Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 376 Another Suitor

Hugo was frank about his intention. His honesty caused Jean to hesitate about refusing him. After all, he did all this for his daughter. He was no doubt a good father.

Furthermore, those documents were what Eyer Group needed the most. Unlike expensive jewelry, these documents were priceless treasures. Jean hesitated briefly.

She only needed to act with him. Then, they would each get what they needed. She also noticed that Ellie rarely expressed her feelings to anyone, but she could not understand why Ellie liked her.

Judging from Hugo’s character, Jean knew he would never make such a request unless he had no choice. Susan was anxious when she saw Jean remaining dazed for a while. “Ms. Eyer, I shall take my leave and head back first.”

Jean finally came out of her daze. “Sure, Susan. Please be careful on your way home.”

Susan smiled and recalled the present she saw. She hesitated for a while before asking, “Ms. Eyer, do you have another suitor?”

She was worried that Edgar would lose his chance to be with Jean.

Jean knew what Susan was thinking.

“I guess so.”

Susan’s smile faded considerably. “Ms. Eyer, you should rest early.”

Jean watched Susan leave before closing the door. She believed it was high time to forget the past. Even if Susan told Edgar what she said, Edgar would be too busy to do anything.

Memories will fade with time.

No one is fated to be with anyone in this world.

Jean suppressed the unfamiliar emotion and headed to the second floor.

Suddenly, her phone rang a few times. She frowned and shut the door with a thud.
