Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 266

Chapter 266 The Hidden Hand Behind the Scenes

Nathan heard the same news but with a different subject. He placed his cell phone down and looked at Edgar’s expression hesitantly. “Jensen and Jean were photographed by the paparazzi. Also…”

Before he could finish, Edgar had already rushed out the door. Nathan immediately followed him. “It’s over. Something is about to happen this time.”

The two of them were just eating a meal together, but because of Jensen’s family background, others thought he stooped down and became an insignificant manager in Eyer Group. This was enough to spark the news.

In an instant, a crisis suddenly erupted. ‘Rich and powerful ex-wife is a seductress’. This spread around like wildfire.

Many companies who wanted to work with Eyer Group slowly shrank back. Their wives immediately stopped their husbands from discussing business matters with Jean, worried that rumors would affect their husbands.

Jean wanted to ignore it at first, but things kept getting into a frenzy. There were also pictures of Ben entering and leaving her house that night.

There was only a man’s figure in the pictures. It was misinterpreted as Jensen entering and leaving the Eyer Residence late at night, where they had a private date the whole night.

“These reporters are too much! Should we send them a lawyer’s letter, Ms. Eyer?”

Jean didn’t say anything.

If she didn’t get it under control now, Eyer Group would be most affected.

She was prepared for controversy because of the previous partnership with Royden Group.

If Eyer Group was in an uproar because of these scandals, who would still want to work with her in the future?

Ben’s contract was still in front of Jean.

This had to be kept under control as soon as possible.

“Are you just going to endure it, Ms. Eyer?” Rachel couldn’t stomach it.

Jean said calmly, “Contact the reporter that wanted to interview me. Tell them that I have thrilling news that they would be interested in.”

Rachel opened her mouth and was about to say something, but it was clear that Jean didn’t want to talk about it any further. Rachel could only leave.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Jensen standing there.

“Mr. Rocher! Why are you at the office at this time? If the reporters catch you…” Rachel said as she subconsciously looked down at the outside of the office.

“I’ve gotten people to take care of it on my way here. I don’t know if someone is deliberately targeting us. The news spread quickly.” Jensen seemed a little tired. He walked in front of Jean and wanted to say something but hesitated. “I’m sorry that I caused trouble for you.”

Jean forced out a sliver of a smile. “I can’t blame you.”

Jensen sighed. He was about to say something when he saw the contract on the desk. He immediately recognized Ludwig Group’s mark.

“Are you going to work with Ludwig Group?”

“I’m still thinking about it.” Jean pushed the contract aside and raised her hand to indicate that Jensen should sit. “You came at the right time. I’ve thought of a way to solve this. Why don’t we go for an interview together and clear the air about our relationship. This way, we can stop everyone from talking about it.”

This was the best solution that Jean had thought of so far.

Once she said that, Jensen reacted slowly.

“I think that even if we clarify to the reporters, they won’t believe it. Things will intensify, and they will follow you instead.” Jensen wrinkled his brows. He said with a serious expression, “Some people will stop at nothing to reach their goal.”

“You mean to say that someone is deliberately spreading these rumors?”

Jensen nodded. “Yes. And their goal is clear. It’s to drive a wedge between our relationship so that Eyer Group won’t receive the support of my dad and develop in the future.”

Jean hesitated. It wasn’t impossible, but she couldn’t think of who would do something so senseless. Even if her reputation was gone, what could they do?
