Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258 Complaint

Jean didn’t care that Mr. Martin was there. She called Edgar but couldn’t get through. She could only call Miles instead.

“Mr. Royden is still on the plane. He had a last-minute business trip.”

“Alright. Please tell him that I have something very important to ask him.” Jean hung up, annoyed.

Seeing her expression, Mr. Martin, who was at the side, didn’t understand. “Ms. Eyer, we’ve won our lawsuit against Royden Group, and you’ve received the compensation you deserve. Why aren’t you happy at all?”

Jean laughed dryly. “Yes, I should be happy.”

Edgar had used different identities to compensate her…

Jean hit the table suddenly. The more she thought about it, the angrier she was.

Mr. Martin immediately thought of an excuse and slipped away.

In the afternoon, after Jean received the money, she immediately made a decision to expand her business.

Since Edgar gave her an opportunity to strike back, he couldn’t blame her for growing her wings and striking back viciously in the future.

The partnership between Royden Group and Eyer Group was picked up by the media as they fell over each other to report on it. Opinions differed on the incident that had happened. With the involvement of the police, the investigation of the case progressed quickly.

“Mr. X is one of the operations managers in Royden Group. He admitted of his own accord that he had sold insider information of Royden Group at a high price to a rival company and planned a cluster of car accidents…”

“Furthermore, a few staff members were caught in an alley in the wee hours last night. All of them were not citizens, and they had immigrated here illegally.”

The plot was revealed, and justice was restored. Royden Group had also dismissed a few staff members that were involved in it. Jean noted the names down and compared it to what she found before she realized that those that Edgar fired were those who had deep connections to Andy.

He killed two birds with one stone. With this, he dealt a serious blow to Andy.

“As compensation, Royden Group will apologize to Eyer Group and provide the necessary compensation.”

Jean had become the big winner of the affair.

She took a deep breath as she sat in front of the television. That man was really scary.

Brigid served her fruits. She said regretfully, “Ms. Eyer, are you and Mr. Royden reconciling?”

“No.” Jean picked up an apple. She treated it as Edgar and bit on it ferociously.

Brigid sighed. “That’s right. It would be hard for anyone to feel at ease with what had happened back then.”

She was only a servant, after all. She had no way to empathize with what Jean went through. Moreover, for someone ordinary like her, what she wanted the most was to live a respectable life.

“Ms. Eyer, if Mr. Royden apologized to you sincerely, would you forgive him?”

“Absolutely not.”

Jean held on to the tray of fruits and turned to go upstairs.

Brigid sighed in silence. Thinking about Edgar’s previous orders, she counted the days and went into the kitchen.

There was a blizzard that night.

The news kept reporting warnings of bad weather. “Many flights have been detained because of weather control. Thousands of passengers have to stay overnight in the airport halls.”

“The general public must take note…”

Jean had let Brigid and the other servants get off work earlier. She sat on her couch alone. She was surrounded by piles of résumés on the carpet. She wanted to choose the most outstanding people to join Eyer Group.

But all these résumés were written perfectly. Jean didn’t have any clue, even after looking at it for half the day.

She really didn’t have much experience as a manager.

Knock knock.

Jean looked at the clock on the wall unconsciously. She wrinkled her brows.

Who would it be at this time?

Snow was falling heavily outside. Jean conveniently picked up the glass bottle on the table and walked in the direction of the door.

She clicked on the screen of the security camera. A flawless side profile appeared before her.

The knocking continued.
