Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161 Troublemaker

Then, Jean took off the accessories on her hair in front of everyone and said, “Remember to transfer my remuneration to my bank account.”

Since she had already done the job, she was determined to receive the money. More importantly, she disdained to compete with Gigi. “Stop there.” Standing aside, Edgar blurted coldly. Jean was not an obedient pushover, so she had no intention to do what she was told.

When Harley heard Edgar’s holler, she noticed something was off, so she stopped dissuading Gigi and walked toward Jean instead. She leaned close to Jean and said softly, “Miss Eyer, if you leave now, our company will hold you liable for breaking the contract.” “What?”

“Which means you’ll need to pay a huge amount of damages.” Harley wore a courteous smile. Jean was infuriated. What rotten luck!

She glanced toward Edgar resentfully and had an idea all of a sudden. “The shooting progress is affected, or might even be terminated, due to Mr. Royden’s personal affair. Since that’s the case, shouldn’t he be the one paying for damages?”

Stunned, Harley answered reluctantly, “You’re not wrong.”

The entire spokesperson contract was signed by Edgar, so he was held responsible for the publicity effect of the advertisement.

Nevertheless, due to his prominent identity, it was assumed that a big shot like him wouldn’t eat his own words, so some terms and conditions were merely implied in the contract.

Jean’s statement hit the bullseye and caught Harley off guard.

Everyone had a bad hunch as soon as she said that.

The next second, Jean put the accessories back on her hair, walked to Edgar’s side, and initiated to hold his arm.

Edgar frowned and subconsciously pressed her arm.

Jean batted her eyelashes and said in an innocent manner. “Go ahead and continue with the shoot then.”

Then, she leaned her body against Edgar’s like a fragile flower, which made them look like an intimate couple at once.

In addition, the elegant outline of her hand and wrist accentuated the classiness of the ring.

The photographer was intrigued immediately. “Excellent! Give me another pose.”

The other staff too got back to their work. The atmosphere of the scene was even more harmonious than before this.

The photographer nodded in satisfaction. “Perfect. You guys look like a real couple.”

Meanwhile, Gigi was totally ignored, standing at the side.

Linda tugged at her arm and said, “Forget about it, Gigi. It’s just an ad shoot.”

“You know nothing! I’ll become everyone’s laughing stock if this ad is released!”

If that happened, she wouldn’t be able to garner any benefits in showbiz using her title as Edgar’s wife.

Just then, Gigi had a brainwave. She stuffed her phone into Linda’s hand and said, “Open the camera and record us.”

Before Linda realized what was going on, Gigi had already stomped up to Edgar and Jean.

“Edgar, you can’t do this to me! You can’t be bewitched by this woman. She’s clearly a two-timer! She’s leading Ben on while seducing you.”

Jean raised her brows as contempt flashed through her eyes. Sure enough, Gigi could be utterly unreasonable and outrageous.

Oh well…

Jean smiled and pulled Edgar tighter into her arms. “We’re just working. You have no idea what’s going on, so go and sit at the side.”

“Shut up! I’m talking to Edgar. You’re no one to meddle with the affairs between us.”

The frustrated Gigi grasped Edgar’s hand and asked, “Edgar, if this ad is released, what is going to happen to me?”
