Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 359

Chapter 359 There’s No Use in Him Worrying

He had taken a couple of years to bankrupt Eyer Group. But he had only taken ten hours to help her break free from Serena’s scam contract. Edgar used his strength to prove one thing to Jean. There was nothing that he couldn’t do if he wanted to.

Jean gripped her cell phone tightly. Just as she had told Rachel, it wasn’t that Serena had poor social relations. It was because Royden Group had incredible social relations. As long as there was movement from Edgar, those wanting to cling to Royden Group would crowd and rush ahead. They couldn’t wait to take credit in front of a big shot like him.

Faced with pressure from so many sides, it was too difficult for Serena to make a comeback. Jean took a deep breath in and took out her cell phone. She dialed the familiar string of numbers.

The call was only answered after a while. “What’s up?” “Let’s have a simple meal at night if you’re free.” It was evident that the other side never imagined that she would take the initiative. There was no reply.

“Silence is consent. I will send the address to you,” Jean said after mustering up her courage. She hung up after that. On the other end of the phone, Edgar’s eyes stirred. He immediately put down the materials in his hands and rushed out of the office.

Miles was carrying coffee in and was almost knocked over. “Mr. Royden?” “Let’s go. Follow me.” Edgar pressed the elevator buttons in a hurry.

Miles was baffled. He thought that something terrible had happened to make the company president panic. He immediately went into battle mode and gathered 120% of his energy.

He thought that they would be meeting some big shot of the business world or that Mr. Royden was inclined to invest in something. In the end, he stood in front of a branded luxury goods store.

He looked at the counter, where his boss was silently frowning while looking at diamond jewelry. Miles sighed in silence.

“Where’s Edgar? What’s up? Why did he ask me to come over so quickly?” Nathan ran over. He was panting a little.

Miles was just about to tell him when Edgar turned after hearing Nathan’s voice. “Come over, quick!”

Edgar pointed at the counter while pressing Nathan’s shoulder. “She asked me out for dinner tonight. I want to get her a present. Which one should I get?”

“… you said that there was something incredibly urgent on the phone. Was this what you meant?” Nathan was stupefied.

Edgar was completely unaware of his astonishment. He immediately fell into the dilemma of choice. “She doesn’t like anything too flashy, and I don’t think it can be too expensive.”

Nathan was unbelievably exasperated.

Seeing him full of joy and expectations, it was as if this was his first time in love…

Nathan was stunned, and he pulled Edgar back. He tried to put words together. “Be honest with me. Other than Jean and Gigi, do you have any other women?”‘

No!

Of course not. Edgar had scared away all the socialites that pounced on him.

Hearing Nathan’s question, Edgar pushed him away, displeased. “Don’t ask me nonsense.”

Nathan understood at once and rushed to explain. “I misspoke. I meant that other than Jean, you’ve never treated other women so seriously, have you?”

This also meant that the man looked as though he ran the business world and treated women as objects, but in actuality, he was a fool in love.

“I was busy with company affairs in the past, then I got married right away. So, no.” Edgar’s gaze was still fixed on the jewelry that looked about the same. His brows furrowed tightly. “Why don’t I take them all?”

Nathan let out a breath of air.

He turned to look at Miles. Miles also had an expression of bewilderment as he didn’t know how to advise Edgar.

“Um, Edgar, why are you giving her a gift?” Nathan felt like Edgar’s IQ was basically zero at the moment.

“I helped her settle the affair with Ranford. She asked me out tonight mostly to talk about it. I want to… to take this opportunity to reconcile with her,” Edgar said. He nodded after that and pointed to a diamond bracelet at the back. “That one.”

“Alright, sir. I’ll wrap it up for you.”

When Edgar spent money, it was undoubtedly on the store’s most expensive item.
