Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 316 Chapter 316 He Insisted on Getting an Answer "For the past two weeks, Andy has been under the control of the police. He doesn't have the ability to prepare anything, and Sam is an old fox. It takes more than the ordinary person to schagainst him." What kind of person wishes so badly for Jean to take on the criminal accusation? Gigi? Edgar's face darkened. It wouldn't be her. She didn't have such meticulous schemes. There was only one possibility left.

No lawyer was willing to defend Jean. This was something she had expected early on. After all, no one would be willing to destroy their reputation. Three days later, a hearing was officially held in court.

Because Gigi was a public figure, the case was carried out in a semi-public manner. When Jean walked into court, many people started to curse at her angrily.

"She's so evil for laying her hands on such a small child!” “You don't deserve to be human!" Gigi wore a pair of black shades and sat in the stands. She adjusted the frof her glasses and put on a grieved look.

It was just that Edgar didn't accompany her, nor were the Reece family around. Jean sat down directly across from her. She listened carefully as Gigi accused her of her 'crime' in front of the judge.

"She's the ex-wife of my husband, Edgar, and she's always been jealous of our relationship. She's also been to my house and the hospital to disturba few times after I got pregnant. I have the old videos as proof. She's the reason I have postpartum depression." "I also stayed at a mental hospital before I gave birth. I have witness testimonies for all of this.” The judge accepted the evidence that she submitted and started to question Jean. “Defendant, you don't have a defense attorney. You can defend yourself against the charges that the plaintiff has brought up against you. What do you have to say?" There was silence in the courtroom.

Gigi raised her eyes to look at Jean. At that moment, there was a trace of an indifferent smile on the corner of her lips.

She would win.

Just like before, she would personally send Jean to prison! Jean didn't say anything from start to finish. The judge said again, “Defendant, did you hear what I said?" "Your Honor, sentence her to jail!" "That's right. We don't need to listen to her explanation. Sentencing her to jail is the only way to ensure that our society is peaceful and harmonious." There was an uproar in the courtroom. The crowd had been incited, and they pointed to Jean agitatedly as they kept shouting.

"Silence." The judge cried out loudly a few times but there was still no use.

In the end, the court could only be adjourned. The judgment would only be made after two days.

When Jean walked out of the courtroom, she was alone. She saw Gigi surrounded by a crowd of people. "Don't be afraid. A woman like that would definitely be punished by the law." "Is your baby alright?" Even if it was a passerby, they would feel like Gigi was particularly deserving of sympathy.

Jean looked from afar before turning and walking out from the corridor at the side.

Suddenly, a figure greeted her. Before she could cto her senses and avoid him, he had already pulled her to a corner behind the wall.

"Let go." Edgar stared straight at her face, and his voice deepened gradually. "I knew that you would definitely walk over here secretly." Jean pursed the corner of her lips and didn't say a word. Her hands kept struggling.

But she still couldn't break free from Edgar's force.

"What did the judge say? Court has been adjourned, hasn't it?" There was an expectant look on his face.

Jean looked at him strangely, and her eyes were flashing with questions. Even if Edgar had immense power, he couldn't manipulate the court's decisions.

"The evidence that Gigi provided is inadmissible. You are the biggest problem, but you can't admit to the crimmediately. You have to wait for public opinion to build before it's the best tto reach a verdict." He actually managed to make such a guess? Jean immediately braced herself and shook her head. "I don't know what you mean!" "Why are you protecting Gigi?" His eyes had already seen through everything. No one other than Jean could foresee the situation so accurately.

He just didn't understand why Jean wanted to help Gigi. Did Gigi have sinformation on Jean? His fingers grabbed Jean's chin, and he said in a low voice, "There are many reporters outside at the moment. You know what will happen if I shout." Jean was dumbfounded. She looked at the man and chuckled.

Before he could say anything, she immediately rushed forward and covered his mouth. "Don't!" Other than protecting Gigi, she wanted to draw a line between them. If there were reporters who caught them together, all her hard work would go to waste.

"Then tellthe truth." He gripped her wrist forcefully with one hand.

Jean bit the corners of her lips ferociously. "Let go offirst." "No way." Edgar insisted in a deep voice. "Don't tellthat you're going to marry Ben. I won't believe you." "I..." Jean opened her mouth and suddenly thought of something. "I did, in fact, lay a finger on the child. It's what I did. Of course, I have to admit to it." Edgar must have seen the video that Gigi recorded.

His eyes darkened. "You're not that kind of person. Stop lying." For the first time, Jean felt like this man was annoyingly stubborn. Why couldn't he believe the situation that she had personally set up? It would be disastrous for both of them if the truth was revealed.

In fact, everyone would be dragged down.

"If I investigate, the truth will appear sooner or later. When the tcomes, don't blme.” He said as such, and his voice grew colder. All he wanted was for her to tell the truth. Was it so difficult? She trusted Ben so much and would tell Ben everything, but she kept everything from Edgar so well.

This difference in treatment made Edgar very unhappy.

"Letrepeat myself. I have nothing to admit. Furthermore, that is between Gigi and me. You have no Gigi and right to interfere." Jean pushed him away with force and broke free from him. Edgar was distraught. He stared at her as she was about to leave.

He blurted out, "I've registered my marriage with her. Her affairs are my affairs." Jean's body shook, and she clenched her fingers into a fist.

"Are you willing to tellif that's the case?" Edgar repressed the distress in his eyes as he walked over one step at a time. "Why?" Jean gritted her teeth and slowly turned around.

"Then I have to congratulate the two of you." Edgar's brows furrowed. He didn't have such intentions, but it was too late. No matter what, he had to get an answer from her so that he could help her.

"Tell me." Jean looked down and pondered for a moment. "I really want to be together with Ben and draw a line between us. That's why I want to help Gigi." "Is it that simple?" Edgar wrinkled his brows and stared at her.

"It is that simple. If you don't believe me, go back and ask Gigi." Jean didn't stay back. She turned and left.

Edgar watched as her figure vanished around the corner. His eyes were ice-cold. She's lying.

Even if there was any contract between them, Gigi wouldn't fulfith her role as agreed. At the end of the day, Jean would be the one to bear all consequences. She would be sentenced to prison.

Edgar took out his cell phone and dialed Ben's number.

Right now, the only person who might understand this affair would be Ben.

Edgar made his intentions clear, and Ben turned him down at once, "m won't betray Jeanhie. You looked for the wrong person." Contents belong to A cold breeze greeted Edgar as he spoke slowly, and it made Ben change his mind.

"Do you want to see her ruin her life?" X
