Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Let’s Talk About It In The Future

About half an hour later, Gigi arrived at Edgar’s villa. Gigi dropped a few drops of eye care solution into her eyes, and then briefly scruff up her hair and clothes.

She opened the car door and called out hysterically. “Edgar!” She yelled while shoving the servants who came up to stop her away.

“Get the fu*k out of my way, all of you!” She didn’t care if Andy was telling the truth, she wanted to see it for herself. She kept yelling for Edgar. Soon, he came out of the study room and stopped her from going berserk.

“How did you get out of the hospital?” Gigi alleged grievously, “You’ll just keep avoiding me if I don’t come here. I’m so scared. Is my child’s father going to abandon us?”

Edgar held back his anger and tugged Gigi out. “Are you trying to stop me from going into your villa, Edgar? Is it true that you are keeping a woman in your villa like what they say?”

Gigi dared not to mention Jean at all. She knew Jean was his soft spot and she was afraid of pushing Edgar’s ultimate button.

The current situation seemed propitious for her. All she needed was a ploy to win Edgar’s heart. Gigi was determined to wait for the right time for her to take action.

She wiped the tears from her cheeks, “Edgar, I will always forgive you no matter how you wrong me, but you must tell me the truth.”

Edgar looked back and at the villa. Then, he said aggravatedly, “You should go back to the hospital first. We’ll talk about it after you give birth.”

“That’s… that’s all?”

Gigi’s heart plunged to the bottom. Did that mean that there was a woman living in his villa?

So, Andy didn’t lie to her.

“You need to rest more for the time being.” Edgar beckoned and immediately a servant came forward to help Gigi.

Gigi couldn’t stand being ignored by the apathetic Edgar.

Eventually, she was back to her sassy and unladylike self, “I want to meet that unabashed woman that seduced you. She must be hiding in your villa! ”

She bore a huge baby bump and waddled with great difficulty. She was bogged down by the quandary she was in, and paid no heed to her unsteady movement.

She almost injured her ankle trying to barge into his villa.

“Stop causing a scene here.” Edgar stepped forward and seized her. He ignored her incessant yelling and tugged her all the way to her car. With a clenched jaw and strained voice, he said to her, “We’ll talk about it after you give birth.”

Edgar would never shy away from his responsibilities, but he refused to hurt two people at the same time.

Gigi heeded Edgar’s tumbling exasperation.

She understood that there was no point for her to keep on wrangling with Edgar.

She smiled bitterly “Okay, I’ll go back to the hospital and give birth to the baby first.”

Then, she wanted to see what else would Jean do to compete with her!

Edgar walked up to the driver, uttered a few words, and watched them leave.

He had no idea Jean was hiding behind the curtain on the second floor and watching them attentively.

He heard the sound of footsteps on the staircase when he returned from sending Gigi away.

“Edgar, was there a visitor? I was asleep but I heard some noise.” Jean yawned as she spoke.

Edgar thought nothing about it.

He paused and then said, “Not at all. Go and rest. I still have something I need to deal with.”

Jean beamed a soft smile at him. For the first time, she walked up to him and said coyly, “I want to be where you are.”

Yes, from this moment on, wherever he went she would stick to him like glue.

Let’s see how much longer would he fake himself in front of her!

Edgar looked reluctant.

“It’s just business. I don’t want to bore you.”

“I don’t mind. I just want to be where you are. Don’t you want me to be there with you?” Jean guilefully tossed the question back at him.

Edgar couldn’t say no, so he let her tag along.

“Great! I’m going to learn some really useful business prowess from you!”

And she planned to sell Royden Group’s secrets to their competitors.

She was determined to ruin Edgar and repay his deed in destroying her family and life.

This was the only way for her to ease her agony.

After resting for a few days, she reckoned that with her meager ability, it would take her too long and a lot of effort to annihilate Royden Group and family.

But it would be faster for her to perish with them.

It would be worthwhile to destroy Edgar’s promising future at the cost of her own life.

Jean could control her emotions very well. She sat in a corner and flipped through design magazines in his office. She would also wander around Edgar’s desk from time to time. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

She made sure she could be seen by his counterparts through the video conference.

She would also stare at him as if she was deeply and madly in love with him. It wasn’t to rekindle her feelings for him because she had moved on from her infatuation for Edgar.

Right now, her intention was to monitor his activity.

“This coffee is for you, Edgar.” Jean put down the coffee on his desk, but she didn’t leave immediately like she used to.

Instead, she took a mental note of the amount on the tender contract.

Just as she was going to retract her gaze from the tender contract, she noticed that Edgar had turned around to look at her. Immediately, she purposely weaken her limbs and fell on his lap.

Looking at him, she quipped with a blush, “Look how clumsy I am.”

Edgar’s eyes flickered and his voice deepened, “Be careful.”

They hadn’t had sex since the day Jean regained her conscious after losing her memories. He didn’t want to impose on her because Jean had lost her memory of her past.

Jean beamed a smile at him. She was aware that the man had stiffened up, so she deliberately writhed around before getting up from his embrace, “It’s late now, I’m going to rest. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

“Oh, by the way, do you plan to work till late at night? If so, you should sleep in the study room.”

She didn’t want to sleep with him again.

That would make her sick in the stomach.

“Okay. Good night.”

Jean smiled while closing the door.

Click.

The smile on her face disappeared instantaneously.

She rushed back to her room, took out her phone, inserted a SIM card and connected to the Internet. Then, she sent a message to Ben, trying to find out the outcome of the negotiation with Jensen.

As expected, everything was going swimmingly.

But she didn’t expect Jensen to be such a thrusting and obnoxious person. After this, she had to make a point to apologize to Zenith. Now she had no choice but to stick to her device and use the Rocher father and son duo.

Ben briefed Jean on the matter and checked on her wellbeing.

“How long do you think you can lie to him? I’d better get you out of there first. We don’t know what he would do if he finds out that you have recovered your memory.”

After all, Jean was still living with him.

Ben couldn’t imagine what would happen if Jean got busted.

Ben tried to talk Jean out of her reckless plan. Jean just smiled and said, “Edgar is a cautious man, and he has a vast connection at his disposal. He will definitely get down to it if he notices something is wrong. It is only a matter of time before he knows about Jensen.”

“Then you…”

“I’m actually hoping he would realize it’s me behind the ploy, because I am looking forward to seeing his reaction at that moment.”
