Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185

Chapter 185 Daughter-in-law of the Ludwig Family

Jean heard more unkind discussions about her. “I heard she recently stayed with Edgar for a few days. How can there be such a shameless person?”

“Does this mean Edgar is the one who brought her here?”

“No way!” “She probably came here herself to get close to Edgar. What a joke!” Jean went to the reception counter at the entrance. The staff asked, “What is your company name?”

“Eyer Group.” Jean answered firmly with determination in her eyes. I do not need to explain anything to these people. All I need to do is to tell everyone here that Eyer Group shall rise again!

However, that task was harder than she imagined. After registration, she took her number tag and headed toward the hall. However, someone blocked her way.

“It seems Pillars Summit has such low admission criteria these days. How can they simply let any lowly scum enter here? Eyer Group? Ha, didn’t this company go bankrupt two years ago due to tax evasion? Even the previous owner is dead. How did it suddenly pop up here?”

“Tyler, you should watch what you say. She might have powerful support that we don’t know of. After all, she was in prison.”

“You’re right…”

Mr. Sans continued to look at Jean disdainfully.

His gaze was full of mockery.

This man was Ally’s elder brother, Tyler Sans. He had heard from Ally that Jean was the one who ruined the marriage alliance between the Sans and Ludwig family.

Thus, he was determined to shame Jean today.

Unfortunately for him, Jean was not like the wealthy ladies he knew. She neither cowered as they thought she would nor showed any anger. Instead, she glanced at him coldly and replied in an even tone, “I also did not expect an attendee of the Pillars Summit to speak worst than a barbarian.”

“Who are you calling a barbarian?”

“I believe that person would know it himself.”

The surrounding turned quiet. Still, there was not a hint of hesitation in Jean’s eyes.

“Is this something a young lady should say?” People began to whisper amongst themselves.

However, they could not deny Jean’s response had shut Tyler and those with him.

Two men stood watching in the distance.

“Is it okay to do nothing?” Nathan whispered, “Tyler Sans is here on behalf of Sans Group. He is surrounded by people who wish to align with the Sans family. They are always up to no good when they gather.”

These men are a bunch of scoundrels who had some beef with Jean, and that beef concerned Ben.

Edgar’s expression darkened as he responded coldly, “What does it have to do with me?”

Nathan smiled and nudged his arm. “Although you now say this, I’m sure you will say something to embarrass Tyler during the meeting to avenge Ms. Eyer.”

Edgar could not deny that was what he planned to do, so he turned away.

Nathan suddenly noticed Tyler and his gang closing in on Jean. “Edgar, I think you shouldn’t wait anymore…”

Edgar was already dashing toward Jean before Nathan could finish speaking.

However, he stopped after a few steps.

It was because someone beat him to Jean and shielded Jean from Tyler and his gang.

Edgar could not help but frown. I am a step too late.

He clenched his fists under his cuffs. At the same time, his handsome face turned forlorn.

“Ben?”

Jean looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure before her realization hit her.

From what she could remember, Ben rarely wore suits. This time, he wore a formal suit and even changed his hairstyle.

He no longer seemed like a happy-go-lucky boy but a calm and mature man.

“Let’s talk later.”

Ben ignored the crowd watching them and held Jean’s hand.

“Tyler, how dare you bully my people?” Ben said through gritted teeth and narrowed his eyes intimidatingly.

The young men standing with Tyler began to hesitate. They exchanged glances and retreated from Ben. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
