Chapter 380 She’s Mrs. Royden

“Mr. Royden?” Miles knocked on the dock manager’s room door. “Gigi has been found and sent back to Reece Residence.” Edgar had been staying here all day and night since the ship went missing.

But it was not his choice. More accurately, he had been confined here. It was the same for Miles. They were planning to board the ship that evening. Edgar even rejected all business matters so that he had time to explain things to Gigi.

Since he wished to continue pursuing Jean, he needed to clear all obstacles. However, he did not expect someone to knock him out and confine him here.

Who in the city would dare to do this? He did suspect a few people, but on further thought, none of them seemed likely. His stern expression turned threatening. He had experienced something similar since he rebuilt Royden Group.

“Mr. Royden, I have arranged a car here. Let’s return first.” Miles was worried about Edgar’s health. He had neither eaten nor slept for a day and night. Even a healthy person would not bear it.

Edgar said slowly, “Is there any news about Jean?” “Ms. Eyer…” As Miles was answering him, the door suddenly burst open. Jean rushed into the room and hugged Edgar.

She pressed her head against Edgar’s chest and cried profusely. It seemed she was letting out all the pain and sadness she had experienced all this while.

Edgar was stunned. It took him a few seconds before he hugged her back. Jean did not let go of him but continued to cry.

Miles immediately left the room to give them privacy.

Edgar frowned as he looked down at her. “Please don’t cry.”

His heart ached. He had never seen her like this.

Jean kept sobbing. Her eyes were red and swollen. She let go of him and looked at him for a while before asking, “You said you wanted to marry me. Is the offer still open?”

“Yes.”

Edgar held her fingertips tightly but did not speak anymore.

She stood on the tip of her toes and kissed his lips.

She prolonged the kiss and placed all her effort into it until she nearly ran out of breath. Then, she flung herself into his embrace again.

“I…”

But before she could say anything else, Edgar flipped them around and pressed her against the wall.
