Chapter 244 Reduced to Ashes

Jean remained silent, but he pulled her into his arms again. With an icy look in his eyes, he told Gigi slowly and clearly, “Yes. I think I’ve made myself very clear.” “What about me?”

“You challenged my limits again and again. My patience with you has completely been depleted. Do whatever you like.” With that, he walked out of Knox Residence with Jean, leaving Gigi behind with the guests.

If another man did the same thing, he would be ridiculed, but it was Edgar after all. Even though the crowd had other thoughts in mind, they did not dare to say it out loud.

Someone passed a piece of napkin to her when they saw her crying. “Think about your baby and take care of yourself.” Shaking with anger, she took a deep breath before saying, “Baby? Heh!”

She was busy spreading rumors about Jean just now; little did she know that things would turn out this way in such a short time. Good move, Jean!

At this moment, she received a call from Andy. “Come out. I’m near the mansion.” “Be a man and come pick me up here,” she replied through gritted teeth, but he remained silent for a while.

“Stop your nonsense, Gigi. I can’t be picking fights with Edgar at this time,” Andy explained as he watched Edgar’s car speed past him.

Gigi got so furious she threw her phone on the ground. I want her to die in front of me! Half an hour later, at Royden Residence, Edgar brought two bottles of wine out.

“If I’m satisfied with your answers to my questions, I will return Eyer Residence to you.” The depths of his eyes were filled with an unfathomable expression.

Jean smiled sarcastically. “Am I in a position to say anything in front of you? Mr. Royden, you are as irresponsible as ever, be it with me or with Gigi.”

“You’re right. I’ve been the same all this while.” He poured the wine into a glass and gave it to her. “You are the one who’s changed.”

The old Jean who’s gentle and sweet – where has she gone?

There seemed to be a hidden meaning behind his words, but Jean could not be bothered to decipher it.

“So, why have I become like this?” she asked him with a smile, but tears were flooding her eyes.

She had suffered enough humiliation today, yet she was still forced to recount her heartache with him.
