EDGAR’S RELENTLESS PURSUE FOR THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE - Season 1 Episode 83

The guests were chattering in a lively atmosphere outside. Jean stood by the window and peeked outside. “Come over and sit down.” Edgar had a sinking feeling in his heart.

Jean tiptoed to look outside. She looked perfect and sexy in her dress. Edgar got agitated as he had to control his desire. Jean didn’t notice Edgar looking at her. She put her hands on the blinds and stared at the people outside. She looked cute when her mouth tilted slightly. Edgar had fallen for the tiny and mischievous girl. Contents belong The man was absent-minded for a while, but soon he composed himself. He gritted his teeth and called out Jean’s name.

“Jean.” “I’m coming.” Jean walked toward Edgar while holding back her laughter. Edgar clenched his fists and asked, “Is it that funny?”

“Well, a little.” Jean replied. When she stirred her coffee, the spoon made a tinkling sound. In the past, Edgar had always scolded her for her indecent behavior. When Jean thought about it, she stirred her coffee even harder.

She felt so relieved for not having to listen to anyone now. Edgar seems like a nicer person when he can’t control me. “How is it, Mr. Royden? Are you satisfied with my wedding gift?” Jean asked with a smile. “Hey, you should go out now! How can the wedding go on without the groom?”

Edgar suppressed his anger. “I’m just reminding you.” Jean shrugged. She stopped provoking Edgar as she could see that he was in a bad mood. Meanwhile, Ben was looking for Jean outside.

He tried to call Jean, but he couldn’t reach her. Besides, he got more anxious when he heard that Jean was taken away by Edgar after she had a fight with Gigi.

After a while, Miles walked into the room and reported the matter to Edgar. Edgar stared coldly at Jean, but he didn’t tell her that Ben was looking for her.

After Miles left, Edgar spoke with Jean, “I won’t interfere with the conflict between you and the Reece family. However, don’t blame me for being ruthless if your plans affect the Royden Group.”

Jean blinked and pretended not to understand what he said. Her final goal precisely was to bring down the Royden Group! One day, I must let him bow before me.

“If you have nothing else to say, let’s go out now! I still haven’t congratulated you on your wedding ceremony.” Jean stood up and urged Edgar, “Let’s go!”

Edgar was speechless.

She finally revealed her purpose.

Edgar took her card out and threw it in front of her, “You may leave now.”

She always had a way of stirring up his anger.

Jean immediately picked her card up. “Thank you. I have signed an agreement with the debt collection company to repay the money I owe on a monthly basis. So, don’t expect me to use this money on my debt.”

After speaking, she dashed out of the room at as quick as her legs could carry her.noveldrama

She was afraid that Edgar would go back on his promise.

His bodyguards could be seen everywhere. Jean couldn’t bear the consequences if he got annoyed. Her plan succeeded only because she was right about Edgar and Gigi’s relationship. He didn’t like Gigi at all.

He was indeed a ruthless and cold-hearted person.

The reason Edgar approached Gigi was to expand the Royden Group by merging with the Reese Group. However, after Sam was involved in Carl’s car accident, the Reese Group’s share price dropped significantly.

That was Jean’s first plan, to stop the Royden Group from becoming more powerful.

When she walked out, she ran into Ben, who was looking for her.

“Where have you been?” Ben asked Jean anxiously. He dragged Jean and looked around vigilantly. “Did he do anything to you?”

Ben’s voice was full of concern.

“I’m fine, but why are you here?”

Jean smiled and added, “I bet you haven’t eaten anything yet. Let’s go to the most expensive restaurant! I’ll treat you!”

“Pigs might fly!”

“Hey, are you coming?!” Jean smiled and asked.

She couldn’t stop laughing when she pictured Edgar’s fit of anger earlier.

A man in a silver-white suit was secretly staring at her at the end of the corridor. He was moved by her sweet smile, but he managed to control his feelings for her.

“I I agree to invest in MON & Co.’s next season design competition.”

Miles was surprised as the proposal was rejected by Edgar previously.

But Miles responded very quickly. “Okay, I’ll let them know.”

In the end, Jean was unwilling to invite Ben to a feast. So, the two of them enjoyed their dinner at a homecooked-style restaurant.

When they were eating, Ben received a call from his mom. His expression changed immediately.

He mumbled a few words in front of Jean.

“Is there something wrong?” Jean ate a piece of kelp while asking. “As long as it’s not related to money, just let me know if you need help.”

Money was really important to Jean then.

Ben’s eyes lit up.

But before he could speak, his phone rang again. He immediately pressed the reject button when he saw the caller id.

Ally had called him more than ten times.

He couldn’t come up with a perfect solution, so he chose to avoid her call.

Jean muttered, “She’s just a clingy little girl. You should be able to handle it with your past experiences.”

“It isn’t just her.” Ben frowned. “My mother said the Royden Group has been requesting for us to collaborate. My dad is very interested in this project too. However, Edgar has been forcing the price

down, so they want me to marry Ally as soon as possible in order to expand our company and get a better quotation from the Royden Group.”

What Mrs. Ludwig actually meant was that they could get married first, then get divorced later. Since Ben was a guy, Ally would be the one at loss.

Ben sighed helplessly.

Jean just stared at him as she didn’t know how to comfort him. She was Edgar O

With grateful that her wedding back then went on very smoothly as Edgar’s parents had passed away a long time ago.

On the other hand, Ben wasn’t allowed to make his own decision.

“The food is getting cold. Let’s eat first.” Jean tried to break the ice.

Jean had plenty of things to take care of by herself. So, she really had no time for other people’s problems.

Ben could either compromise or find m

other solutions to expand their business. But no matter which, Jean knew she didn’t have the ability to help him.

“Jean, can you…”

“I’ll pay the bill.” Jean smiled while taking out her card. “Sit still! Today, it’s on me.”

That meal cost a hundred at most.

Ben decided not to ask Jean for help.

He couldn’t bear to see her lose her smile even though he was eager for her help.
