Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 310 Accused

This wasn’t Jean’s first interrogation. Nothing much had changed from her first time. She was still alone. The only difference was that her mind was much clearer.

By the time Ben had arrived with the lawyer, Jean had already signed the report, admitting guilt of intentionally hurting Gigi’s baby. With her admission of guilt and the video Gigi had, there was no chance of her getting out of this innocent.

The lawyer that Ben had brought had plenty of experience, but even she shook her head when she saw what she was dealing with. “Recently, the court has been coming down hard on abuse against children. Seeing as how you’ve decided to plead guilty, we can make a plea deal and ask for a lighter sentence. But from what I can see, it doesn’t look great for you.”

“Ms. Sprectre, is there no other way?” Ben frowned. He glared at Jean with her head down. She had not said a word at all. “You told me to take care of Eyer Group’s affairs just to get rid of me so that you could go take the blame for Gigi?”

The Jean he knew wasn’t the considerate type. How was it possible for her to help her ex-husband and his fiancé? Jean was silent.

Donna Spectre, the lawyer, sighed, “I think it’s best for the both of you to discuss things on your own first, Mr. Ludwig. The evidence may look pretty damning now, but if Ms. Eyer agrees to trust me and let me help her, I may be able to figure something out. But if she’s dead set on going to jail, then there’s no point in hiring a lawyer.”

Donna left the room, giving them full use of the time they were allowed. Jean could not look Ben in the eye even after the lawyer had left.

“Jean, what is going on? Why are you helping Gigi?” Ben could not understand. Unless she had gone mad and lost her mind, the Jean he knew could never lay a finger on a child.

Jean bit her lip. “Ben, Gigi, she’s a… She’s an Eyer.” “What?” Ben froze. Jean took a deep breath before looking up and meeting his eyes. She smiled wanly. “You heard right. Gigi is my younger sister.”

She smiled bitterly. “I had to help her. She’s the only family I have left.” She had suspected that the child was Andy’s even though she didn’t have proof.

With Gigi’s relationship with the Reeces and if it comes to light that the child was not related to Edgar at all, Gigi would have nowhere to go, which was why she wanted to get rid of the child.
