Chapter 351 Not Disturbing Mr Royden
No matter how hard Edgar worked to redeem their ridiculous marriage, from Jean’s point of view, he had never considered her feelings and circumstances.
He had worked very hard indeed, but things between them had long changed with time. If he didn’t let go, Jean could only play along forcefully.
The car drove slowly, and Jean mentally calculated the time. She took her cell phone out and sent a text message. The man’s gaze swept over her, but he didn’t stop her. Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the hotel.
Jean didn’t put on the complex and outrageous gown that he had sent. She had on a long, silvery-white dress instead. It outlined her beautiful figure and was very elegant. Most importantly, it was easy for her to walk in.
Once Jean got out of the car, she looked around and determined the targets she was going to interact with. Her gaze swept around, and she had a plan.
Edgar watched all of her reactions, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips. He walked in alongside her.
Just as Jean was about to abandon him and run toward a potential business partner, Edgar put out his hand to grab her wrist in a timely manner.
“Let go of me.”
Jean turned around and frowned, baffled. “What do you want, Mr. Royden?”
“You’re throwing away your admission ticket as soon as you walk in. Is that appropriate?”
Jean was speechless. To her, Edgar was of such use. Otherwise, why would she attend such a function with him?
“Don’t misunderstand, Mr. Royden. I’m doing it so that you can have a pleasant night.”
Jean raised her chin. Not far away, near the bar, there was a long-legged model who had been staring at Edgar.
They didn’t care if Edgar already had a family. As long as they could spend a night with the man, they could change their destiny.
Even if they couldn’t, they didn’t think that they would be at a loss.
After all, Edgar had a first-rate appearance and figure.
Edgar’s brows furrowed. “What do you take me for?”
He had previously said that he wouldn’t touch anyone else other than her.
“Just play along. You don’t have to be so angry, Mr. Royden.” Jean smiled. Just as the servers were bringing out the champagne, she took the opportunity to leave Edgar’s side.
One of her targets was a man in front of her in silver-framed glasses. He was the president of Rukh Group, Hugo Mason.
Everyone in the industry said that his family used to be in the gold mining business, but business hadn’t been good for the past few years, so they reinvested in domestic markets and developed real estate.
Rich and imposing were the best ways to describe the Mason family.
There were rumors that Hugo was divorced and that he had a daughter, but it seemed as though this didn’t affect his popularity among the rich debutante ladies.
But he turned down all the women who delivered themselves to him.
It was as if there was only one reason for that. They couldn’t handle his daughter.
After a while, those socialites would gaze at him from afar and didn’t dare to make a move rashly.
Within a few minutes, Jean found an opportunity, and while there was no one next to Hugo, she made her way over with a name card she had in her hands.
“Can I speak with you, Mr. Mason?”
Hugo had already noticed Jean earlier on. It was hard for others to ignore her presence.
Seeing her walk to him, a certain possibility streaked across his heart. After all, too many women tried to cling to him, including gorgeous ones.
But…
Jean was the first to give him a name card so directly.
She smiled. “I’m very sorry if I’m disturbing you.”
Although she said that, she didn’t withdraw her name card. It was as if she insisted on him keeping it.
A trace of a smile flickered across Hugo’s face. He lifted his hand and took it from her. His thin lips read out the gilded words on the name card. ‘Jean Eyer.’
