Chapter 220 The Reason of Heartache

In the conference room. Edgar fixed his cold-eyed stare at the marketing manager during the analysis presentation. His menacing and cold aura had everyone in the conference room sitting on pins and needles.

“At the moment, besides Eyer Group, we have analyzed and shortlisted a few companies that we think are qualified to undertake this project. Among them are Reece Group, Ludwig Group…”

As the manager spoke, he could sense a menacing attention looming toward him. Edgar gazed at him while lifting his head slightly. Edgar might have darted him an indifferent gaze but there was pronounced intimidation in it.

The manager was terrified. The laser pointer almost slipped out of his hand as it was shaking uncontrollably. All the other managers cast him a commiserating gaze.

In such a sensitive time, it was unwise of him to bring up Eyer Group in front of Edgar. Andy was the only one who dared to push Edgar’s button. “Carry on.” He said with a chuckle while leaning backwards.

The manager wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, turned around, and painstakingly resumed his presentation, “The strength of Reece Group is…”

He was still talking on his point when…

The door of the conference room was abruptly pushed open, and Jean appeared in the conference room. “Wait a moment!” Everyone was distracted by her exclamation.

Edgar’s eyes were on Jean. He stared at her with his mysterious and compelling eyes. The way he looked at her made her uneasy. It was reasonable for him to be upset since she showed up in his

company uninvited, and disrupted their meeting.

But she had no choice but to try her luck, perhaps it would work out. Fortunately, Edgar didn’t call the security guards to chase her out but only stared at her.

Jean quickly entered the conference room and said, “The contract between Royden Group and Eyer Group hasn’t expired. This means that Royden Group has no right to unilaterally terminate the contract.”

Her proclamation had everyone scoffing. “Ms. Eyer, this is a meeting within Royden Group. How can you hijack our meeting?”

“That’s right. Your company has been procrastinating without a solution all this while. Are you trying to fool us for your own gain?” Jean bit her lips and endured all the mockery.

Andy looked around the conference room, the contemptuous smile on his face grew bigger, he threw his pen on the table and then said, “If I remember correctly, it was Mr. Royden who granted this project to Eyer Group. Now that there’s a hiccup in the project, can you articulate your viewpoint on this matter, Mr. Royden?

Edgar screwed a side eye at Andy and his sarcasm. His voice was as cold as winter, “Do you mean I am responsible for this?”

Andy propped himself up and spread out his palms, “Of course. Royden Group never condone malefactors. Whoever approved this project should own up to the mistake and resign. No?”

Toward the second half of his sentence, he said it while looking at the other managers in the room. Edgar was infamous for his callousness in managing the company. All the employees were terrified of him.

He would sack whoever weighed down the company value, or underperformed employees. Let alone the stillbirth of an important project that would affect the entire company.

Everyone was rattled to see Andy provoke Edgar. However, what Andy had said made sense too. Anyway, Eyer Group was only given this project through a special connection with Edgar, and it turned out that Eyer Group was a fraud.

In this case, Edgar had to take the blame. “There’s no need for Mr. Royden to take the blame. I’m here to settle this matter today!” Before Edgar could speak, Jean had already taken out the contract and laid it on the table.

Her action surprised everyone. Andy furrowed his brows even deeper and raised his voice, “Ms. Eyer, is this why you’re here? There’s a lot of witnesses here. You better know what you’re doing, otherwise, Royden Group will pursue this matter through lawsuit.”

He glowered and threatened Jean. He had never expected Jean to take this path! Is she here to own up to the responsibility? Edgar still didn’t speak. He just tilted his head and gave Miles a look. Miles came forward immediately, “Ms. Eyer, please take a seat.”
