Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 295 Stop Asking

She stared at the man who was surrounded by the villagers. She felt repulsed by his hypocritical behavior. He ruined someone’s family. Yet he was still living a respectful and reputable life. What right has he got to enjoy this?

Jean bit her lip, and walked over. “Mr. Royden, you really are a kind man. Can you tell us why you came for the opening ceremony today? Didn’t you come just to save your company’s face and reputation, rather than for the sake of these children?”

Her words caught the people’s attention. Jean’s smile widened. “Everyone, it is true that the Royden Group has sponsored Hope Elementary School. But he has used your gratitude as a tool to make more money. That’s a fact too. Don’t you feel any shame or guilt seeing their sincere and thankful eyes?”

She wanted to expose Edgar’s act of pretense and make it known that he’s a hypocrite! The best talent this man had was putting on a show.

The villagers were puzzled. “How can you say that, miss? Mr. Royden has always been our savior.” “This deal is really good. Just a few hundred thousand and Royden Group gets a good reputation.” Jean gritted her teeth with hatred.

How can he deceive these guileless people? As soon as Jean finished speaking, Mr. Jevin came. He grabbed her and scolded, “What do you know? You’re just an outsider! Now scram!”Then Mr.

Jevin shouted loudly, “Mr. Royden is the one who made it possible for the children in our village to attend school. That way, they will be able to earn money to buy food in the future! We must thank him!”

“Thank you!” The shouts drowned out Jean’s words earlier on.

She looked at Mr. Jevin with disbelief. Before she could open her mouth and continue, Mr. Jevin had already pulled her aside angrily.

“It’s the opening ceremony of this elementary school today. I shall not tolerate any trouble from you if you dare cause any.” Mr. Jevin’s face was red with anger.

Jean was even more puzzled. “I heard everything last night. You’ve known him for a very long time, so naturally, you would think fondly of him. I’m not here to cause trouble for no reason. I’m speaking the truth.” “That’s impossible. He……”

“She’s indeed speaking the truth.” Edgar walked towards them sternly. Jean tried her best to remain calm. “Mr. Jevin, you see. He has just admitted it himself.”

Mr. Jevin glanced at Edgar. “Do you know this girl?”

Edgar smiled and nodded. “I know her very well. So you don’t have to worry that I would bully her.”

Jean was taken aback.
