Chapter 82 I’m Not Causing Trouble!
“Leave now, or else I’ll ask the security guards to kick you out!” Gigi shouted angrily. Jean shook her head and looked around. “Where’s your stepmother?”
Only then the father and daughter realized that they hadn’t seen Winnie for a while now. “It’s none of your business. Hurry up and…”
Before Gigi could finish her words, Winnie ran toward them from behind. However, she tried to run away again when she saw Gigi arguing with Jean.
“Winnie, where are you going?” Jean shouted. She grabbed Winnie’s arm and said, “I came here to see you today,” “Why?” Winnie was struggling, but Jean held her so tight that she couldn’t move a bit.
People who didn’t know them might think that they were close to each other. Edgar’s eyes narrowed. Is Jean trying to mess with my wedding again?
Edgar took a quick glance at Miles. She then sent a few bodyguards to carry Jean away. But before they did so, Sam shouted. He was shocked when he saw the two women together. “Do you guys know each other?”
Why didn’t Winnie mention her after she interrupted Gigi’s wedding last time?
“Sam, I’ll explain to you later. The most important thing now is to get the wedding going.” Winnie was just a naive woman after all. She thought that Edgar and Gigi’s marriage would consolidate the Reece family and the Royden family’s relationship.
Sam would then pamper and spoil her in the future.
But she underestimated Sam’s suspicions and ambition.
Sam was hoping to shorten the distance between Edgar and him through the marriage. He could then ask the Royden Group to help the Reece Group get through its current crisis.
It is all ruined now!
The person I’m sleeping with every night has been keeping a secret from me. She actually has a close relationship with Edgar’s ex-wife. Can she be a commercial spy from the Royden Group?
Sam got angrier as he thought about it.
He said straight out, “With this woman here, Edgar would never set his heart on my daughter.”
They were once husband and wife, so they will always help each other.
What’s more, the Eyer family went bankrupt because of Edgar, so the entanglement between the two of them would not be broken so easily.
Edgar stared murderously at Sam.
“Mr. Reece. I don’t think what you said is appropriate.”
Sam was heartbroken. He pointed to Edgar and scolded, “I’ll be your father-in-law soon. Is this how you talk to me?”
Edgar talked back, “I’m just stating a matter of fact.”
Edgar ignored Sam and said to Jean, “I thought you promised not to cause trouble?”
Jean blinked. She grabbed Winnie’s hand and explained innocently, “I’m not causing trouble. I’m just here to see Winnie. Did I offend anyone?”
She was not wrong.
Edgar looked at Jean with mixed feelings. He knew that she was trying to play smart with him.
Sam felt humiliated. He reprimanded with a few words, then left.
Winnie tried to chase him, but Jean took a step ahead and grabbed her even tighter, “Winnie, where are you trying to go? I want to pass you my father’s belongings.”
“What is it?”
What was done was done. Winnie could no longer hide her past, so she started to aim for Gary’s possessions.
If Gary really left me something valuable, it’ll be my loss if I don’t take it. In fact, I’ve actually almost finished spending all the money I took from the Eyer family.
“It’s actually a tiger portrait pendant my dad wore on his neck everyday.” Jean said as she stretched out her hand. “He wants you to wear it every day so that he can always accompany you by your side.”
Winnie was frightened.
“You should keep this memorable pendant to yourself.” She pushed Jean’s hand away and went to chase Sam.
She almost fell as she did not pay attention to the steps in front of her.
