Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 475

Chapter 475

Early the next morning, Jean was awoken by the clamor.

"Return our money, Royden!""

"Come out now! Why are you retracting your head into your shell like a coward? Do you think that you can ignore us by dumping the company on someone else? You have no conscience.You should be struck by lightning."

There were shouts outside, along with the noise of glass and cars being smashed.

Jean got up and walked out.She had just opened the bedroom door when Edgar pushed her back in.His deep eyes looked straight at her, and he said in a low voice, "Don't come out.I will get people to deal with this.Before everything is sorted out, stay in the room, alright?"

"What happened?"

Jean looked to the side, and she felt that the noise outside didn't subside.It became louder.

Edgar smiled lightly.

"It's just a small matter."

Jean's brows furrowed tightly.She couldn't help but think about the few days before trouble befell the Eyer family.

It was the same as this.

She was stuck in her house because of people outside.

Her dad had also said that he would get people to deal with it, but what she got in return was a summons by the court and a critically ill notice from the hospital.

Edgar let her go, and he turned to go outside.But she pulled at a corner of his shirt.

Jean took a deep breath.

"Your injury hasn't healed.Don't get hurt again"

Her voice was very soft but firm.

The man's frown softened slightly.

He said in a low voice, "Alright."

He stroked her hair before he turned and walked out with steady footsteps.

Jean stood in her room in a daze, and she slowly shut her eyes as she carefully listened to the shouts outside.

‘Bang’ They drove a truck through the doors of the Royden's family Villa.

How could such a chaotic farce appear in such an affluent villa district? If it wasn't for someone helping them, they wouldn't even know Edgar's address.

And there were always security guards who were outside the Royden’'s family Villa twenty-four hours a day.

Why were they nowhere to be seen today? In the end, Jean didn't obey him and walked to the window.

She wanted to see what was going on through the window.

But the sun today was blazing.

She blocked the sun's rays with her hand, and at the next moment, something broke through the window and hit the ridge of her brow.

It hurt...

Jean's foot slipped, and she fell down the steps.

"Ms.Eyer!"

Susan was in a daze.She couldn't protect Jean in time.

When Edgar rushed out, he saw her lying unconscious on the ground.

"Mr.Royden, what should we do?"

Edgar picked her up with both hands and cried his heart out.

"Jean, wake up! Look at me.."

After a long time, Jean felt like she was in a vast body of water.

Someone was calling her name, and there were also people swimming past her.

"Jeannie."

"Jeannie, come here."

It was her dad's voice! Jean stood up and walked to the other end of the river.

What was strange was that her body was floating, and she could step on the surface of the river.

"Jeannie, come here."

Gary stood on the bridge and kept waving at her.

Jean was exhausted.She felt as though there was finally a place where she could rest for a while, and she was overjoyed.

Her footsteps quickened.Her dad hadn't abandoned her.

If she could make it across, she would be happy.

She wouldn't have to suffer so much in the future.

But had she been suffering alone? No...

Somebody suddenly grabbed the hem of her skirt.
