Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 319

Chapter 319 What Are You Scared Of?

“I want to see Edgar!” Gigi slammed her hands on the table and said, “Don’t try to trick me into signing this. Did Jean pay you to do this? Is she using this to bring me down, given my repentance? I will never sign it.”

Mr. Martin persuaded her for more than an hour, but Gigi would not say anything. As the visitation hour was up, Mr. Martin got up to leave. Gigi saw the door closing and rushed to it, shouting continuously, “I want to see Edgar!”

Her voice reverberated along the corridor. Mr. Martin walked out of the main door and came to a black car parked in the parking lot. He spoke reverently to the person in the car. “Mr. Royden, I did as you instructed and told Ms. Reece everything. However, she is hysterical and refuses to sign.”

Edgar raised his hand. “Thank you.” Miles handed an envelope to Mr. Martin. “Mr. Royden hopes you can visit Ms. Reece daily and ensure she is safe. You also need to convince her to sign as soon as possible.”

“I understand.” Mr. Martin nodded. The car gradually left the parking lot. The man in it called Ben’s number. “You can begin.”

…

Royden Group officially began suing Andy and two others. The matter soon caused an uproar throughout the city. Due to the pressure of public opinion, Edgar decided to call a press conference.

He presented solid evidence during the press conference. He even showed a set of blurred photos of two people. They were Andy and Gigi. They seemed intimate and entered the same hotel late at night.

“These were taken last year.” A few reporters whispered amongst themselves. “I didn’t expect someone to dare to cheat on Edgar. Is she out of her mind?” “Perhaps they are just close friends? The photos didn’t capture anything.”

“Are those not damning enough? It involves the equity of Royden Group. No wonder Andy fought tooth and nail against Edgar. It was to win a beautiful lady for himself.”

An unassuming figure stood behind the crowd of reporters. She wore a cap, a pair of shades, and a mask. At the same time, she was holding a small camera.

Ben’s voice sounded in her headset. “Andy and Sam are heading up together.”

Jean grunted in the affirmative and looked at the man on the stage again. He got up and walked outside, so Jean immediately sneaked out from the side to follow him.

She shouted, “Edgar.”

However, Edgar did not seem to hear her but continued walking.

Jean frowned and jogged to keep up.

Meanwhile, Edgar turned and leaned to the side to conceal himself.

As soon as Jean appeared, he immediately reached out and pulled her into his arms. He wrapped his arms around her body and looked at her surprised expression.

“You…” Jean struggled hard. She realized he must have known she was following him and deliberately led her there.

Edgar pressed her wrist and indicated with his gaze to look in a direction.

It was Sam and Andy. They had just gotten out of the elevator but did not enter the press conference immediately. Instead, they met with Mr. Carling of the secretarial department.

Mr. Carling sighed and said, “Mr. Shaw, this contains the requested things. My clearance only allowed me to take this much, and you must not reveal that I gave you this. Otherwise, Mr. Royden would never forgive me.”

Andy waved the USB flash drive in his hand. “Don’t worry. You will get your portion of the reward.”

Sam urged beside Andy. “Let’s go now.”

But Andy was surprisingly relaxed.

“Why the rush? We can go in a little later. The more Edgar speaks, the more humiliating it will be for him later.” He gave a sinister smile and walked ahead.

Sam was bursting with anxiety. “How much more are you waiting for him to expose? If you don’t plan to turn things around, don’t drag me into prison with you.”

“Why so scared? Worst comes to worst; you can blame everything on your daughter. She has just given birth. The court will consider it and give her a lighter sentence.”

Jean clenched her fists. How can he be so heartless?

Sam snorted and said, “That brat is obsessed with Edgar. She won’t listen to me.”
