Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207 You Really Have Some Nerve

Jean was only able to breathe again when he let go of her. She gasped and took in deep breaths of air raggedly. Before she could steady herself, the man recklessly pushed her aside.

There was a small wound at the corner of Jean’s mouth where she had been kissed.

When she looked up, Edgar’s face was dull and cold.

“You…” Sam’s eyes were as wide as saucers. He was so enraged he could only mumble incoherently. “How can you do this to my daughter? She’s bearing your child! You’re barbaric and immoral!”

Edgar frowned. He felt that Sam was incurably dumb.

No wonder Gigi never cared about the consequences when she did anything. It was inherited from him.

“This is my house, Mr. Reece. I don’t have to report what I do to anybody. I’ve overlooked the fact that you came without invitation. I’m afraid you’re not qualified to criticize me.”

Edgar’s gaze swept over him, and coldness filled the corners of Edgar’s eyes.

“You!”

Sam beat his chest. He almost couldn’t breathe.

“Miles, send Mr. Reece away.”

With one command, Miles immediately stepped up. “Mr. Reece, this way.”

Sam pointed at Edgar with a trembling hand. “You will get your retribution! The Reece family won’t just let this go.”

“I’ll be waiting.” Edgar turned and took a sip of his tea.

Once the door shut, he turned and walked to Jean.

He looked at her arrogantly and suddenly sneered.

“It seems like I’ve been too lenient with you. I made you think that you could behave so shamelessly in front of me.”

The freedom she had at the moment was given by him.

She could only dream of getting out of his control.

Jean kept looking down. She tried hard to calm the feeling in her heart. When she raised her head, her alluring pupils reflected the man’s ice-cold face.

She had long imagined that such a day would come.

“What’s the point of saying all this now, Mr. Royden? You don’t have evidence that points to me. Furthermore, Gigi is in a psychiatric ward.”

With how Sam was acting, he would definitely work against Edgar.

The news about Gigi having mental problems would spread across the whole city the next day. Edgar’s reputation would be the gossip at everyone’s mouths.

She had reached her goal.

Jean slowly twitched the corner of her mouth. “I don’t have much to look forward to in my life. But you, Mr. Royden. You have such a great future. It’s a shame…”

“Jean. Eyer.” He grinded his teeth as he called her name. His eyes were cold.

The corner of Jean’s lips curved unconcernedly. “Eyer Group has signed a contract with Royden Group. If the current president mysteriously goes missing, don’t you think that the outside world would suspect you?”

She meticulously deployed her bait and waited for Edgar to walk right into the trap.

From the looks of it, everything was going smoothly.

She had indeed been utterly humiliated just now, but what did it matter?

Even if she died a hundred times, she would be satisfied if Edgar’s bones could be crushed into ashes and scattered.

Edgar fiercely clenched his fists. Rage filled his eyes. “Alright, you asked for it!”

Jean watched as he walked into his study room. With a bang, the door was shut.

Susan immediately walked over and helped Jean up. “Why do you bother? You know what Mr. Royden’s temper is like. He can be persuaded by reason but not by force.”

The corner of Jean’s mouth twitched. Her smile was slightly pained.

“What a coincidence. Me too.”
