Edgar and His Destined Wife

The reporters swarmed at Jean when they saw her walking out of the hospital.

“Which ward is Mr. Royden in?” Jean flung on a mask to cover her face and reticently sidestepped the hounding reporters.

The news about new personnel to assume the role of president of Royden Group had just been released.

Unless someone had jumped the gun and tipped off the media in advance otherwise, the reporters couldn't intercept her at the hospital readily.

“Edbert, you think you have us under your thumb.

The truth is you don't." Unlike her father, Jean refused to be used as a pawn by anyone.

Jean immediately notified the media company she had an affiliation with to refute all the scandals on the Internet.

She asked Rachel to buy Royden Group shares from the other retail investors.

“I'll go to the office now." In advance, Jean instructed Rachel to sort out the company's accounts as she intended to sell the company to Edgar in the hope of concluding their convolution and entanglement once and for all.

But the plan had to be aborted now.

She was determined to make Edbert pay for what he had done to her family.

She wouldn't let anyone stop her, not even Edgar.

The next morning, the news about Edbert's failed surgery had disseminated to the public.

Meanwhile, the hospital was unable to elucidate the incident to the media.

A whistle-blower revealed that Edbert's daughter was seen quarreling with Jean in the corridors of the hospital.

As a matter of fact, the climate of opinion was overwhelmingly leaning toward Edbert's daughter and against Jean.

"Mr. Royden, the situation of our company is stabilizing now, and the board of directors hasn't expressed anything concerning that.

On the contrary, Xena is the problematic one.” Miles reported, “Eyer Group has hired a lawyer to sue Xena for defamation’ Edgar paused as he held on to the car door.

A hint of blues flickered in his eyes, "Anything else?” Miles uttered as he glanced at his phone, "Xena has been calling me nonstop after attempting on yours but without a response all night.” "Change a new number” Edgar got into the car, and before he rolled up the car window, he said to Miles, "Do not bother with anything today.’ "Okay.

Edgar started the car engine and departed to Eyer Residence.

Miles looked at the disappearing car and secretly hoped the rest of the day would turn out in Edgar's favor.

But as expected, Edgar was rejected again.

Jean shunned Edgar and deliberately ignored his phone calls.

The latter stood and waited in front of her door, whose countenance cautioned the passersby to point or stare at him.
