Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 259 Too Much Is as Bad as Too Little

He used to struggle painfully in the swamp of hatred for so many years. Jean had been through a lot. He could empathize deeply.

He was making it up to her because of sympathy and regret. And also, a feeling that he didn’t even want to admit. If he had to elaborate on it, it would be how unwilling he felt.

He was unwilling for her to suffer the same torture. But he would never say all of it aloud in his lifetime. Even if he did, she wouldn’t believe him. “Please leave.”

Jean gritted her teeth. She didn’t want to be tricked and exploited by him.

“Never mind. You’ll figure it out.” Edgar stood up. Before he departed, he left a name card. “There’s a bidder’s conference next week. Contact this person. He’ll sort it out for you.”

When the door shut, the blizzard outside seemed to be getting stronger. Just like Jean’s heart. It was swept, and there was nothing left.

She bent her head and put her arms tightly around her head. “Edgar…”

Her voice was carried away by the blizzard outside.

The man sat in the car. A layer of vapor misted the glass. He looked in the direction of the Eyer Residence living room and didn’t say a word.

There came a text message from Nathan on his cell phone.

‘How are you planning to celebrate your birthday this year?’

Edgar glanced at it and replied, ‘I’m done celebrating.’

He braved the blizzard and rushed back to have a meal with her before twelve.

Even he himself couldn’t tell if what he did was worth it.

That night, Jean didn’t sleep much. She would remember what Edgar had said when she opened her eyes. She had to admit that what he said made sense indeed.

For the next few days, Jean worked fast.

When Zenith heard the news, he was happy for Jean. “This child is getting smarter. If Mr. Eyer knew about it, he could die contentedly.”

As soon as he said it, he looked at his son, who was beside him. “If you have the time, talk to Jean more. She has a lot of foresight in what she’s been doing in terms of operating her business.”
