Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life novel Chapter 450

Chapter 450

Winnie smiled and took a couple of steps toward him.

"I went to get you some fruits."

She placed the bag of fruits in front of him and smiled warmly at him.She was as gentle as the first time they had met.

Sam's anger dissipated immediately.

"You can't keep going out like that.It's going to cause us more trouble if the reporters see you!"

Sam was also worried about tipping the police off to him having woken up.

"I took precautions.I wore a hat and a mask."

Winnie peeled an apple for him and offered him a piece.

"I'm just worried about the lawyer"

Sam immediately frowned.

"I'm just worried about the enemies you've made doing business all these years.What if someone offers more money and the lawyer betrays you..."

This was a possibility.It triggered Sam's paranoia.He sat up.

Winnie gently prompted, "I think it'll be better if you hire a few more lawyers.Just to be safe"

She put down the knife and found Sam staring hard at her.She shook his head and smiled helplessly.

"The both of us are in the same boat.I, more than anyone else, hope you'll turn this around.If you felt I spoke out of place earlier, you can ignore what I said"

She stood up and started tidying up.She took the kettle and left the room.

Once the door closed, she let out a sigh of relief.She slipped out her phone and sent a quick text to Jean.

‘I've done as you instructed: At that exact moment, Jean was in a meeting with Robert Martin, the lawyer.She handed him her business card.

"I know that previously, you were sent by Royden Group to help me.This time, I'd like to hire you to help me with something else."

"This is..."

Robert looked perplexed.

"Ms.Eyer, does Mr.Royden know about this?"

"Of course, he knows.I wouldn't have dared to ask for your help otherwise."

Jean knew he would ask that.She had been prepared for it.There was no sign of nervousness whatsoever.Robert took the card from her.

"Okay then.What is it you need my assistance with?"

Half an hour later.

Robert was standing in the corridor.He looked betrodden.

"Ms.Eyer, I don't think it's possible.Gabriel Ross is one of the best defense lawyers in the country.I have no confidence in beating him"

Jean nodded.

"I know how you feel." Robert sighed heavily.

"Let's go then."

He did not have the courage to go up against Pinnacle Group and Gabriel Ross.He was digging his own grave by staying here.He harbored so much regret inside, but this was not the time to be greedy.

Jean hummed before turning back to look at him with a smile.

"But what if you win? You'd be the lawyer that beat the once undefeatable Gabriel Ross.This is a chance to make a name for yourself! Aren't you even a little bit tempted?"

Robert was convinced.

"Are you looking for Mr.Ross?"

His secretary greeted them with disdain.She opened his appointment schedule and said, "I'm sorry, but Mr.Ross is fully booked for the next couple of days."

It was obvious she didn't think they were worth their time.

Jean had seen this coming.She handed the secretary her business card.

"Please let Mr.Ross know I'm looking for him."

The secretary took her card and gave her a faint smile.

"Sure."

Jean turned and left.

Robert followed closely behind.

They had just left the building when they saw a car coming their way.

"Hide!"

Jean yelled.
