Edgar and His Destined Wife novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 A Show

He was the young master of the Quande family and a classmate from Jean’s college. They weren’t close to each other back then. Xander even hated Jean.

The Quande family and the Eyer family were business rivalries for years. However, after the Eyer family went bankrupt, the Quande family’s business did not expand as expected. Jean had to hide from the loan sharks, so she didn’t have the chance to find out what had happened.

But Jean was certain that Edgar, who had wild ambitions, wouldn’t let anyone benefit from the two families. All Eyer Group shares were basically bought over by the Royden Group.

Jean still remembered that when she was about to marry Edgar, Xander went to study design abroad at her favorite university.

Xander probably took her place after she gave up the open-ended admission.

Things are really unpredictable.

“Alright, let’s not waste time. We’ll talk about your intention of studying design here at seven o’clock tonight.”

“Sure!”

All the female interns were not shy in hiding their excitement and adoration for Xander. Jean was the only one who remained calm.

After Jean packed her things, she planned to take some things from Monica’s office before going back to the hospital.

“Jean.”

She was going down the stairs.

But she heard someone calling her.

Jean turned back and saw Xander smiling at her, “I owe you a cup of coffee. Can I pay you back today?”

Jean was confused as she did not remember the deal.

All the female interns were staring murderously at Jean, plus Xander kept on insisting. Jean had no choice but to agree quickly.

“Sure.”

Jean left with Xander.

All the interns immediately gathered together and gossip about them.

“What happened? How did they know each other? I heard that he had just come back from abroad.”

“Jean is so lucky. All the guys around her are super handsome!”

“The next season’s design competition is coming soon. Jean is surely becoming a permanent employee of MON & Co. with the help of our lecturer.”

Sally looked at Jean and Xander with doubts.

She didn’t think that Xander was interested in Jean.

For one second, she actually saw Xander looking at Jean with resentment.

The atmosphere of the cafe was great. Jean looked curiously at the person in front of her, “Why would you want to help me win the design competition?”

Xander was stirring his coffee.

“Because you’re talented! Not one of the interns is as good as you. Besides, I know what happened to your father. All you need is a chance.”

Jean was speechless.

Xander continued, “Besides, you were the one given the opportunity to study abroad. So, everything I own now should belong to you.”

Xander smiled and said.

Jean shook her head, “You’ve earned your opportunity with your own hard work. It has nothing to do with me. I admit that I really want to win the first prize, but I don’t want to play dirty.”

After Jean finished speaking, she got up and left.

Suddenly, Xander burst into laughter.

“Stop pretending. I know what you’re up to.”

Jean stood rooted to the spot. She turned around and looked at Xander.

Xander took out a business card and put it on the table. It was the paparazzi company entrusted by Jean.

She frowned. We really can’t have any secrets in this world. People will always work for whoever pays more.

Jean knew that someone would expose her wrongdoings, but she didn’t expect them to find out so soon.

“What are you trying to do?”

She walked back and stared curiously at Xander.
