Chapter 338
Chapter 338 Troublemaker
Thereafter, Jean called Ben. Besides those that were reported on the news, there must be sinsider news,
and she had to obtain more secret information in order to negotiate with Edgar.
“Sam Reece is driven to the corner. He even knelt down outside the bank to beg for a loan from the bank
director, but the credit limit of the Reeces had been depleted. | believe they will be announced bankrupt in less
than three days.”
Not only the banks but many collaborating partners were also urging Sam to pay up too. If he couldn't clear the
debts, he had to file for bankruptcy.
“What about Gigi?” Jean frowned as she was worried that Jean couldn't take such a huge blow. “She has gone
missing.” Ben had been hesitating if he should inform Jean about the news. “I sent smen to search for her
but to no avail. She doesn’t even care about her son anymore.”
Nonetheless, Gigi's reaction was natural because there was nothing much she could do as an obsolete artist who
was abandoned by a business magnate.
Toward the end, the child was the most unfortunate one.
Jean bit her lips and mumbled, “Sam can’t possibly lose out everything at once. He met up with people from
Ranford International a few days ago. Didn't he gain anything from there?”
Ben was stunned for a moment on the other end of the line.
“Really? But the information | obtained is that Ranford International joined forces with Royden Group. Ranford
International participated in the acquisition of Reece Group's shares too. Royden Group might collaborate with
Ranford International on sAl projects in the future. After all, the latter is an expert in artificial intelligence.”
Wait a minute. So, Edgar has plotted everything since the beginning, and he was just waiting for a chance! He
retained the upper hand despite being set up by the others and involved in an accident. If Sam and Gigi didn’t
plot against him, he wouldn't be this merciless.
Jean tightened her grip on the phone and remained silent for quite swhile. Given the current situation, she
reckoned Edgar only brought her away with one intention - he didn’t want her to interfere with the matter and
would only bring her back after he settled with Gigi.
Jean closed her eyes slowly. “Ben, please help to find Gigi as soon as possible. I'm worried that she’ll be
harmed.”
“Edgar is only attacking them from the business perspective. | don’t think he’ll go after a woman.” Ben had
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtnever doubted that Edgar would do so. In fact, he admired Edgar to a certain extent because anyone else might
be even more ruthless.
“Even if he won't go after Gigi, it doesn’t mean that others won't. For example, Sam.”
There was nothing one wouldn't do when they were driven to the corner. Moreover, Gigi wasn’t Sam's biological
daughter, so Jean was worried that he would act recklessly out of desperation. Content belongs to

“Don’t worry, | will.” Then, Ben asked in a gentler tone, “Are you okay?”
Jean smiled. “Yeah. Don’t worry about me. I'll be back in two days.”
Although Edgar was more than a wild card, he was a man of his word.
“Alright, I'll pick you up at the airport.”
After ending the call with Ben, Jean lay on the bed silently. She needed stto gather her thoughts so that
she could gain benefits from the current complicated situation.
On the other hand, Miles cto the hotel after settling everything in Yorktown.
“Everything is settled, Mr. Royden. This is the share transfer agreement. As you expected, Sam Reece agreed to
sell ten percent of Reece Group's shares that he was holding to Ranford International.”
Obviously, Sam was desperate and clutching at straws. Otherwise, he wouldn't have trusted Joey from Ranford
International after only getting to know her for a few days. Little did he know that Ranford International had
joined forces with Royden Group.
Edgar smirked when he knew everything turned out as his plan. “Has Andy caround?”
“Yeah, he only suffered minor injuries. We've sent him to a private hospital as you wished.”
Andy was the only patient in the entire building, so they didn’t even have to send security guards to keep an eye
on him.
Once the door at the corridor was locked, Andy would be left stranded and helpless in the hospital. All that he
could do was to curse Edgar in front of the surveillance camera.
There was no way he could contact people from outside the building.
Miles had compiled a list of directors who were associated with Andy, most of whom had dealings with Andy for
their own interests.
“By the way, Mr. Edbert had met him too.” This was the only point that shocked Miles.
“Uncle Edbert?” Edgar furrowed his brows.
While he was talking to Miles in the hotel's coffee house, a manager approached him in a hurry. “I'm sorry, Mr.
Royden, can you please return to your room?”
The manager wore a hesitant look, which made Edgar think of one possible reason instantly. “What happened?”

“I... You'll know when you see it.” The manager sighed and trotted to the lift to press the button.
A few seconds later, Edgar heard a deafening singing the moment he stepped out into the corridor. The suite
room that he booked was equipped with a karaoke system. Jean maximized the volso that others could hear
the loud noise even from the outside, although the room was soundproof.
Edgar could imagine how much more disastrous it was in the room.
“Mr. Royden, she refused to open the door no matter how we knocked on the door, so we had no other choice.
Complaint calls are flying in, and I'm afraid the police will be alerted if this continues.”
Edgar lifted his hand and walked up to the door to scan his access card.
However, the door was stuck when he pushed it open halfway. It turned out that Jean had placed tables and
cabinets behind the door to block it.
Placing his hand against the door, Edgar took a deep breath to suppress his anger. “Switch off the electricity
supply.”
“But... there are other guests on this floor.” The manager was in a quandary.
Edgar shot a glare at the manager, perceiving that the manager quickly ordered his staff to do as they were told.
A few seconds later, the power supply for that floor was interrupted while Edgar dragged Jean out of the room.
Jean felt a pain in her wrist due to Edgar's grip, but she didn’t show any emotions as if she was a soulless
marionette.
“Switch us to a room without a karaoke system.” Edgar ordered coldly.
The manager was in a dilemma. All

“We only have a double deluxe room left.” Cold sweat broke forth on the manager's forehead.

“You may leave now.”
“Yes, sir.” The manager quickly closed the door and left with his staff, leaving Jean and Edgar in the room.
