Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 552

In the next few days, Edgar went to work as usual while Jean continued to idle the day away at home.

Both of them deliberately steered away from discussions related to both Royden Group and Eyer Group. They refused to let mundane and complicated topics ruin their mood.

But not until Miles showed up at their door.

“Mr. Royden, there is a problem with Oprah Group’s project. The third-party investors alleged their design drawings were products of plagiarism and decided to pursue them through a lawsuit with the international court. As a result, the project has been suspended until further notice.”

Miles was having cold sweats, “I’ve notified Mr. Gary and his department to standby in the office to mitigate the situation.”

This project wasn’t a priority if it was in the past.

But the trend had changed, considering Royden Group was presently in crisis.

This project was Edgar’s last hope in reviving Royden Group. He couldn’t let this project go down the drain.

Edgar said coldly, “Let’s go.”

As he retrieved his coat from the hanger, he said to

Jean, “I may not be able to come home these few days. You should go back to Eyer Residence for the time being.”

“Alright.”

Jean chided, “I’m not a child anymore. Don’t worry about me.”

She walked up to Edgar and tenderly straightened his tie, “I’ll wait for you at home.”

Two pairs of eyes glinting with the reflection of each other. No distance at all.

His face bent to meet hers as she looked up. He kissed her forehead.

At the door, Miles sheepishly darted his eyes away from their lovey-dovey.

After Edgar and Miles left, Jean immediately instructed the media company she had an affiliation with to look into Oprah Group. To her dismay, the response she received from the media company was the same as what Miles had told them.
