Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 387 Chapter 387 Do as You Please Jean frowned. Her wrist was painful from his grip. However, she understood why he was angry. Thus, she looked down and mumbled, "I've made it clear to her that from now on, she and I will be strangers. I... I don't want to make things worse." It did not mean Jean relented. After all, Gigi reached her present state through her own choices. Edgar looked at her for a while and suddenly sneered.

"You still haven't answered my previous question." Jean fell silent and immediately avoided meeting his gaze. She tried to escape from between his arms. However, he would never let her run away.

He chased after her and pressed her onto the bed. Their breathing grew heavier in close proximity, and Edgar could no longer hide the emotions in his eyes.

"Jean, I want a chance for us to begin again, but I hate being lied to the most. Do you understand what I mean?" Jean turned her face to the side. She felt a sudden pain on her chin as Edgar forced her to face him.

He kissed her hard and ground his lips against hers. He only gradually let go when he tasted a hint of blood. Then, he said coldly, "You are not allowed to go anywhere until I finish investigating." Jean's heart sank slowly as she watched the door close.

Edgar kept his word and did not allow Jean to leave the house. As soon as she reached the door, Edgar's staff would stop her.

"Ms. Eyer, please cooperate." "You can't leave without Mr. Royden's permission." Jean gritted her teeth. Her lashes trembled in her fury. "This is illegal house arrest. I have the right to sue him." However, it was pointless telling them this. Furthermore, Susan never cto work. It was likely an extra measure to prevent her escape. The maid that cto take care of Jean was unfamiliar to her.

She kept a neutral expression no matter what Jean said.

"Ms. Eyer, would you like sfruits?" Jean looked away indignantly. "No, I want to see Edgar." "Ms. Eyer, dinner is almost ready. Please wait for a while." The maid did not answer Jean's question but carried out her duties so well that Jean could not pick a bone with her.

Jean pulled out her phone. No matter how many times she called Edgar, he never answered.

She tossed the phone angrily.

Meanwhile, Edgar's staff acted swiftly and found everyone involved in the matter in less than a day.

Those people confessed their wrongdoings. However, they could only be charged with car theft due to insufficient evidence. None of them could be linked to a major crime.

Any evidence that would point to that had been destroyed.

"Mr. Royden, that is all we can investigate," Miles reported with a frown. He saw Edgar's expression darken instantly.

However, he had no choice. They had investigated all they could.

In the end, they could only conclude that the mastermind was cunning and acted swiftly to wipe out all evidence within such a short period.

"Andy would never be able to do this by himself." Edgar's eyes flickered. He tapped his fingers on the table.

Miles offered Edgar his phone. "Mr. Royden, Ms. Eyer has called forty-three times. Are you not going to answer?" A voice message flashed on the screen. Text belongs to Nôvel.Org.

Jean sounded furious.

"Edgar, if you're still alive, pick up the phone! How dare you keep hiding from me? If you don't show up now, I will cause a scene in Royden Group." Then, the phone rang with her call again.

Edgar looked at the screen and paused briefly before sliding his finger across it to hang up the call.

Even Miles could not help but be shocked. Edgar had shown almost endless patience for Jean, but it seemed he was truly angry with her this time.

Edgar gripped the pen and said softly, "All I want is for her to tellthe truth. Am I wrong?" Miles looked down and replied, "You're not wrong, but Jean likely has hardships." Edgar suddenly turned to Miles. "If this were Gigi, would you think she is scheming something?" Does this mean I've always been biased against Gigi and treated her differently? Miles did not say anything, but his expression indicated his answer.

Then, Miles said, “Mr. Royden, you have a video conference in ten minutes. Mr. Oprah hopes to boost the second collaborative effort between our companies." Edgar nodded slowly. "Understood." He lost the sense of tonce he began working. Furthermore, he worked on an international project with a company in a different tzone. He needed to match their tto show respect for the other company. The meeting went on for a long time. It was already past midnight when the meeting was about to end.

Edgar would look at his watch from tto time.

Even Kennedy Oprah noticed he was not as focused as usual.

"Mr. Royden, do you have to deal with another matter? We can adjourn this meeting." Kennedy trusted Royden Group's capabilities after he began working with it. He had collaborated with many companies in his country, but Royden Group's ability to cooperate and complete the project was second to none.

Thus, he was willing to do anything to secure such a good collaboration partner.

However, Edgar smiled and said, "It's nothing. Let's proceed." By the tEdgar finished work and returned to Royden's family villa, it was nearly sunrise.

He thought Jean was asleep. He took off his shoes and was about to take off his coat when a figure rushed out and pushed him against the wall.

He could smell the fragrance of Jean's body. That was why he did not fight back.

Instead, he let her push him outside.

"Edgar, you...” He raised his hand and pulled her into his embrace.

Their eyes met, and their anger was apparent in their eyes. Howeverm Edgar dgar managed to force down his rage. He held her wrist and said, "It's late. Let's talk tomorrow." After saying that, he pushed Jean aside and went into the bathroom alone.

The large villa felt unbearably quiet. Jean bit the corner of her lip. I waited for him the whole day. Is this all? She could not accept it and dashed upstairs.

She pushed the door and rushed in, but he was already taking off his clothes.

"Do you want to bath together?" Jean was rendered speechless.

She immediately ran out and slammed the door.

Since when did he becsuch a ... Smooth talker! Jean kept thinking about those two words. She kept feeling Edgar was not like that in the past.

Then, she returned to her room and covered herself with a blanket.

It was pointless to keep hiding.

She decided that she needed to have a good talk with him tomorrow. If he kept her under house arrest, she would not hesitate to act against Royden Group.

By morning, she realized she was sorely mistaken.

Edgar did not stay the night but took a flight overseas. He would be away for a week.

Jean suppressed the desire to scold someone and told Miles sternly on I will the phone, "Tell Edgar will tear down this house if he doesn't return now."
