned at the two men standing at the door, “Why
are you here?”
Edgar understood instantly.He was the uninvited guest.
Without asking any questions, he turned around and brought the fruits and veggies he had purchased into the
kitchen before rolling up his sleeves and getting to work.
Ben brought the dessert in front of Jean, “What’s wrong with him?”
“Don’t care.”
Jean paused, then looked at Ben, “How is Sonny?”
She didn’t have time to check after returning.
“Don’t worry, no one is going to trouble him.He has already thought about it.Like me, he retired from the military.At
such an advanced age, he can’t continue.”
Sonny Kalzarc was a few years older than them.
After experiencing such turmoil, he also lost interest in this circle.
“Sonny also asked me to tell you that he didn’t suffer much.I hope you don’t blame yourself too much.This matter is
not your responsibility.”
Ben could see through Jean’s thoughts.
He whispered, “What you should think about most now is yourself.Jean pulled the corner of her lower lip bitterly,
and the figure of the man in the kitchen was reflected on the glass.She sighed slowly, “I have nothing to think
about.I plan to sell the Eyer Group.”
