Chapter 388 Chapter 388 Waiting for the Right Opportunity Jean was bursting with fury. Not only does he trapin the house. He even keeps avoiding the matter between us. How long is he going to keephere? Jean called Rachel. "I need you to pause all the projects we discussed before and focus on the joint intelligence project instead. We must release the product before Royden Group does." Rachel answered immediately, "But Ms. Eyer, we still need to adjust many aspects of the project. If we were to cut down on time, the result would not be desirable." "Find a way to overcthem as much as possible. The faster, the better." Jean put down her phone and heard a maid knocking on the door. "Ms. Eyer, it's tfor lunch." "I'm not hungry." Jean locked the door. "Don't bother me." She took her phone and checked the day's news. It seemed the staff in Royden Group were efficient. They took down any information regarding Jean, Edgar, and Gigi. There was not a trace at all.
Furthermore, Gigi's management company announced that Gigi was recovering well. She would also accept her appointment as a brand ambassador for a high-end jewelry brand and would make a full return to acting soon.
Gigi's fans expressed their excitement about the news on the Web.
Previously, these fans were bashing Jean online for ruining Gigi's chances. Now that there was news about Gigi's return to the entertainment industry, these fans temporarily forgot about the matter between Jean and Gigi.
Jean looked at her phone screen and felt the problem was resolved too quickly.
She then opened her email and frowned when she saw the few read emails.
"Dad, what should I do?" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org.
Edgar placed her under house arrest and restricted her freedom to make her submit and tell him the truth. However, she honestly could not tell him.
How could she tell him that his uncle, Edbert, was the mastermind? Or how could she tell him that she made a deal with Edbert to take revenge against Sam? It was Sam who destroyed the Eyer family and murdered Edgar's parents.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was unable to tell him any of these.
If Edgar found out about the truth, what would becof him? Jean curled up on the couch and watched her phone screen becdull. She covered her face in despair.
That night, Gigi was discharged from the hospital with much fanfare. Furthermore, she and Sam were interviewed by reporters. Sam hugged Gigi's shoulder before the camera and cried pitifully.
"I'm a terrible father. I failed to protect my daughter." "It's my fault that she suffered so much." On the other hand, Jean wore a mask and sunglasses and remained silent throughout. Her appearance gave the impression of pain and sadness.
Sam kept talking and pretending to wipe his tears.
"Please don't ask any more questions. My daughter needs rest. She really can't bear any more hurt. So please, I beg you all to stop disturbing her life." Sam's words made everyone think that Gigi was the victim.
Soon, the news that Royden Group suppressed began to show up again. At the stime, Reece Group's shares showed signs of improving after Sam's emotional display.
Sam pleaded even more pitifully before the reporters' cameras, “We can't afford to offend anyone, so no more pictures. Please, no more pictures." Yet, despite his words, Sam made no move to push Gigi into the elevator.
The reporters grabbed the chance and kept pointing the cameras at Sam and Gigi's faces, snapping non-stop.
Jean looked at the TV screen and gripped the remote tightly. "Sam, that scoundrel. He's determined to squeeze every drop of value from Gigi." A maid brought a plate of fruits to Jean and was shocked to see the vicious expression on Jean's face.
How can someone so beautiful look so scary? "I want a roasted duck for dinner tonight.” Jean headed to her room right after saying that.
Edgar can forceto stay here however long he wants. After all, I can get many things done without doing them myself.
For example, spreading rumors.
At this moment, Edgar arrived at a hotel overseas.
As soon as he got off the plane, he checked his phone to see if Jean had left him any threats. However, there was not a single message. There was not even a missed call from her.
It meant that after Jean found out he had left on a business trip this morning, she could not control herself from contacting him.
This unbothered attitude made Edgar unhappy.
"Miles, what's the situation in the country? Has she made any move?" Miles had long expected Edgar to ask this. He immediately reported the information he had prepared.
"In that case, what did she do all day?" "According to the maid, Ms. Eyer had eaten and enjoyed herself at home. She did not do anything. Moreover, she seemed in a good mood and appeared relaxed." Edgar furrowed his brow. SeaR*ch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Miles observed Edgar's expression after he finished giving his report and added cautiously, "Mr. Royden, isn't this good news?" Miles felt guilty about Jean as he could not answer her calls yesterday.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that Jean had given up calling Edgar, he could finally relax slightly. His workload was also reduced. However, Edgar suddenly instructed, "Get someone to watch her around the clock."
He was sure that Jean was not the sort of person who gave up quickly. Her compromise today did not mean she had thought things through or was willing to reveal the truth to him. She was most likely up to strouble.
Although he knew sof the trouble would be directed at him, he could not help but worry for her.
He pressed his finger between his brows. "I need you to arrange for someone to watch her. It's for hen busine. Kot the safety. I'm not sure how long this business trip will take. I need to secure this project to have more persuasive power in dealing with the internal strife in Royden Group. We must win this war." Only Miles, who closely followed Edgar's side, knew how physically and mentally exhausted Edgar was during this period.
He was not deliberately ignoring the internal issues in Royden Group, nor m did he tolerate Andy smearing the company's reputation. Instead, he was waiting for the best opportunity to bring down the troublemakers once and for all. There would only be one chance.
He needed to battle his way out of this mess.
Otherwise, he would never bear to leave Jean at hby herself. He knew this matter, and the scandalous news involving Royden Group previously was planned by someone.
Edgar suspected a few people but needed tto prove his suspicion. Sometimes, pretending not to care and letting the enemy drop the bait was a necessary tactical move.
It was helpful to lower the enemy's guard.
He had no idea whether Jean would turn everything upside down once she began to cause trouble.
"You should get srest. We have a meeting tomorrow." Edgar was tired. He waved his hand to dismiss Miles. "Yes, Mr. Royden." Miles nodded and left Edgar's room. He hesitated before pulling out his phone to message Rachel.
