Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 121 Chapter 121 She Didn't Annoy Him Hearing Jean Eyer's name, the affluent ladies were noticeably less excited. "Her? MON & Co.'s standard has really dropped." "I heard that her ex-husband and her..." "I think I saw Gigi Reece just now. Is Edgar Royden here too?" It was the easiest to pique the curiosity of others with minor gossip like this. Halfway through the show, Gigi Reece was so distressed that she was about to cry in the washroom.

"Edgar, I beg you, please cpick me! My stomach hurts." This wasn't the first tshe used the child as an excuse.

On the other end, Edgar Royden just finished a meeting. As he was walking out of the office, he heard a sound coming from his Bluetooth earphones. He furrowed his brow, and his already cold face grew heavier.

"The driver will cpick you." "No, Edgar. You have to cpersonally, okay?" Gigi Reece was practically begging him, her voice extremely timid. She heard footsteps outside while she was speaking, so she quickly hung up.

The call ended abruptly, and Edgar Royden frowned. Nathan Knox, whom he had made an appointment with earlier, drove over. Seeing his expression, Nathan Knox asked, "Something up?" "Cwithsomewhere. Miles, you can get off work." "Alright, Mr. Royden." A supercar drove out of the Royden Group parking lot after that. The sound of the engine swept across the street.

Reaching the entrance of the show, they saw the pictures and names on the billboard. “Jean Eyer's here too?" Nathan Knox felt that there was more to it.

Edgar Royden wrinkled his brow and made his way up the steps. Nathan Knox shook his head. "It's been over a year. Why can't she learn to be a little quieter." If Gigi Reece was more perceptive, or if she knew how to win Edgar Royden's favor, she would've been the lady of the Royden Group by now.

But she deliberately couldn't let go of Jean Eyer.

Nathan Knox followed Edgar Royden in. The show inside was coming to an end. All the designers and models were on stage.

The audience was filled with admiring applause. Everyone could see the influence of MON & Co.'s big show. "I think the part with the bracelets was pretty good. It was quite innovative." "That Jean Eyer really has talent." Edgar Royden's footsteps paused. His gaze couldn't help but be attracted to the figure on stage. The figure was standing under the spotlight with a quiet, gentle smile, and her eyes were shining with light.

That was the true Jean Eyer.

She'd always been so brilliant and radiant. Even when standing among models and celebrities, she was not at all inferior to them. Contents belong to Both their gazes met in that instant.

The man raised his eyebrows but realized that it was like Jean Eyer didn't see him. She didn't move her eyes away quickly, but a strange look cover her face.

The fist under his sleeve slowly tightened. Someone cfrom the side to go on stage and give the designers flowers. The one who was at the very front was in fact Ben Ludwig! He took off his baseball cap in public and gave her a bouquet of flowers while smiling. "Congratulations, Jean Eyer." Jean Eyer's hand dropped in midair. She couldn't help but reveal a surprised smile. "Why did you not tellyou were here!" "Sorry, I clate." Ben Ludwig was referring to what he wanted to explain to her.

Jean Eyer didn't reply. She would talk to Ben Ludwig properly, but the occasion before their eyes wasn't appropriate.

"Thank you to all the designers and models. Please rest for a while, our auction will be starting shortly! We will auction off five masterpieces from jewelry designers..." As all the designers were going offstage, Ben Ludwig followed Jean Eyer.

Edgar Royden stared at both their backs, an unknown fire flaring in his heart.

"Edgar." Gigi Reece cover right after with a look of joy on her face. "Edgar, thanks for coming to pick me." Edgar Royden looked at her and slowly pulled his hand away. "Didn't I tell you not to cto crowded places?" Every pregnant woman should know to rest and take care of their developing offspring.

But Gigi Reece was too eager for quick success. She had to use her position as Mrs. Royden and flaunt about it. He knew about it all along but just never stopped her.

Gigi Reece pursed her lips and said coyly, "I'm sorry, Edgar, I..." "Your stomach hurts, right? Let's go now." Edgar Royden turned and wanted to leave.

But Gigi Reece couldn't let go of such a good opportunity.

"Edgar, they said there'll be an auction. Let's stay and look for a while, alright?" A smile broke out on Gigi Reece's lips. “Just a while.” Even Nathan Knox, who was at the side, could feel Edgar Royden's displeasure.

But Gigi Reece kept badgering Edgar Royden and wouldn't let him leave right up until the auction started.

Nathan Knox looked on as Edgar Royden was dragged to a seat. Edgar Royden held his head impatiently. Even as his friend, Nathan Knox could tell that Edgar Royden didn't like her at all.

If it wasn't for Gigi Reece being pregnant...

When this thought cto him, Nathan Knox immediately coughed. How could he be as gossipy as those people.

The designers walked out from backstage. Ben Ludwig was still by Jean Eyer's side.

He kept looking for a chance to explain things to Jean Eyer.

But Jean Eyer didn't answer and focused her attention on the stage. Ben Ludwig could only suppress what he wanted to say in his heart.

"Let's sit here?" Jean Eyer nodded. Once she sat down, she felt a sharp gaze. She turned her head to look and so happened to see Edgar Royden glaring at her.

She was taken aback. Did she annoy him? Jean Eyer frowned and turned back, her attitude still distant.

Edgar Royden kept tapping his knee with his finger. This was what he used to do before he lost his temper.

Nathan Knox noticed this, but Gigi Reece was still thinking satisfactorily about how they could show off their love and let everyone there know that she's the real Mrs. Royden. She completely didn't notice Edgar Royden's change in emotions.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for waiting. Here's our first auction item, MON & Co.'s lead designer, Sky & Co.'s lead Wilton's item. He couldn't be here with us in person, what a shame.

This is a diamond necklace..." "The opening price is three hundred thousand." Once the host said that, people started bidding.

In no time, the necklace was auctioned out.

"Our next item is the bracelet that was modeled by Melody Chance, and is a perfect interpretation of ourm thtonight: This Eye of the Queen shines like stars in the sky. Although its value is not as much as the Heart of the Emperor, but it's also the pride of our company. Starting bid, five hundred thousand." Jean Eyer just cto her senses. No wonder the bracelet looked so familiar. It was also by the sdesigner as the Heart of the Emperor.

"This is what you're in charge of?" Ben Ludwig suddenly asked her.

Jean Eyer replied, "Mm." The next moment, he raised his bidder's card. "Six hundred thousand." Jean Eyer was startled. "You want to buy this?" "Mm, to give to you." Ben Ludwig's gaze was unbelievably steady.

Jean Eyer rejected him reflexively. "I don't want it." Ben Ludwig let out a sigh. "Other than money, I don't know what else you lack. Furthermore, I don't think I have much left to offer." Jean Eyer was tickled by his deliberate expression. "If your mom knew you were such a prodigal son, she'd hit you." "You're not angry anymore?" Before Jean Eyer could reply, a voice cfrom behind. "Seven hundred thousand." It was Edgar Royden!
