Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 354

Chapter 354 Joy from Heaven

Jean walked down a few steps before she suddenly stopped and turned her head to the side to look at Hugo. “Mr. Mason, can I get a ride if it’s convenient?”

She had been very angry that day. She didn’t want Edgar to take her anywhere under any sort of pretense to give her a talking-to. Or perhaps it could be said that she wasn’t in the mood to argue with him today.

Hugo nodded indifferently. “Sure.” He was just being a gentleman. He felt that it wasn’t quite right for Jean to go home alone. That was all.

But their slight rapport made Edgar’s eyes grow cold. He didn’t ignore the fact that Hugo’s coat was still draped across her shoulders.

Why are they being so impatient?

Edgar walked up to them and grabbed Jean’s wrist. He could feel her coldness in his palm, and his cold brows wrinkled tightly. “It’d be a wonder if you weren’t cold with so little on.”

“I can’t do anything about it. Women have to risk everything so that men will pay attention to them.” The corners of Jean’s lips twitched, and she smiled in disdain. “If you don’t want me to get cold and have frostbite, Mr. Royden, please step aside.”

Behind him, Hugo’s car stopped. The driver opened the car door politely.

The scene looked like Edgar was blocking her path of marrying into a rich family.

How could he just let her get into someone else’s car?

Hugo was standing on the left of Jean and he kept quiet.

But Jean was very grateful that he didn’t leave.

“Edgar, Mr. Graham is looking for you. He said that he must meet with you today to talk about the project. Quick, follow me.” Nathan ran out, smiling. He grabbed Edgar and pushed him in. “Mr. Mason. Jean. Be careful on the road. I heard that it’s going to snow at night. The roads are slippery on snow days!”

Nathan pushed Edgar with some effort while clapping his back as he kept signaling Edgar with his eyes.

Jean saw that her path was cleared, and she got into Hugo’s car.

Seeing the car drive out of his vision, Edgar was about to grind his teeth to dust.

Nathan sighed in frustration. “Right now, everyone can tell that you’re jealous of Hugo. Why… why is it that when you’re met with Jean’s affairs, you become so immature?”

What happened to the old Edgar, who would make waves in the business world?

He had completely lost his reason and even did childish acts such as blocking someone’s way.

Hearing what Nathan said, Edgar tried hard to suppress the rage in his heart. Every word he said was icy. “But she can’t hang around with people like Hugo.”

“What’s wrong with Hugo? Rukh Group has been developing pretty well for the past few years. Furthermore, although Hugo has had a divorce, his looks and figure are… comparable to yours.”

Nathan continued subconsciously, but his voice was soft because the gaze from the man before him was extremely deadly.

“I didn’t mean that.”

Nathan coughed. “I just think that there’s nothing wrong with Jean wanting to start a new chapter in her life.”

When Edgar heard it, his expression suddenly darkened.

His blazing rage also vanished quietly.

They had been divorced for so long. Jean had also made it clear that she didn’t love him anymore.

Then…

He didn’t have the right to control anything that happened between her and other people.

There was an inexpressible pain in Edgar’s heart.

“Nathan, have a drink with me.”

…

Hugo’s car stopped outside of Eyer Residence.

Seeing that the house was pitch-black, he subconsciously looked at Jean inquisitively. “Are you staying alone?”

Jean didn’t think that the question was strange, so she didn’t have her guard up against him. “Mm. I’m sorry for troubling you today, Mr. Mason. I will send your coat for dry cleaning before I send it back to you.”

The trim and the quality of the coat were definitely superior.

Jean was apologetic. “I made you leave early tonight because of me. I’m really very sorry.”
