Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100 Apologizing Is an Option

Half an hour later. In the president’s office of Royden Group. Edgar had just taken care of the banned goods – he had made sure to destroy all of them , leaving no traces of evidence behind.

“Sir, the board members are unsettled, Mr. Negreanu has expressed his concerns about the wastage, and he’d like to know who is going to fill that gap?”

Edgar lowered his eyes as he started drumming his fingers on the desk. “Are we sure that Andy was responsible for the goods?”

“Mr. Shaw went overseas to get the purchase done, and the price was much lower than before.” Miles reported. Moments later, Edgar uttered with a deep voice, “That is enough.”

Miles raised his brows, waiting to hear what else Edgar had to say. Edgar remained silent for a long while, then said, “She tried to instigate a conflict within the company, hilarious.”

Edgar would never allow it. But Miles responded hesitantly, “Mr. Royden, I heard from MON & Co. that Miss Eyer beat someone up at the company.” Edgar was not sure if he should believe it, “She beat someone?”

In his eyes, Jean would never do such a thing. “Why?”

“The other person offended her by bringing up your relationship with her, and she lashed out.” Miles conveyed what he was told.

As soon as he finished his sentence, Edgar’s face turned as dark as they come.

“Take care of it, Oprah Group is sending someone over next week, I do not want them to hear anything about this.”

“Yes, Mr. Royden.”

…

Meanwhile, at MON & Co.

Jean sat firmly on the couch and refused to break her silence, no matter what Anna and Hanson asked.

“You’ve barely been promoted to designer after we made an exception for you, and now you put your hands on the intern’s instructor? What on earth do you think you’re doing? Are you out of your mind?!”

Anna gaped her eyes as she paced her room with her rather plump figure, pointing at Jean’s face disappointingly. “Look, Sky found out about it already, just you wait, your career is over.”

Hansen rubbed his temples, “Enough, it’s too late to say anything now. Xander has gone to the hospital for an injury assessment, I don’t think it’s that concerning.”

“Mr. Hansen, as you know, Xander… Is the only son of the Quade family. Who is going to be held accountable if he is seriously injured?”

When Anna heard about the news, she was quick to put the blame on Jean.

She was tired of the troubles Jean brought along – first she crossed the daughter of the Sans, and now she had physically assaulted the son of the Quades.

Hansen took on a frown.

Their conversation had been recorded in the surveillance footage.

And it was clear that Xander had been provocative throughout the exchange.

Nobody would have been able to hold themselves.

But…

He looked at Jean reluctantly, “Why don’t you go to the hospital and apologize to him?”

Jean’s eyes became soulless, and she no longer wanted to retaliate, “Okay.”

An apology? Sure.

But nobody is to blame me if anything happens after.

She was somewhat restricted by what she could do here at MON & Co. But if it were a public space like the hospital, she would be able to do as she wished – as long as she was willing to bear the consequences.

Jean grabbed her bag and headed for the exit.

While Anna blinked a few times confusedly. “Mr. Hansen, don’t you think she looked a little odd when she left? Why didn’t she fight back?!”

It made no sense.

Jean had always been a troublemaker since back in the days when she had to travel a lot for work. Besides, she had such a strong personality. Why would she yield without a word today?

Anna’s sixth sense told her that something was not right.

While Hansen said casually, “Although Xander is the young master of the Quades, his words were not only insulting to Jean, but also damaging to Mr. Royden’s reputation. I’ll leave it to you to strike the balance between the two.”
