Chapter 184 Nothing Is Impenetrable

“No.” Jean denied it immediately. She did not want to drag Ben into this. It was hard to tell whether Edgar believed her. He looked deep into her eyes for a moment before rolling up the window and leaving.

Jean stood still for a while before gradually heading upstairs. Her mind kept pondering on the same matter. Since Edgar knew I was going to cause trouble, why didn’t he stop me?

Jean thought about it the whole night and finally figured it out. In my rashness to punish the two directors, I have also helped Edgar to stop them from obstructing him.

That devious b*stard. Meanwhile, in Royden Tower, Miles completed the investigation and reported to Edgar confidently, “Mr. Royden, we have upgraded the security of this company and dealt with all weak spots. Now, not even a fly can get in without our notice.”

Edgar raised his eyebrows but did not say anything. At the same time, Mr. Blanc and Mr. Jameson sat on the couch in the office. They had been called to the office soon after their discharge from the hospital.

Both could not help but feel anxious. “Mr. Royden, we are the victims in this matter. You must punish her for us.”

Edgar turned to look at them. “I’ve already told you before. You are not to get involved in this matter.” “But Jean is challenging Royden Group’s reputation.” Mr. Jameson finally said something after holding back for the whole day.

At the same time, the two directors finally understood something. It turned out the rumors were true. Edgar still cared about his ex-wife and would never take action against Jean for what she had done.

Thus, the room turned unbearably awkward. Edgar had a stern expression since the directors came in.

“If you did not insist on opposing the transfer of Garrison Group to her, this would never have happened. You should thank the public relations department for containing this. Otherwise, the public would have found out about the incident and laughed at us.”

He turned his sharp gaze on them, emanating a suffocating sense of threat. “I have warned you since early on not to get involved.” The two directors looked down and felt ashamed.

They had gathered their business connections to exert pressure on Garrison Group and caused discussion in the media, hoping to force Edgar to retract the transfer. It turned out Edgar had long seen through their plans.

Even if Jean did not cause today’s incident, Edgar would still severely punish them. Thus, given a choice of punishment by Jean or Edgar, they would rather choose food poisoning by Jean.

If Edgar was the one who punished them, they fear they would not be alive at this moment. “Mr. Royden, we won’t mention this matter again and will stop pursuing it.” Mr. Jameson and Mr. Blanc promised fearfully before supporting each other out of the office.

They looked as if they were escaping from a disaster. Miles asked, “Mr. Royden, should I assign someone to keep watch on them?”

“No, that’s unnecessary.”
