Chapter 523

The person who sent Edgar this photo knew about his relationship with Jean.

An address was sent to Edgar too.

Edgar knew this message was purposely sent to him, but he still drove over.

However, he did not see Jean at the restaurant.

At last, he spotted Hugo’s car in the car park.

Edgar double-confirmed Hugo’s car plate number and quickly chased up to Hugo’s car.He stopped Hugo’s car with his.He acted like a teenager madly in love.He knocked on Hugo’s car window loudly.

When Hugo lowered his car window, Edgar quickly peeked into Hugo’s car.

“Where is she?”

Hugo laughed when he saw Edgar’s anxiousness.He laughed, “I didn’t expect Mr.Royden to have such a romantic side.Why did you two divorce at first?”

“None of your business.”

Edgar quickly returned to his senses when he was sure that Jean wasn’t there.He put his hand on Hugo’s car door and spoke coldly.

“Although her aunt is trying hard to bring the two of you together, you should know that she is uninterested in you.”

“Uninterested? Mr.Royden, you do not seem to understand her.Although we have only met each other a few times, I’m sure she will not refuse…someone like me.”

Hugo spoke solemnly.He was not boasting.He had chosen his words carefully.

Every time he had a date with Jean, they always had a pleasant conversation.It was a great start.

After all, they weren’t at the age when they would easily fall in love anymore.

Edgar stared at his face silently.He was a little angry.

However, Hugo seemed calmer compared to Edgar.

“Mr.Royden, rather than wasting your time stopping me here, why don’t you go find out what’s happened at Eyer Group? She told me something came up with her company and just left”

When Edgar heard this, he frowned.He immediately went back to his car and headed straight to Eyer Group.

Hugo sat in his car, confused.

“Why did he divorce her if he still loved her? It’s too late to regret now.”

Edgar called Miles while he was on his way to Eyer Group.He told Miles to head over as well.

They met at the Eyer Group’s lobby, then went up together.

Rachel stopped them outside Jean’s office.

“She is in, isn’t she?” Edgar asked before trying to enter Jean’s office.

But a few other male employees behind Rachel were blocking him as well.

The man frowned and stopped.

“I’m sorry, Mr.Royden.You are too late.Ms.Eyer has left.”

Rachel replied coldly.Edgar frowned even harder.

“Would you still stop me if she wasn’t in?”

She was hiding from him.

“Then, Mr.Royden, you should know this means Ms.Eyer does not wish to see you,”

Rachel said straightforwardly.

“Now that the acquisition is in progress, you will just have to wait for forty-three more hours for Eyer Group to be yours.”

The other employees behind her gave them a hostile glare.It was the first time Edgar had experienced such treatment.

Miles kept beckoning at Rachel with his eyes.

But it was useless.

Rachel was too furious to care.She had the strong urge to scold Edgar further.But at this moment, Xena hurried over with a few security guards from Royden Group.

“Mr.Edgar, are you alright?”

Xena smiled and asked with concern.

Then she ordered the guards, “Tear down this company!”

“How dare you!”

Rachel and the other male employees stepped forward for a fight.

“This company is going to change its owner soon anyway.Is there a problem with us tearing down our own company?”

Xena sneered.

“If you do not respect Mr.Edgar, you do not qualify to work here.”

Rachel and the others were completely infuriated.

The guards from Royden Group were all trained.

They were ready to act immediately upon receiving orders.

“Enough.”

Edgar roared coldly.

Then he turned around to leave.

“Mr.Edgar!”

Xena thought she had successfully stopped Edgar from meeting with Jean when she saw Edgar leave.Her plan of acquiring Eyer Group would go on smoothly if Jean and Edgar didn’t meet.She didn’t know how much Edgar detested her now.She was like a second Gigi Reece made by Edbert.

Jean saw everything that happened clearly from her room.

The louder it was outside, the calmer she felt.

So, when Rachel dashed into her room to complain furiously, she did not feel anything.

Even the look in her eyes was calm.

“Ms.Eyer, are you not angry at all? I quite liked the idea of Mr.Edgar chasing you again before this.I thought he was more attentive to you and had helped Eyer Group quite a lot then.But now, he is exactly like a hypocrite!”

Rachel was too furious.

If not, she would not have said something like this.

Moreover, she had worked for Jean for a very long time.She was worried for Jean.

Luckily, Jean did not plan to reconcile with Edgar.

Or else, she would end up having nothing—not money or love.

Jean did not answer Rachel for a long time.

The look on her face was extremely calm.

“Ms.Eyer?”

Jean hummed slowly.

Then she looked at the scenery outside her window and said, “I don’t know about the others, but you should know that my purpose of rebuilding Eyer Group was to take revenge on Royden Group.

At that time, I naively thought I could bring Royden Group down if I worked hard enough and avenged my father.”

“Now, when I think back, it feels like a dream.”

“I don’t have any basic knowledge or talent in managing a business.How can I fight Edgar Royden? I can only use little tricks on him”

Moreover, he had given her much leeway.He was not bothered about her and even left her opportunities to exploit him.

“Ms.Eyer…

“He knew I was in dire need of cash flow.That is why this acquisition is happening right now.”

Jean looked at Royden Tower opposite her office.

She smiled.

“I did not talk to him because I know this is not his doing.” Royden Group was more complicated than she had expected.

Rachel could feel an unexplainable sorrow as she looked at Jean’s back.

“Then why did you not go see him?” Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Rachel lowered her voice.

“Perhaps the misunderstanding between you two will be gone after you meet each other”

“Then he will make a fuss just to get Eyer Group back for me and ruin the whole Royden Group?”

Jean shook her head.

“That would be falling into Edbert’s trap’ The only way to see the truth was to stay out of the situation.

Rachel understood now.But the company will be Royden Group’s in less than two days.

“Ms.Eyer, what else can we do?”

Jean nodded slowly.

“We shall prepare a huge gift for Edbert.Since he wants to snatch my father’s lifelong hard work, I’m afraid he’ll have to spill some blood in exchange for it.”

“Ms.Eyer, what else can we do?”
