Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 339 False Hope

“Don’t assume that I am unaware of your tricks.” She felt a gradual, gentle squeeze as he drew in closer. He gripped her chin and threatened, “You’d better not be helping the Reece family.”

As he said this, Jean’s smile broadened. “Edgar was joking. Why on earth would I help Sam Reece?” He is the one who has actually taken the Eyer family to this point.

Edgar scowled and released his hold on her after assuming he was mistaken. As if nothing had occurred, Jean circled to a different bed, turned on the TV, and sat there. Is she acting coy?

No, something must happen. After giving her a lengthy look, Edgar’s phone started to ring. Miles was on the line. “Edgar, there are some unusual movements on Eyer’s side.”

“Jean…” Edgar stepped out of the room. Back on the cushion behind her, Jean reclined back. Anyone may purchase Reece’s shares since their business was about to file for bankruptcy. She would be the one to seize this chance if anybody would.

Although she only purchased a small number of shares, she persuaded Ben to mortgage Eyer’s real estate on her behalf and sold every antique she could find at home.

However, it was enough to resist Edgar’s acquisition. The original idea was for him to purchase Joey Davis’ shares of the company. That would make him Reece’s Group’s biggest shareholder.

But when Jean interfered, his plan deviated. The split of Reece’s shares has become complicated. “Boss, what should we do?” Miles seemed a little anxious. It will be closed soon.

If he can’t come up with a countermeasure, the previous good situation will be flawed. Edgar’s career could not afford mistakes.

In the corridor, Edgar was leaning against the wall. His slender body was draped with expensive cotton, and he wore a sneer on his lips. “She is a wildcard.”

Though he had company, their presence might disrupt his plan.

Nathan was right.

If there is a woman in this world who can truly be his match, it had to be Jean.

“President Royden, what do you mean?”

“Let her.”

Miles replied, “But…Do you want to talk to Eyer about purchasing her shares?” Miles still wanted to make amends.

It isn’t his call.

The man narrowed his eyebrows, “No hurry. Since Jean wants to play, let’s give her a round.”

While listening on the phone, Miles experienced a feeling of disgust.
