Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 119 I Can’t Hear That Well

Jean Eyer furrowed her brow. “I don’t care too much about things that don’t have anything to do with me.”

Maybe this was why she was never much of a gossipmonger. If it wasn’t for Sally Lance who fed her buzz through the grapevine, Jean Eyer might not have known today about Sky Wilton being in the hospital.

Sally Lance looked at her and after a while said, “Jean Eyer, I envy you.”

“You envy me?” Jean Eyer frowned and smiled lightly while shaking her head. “Envying Kellan Lincoln is better than envying me.”

Her cellphone vibrated with a buzz. It was a text message from the debt collection company.

Jean Eyer glanced at it and sent over the money that Winnie Campbell transferred to her. She also added, ‘I’ve discussed this with your boss. There are changes in the total amount of the debt.’

She wanted to pay this sum back as soon as possible and wipe clean all relationships she had with that man. Her days were filled with hardship. What was worth envying?

“I’m leaving. You guys go ahead.” Jean Eyer picked up her bag and left quickly. Sally Lance watched the leaving figure, and her gaze flickered.

Kellan Lincoln came back with food and when he noticed that Jean Eyer had left, he said regretfully, “I thought I could treat you both to a meal today.”

Sally Lance patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry, there’ll be more opportunities.”

Kellan Lincoln saw her innocent smile and asked her in a low voice, “Don’t you think the distance between us and Jean Eyer is further apart?”

Sally Lance was startled for a moment before taking the ice cream from his hand. “Eat up, or it’ll melt soon.”

Each mouthful was an icy, frosty feeling. She said while walking, “Jean Eyer has always been someone from a different world than us.”

Kellan Lincoln heard this, and all of a sudden, he didn’t know what to say.

Sally Lance looked at him and smiled. “Jean Eyer will go back to the world she came from sooner or later. With her abilities, I believe she can do it.”

She wouldn’t criticize Jean Eyer behind her back like people at the office. The respect and admiration she had for Jean Eyer were written in her eyes, not hidden at all.

In the afternoon that same day, Jean Eyer received a notification from the company. She would replace Sky Wilton as a newcomer and join next week’s big show.
