Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 197

Chapter 197 Seen Through As soon as she asked Edgar that question, the senior managers looked at Edgar as well. They silently hoped that Edgar would take back his orders. If not, the board of directors might make a huge fuss over this change.

Edgar slowly spoke under their gaze. "You are right. It will indeed affect the final profit." The managers' eyes lit up. There's hope! "Ms. Eyer is indeed insightful." "Right right right..."

But no matter how they praised Jean, she did not show any reaction. She merely looked at Edgar and spoke calmly. "You still want to go on with your new decision even though it might affect the profit. Am I right?"

The man smiled. He did not expect Jean to be the person who understood him the best among all these people. Edgar replied curtly. "Yes."

The managers' hopes all went down at that instance. They had no confidence in changing Edgar's mind. Moreover, they could never guess what he was thinking. Jean turned around and met Edgar's gaze. There was uncertainty in her eyes. "May I know why?"

If Edgar allowed her to participate in this meeting, that means he was ready to let her intervene. She waited very long for his reply. Just as she was about to give up waiting for an answer, the man said. "Look at the collaboration case two years ago between Royden Group and Yenny Group. Then you'll understand."

Jean immediately typed it into the laptop.

Edgar did not waste any time on this. "Go on."

The senior managers hurriedly adjusted themselves. "The next report is about..."

The meeting went on for about half an hour. Jean continued to take notes until Edgar said, "Let's end it here."

Her wrist was starting to get a little sore.

"Rest well, Mr. Royden. We shall leave first." The managers got up and said goodbye.

As soon as they stepped out of the door, they gathered around and started gossiping.

"What's going on? Mr. Royden seems to have a very tacit understanding with his ex-wife!"

"And she seems to be staying at his house!"

"Hush! This matter cannot be disclosed to anyone in the company. Got it?"

"Yes, of course, Mr. Kole. Why would we tell anyone about this?"

As soon as they exited the villa's gate, Nathan drove in.

He looked at the few managers of Royden Group and frowned. "Why do they have a weird smile?"

When he entered the villa with a bag of medicine and fruits he saw a special scene.

Jean was holding something in her hand, and was having a heated argument with Edgar.

Edgar's eyes were smiling as she shouted at him.

Nathan rubbed his eyes. Was he mistaken?

Was this person Edgar Royden?

"Edgar, you lied to me. You hypocrite."

Edgar did not say anything.

Nathan took a deep breath. He was certain that he was not hallucinating, Edgar was indeed crazy.

He wouldn't let anyone question him like this.

That person might disappear from the face of Earth without anyone realizing it after speaking to Edgar like this.

Nathan coughed and walked over. "Edgar, are you feeling better?"

Jean snorted and stormed upstairs.

She had been his maid for the whole day, but he still refused to let her go!

This was oppression and a threat.

Jean sat on the sofa, contemplating on ways she could use to rid herself off Edgar.

In the living room, after Jean left, coldness covered Edgar's face once more. "What did the Sans family say?"

Nathan shook his head and put his things down. He sat down on one side. "Albert's attitude was good. He kept saying that he would be responsible for your injury. But Tyler Sans..."

Nathan stopped for a while before continuing, "He returned home from a bar drunk this morning. He does not seem to be taking this matter to heart at all."This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Edgar narrowed his eyes and looked upstairs at the closed door. "Who was he drinking with last night?"

"I think he went with a group of rich kids. I didn't really ask." Nathan only realized that Edgar's expression was off when he finished speaking. "Do you think someone is behind this?"

Edgar did not answer.

Nathan suddenly thought of something. "I think I saw your company's car nearby when I brought you out of the hospital. Whose was it again?"

The tenser the situation was, the harder it was to think whose car it was.

Edgar said solemnly. "It makes sense if it was someone from Royden Group."

"Do you mean that we have a mole in the group?”

"I'm not quite sure. I need to look into it." Edgar put his laptop on the table. "For now, don't tell Jean about this."

Although Nathan was a slow-witted person, he got Edgar's meaning.

"Are you going to use Eyer Group as bait?"

If things stayed calm, the mole would not have a chance to take action. Then it will be difficult for them to catch it.

Edgar was simply going to use this irresistible project as bait.

This project was considered a very important project for Royden Group, so the mole will definitely take action out of greed.

When Edgar obtained all evidence, he would close his net.

"So that is why you took such drastic and unusual measures!" Nathan slapped his thigh. "Smart."

But he froze the next second.

"What will Jean do if she knows that you used her..."

Jean already hated him a lot.

It would definitely be worse if this blow was added onto it.

"She wouldn't." Edgar smiled. "Because I'm serious about working with Eyer Group."

It was true that he would be using Jean in the process of catching the mole, but she would be satisfied with the outcome of their collaboration.

Nathan leaned against the sofa and took a deep breath. "You really are..."

Before he could finish his words, Edgar's phone rang. It was the law firm.

Edgar did not want to answer it but when he saw Jean coming out from her room, he put on a cold face and entered his study.

He signaled at Nathan to not spew nonsense before closing the door.

Nathan nodded.

But as soon as Jean came down, he rushed over to her. "Is Edgar's wound better?"

"I don't know. I'm not a doctor." Jean was hungry. She had been nursing Edgar the whole day and been in the meeting with him.

She must eat more of his food to repay the labor she had to do in his house.

Nathan followed her to the kitchen.

"Jean, can I ask you a question?"

"I don't know if I'd know the answer to your question." Jean opened the om fridge. She glanced up and down.

She washed a whole basket of strawberries in front of Nathan.

Nathan scratched his head. He felt that Jean was more confusing than Edgar.

"But, I think Mr. Knox will be able to answer my question first." Jean brought the strawberries which she had finished washing, and put them before Nathan. She asked slowly. "Did anything happen to Edgar lately?" Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Gag.

Nathan almost swallowed a whole strawberry.

Jean's smile widened when she saw Nathan's reaction. "I'm right, am I not?"

Cold sweat broke out on Nathan's forehead.

Why did they divorce?

They are clearly a match made in heaven!

Jean stared at him and spoke slowly.

"From the moment Edgar announced the collaboration with Eyer Group, there had been many objections. But he went on with his decision and insisted on working with Eyer Group."

"What does he want?"
