Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 Charity

“No one!” Edgar laughed in spite of himself. “Since you said that, I won’t let you leave tonight.” “Edgar, you have no right to restrict my personal freedom.”

Edgar turned away and didn’t say anything. The air dropped. Jean noticed something unimaginable when the car arrived at the old Eyer Residence. “What are these people moving?”

There were dozens of workers moving furniture in. There were servants cleaning the window ledges, and they had cleared half the weeds in the yard.

Edgar didn’t answer her directly. He asked coldly, “You’ve been staying like this for the past few days?” Jean didn’t want to answer him. She pushed the car door open and walked into the house.

“Everyone, stop. I don’t need…”

Before she could finish, she was flustered by the furniture before her. The color of the curtains, the arrangement of the couches, and the carpets… everything was how the Eyer Residence used to be.

Jean stood there, as if she were in another lifetime.

After a long time, she wiped away the tears in the corner of her eyes. She looked at Edgar while sneering. “There’s no point in doing all of this now. Even if you buy identical furniture, this is no longer the Eyer Residence of the past!”

“It’s not just identical.”

After he said that, Jean’s pupils shook as if there were an earthquake.

She ran to the other end of the couch and tore off the covers. Seeing the scratches on it, she was shocked.

These were from the Eyer Residence!

After the Eyer family collapsed, she was forced to repay her debts by selling her inheritance from her dad.

Her tears were like overturning seas and rivers. They surged and flowed violently.

Her hands trembled as she stroked the grain and lines of the furniture. She couldn’t move her feet forward.

“Also…” He walked to Jean and extended his hand. “Come with me.”

Jean wiped her tears away with force. She gritted her teeth as she stood up. “I don’t need it. Please move all of it away.”

She didn’t need his charity, nor did she need this kind of apology.

She wanted to hate him.

Only this way could she forget the horrible marriage and the feelings she shouldn’t be having.

But he kept making up for it and questioning her. She really didn’t know how she should face him.

Edgar looked down at her.

With unprecedented patience, he said, “Brigid is upstairs cleaning your room.”

Brigid?

Jean looked up with eyes full of tears.

She ran upstairs hurriedly. When she pushed the door open, she saw Brigid making the bed.

Seeing Jean, Brigid was filled with emotion. “Mrs… Ms. Eyer!”

Jean was no longer the Mrs. Royden of the past. Now, she was once again Ms. Eyer.

When the Eyer family was in trouble, Jean couldn’t even keep her house. She had to give everything to Edgar. Her servants left one by one. Brigid was the last to leave.

She had served in the Eyer Residence for more than ten years and had been extremely unwilling to leave.

But when Jean went to prison, Brigid had to earn a living.

“I went back to my relative’s house in my village at first. Mr. Royden found people to look for me and told me that I must come back. Ms. Eyer, it’s great that I can serve you again.” Brigid wiped her tears away hurriedly. “Look at me. Everything is getting better now. Why am I crying?”

Jean’s hand slowly tightened.

“Brigid, you can continue. I have something to take care of.”

“Alright. I will definitely clean everything up!”

Jean moved her feet and went down the stairs one step at a time. She walked to the man who was standing in the living room.

His cold appearance was as if it was his first time in the Eyer Residence. Jean looked at him from afar. She could still remember clearly the throbbing in her heart at that time.

With the passage of time, everything changed.

“Edgar, what in the world are you planning?”

The man initially had his back facing her. Hearing her voice, he turned. His gaze was dark and boundlessly deep. “I’m trying to make it up to you.”

He wanted to restore the Eyer Residence to how it was initially.

No matter how difficult it was, he wanted to do it.
