Chapter 382 Chapter 382 Hurting Each Other It happened a few times before. Sam took her somewhere while she was asleep and let disgusting older men have their way with her. Gigi clenched her fists. She pulled out her phone and searched for a number.
“Let's meet. I need to tell you something about Jean." Edgar spent the whole day with Jean. He accompanied her to have any food she wanted and did anything she liked to do.
"Don't you have to go to the company?" Jean saw him going to the kitchen to get more food and immediately tried to stop him. “I've eaten more than enough. I can't eat anymore." Edgar turned around and looked at her briefly before saying, "You should eat more and gain sweight. That should stop other men from desiring you." Although Jean could have changed her mind and decided to be with him, Edgar realized what Nathan said also made sense.
Jean smiled and accepted the apple he pushed to her. "Sure...” Susan was busy in the kitchen and could not help but smile happily as she listened to their conversation. "This is wonderful. Mr. Royden finally settles down with the right person." Who would have known that a disaster would lead to happiness? Suddenly, Edgar's phone buzzed. He looked at the screen and frowned.
Jean smiled understandingly. "Don't mind me. I'll go and watch TV." "All right. I'll be back soon." Edgar headed to the study on the second floor to answer the call. His expression turned cold as he listened to Miles' report.
"Are you sure?" His voice turned hoarse, and his eyes becshrouded with conflicting emotions.
"Mr. Royden, I've checked it many times. Ms. Eyer met with Mr. Shaw after something happened to you." Edgar's gaze beccold as ice.
He gripped his phone. After a moment, he forced out these words. "No, she would never collaborate with Andy." "Mr. Royden, this is the only possibility for now. Mr. Shaw has formally handed in his resignation application today. He even used his remaining shares in Royden Group to pay his debt to the company." Why would someone like Andy surrender? Everything seems too coincidental.
Edgar gripped his phone and remained silent for a long time.
On the other hand, Miles waited nervously for his instruction. He was worried that Edgar would do something irreversible in a fit of anger.

While the phone conversation continued in the study, Jean sat on the couch in the living room and watched for any movements from the study. At the stime, she took out her phone to check for messages.
There was only a message in French.
'Good job. Follow the plan for your next step.' Jean immediately pressed delete. Her gaze gradually dulled down.
It was late at night. Edgar remained swamped in the study with work. Jean saw Susan was still busy in the kitchen and approached her before asking softly, "Susan, I'll head hfirst." "Ms. Eyer, are you not going to stay for dinner? I'll bake a fish for you." Jean shook her head.
"There's no need. I didn't tell him either. Anyway, I'm heading off first." Jean quietly put on her coat and left by herself.
Susan stood stunned at her spot and was unsure whether she should inform Edgar upstairs.
After Jean left and shut the door behind her, Edgar soon cout of the study. He felt a chunk missing from his heart as he saw the empty living room.
"Did she leave?" Susan looked at Edgar's calm expression. He did not seem surprised at all.
She nodded and answered, "Ms. Eyer said she's heading hfirst and toldnot to disturb you." Susan observed Edgar's expression closely and felt something strange between Edgar and Jean.
"You don't have to cook dinner. I'm not hungry." After saying that, he put on a coat and went outside.
Susan frowned as she thought about Edgar and Jean's expressions when they left. "The news said they have gotten back together and are very much in love. But why does it seem different in reality?" Jean put on a cap as she walked up the steps and entered a new nightclub in the east of the city. Ben was already waiting for her inside.
Meanwhile, Edgar had followed her in his car and parked outside the nightclub.
He looked at the nightclub's double door and gripped the steering wheel. His gaze was cold and intimidating.
Then, he called Nathan on the phone. "Let's have a drink." "You've just gotten back together with Jean. Why do..." Edgar hung up before Nathan could finish speaking. Nathan shook his head helplessly and rushed to the place in his car.
Luckily, he arrived on time. When he went in, Edgar was seated in a booth at the right of the bar counter, watching Jean and Ben sit nearby.
He did not look away whenever they talked.
Nathan looked into Edgar's eyes and immediately understood what was going on.
Edgar no longer seemed like the infatuated man Nathan saw this morning. Instead, he was like a jealous husband out to catch his wife cheating on him.
"Ludwig Group recently got a few notable projects. Perhaps they are discussing business." "Why would they be discussing business in such a noisy place?" Edgar said through gritted teeth. He was on the verge of bursting into fury.
If Nathan did not say what he did in the morning, Edgar would not have observed Jean closely.
Now that he did, what he found was beyond what he had expected.

"Cough, they have always been friends. It's normal for friends to meet up for a drink in the evening." Nathan tried to comfort Edgar. "You would also sometimes meet with business partners for a drink." Original from Nôvel.Org. Edgar did not say anything but glared at Nathan.
Nathan shut up immediately. "What I said is true." Meanwhile, Jean sat near the dance floor and saw a lead dancer shaking her body on the stage. "Is she Sam's new lover that you toldabout?"
"Yes, she's not from this city and frequently met with wealthy men m Furthermore, most of the men she met with are married. Sam is among them. It seems she is quite fond of him." Ben explained before taking a sip of beer.
He seemed unsure about how to bring up something on his mind.
"Jean, recently, you..." "Huh?" Jean turned to him. As the surrounding was noisy, she leaned a little closer to him. "What?" The gesture pulled them even closer.
The loud music suddenly stopped.
The people on the dance floor began to move around to return to their seats. On the other hand, Edgar stood up and was about to head to Jean.
Nathan immediately held him back.
"Are you going there to cause a scene? You have just reconciled with her." Nathan hated his blabbering mouth. Why did I have to say those things to Edgar? What have I done? If he loses his temper, who can stop him? "Are you tellingto watch them and do nothing?" "We don't know why they are here yet." Nathan pushed Edgar down. "Sit down first."
This nightclub is far from Edgar's villa. Moreover, Ben has always been open about his desire to pursue Jean. inthere If there were anything between them, it would have happened long ago.
Nathan quietly prayed in his heart.
God, please don't let anything cbetween them again.
However, once the crowd on the dance floor dispersed, the two people seated at the bar counter were nowhere to be found.
