Chapter 329 Entrapment
While Jean was distracted, Gigi shoved her aside and ran into Edgar’s room in tears. As soon as she saw Edgar, she flung herself to him and said coyly, “Edgar, you’re finally awake. I was so worried about you. Are you okay?”
Edgar lay on the bed. He glanced past her face and looked toward the door. Gigi noticed where he was looking and immediately complained, “You have no idea how mean Jean was just now. Look at my hair and clothes. It was she who…”
Edgar coughed softly before she could finish speaking. The nurse beside her warned, “The patient has just woken up and needs to undergo detailed observation. Family members should not make too much noise and allow the patient to recuperate in peace.”
It was the nurse’s first time seeing such an unruly family member as Gigi. Gigi grumbled before going to Edgar and asked, “Edgar, what happened to you?”
She kept asking one question after another. Edgar did not even have the chance to say anything. Jean stood at the door and observed Edgar’s condition.
He looked exhausted and weak as Gigi kept tugging his arm. “Tell her to leave,” Edgar said those words coldly.
Gigi’s eyes flashed with delight. She immediately went to Jean. “Did you hear that? Edgar wants you to leave! He doesn’t want to see you. Don’t come here to bother him again.”
Thud.
Gigi closed the door and went to accompany Edgar.
Jean stood on her spot and felt her heart sink. She was alone in the empty corridor. Her thoughts grew conflicted.
There was something that she wanted to tell Edgar.
However, she hesitated and did not know how to begin.
When Gigi came out to the corridor to talk to the doctor, Jean was nowhere to be found.
Thus, she smirked with satisfaction. “I will take over your place completely one day.”
Then, she walked a few steps and saw Edbert coming over with his assistant.
“Uncle Edbert.” Gigi smiled sweetly. “Edgar had just fallen asleep. He might not be able to talk to you.”
Surprise flashed across Edbert’s face, but his expression soon returned to normal. “That’s good. I’m relieved to hear that. Anyway, I’ve brought some company documents to give him.”
Edbert glanced at his assistant, and the assistant handed the documents to Gigi.
Gigi recalled how Andy had used her and said hesitantly, “Uncle Edbert, I’m not Royden Group’s employee. Isn’t it inappropriate to give these to me?”
“That was in the past. But now, you and Edgar are legally married. Moreover, Royden Group shall eventually belong to you and him.” Edbert smiled meaningfully before turning around and leaving.
However, his expression changed as soon as he walked into the elevator.
“Get rid of everyone who failed the task. Don’t leave any trace.”
“Yes, sir.”
Edbert’s words left Gigi in a good mood the whole night.
She looked at the documents and was curious about them. What’s so important that Edbert had to send them here personally?
The thought ignited her curiosity again. She felt the urge to flip through the document.
Since Edgar was asleep and no one else was in the room, no one would know if she took a peek.
Jean touched the document with her fingertips.
“What are you doing?”
Edgar was fully awake and looked at her coldly.
Jean’s hand trembled and caused the document to fall to the floor. She was severely frightened and pursed her lips before stepping forward. “Edgar, you’re awake.” Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
“What is it?” Edgar looked at her. His eyes filled with emotions too complicated for her to understand, and his expression was threateningly cold.
Gigi looked away and said softly, “Uncle Edbert came by while you were sleeping. He told me to give this document to you. I… I didn’t mean to peek. I was…”
