Chapter 536 Chapter 536 It was said that the calm before the storm was the scariest. However, the upheaval in the business circles in the following three days was even more frightening.
Edgar's various measures throughout the company soon showed results.
The directors and managers close to Edbert did not dare to show up in the company. They also refused to answer any call from George or Edbert.
Despite George pulling strings, he could not get Xena released from the detention center.
At this moment, Edbert sat in a black car and looked ahead coldly.
Hmph, my nephew finally wises up." He glared at the steel door. "I shouldn't have let Jean leave that place alive." Previously, he planned to keep her as his pawn for future use.
But now, he regretted his decision.

"Make sure her mouth is sealed. This matter shall end here." Edbert slowly shut his eyes and decided to remove Xena.
George seemed to have expected this.
Sure. I'll get it done straight away." George opened the door and got out of the car.
Once the door closed, Edbert smirked coldly and said, "Tony, I need you to keep an eye on that fellow. Nothing has been going well recently. I don't want someone to stabin the back suddenly.” “Yes, sir," the driver answered and drove the car toward the hospital.
The ward was spacious, so Edbert moved around in his electric wheelchair and arrived outside Gigi's room. However, bodyguards were keeping watch, so he could not get near.
Dr. Walterson, the patient in room number 502..." Please wait a moment. I'll check on her first." Andrew cover as soon as he got out of the surgery room.
The nurse paused and watched Andrew enter Gigi's room before muttering, "Dr. Walterson is so attentive to Gigi. I don't see him treating the other patients this well." Edbert happened to hear the nurse.
He glared at Gigi's door and whispered, "This gis not over yet." It was a quiet night.
Jean had a nightmare of being chased by a crowd.
Their hands were like talons reaching out for her. She could not escape them no matter how she ran. In the end, she woke up in her bed, covered in sweat and gasping for breath.
She glanced at the dim bedside lamp before getting out of bed to head downstairs for a glass of water. Content belongs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
However, as soon as she opened the bedroom door, she heard Julia talking to someone on the phone. Haven't I done well enough for this matter? She seems so tired these days. How can I return?" Jean paused and slowly released the door handle before quietly returning to bed.
Once it was quiet outside, Jean slowly went out of the room. She drank a mouthful of warm water and felt a pleasant cooling sensation down her throat. After downing two glasses of water, the tight feeling in her chest finally eased.
Julia heard noises and went to the kitchen. "You're awake?" Jean hummed in response and immediately turned around. "I was thirsty, so I cdownstairs to drink swater." She gripped her glass and hesitated. But when she was about to speak, Julia yawned and said, "You should head back to your room and sleep. It's very late. If you're hungry, you will have to bear with it. You will gain weight easily if you eat at this hour. Then, your baby might bectoo heavy, making giving birth difficult." Sure." Jean watched until Julia returned to her room and gave a long sigh.
Her phone screen lit up. It was a message from Edgar.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTve readied everything and will cto pick you up tomorrow.' Jean looked at the screen until it went out. Then, she turned it on with a tap to reread the message.
She immediately sent a reply. 'I can go there by myself.' She would only be going to the hospital to file a maternity record. There was no need to trouble anyone.
Since Edgar did not reply to her message, Jean did not think much about it and returned to her room to continue sleeping.
The following morning, she walked downstairs and heard laughter from the dining room. She saw Edgar in an apron, cooking breakfast in the kitchen. Meanwhile, Julia carried a bowl of oatmeal and laughed in the dining room.
I knew it. You two..." As Julia chatted with Edgar, she suddenly noticed Jean. She put down the cutleries and rushed to lead Jean into the dining room. "Today's breakfast is special. You must try it." Jean asked softly, "Where's Susan?" Susan took two days off to rest.” Edgar brought a bowl of breakfast oatmeal to the table. There were also pancakes, toast, and sausages.
There was so much food on the table that three people couldn't finish them.
Before Jean could react, someone had already pushed her into a chair and piled food on her plate.
Eat up. He will go to the hospital with you after breakfast. This period is critical for you and your baby. You must not be careless,” Julia nagged as she put more food on her plate.
After breakfast, Julia sent them out of the house.
"I'm entrusting her to you. If anything happens to her, I'll never let you see her baby in the future!' Edgar immediately stood alert and behaved with caution.
He opened the door for Jean and even brought her a drink.
"I'm not a pig. I've eaten so much just now. How would I have room to drink this?" Jean could not resist grumbling.
