Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life novel Chapter 188

Chapter 188

Chapter 188 Engagement?

Jean feigned ignorance and smiled. “Mr. Royden, I don’t quite understand what you mean. However, it seems we can no longer continue our negotiation. You should figure out how you can explain to her.”

While Edgar could easily destroy Jean whenever he wanted, Jean could use the Reece family to ruin his peace. Sam was shocked to hear Edgar had given a lucrative project to the Eyer Group. Thus, he sent Gigi to find out what had happened.

Although Jean may not be as astute as Edgar in business, she understood women much better than him. “Edgar, open the door!” Gigi continued shouting and almost slammed herself against the door.

However, Winnie gently pulled her away. “That’s enough. Lower your voice. There are many prominent people nearby.”

“So what? Who knows what tricks Jean had pulled this time to make Edgar give her such a large project? That shameless b*tch. I’ll…”

However, the door opened before Gigi could finish speaking. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Jean glanced at Gigi and said, “Ms. Reece, you should watch your mouth. You could be charged with defamation. Furthermore, you have ongoing court cases, so take it easy. Otherwise, who knows when the police would come knocking on your door again.”

Gigi’s expression turned livid. She was not as smart or eloquent as Jean. Thus, she had no choice but to watch Jean leave.

Then, she dashed into the meeting room. “Edgar, why must you do this? It’s bad enough that you returned that bankrupted company to her. Why must you also give her such a large project? Do you still have feelings for her?”

“Are you done speaking?” Edgar responded indifferently. He was unbothered by the Reece family’s threat. However, Gigi was pregnant with his child. It was annoying to have to keep hearing her complaining noisily before him.

“Edgar, I don’t wish to argue with you, but you are too close to Jean. Don’t you know what others would say? How can you not consider my feelings?” Gigi lowered her head and shed a few tears.

Edgar could not bear to speak harshly when she seemed so pitiful. “It was only about work. There was nothing else.” His tone remained calm as he walked past her. Gigi sniffled and looked up shyly at him. “Is that true?”

Edgar did not respond. Then, Gigi flung herself into his embrace and said, “That’s alright then. While I was rushing here, I heard Jean was planning to get engaged to Ben soon. Thus, it would be damaging to your reputation if there were any rumors about you and her.”

“She’s getting engaged?”

Edgar slowly clenched his fists. Gigi leaned into his embrace and replied, “Yes, I bumped into Mrs. Ludwig on my way here. She wanted to bring Jean to try wedding dresses…”

Since there was no response from Edgar, Gigi gradually stopped crying. No man would want a woman who has been with another man. Edgar is a brilliant and prideful man. He would never want a used good like Jean!

Meanwhile, Ben brought Jean to meet Farra outside the summit venue. Farra was full of smiles the instant she saw Jean and refused to let go of her hand. “We haven’t seen you since Benny was discharged from the hospital. His father and I miss you so much. Why do you never come to visit us?”

Jean turned to Ben for help. She had refused Farra’s invitation many times. The main reason was Jean did not know what to say if she were to meet them.

Thus, she had thought about it and felt it was better not to meet. However, she did not expect Farra to come all the way here. “What time does the summit end? I’ll wait here for you. We must have dinner together!” Farra grew fonder of Jean the more she looked at her.
