Chapter 278 Back to the Beginning

“That idea is too dangerous!” Nathan clenched his fists tightly. “You’d better think twice.”

Edgar lowered his gaze. After all, he clearly understood Nathan’s concerns. In fact, he even thought about it in the long run.

For example, if Jean remained like that, how would he respond when she asked about Gary, and how would he deal with her career?

He would prepare the answers for those questions, but no one knew how long such days would last.

“Let’s put aside everything else. Melody’s company issued a statement about her disappearance. According to the rumors, she had gone abroad with a male fan.”

Edgar’s eyes flickered sharply. “Impossible. I believe she’s still here.”

He had already double confirmed with Brigid – the woman who brought the doctor was Melody herself.

“She put so much effort into taking revenge on my family. And now she’s got the opportunity to do so.” With that, he smiled coldly.

Since she has the guts to hurt my family, she has to bear the consequences.

Nathan knew that a storm was about to come from the look in his eyes.

“If there’s anything I could help, don’t hesitate to contact me. But, I hope you’ll think about the plan you have for Jean.”

That afternoon, the truth behind the cruise ship accident was being reported, and one of the interviewees was Melody, who claimed to be missing.

Through the phone, she accepted the interview from the reporters.

“I’m sure this accident was intentionally planned by a mastermind. Many people were injured, including Edgar’s ex-wife, Jean. She was also on the ship, and she’s in a dire state right now.”

As soon as the news was reported, Susan ran out from the kitchen immediately and turned off the television.

She looked upstairs anxiously, and Jean walked out of the room right at that moment.

“What’s wrong, Susan?”

“N-Nothing!” Since Jean didn’t seem to have heard the news, Susan heaved a sigh of relief.

As soon as Edgar returned in the evening, she pulled him aside. “Mr. Royden, this isn’t a long-term solution. Your divorce was reported in the news again. The cat is going to be out of the bag in no time.”
