Chapter 118

Chapter 118 Ten Million Is Not up for Discussion

Jean Eyer hadn’t fully awoken from her slumber. “There’s something wrong with my cellphone. I sent it for repair.”

“Do you know about Mr. Wilton getting robbed? He got hurt and is in the hospital. We’re planning to go see him together, do you want to come?”

“He got robbed? When did this happen!” Jean Eyer frowned. “In the middle of the night yesterday, around twelve.”

It was around the time she left Edgar Royden’s villa and started walking home. Jean Eyer pondered and said through gritted teeth, “Where should I meet you?”

She left the house after that. What she didn’t know was that five minutes after she left, the door of her house was opened. “Move quickly. Don’t leave any trace behind.”

“Yes!” Twenty minutes later, she reached the city hospital. Jean Eyer met up with Sally Lance and Kellan Lincoln at the entrance. Jean Eyer’s brows tightened when she heard Sally Lance tell her what happened.

After the photoshoot that day, Sky Wilton was fine.

He reached the office safe and sound and didn’t tell a single person about what happened in the car between him and Jean Eyer. But last night, he was suddenly robbed. It was a police officer on duty nearby that sent him to the hospital.

“I heard it wasn’t a common robbery. Mr. Wilton only lost his watch that was worth a couple hundred thousand,” said Kellan Lincoln. “but the robber didn’t take any cash in his car.”

“Since Mr. Wilton was robbed, there’s no way he can participate in the big VK show this weekend.”

“It couldn’t be that someone from a rival company set this up on purpose?”

Their imagination went wild, and the worse their speculations got.

As for Jean Eyer, she had never been so clear-headed.

The day she escaped from Sky Wilton’s car, it was Edgar Royden who took her away. He must’ve known what happened. Sky Wilton was targeted last night and found by the police, but they couldn’t find any clues.

It meant that the person behind this robbery was not only well-concealed but also very powerful.

There was a very high possibility of it being Edgar Royden!

But Jean Eyer didn’t understand. Why did he do this? Was it to help her get back at him?

She went into the hospital room with them in the face of confusion. Zoe Hadly and Anna Sue were there as well.

“Mr. Wilton, please take care of yourself.” As soon as Sally Lance looked up, she saw the gauze on Sky Wilton’s head wrapped up as tightly as a beehive and antiseptic applied on his eyes. She was dangerously close to laughing out loud.

Kellan Lincoln coughed and tried to smooth things over. “Mr. Wilton, I hope you get well soon.”

Sky Wilton glanced over. His body was so badly beaten up he could barely move. His gaze fell on Jean Eyer, the meaning behind it unclear.

Zoe Hadly said, “Mr. Wilton needs to rest. You should go home.”

“Alright, we’ll leave.” Kellan Lincoln pulled Sally Lance along.

Sally Lance looked down to keep herself from laughing.

“Jean Eyer, hold on. I need to talk to you.”

Jean Eyer’s footsteps paused. She saw Zoe Hadly pulling Anna Sue out before locking the hospital room door.

“I never thought that you were so capable.” This came from Sky Wilton.

But his voice no longer sounded as nice as it used to. In contrast, it felt a little colder and huskier.

Jean Eyer moved the corner of her lips. “Mr. Wilton, I think you’ve misunderstood. I am powerless now, what do you mean capable?”

“You…” Sky Wilton ground his teeth in anger.

Zoe Hadly went over to hold on to him. She said in a low voice, “Let me say it.”

She patted Sky Wilton’s back before he slowly calmed down.

“Mr. Wilton getting robbed was only a pretense. In actuality, it was a one-sided assault. The person who beat him up was sent by Edgar Royden. You should know about this, Jean Eyer!”

Jean Eyer shook her head. “I don’t know anything.”

She would be imagining things if she really didn’t know anything.
