Chapter 390 Mad Words

Edna gave Jean her personal contact details before they parted. “Opening a design company is a serious matter. Moreover, the design field has been quite tumultuous recently. Ms. Eyer, if you have any ideas on this, we can arrange a time to have a good chat in my office.”

Then, her smile grew even more apparent. “You won’t have to go through Mr. Ludwig to reach me next time.” “Yes, Ms. Jadot. Let’s meet again.” The meeting came to a happy end.

Jean hardly ate anything but did not feel hungry at all. Instead, she felt energized. Moreover, the gloom from being confined in Edgar’s villa disappeared.

“Jean, you seem different today.” Ben could not help but sigh. “I almost thought I had returned to the time we were students. You were also like this then and cared for nothing else as soon as you got to talk about design.”

Since the beginning, Ben was sure that Jean was meant to be a designer. Unfortunately, she chose to get married and leave designing behind.

Jean chuckled and said, “Ben, if not for what I’ve been through, I would never be this determined to fulfill my initial dream. I believe everything in life is fated with the aim to make us better people.”

Ben was glad that she could think of her life this way.

“By the way, I’ve secured the venue you asked for. The rest depends on you. I’ll be going to a branch company for inspection and will probably be away for a few months.” Ben looked into Jean’s eyes. “I hope you will have gained your footing by the time I return.”

By then, he would have been formally made the president of the Ludwig Group. He could secure his position using his achievements in the past six months and fully take over the company from his father.

Once that happened, he would be able to confront Edgar head-on.

Furthermore, he would not allow anyone to bother Jean anymore.

Jean looked up and met his resolute gaze.

She suddenly smiled. “Yes, I’ll do my best.”

“About later, will you…”

“I’ll return to Edgar’s villa.” Jean picked up a fork and began to eat. “There are still unresolved matters between us.”

Ben opened his mouth to say something but decided against it.
