Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366 Can’t Help but Feel Jilted

Ben sneered and said, “I went easy on you.” If not for his injuries that hadn’t fully recovered, Colin wouldn’t have been left with a mere mild concussion. He would have sent Colin to the hospital for three weeks.

In an instant, the ferocious and sharp air that was emitted from Ben scared Leah. Much of her arrogance dissipated. But Ally, who was at the side, suddenly said, “Actually, how are they at fault? Eyer Group didn’t make it clear that they weren’t going to invest. This is just a misunderstanding.”

She wanted to direct the rage to Jean. Her dad had previously discussed it with his friends, talking about how Eyer Group was developing so quickly. If they continued to evolve rapidly, how could she compare to Jean?

Hearing it, Leah immediately added, “Yes, this is a misunderstanding.” She immediately pulled Colin, who was silent. “Alright, let’s go home.”

Shortly after, Ben left the hospital. He didn’t look for Jean but went to the training grounds and did ten laps instead. He was fast and furious. It frightened Sonny and the new driver. “Sonny, your old racer is so intense.”

“I… He must be in a bad mood today. You can leave now and come back tomorrow for practice,” Sonny said. He ran to Ben with a bottle of water. “I saw the news. Are you alright?”

Ben nodded. He lifted his head and finished the bottle of water. His eyes stared at the entrance passage far away. During that time, Jean walked out of there every day.

But now, the distance between them was getting further. It was even further than the distance between her and Edgar. Ben raised his head. “Sonny, I can’t help but feel jilted.”

…

Soon, Ranford International officially terminated the contract with Eyer Group, while Eyer Group made the formal change to an investment company. The news spread throughout the industry.

Many people were waiting for Eyer Group to be the laughingstock.

“What waves can that girlie cause?”

“I never thought that someone as honest and dutiful as Mr. Eyer could raise such a reckless, crazy girl.”

There was a table full of corporation presidents at a dinner party. They shook their heads when Eyer Group was brought up.

Upon hearing it, Zenith’s expression darkened. “You don’t have to say that, Mr. Raben. I think that Eyer Group wants to have a breakthrough and bring forth new ideas. What’s wrong with that?”

The others clearly never imagined that Zenith would stand on Eyer Group’s side.

They looked at each other and carefully thought if Jean had anything to do with the Rocher and Knox families.

Someone retorted, “Eyer Group can only survive to this day because of Edgar’s magnanimity. If she does her job to protect the company, she may be acknowledged, but she’s going through so much trouble. What is she doing if not trying to go down a dead end?”

“All the investment companies have to rely on Royden Group. It’s clear that she wants to go against Edgar, and it’s not beneficial to her at all. I don’t think she can last for three months.”

“When the time comes, Eyer Group would lose everything that they invested.”

Zenith looked around him. Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together.

He stood up. “I have something to do. I’ll be leaving.”

They watched as he left, as though displeased with their topic of discussion. They chuckled. “Let’s wait and see.”

Zenith walked out of the restaurant unhappily, and he saw a thin figure standing outside the door.

“Mr. Rocher.” Jean walked over carrying folders. “I have something to ask you, and I’m wondering if you have the time?”

Zenith was startled. “How did you know that I was here?”

“I asked Jensen.” Jean felt that she had to ask and learn more so she could do well.

“Have you been waiting for me here all this time while I was at the dinner party?” Zenith saw that her clothes were thin and the weather outside was so cold.

“Let’s go. Let’s talk about it at home.”

Nathan had just arrived home and saw Jean from afar as she got out of Zenith’s car.

He hesitated for a moment before he made a call to Edgar. “Do you want to come and have a drink at my place tonight?”
