Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life novel Chapter 557

Chapter 557

Nathan was stunned for two seconds as he watched Jean walk toward the stairs. He looked at Edgar and asked anxiously, “Aren’t you going to stop her?”

Edgar was unbothered. He answered, “It’s one of her pregnancy mood swings. I wouldn’t dare.”

Nathan did not believe a word he said. There’s nothing Edgar Royden wouldn’t dare to do in Yorktown. They could even think of a cunning escape! It was…

The show that was going to happen was too exciting to miss. He didn’t know when such a showdown would happen again. He hurried after them.

Meanwhile, many of Royden Group’s directors were gathered in a private room. John raised his glass, and the others stood up enthusiastically.

“It’s all thanks to you, Mr. Blanc, that we were able to pull out and escape the fire pit.”

“Yeah. If not, we would be in the red.”

“Poor Mr. Royden. How unlucky must he be? The company was doing so well until Mr. Shaw left. Then it all turned into shambles. I bet it’s that ex-wife of his controlling him.”

The door opened, and Jean stood outside looking at them.

“Don’t you know to speak softer if you want to speak badly about other people? I control him? Mr.

Jameson, do you know how to read people?”

“You!”

Jean had come uninvited; behind her were Edgar Royden and Nathan Knox.

At that moment, the directors were all lost for words.

John was the first to break the silence.

“Don’t worry. Let’s continue our celebration. This guy isn’t our president anymore,” he said, unbothered.

The cautiousness among the crowd dispersed immediately. They didn’t have to please Edgar as they weren’t part of Royden Group anymore. Also, they were only speaking the truth. Their expressions turned to disdain in that instance. They looked at Edgar as though he were a pawn.

All their adoration from before was just a pretense. It proved that one shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.

Edgar’s glare turned icy as he memorized each of the faces there.

Some of them felt ashamed but chose to stay silent. Others stood by John and readily voiced out their thoughts.

“We didn’t invite you. You’re so shameless for coming uninvited!”

“After tomorrow, Royden Group will fall and never rise again.”

The fire in Jean burned even brighter when she heard those words, “Right, I hope you’ll all come to witness it tomorrow at Royden Group. You might regret it if you don’t come.”

“Regret? Ha! Aren’t you funny? Why would we regret it? We’ve already pulled out of it.”

Laughter rang out in the private room.

Jean bit her lip and turned to look at Edgar. She wanted to get his approval. When he nodded, Jean immediately went forward and overturned their table.

‘Crash!’

“What are you doing?” They exclaimed angrily.
