Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life

Chapter 524 Chapter 524 Edbert sending Xena over simply meant he was well prepared to execute this plan. At this time, pressure from the public through the press would not work anymore.

Most of the directors in Royden Group were probably already bribed too.

What would he do next? He would most likely use Gigi to ruin their relationship once more.

Then, he would be able to distract Edgar from counter-attacking.

Perhaps, he would send someone to her too.

Jean turned around and spoke firmly, "Rachel, please invite Miles for dinner.Alone-" "Invite him?" Text © owned by Nôvel.Org.

Rachel was surprised.But she immediately understood after Jean explained.

"Alright, Ms.Eyer.I shall call him right away." "Sorry for the trouble" Rachel shook her head.

"No.He and his boss owe us this' Half an hour later, Miles sat anxiously in the restaurant. His mind was full of Edgar's orders—to find out what Jean was planning for Rachel. But he...He could not think straight whenever he saw Rachel.

"Have you been waiting long?" Rachel approached him with her bag in casual attire. She looked relaxed.

"No, no.I just arrived." Miles rubbed his knees with both hands.

He was so nervous that he could hardly speak.

Rachel glanced at him calmly and asked, "Are you hot? Why are you sweating?" "Maybe their air conditioning is not on!" Miles smiled awkwardly.

"Why did you invitefor a meal?" It would be best if he completed the task his boss gave him as soon as possible.

Rachel rested her chin in both palms and spoke gently.

"I just felt like seeing you since I'm feeling down.

"Seeing me?" Miles could feel blood gushing to his head. He could no longer hear what Rachel said.

Finally, when he walked out of the restaurant with Rachel, she asked him again.

"So, is that a promise?" Miles nodded.

Rachel immediately turned around and waved goodbye.

"Thank you." Miles swallowed his saliva hard and ran to the company.

At the stime, Edgar was surrounded by the directors in his office "Mr. Edgar, since it has been done, there is no use getting angry over it.

If we do not have any other choices, we can relocate the employees from Eyer Group or even offer them higher positions." The look in Edgar's eyes grew colder.

He slapped his palm onto the table.

At that moment, everyone shut up.

"Does anyone still listen toin this company?" The directors exchanged glances in shock after they heard Edgar's cold reply.

Edbert had given them too much confidence until they had the nerve to negotiate with Edgar.

They had forgotten how cold and ruthless Edgar could be.

He did not even care about his uncle; what more to say about outsiders like them? They dared not speak up anymore.

They only said tactfully, "Mr.Edgar, of course, we will obey your orders. But it will be good for Royden Group to acquire Eyer Group.If not, the outside world will most definitely say that we bullied Eyer Group when the truth gets leaked. The company's reputation will suffer severe damage then" "Do you mean I should use my money and position to stop every Eyer Group employee from telling this to outsiders? Will it satisfy your ego if I, a powerless person in this company, settle this matter?" Edgar gave them an icy look.

He sneered.

"I'm not a puppet like Xena." Xena stood at the door.

She could hear everything clearly. She clenched her fists tightly and bit her lip hard.

What Edgar said was indeed correct. She was now acting upon Edbert's orders.

None was solely her intention.

But as long as she was obedient, she would gain power and fame. She could be rich and would be able to buy many bags.

It was a fast lane to success in life! "Keep an eye on the situation here and informimmediately if anything happens." Xena smiled at her assistant.

"If you do not do well, you will be sacked" The assistant immediately agreed.

Xena walked back to her office and dialed Edbert's number.

After Edgar shut down the directors, they dared not talk big anymore.

"But Mr.Edgar, is there still a way to undo this situation since it has escalated to this extent?" Edgar replied harshly.

"Stop all news regarding the acquisition of Eyer Group.Announce that Royden Group will have two huge projects coming up soon instead.

Move the collaboration with Oprah Group to the headlines to divert the public's attention." "I will deal with the rest." The directors exchange glances.

"Then..." "As long as all of you remain quiet about this, it will not affect your interests. But if you continue to confuse people and stopfrom executing my plan, then we shall die together.

They still needed Edgar to earn money.

They nodded in agreement.

Before they went out, Edgar added coldly.

"My uncle is getting old. Sometimes, he cannot think clearly.It will be at your own risk if you choose to stand on his side." The directors left Edgar's office quickly after being stunned by his words. Their hearts pounded hard.

"Does Mr. Edgar know we received bribes from Mr.Edbert?" "I don't think so. He would have told us to leave if he knew, wouldn't he?" But when they thought of Edgar's fierce eyes, they could not help but shiver. "Alright, let's go.It is best if we do not interfere with their family business." Soon, Miles ran out of the elevator.

"Mr.Royden, Rachel toldthat Jean wants a vice president position Royden Group. Then she will be able hint position at the to let go of the acquisition of Eyer Group." Edgar hadn't expected this.

"Are you sure?"

Miles could hardly catch his breath as he continued, "Rachel toldthis herself. Besides, Jean wants Royden Group to sign an agreement that they shall not sack any of Eyer Group's employees. If you accept these conditions, she will not have any other objection regarding the acquisition." It would be perfect if it were true.

Then he would not need to apologize to the Eyer family.

If Jean worked at Royden Group, they would also have the chance to see each other.

At that instant, everything seemed to be going in a good direction! A spark of excitement flashed in Miles' eyes as he continued, "Mr.Royden, I've already told them that we accept." He had a triumphant look on his face.

Based on his understanding of his boss, he would agree with anything if it brought Jean benefits.

Moreover, this meant that Jean would be physically nearer to his boss.

Why would his boss refuse such a good offer? Little did he expect that Edgar didn't praise him at all.

On the contrary, he frowned and stared at Miles.

"Did you make the decision yourself?" Oops....Oops.

Miles' face darkened at once.

"Mr.Royden, are you not willing to accept the terms?" Edgar was thrilled at that moment. But he had to contain that happiness.

Experiences in the past had taught him that if he got happy too early, that woman would be able to guess his thoughts.

Then, she could wrap him around her little finger.

"Well, we will have to meet to discuss such an important matter" X
