Chapter 282 Obsession

“Things are exactly what you see. I have nothing else to say.” Edgar uttered in an indifferent tone. He had yet to recover his composure from Jean’s behavior just now.

He had never seen her defend him in such a stern manner. It felt as if he had found the relationship he was missing.

“Don’t you play tricks with me, Edgar Royden. I’m well aware of the affairs between you and Jean. She hates you to the core. How could she possibly be together with you again? I heard loud and clear how your servant addressed her.” Ben scowled as he tightened his grip on Edgar’s collar.

He couldn’t keep his cool anymore at the thought of Jean staying with Edgar these few days.

Why?! In order to approach Jean, I gave in to my parents and accepted the responsibility to manage the company. I learned how to be strong so that Jean didn’t have to suffer with Edgar. But is this what I’m getting in return?

Ben’s chest heaved heavily as he burned in anger. Glaring at Edgar, he lifted his fist and punched him right in his face.

This time, Edgar bit the bullet and did not dodge Ben’s attack. Blood oozed out from the corner of his mouth, but he wiped it off gently with his finger.

“Tell me!” Roaring and glaring at Edgar, Ben almost lost his rationality.

“She lost her memory.” Edgar lifted his head to look at Ben. His eyes looked so profound that one couldn’t perceive his actual thoughts.

“What?”

Edgar cast a glance upstairs. After ensuring that Jean couldn’t hear their conversation, he walked to the couch and poured two cups of tea.

Then, he filled Ben in on the incident. Besides the entanglement between Melody and the Royden family, he did not keep anything away from Ben.

After hearing what Edgar said, Ben’s face turned as pale as a sheet. He shook his head in disbelief and mumbled, “That is impossible. How could she possibly forget all that has happened? It must be you…”

Edgar gazed at Ben aloofly and spat word by word, “I can’t guarantee other things, but I can say that I’m not any less concerned about her than you.”

At once, Ben was at a loss for words.

Only after taking over the company did he realize that Edgar had been helping Jean to protect the Eyer family. Especially, after Eyer Group changed its name, Edgar had secretly spent a lot of effort to help Jean establish her position in the industry without her realizing it.
