Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 372

Chapter 372 A Surprise Invitation

Jean had just stepped into her room when she heard Edgar’s voice behind her. “Just a moment.” He chased after her and calmed his breathing. “I know that you don’t want to talk about personal matters. So, let’s talk about work matters.”

Jean sighed gently. “Edgar, if I knew that you were such a badgering person before we got married, perhaps I wouldn’t have agreed to your proposal.” “It has been over between us for a long time. Do you understand?”

From how she saw it, no matter how much Edgar took the initiative to approach her, he had his motives. The wisest way to deal with it was to reject him directly.

The door shut, and Edgar turned away in frustration. She would laugh and smile when she was with Hugo, but she always had an icy demeanor with him. Maybe he shouldn’t pester her any longer.

The other schedules of the conference went smoothly. Royden Group had other urgent matters to deal with, so Edgar stayed in his room without meeting anyone. Jean heard Rachel mention it and paid no attention to it.

That night, the video clip of her interview by the TV station was uploaded online. At the same time, she received news from the design school overseas that she had applied to back then.

“Ms. Eyer, if you’re still interested in jewelry design, we warmly welcome you to come to our school for a half-year exchange program.”

When Jean saw it, she almost cried out loud in excitement.

She had longed for such an opportunity in the past.

She desired it deeply even now.

Perhaps she had another path to walk on. Maybe she could try again.

“Ms. Eyer, are you going to study design abroad? What about the company…” On one hand, Rachel was happy for Jean, but on the other hand, she was very disappointed.

After all, this was when the company needed Jean the most.

If she left for half a year, the company’s current state couldn’t be maintained.

Jean looked at Rachel and smiled. “Don’t worry. I don’t intend to do so now. Although this is good news for me, it’s too late.”

She was no longer the person with no worries who only thought about herself.

“Ms. Eyer…”

Rachel’s feelings were complicated. She looked at Jean for a while as if there were many things she couldn’t say.

“Don’t think too much about it. I just wanted to share it with you. Alright, go and rest. There are many things to do tomorrow.”

Rachel nodded and left Jean’s room.

Rachel had just left when there was a knock at her door again.

Jean frowned unconsciously. “Ed…”

She realized that she was mistaken when she opened the door. It wasn’t Edgar, but an employee from Royden Group.

“Ms. Eyer, Mr. Edbert instructed me to give this to you.”

Jean took it from him, and he turned to leave.

She closed the door, and she shook the box.

It wasn’t a big box. She opened it, and she could see everything in it at one glance. There were a few old photographs and a written contract.

Each word on it pierced her heart.

“The newborn baby girl was taken from Ms. Hale, the nurse in charge at Ballow Hospital.”

Sam’s name was written on it!

Jean’s hand trembled uncontrollably as she held the piece of paper. She immediately made a call to Edbert.

The call went through quickly. Edbert’s voice was deep and inquisitive. “I was one of those who knew about it back then. I wanted to tell you about it long ago.”

“Who on earth sold Gigi!”

Her biological parents would have never done such a thing. When she was young, she had heard those at home say that her mom had a difficult birth with her.

There were two children, but only one came back to the Eyer family.

Many things had happened in the small town back then. Her mom had been on bed rest for half a year before she recovered from exhaustion.
