Chapter 3 Mr. Royden Will Not See You
Jean finished recording her statement at the police station and sat dispirited in a chair. She had waited for two hours, but Edgar did not show up. Instead, it was his lawyer who came.
The lawyer put down his briefcase and sat opposite Jean before handing her a few documents. “Ms. Eyer, Mr. Royden said if you sign this divorce agreement immediately, he will gift you the apartment at Westlake Mount.”
Although the lawyer spoke gently, he still kept a professional distance.
Jean felt heartbroken as she looked at the words ‘Divorce Agreement’ written in block letters on the document.
She suddenly laughed. Who would have known he would be this impatient to divorce?
The lawyer noticed Jean still hadn’t touched the pen and took out a few more documents from his briefcase. He gave them to Jean and explained, “These documents contain detailed information on Mr. Royden and your properties. Both of you do not have shared properties. The apartment at Westlake Mount is a compassionate gift from Mr. Royden. Furthermore, this document shows Mr. Royen’s equity split was last year. It means Eyer’s Group’s debt is your sole responsibility and not shared in this marriage. Therefore, Royden Group has no liability in this.”
Then, the lawyer took out another series of documents listing shares, residential properties, credit cards, and so on.
Jean’s heart sank. She finally realized it was all part of Edgar’s plan. He had devised and calculated everything thoroughly.
Furthermore, every step of his plan was flawless.
One can’t deny that he is intelligent. Otherwise, my father wouldn’t have been impressed by his capabilities and arranged for me to marry him.
Despite his young age, Edgar managed to amass wealth for Royden Group and made it a leading company in Westburgh.
My father wanted to choose the best man for me. He saw Edgar as a courageous and handsome young man with an incredible mind for business. Within a few years, Edgar raised his family from bankruptcy and created his business empire.
Furthermore, he escaped unscathed after Eyer Group went bankrupt.
