Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 159 I Refuse To

The next morning, the villa was extraordinarily quiet. It was a rare morning that Jean didn’t have to see Edgar’s annoying face in the morning. Suddenly, she received a message from Monica.

‘Perles is going to shoot an ad soon.’ Jean was startled for a moment. ‘So?’

Monica was at a loss for words. Five minutes later, she replied with a message. ‘Don’t tell me you don’t know that you’re the main actress for the shoot.’ Jean’s mind went blank as she stared at the phone screen. Of course I don’t know!

Following that, she received a call from Sally. “Hey Jean, I bet you don’t know that everyone is talking about you in the company group chat. They speculated that you’ve jumped to Perles. Some even accused you of being a business spy from Perles and claimed that Mr. Wilton left the company thanks to you.” Sally exclaimed agitatedly and became more stirred up as she continued. She almost wanted to pick up a fight with the others to defend Jean!

“Jean might not even know about that.” Kellan whispered next to Sally.

Sally gritted her teeth and said, “You have the freedom to choose where to work. Who are they to point their fingers at you? Besides…”

Jean was no longer listening to what Sally said subsequently.

Moments later, she asked slowly, “Am I the only cast in the shoot?”

She had a hunch that the matter was not as simple as it seemed. Before this, Edgar and Gigi were the spokespeople for a series of exclusive diamond jewelry from Perles.

“It’s you and Mr. Royden. Don’t you know about that?” Sally was confused too.

Jean gasped. No wonder I had such a peaceful sleep last night. It turns out that terrible news is waiting for me. God granted me a peaceful sleep to prepare me for this misfortune!

“I have some stuff to settle.”

After saying that, Jean immediately called Edgar, but the call was not answered.
