Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 326

Chapter 326 Mr. Royden’s Plan

After discussing with the jury, the judge announced, “Silence. The court shall step down for a break. We shall deliver the judgment in ten minutes.”

Everyone left their seats, but Jean remained in the defendant’s seat. Once everyone had left, Ben came to her. “Don’t hold out any hope for her. She is determined to send you to prison. I’ll tell her everything now.”

He could not bear to keep seeing Jean suffer. Jean had done everything she could to help Gigi. In the end, this was how Gigi repaid her. Even if Jean did not care for her life, Ben could not bear to see her hurting herself this way. Jean looked up slowly. “Ben, did you notice anything strange about this?”

“What?” Ben saw that Jean had regained her spirit and rushed to her. Meanwhile, Gigi sat before Edgar and lowered her head unhappily. “Edgar, why didn’t you accompany me just now? I was scared having to face the court alone.”

Edgar looked at her but did not say anything. “Edgar, I’m doing this for our child. You understand me, right?”

Gigi spoke softly and came near him. “Where is the child?” Edgar asked flatly and looked at Gigi with a cold and stern gaze. “He…”

“Speak.” Edgar stared at her and said with a sneer, “Since I’m the child’s father, I have the right to know everything.”

Gigi stammered and did not dare to meet his gaze.

“I’ve sent the child overseas.” Sam came to them. “You should stop pressuring Gigi. She could not bear to part with the child, but it was necessary for his health.”

As long as the child is not here, Edgar can never carry out a DNA test.

Once Jean is locked up in prison for two to three years, Edgar and Gigi would have time to have children. After all, Edgar is a healthy man. He will eventually want to sleep with Gigi.

“Is that so?”

A hint of a smile across Edgar’s brow. “Mr. Reece, you have thought of everything.”

Sam’s expression darkened. “Why do you still call me that?”

Edgar had never shown him any respect.

“Miles,” Edgar called out.

Miles immediately brought an agreement Gigi had signed.

Sam burst into fury. “Marriage is a serious matter. How can you treat it as a game? Your agreement has no legal effect. I’ll never agree to this.”

Gigi finally gave birth to that baby and got together with Edgar. How can he chase her out?

Meanwhile, Gigi cried profusely at the side. She had bitten her lips until they were swollen.

“Edgar, do you hate me that much?”

“No, I never hated you. I just thought a scheming woman like you is more suited to be with Andy.” Edgar glanced at her. “Even if the child is not around, I can still get his blood sample from the hospital. When I asked you to bring the child for a DNA test, I gave you a final chance. Unfortunately, you didn’t heed it.”

Gigi began trembling all over and looked at him in shock.

“You, you knew all along?”

Sam also did not expect things to turn out this way.

He had made so much effort to connect himself to the Royden family. However, it all came to nothing.

“Edgar, don’t do this. You can’t abandon me.” Gigi rushed to him and kneeled on the floor. She grabbed onto his suit jacket tightly.”

“I beg of you. I’m willing to do anything you want. Please don’t abandon me, okay?” Gigi no longer cared about her dignity. She was willing to do anything to keep Edgar with her.

Edgar flattened his suit from her and looked at her sternly.

“Withdraw the lawsuit.”

Gigi widened her eyes in shock.

“If… If I withdraw the lawsuit, will you pretend as if nothing had happened?”

Her voice trembled. She kept clinging to his suit jacket.
