Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 154 Refused from Joining the Royden Group

Jean went to MON & Co. and stumbled upon Monica’s car at the entrance. Monica waved at her, gesturing Jean into her car as if she knew Jean would come today. Jean uttered half-heartedly, “Director Weller, I’m actually here to sort out my resignation.”

In fact, she really wanted to stay and carry through her ambition but…

Monica turned the steering wheel before she handed Jean a business card, “You have learned a lot in MON & Co. It’s not a bad idea for you to be an independent designer, given your talent. You don’t have to waste time in the corporate.”

Jean’s eyes lit up, and she gladly accepted the business card. Jimmy, jewelry broker. “Contact him. He can help you in your endeavor.” Monica drove into the parking lot. Jean quizzed, “Why did you help me during the entire time, Director Weller?”

Monica turned off the car engine. She looked at Jean while leaning over, “Haven’t you heard something about me? I don’t just like going to parties but also like being with women.”

She purposely misled Jean. Then, she simpered and got off the car upon seeing Jean’s bewildered face. Jean was caught in a daze until she finally understood Monica’s meaning.

No way! Very soon, everyone in the company were aware of Jean’s resignation.

Sally and Kellan came to send her off. Sally wept like a poor little child, “Will you please stay, Jean? I’m going to miss you so much. I will be so insecure and lonely without you here.”

Jean smiled as she looked at Sally, who had always been dependent on her, and then she looked at Kellan beside Sally, “Don’t you have a guardian angel now?”

Sally was stunned, and immediately, her face flushed in crimson.

Kellan immediately remarked, “Don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”

“You… What are you talking about! Did I say I need your protection?” Sally bantered Kellan as she wiped away her tears, “Then what happens to you after this?”

She overheard that Jean had a colossal debt to pay.

How would she live without a job? She had no income!

Jean shook her head, “We’ll see.”

Join the Royden Group?

No f*cking way!

She would compromise for Ben, but she would never compromise to that extent. She wanted to explore the option that Monica mentioned just now — to be an independent designer.

But only if that man would stop intervening in her life.
