Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 220 The Reason of Heartache

In the conference room. Edgar fixed his cold-eyed stare at the marketing manager during the analysis presentation. His menacing and cold aura had everyone in the conference room sitting on pins and needles.

“At the moment, besides Eyer Group, we have analyzed and shortlisted a few companies that we think are qualified to undertake this project. Among them are Reece Group, Ludwig Group…”

As the manager spoke, he could sense a menacing attention looming toward him. Edgar gazed at him while lifting his head slightly. Edgar might have darted him an indifferent gaze but there was pronounced intimidation in it.

The manager was terrified. The laser pointer almost slipped out of his hand as it was shaking uncontrollably. All the other managers cast him a commiserating gaze.

In such a sensitive time, it was unwise of him to bring up Eyer Group in front of Edgar. Andy was the only one who dared to push Edgar’s button. “Carry on.” He said with a chuckle while leaning backwards.

The manager wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, turned around, and painstakingly resumed his presentation, “The strength of Reece Group is…”

He was still talking on his point when…

The door of the conference room was abruptly pushed open, and Jean appeared in the conference room. “Wait a moment!” Everyone was distracted by her exclamation.

Edgar’s eyes were on Jean. He stared at her with his mysterious and compelling eyes. The way he looked at her made her uneasy. It was reasonable for him to be upset since she showed up in his company uninvited, and disrupted their meeting.

But she had no choice but to try her luck, perhaps it would work out. Fortunately, Edgar didn’t call the security guards to chase her out but only stared at her.

Jean quickly entered the conference room and said, “The contract between Royden Group and Eyer Group hasn’t expired. This means that Royden Group has no right to unilaterally terminate the contract.”
