Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111

Chapter 111 Hesitation

Jean looked away from them and heard someone calling her name. “You should rest a couple more days.” It was Zoe’s first time showing concern to Jean.

There was still a medical gauze on Jean’s neck. She got up calmly and smiled. “I’m alright.” Yes, I’m alright.

I am still alive. Furthermore, I have seen how despicable these people can be. That is more the reason not to hide. Since Edgar loves Gigi, I will let them fully experience their love.

Zoe looked into Jean’s eyes and frowned. They seemed desolate and empty except for a deep hatred that would destroy everything on its path. However, Jean’s gaze returned to normal in the next second.

It made Zoe doubt what she saw just now and wonder if she was mistaken. Then, Jean smiled at Zoe. “The jewelry has been delivered, and I have checked it. Would you like to look at it yourself?” Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Today’s jewelry was one of MON & Co.’s limited edition collections called ‘Heart of the Emperor’. It was highly expensive and only one was ever made. “Sure, I’ll take a look.”

Jean watched Zoe head to the lounge. Heart of the Emperor was inside a safe that the staff moved in just now. Jean smirked as she thought about it.

The photo shoot began fifteen minutes later. During this time, only the model involved could enter the lounge at the back. At this moment, Tyra Moss, the lead model, had not arrived yet, so Gigi was the only model around.

Director Lewis chatted with Gigi in private and returned in a good mood. Then, Tyra arrived. She had already changed her clothes in her MPV and did not go to the lounge. One could not help but admire her beauty as she walked into the studio.

Director Lewis leaned into his chair and said, “Bring out the necklace. Let’s begin.”

The staff immediately went to carry out his order, but they soon returned with anxious expressions. “Director Lewis, the necklace is gone.”

“Gone?” Director Lewis widened his eyes in shock. “No way!”

A necklace that cost nearly one hundred million is missing?

“Go find it! Everyone, look for it now!”

The bodyguards who guarded the lounge said, “No one entered except Gigi. The Heart of the Emperor is indeed missing.”

They are bodyguards working for MON & Co., so their words were credible.

Sky rushed to the studio upon receiving the news and found Zoe and Jean standing at the side.

“What’s going on?” Sky turned to Zoe. “Have you confirmed the necklace before it went missing?”

Zoe nodded. “I’m sorry, Mr. Wilton.”

She had seen the necklace when she checked it just now.

Furthermore, she was unable to explain what went wrong. In her confusion, she suddenly recalled Jean’s gaze at the time and turned to look at her. However, Jean now looked indifferent as usual.

Jean sensed Zoe’s probing gaze. She met Zoe’s gaze and smiled. “What’s wrong?”

Sky noticed Zoe looking at Jean and scolded, “Jean, did you check the necklace?”

Jean looked up at him.

So, he finally shows his true colors.

Now that the necklace is missing, he is looking for someone to place the blame on.

Unfortunately for him, my plan is flawless.

Jean answered frankly, “I’ve checked before Zoe went in to check.”

Sky frowned even more deeply. Is it not what I thought? That makes sense. They are too many people and witnesses. Even if Jean panned to frame Gigi, she wouldn’t use such a stupid method. A simple investigation would have exposed her.

Jean blinked and said, “The surveillance camera should have caught the thief.”

Sky stopped suspecting her and ordered, “Check the surveillance footage.”

Everyone looked at the surveillance footage. It showed Jean went in first, followed by Zoe. There was nothing suspicious up to that point.

However, Gigi was the last to enter the lounge, and she came out holding something.

Everyone looked at Gigi accusingly and prompted her to panic.

“No, it wasn’t me! I didn’t do anything.” She gulped and tugged Linda’s arm. “Help me to explain now.”

Linda shook her head. “Gigi, if you took it…”
