Chapter 514
Since Edgar's business took off, he had never experienced such a cold treatment.
In the entire Eyer Residence, he was the only outsider.
When Susan saw him standing there in loneliness, she felt sorry for him.
"Mr.Royden, would you like to help out in the kitchen? Perhaps Ms.Eyer would forgive you."
This was the best idea Susan had in her mind.
"It's fine."
Edgar placed the contract on the top of the wine cellar and walked to them.
In front of the French window, Julia held Ellie in her arms while Hugo and Jean drank tea beside her.It was a blissful family picture.
Edgar was envious, yet he felt helpless.
Jean had noticed his gaze since the beginning, but she didn't understand why he chose to stay.
Miles could have sent the contract over, yet he came here on his own.
Thinking about his words before, Jean frowned.
Julia shot a look at them and brought Ellie to Jean.
"Ellie, do you like Jean?" Ellie nodded with a smile.
"Of course!"
"Do you want to see her every day?" Ellie nodded.
"Yes!"
She held Jean tightly, refusing to let go.
Meanwhile, Hugo looked at them with a warm smile.
Edgar was the only person in the living room who looked cold.
When he tried to teach Ellie the last time, they had an argument, so he didn't want to repeat his mistakes.
At that moment, the doll Ellie was holding fell to the ground.
Edgar immediately walked over and picked it up for her.
"Let me help you with this"
A gentle expression was shown on his usually indifferent face.
After picking up the doll, he handed it to her and said, "There are strawberry tarts in the kitchen.Would you like some?"
In that instant, all three of the adults looked at him.
Even Jean was surprised.
Is this man Edgar? He was usually dour and was not good at getting along with kids.
Yet, he was willing to put his pride down and pick up a toy for Ellie.He felt like a stranger to her at that moment.
She even wondered if she was hallucinating.
Julia was the first to return to her senses.
She smiled and spoke before Ellie could reply.
"Susan is great at cooking — do try it out.I'll go first."
She got up and went to the kitchen, followed by Ellie.
As soon as Ellie stood up, Hugo followed suit.
When Jean wanted to get up, a warm hand appeared in front of her.
Edgar spoke in a low voice with a smile.
"Be careful"
Jean's eyebrows twitched, but she took his hand as support as she stood up.
"Just leave the contract here — I will have a look later.You can leave if you are busy."
She never thought he would stay since it would make things awkward for everyone.
However, his personality seemed to have changed.
