Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 448

Jean's heart was racing as she watched the car disappear from view.She turned to head back into the station, but a horde of reporters surrounded her.

"Ms.Eyer, was Gigi really involved in the crime? Was she arrested?"

"Did she have anything to do with the incident with Sam Reece?"

They shoved their microphones into Jean's face as they badgered her with questions.

"No comment."

Joseph arrived just in time and pulled her out of the crowd.He took her to their office on the first floor.

Jean sank into the couch.She could still hear the reporters making a fuss downstairs.

Gigi had retired from the entertainment industry for a while now.

It did not make sense for them to be so zealous about her current popularity.

Someone was most likely behind this.

And she had one guess as to who that person might be.

"Ms.Eyer, could you elaborate on that incident you mentioned earlier on the phone?"

Joseph placed a cup of tea in front of her.

Jean was as stoic as ever.

"Officer Bunnings, I told you I'll give you all the evidence I have.You have my cooperation as long as you can promise me one thing.I want you to guarantee that he receives the harshest punishment for his crimes.I want Sam to spend the rest of his life in jail"

"We will try our best to.."

"You must have seen the papers I sent you.He has killed more than one person."

Jean got to her feet.

"Thank you for the tea and for looking after Gigi’s case."

Jean was gone before Joseph even had the chance to say what he had prepared.He caught up to her.

"Ms.Eyer, there's actually something else I need to ask you.Have you met anyone from the Rothschild family before?"

"No.Her expression gave nothing away.

"Does this have something to do with the case?"
