Chapter 230 Whoever Deals First Wins
“I already knew that Sam Reece wasn’t a good guy when Gary was alive. That daughter of his…” The man who said this had a face full of anger. He stopped mid-sentence as the thought of the marriage between the Roydens and the Reeces popped up in his mind. The man coughed and continued, “I didn’t mean it like that, I was just discussing the matter.”
“I get it, Zenith. I am very clear about what kind of person you are. But you need to know that you have just gotten back from overseas, there are many things you don’t know. My nephew is just trying to make it up to Jean.” Edbert sighed and then poured his old friend a cup of tea.
“I only advised you before because I was afraid that we would complicate things more if we involved ourselves in the youngsters’ matters.”
“I don’t care about that. Jean is my half-daughter. Don’t meddle in her business anymore, I will find a way out for her.” The man said and then left.
The cups of tea Edbert had poured still had steam coming from them.
He shook his head exasperatedly, “Zenith Rocher, you still have the same temper.”
…
Meanwhile, Gigi Reece was throwing a tantrum at the hospital. No matter what Edgar said, she just had one request; and that was to terminate the partnership with Eyer Group and never see Jean Eyer ever again.
“If you don’t promise me, I will…” She stopped herself and looked around the room, wanting to find something to threaten Edgar with.
The man’s eyebrows shot up, and he asked stonily, “What will you do? Will you try to jump off the building again?”
“I!” Gigi chewed on her lips as her face reddened. “Edgar, I don’t want to do that, but have you ever thought of my feelings? Do you know how many people are gossiping about me because of the entanglement between you and Jean? I am your rightful wife!”
Though, they had not had their ceremony or registered their marriage. But she was pregnant with his child. Jean should know to stand aside.
Gigi knew that the more she argued, the more it would work against her.
“Edgar, I promise my life to you. I’m different from Jean. She’s only getting close to you for revenge.” Gigi mumbled to Edgar as she leaned delicately on him.
“Revenge.” The man slowly spoke the words. His heart was in turmoil.
He knew that better than anyone, but he did not want to accept it.
“Yeah. My dad told me about the Eyer family; it was because her dad wasn’t an honest businessman that their business fell through the roof. It has nothing to do with you! You don’t have to make it up to her.” Jean said quickly when she saw the expression on Edgar’s face. She pulled at his arm.
“I think you should send her away as soon as you can. What if Eyer Group resurrects with this project? She’ll definitely use that to overthrow Royden Group! By then, it would be too late for you to do anything.” The words Gigi said were so toxic that it did not suit her beautiful face at all.
Edgar
‘s expression became frostier.
“So, you’re saying that I should make my move first?”
Gigi quickly nodded, “Yes, Edgar. If you want to, I’ll tell my dad, and he’ll definitely help you.” Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Edgar looked at her with an indescribable emotion, “Did your dad tell you to say this to me?”
“Yes… and no. I don’t want her to be with you either.” Gigi thought she was being reasonable. Since Winnie’s leaving, there had been no one to advise her. She could only rely on herself now! She was so immersed in her plans that she did not notice Edgar’s gaze.
“Edgar, I’m doing this for our future. I don’t think you’ll want people to speculate about the birth of our child, right? Or do you really think that the two of us cannot deal with one Jean Eyer?” Gigi’s tone was becoming more and more sad. She clutched the man’s arm, looking like a poor kitten.
Unfortunately, Edgar wasn’t one to fall for these kinds of tricks.
“I’ll think about it.” He said with a smirk.
