Chapter 214 Malice

“Mr. Royden, will you still be going to the office?” The driver asked in a low voice as he could clearly feel the drop in temperature in the car.

“No,” Edgar said and opened the car door. When the concert ended, Jean wished that it could go on forever.

Her liking of the band used to be because she admired them. After going through so much, it was a different feeling when she listened to those songs again.

Ben was beside her. “Let’s go.”

Jean said, “Mm. There’s a café downstairs. Let’s go there. I have something to say to you.”

Jean sat on a seat by the window, and she smiled a little. “During this time, Ludwig Group has developed quite well under your leadership. I saw it on the news.”
