Edgar and His Destined Wife

Chapter 397 Pretending Not to Care

Edgar immediately instructed Miles to investigate. There were results very soon. “Mr. Royden, it’s real. Ms. Eyer and Ms. Reece are indeed working with La Laux. Furthermore, Ms. Eyer is working in the capacity of designer, while Ms. Reece is the cover model for that magazine publisher.”

“The strange thing is that according to the entertainment industry’s trade rules, it seems like Ms. Reece is not very qualified, but she surpassed so many levels of restrictions and was chosen as next season’s magazine cover model. This must be motivated by money behind the scenes.” The sequence of events was very clear.

Edgar turned to look at the falling leaves outside the window. The silhouette and corners of his side profile were sharp. His thin lips slowly opened and closed. “Contact the person in charge at La Laux and find out through which connections Gigi got the job, as well as why they chose Jean.”

Isn’t she leading Eyer Group down the path of investing? Why did she change professions and become a designer?

Edgar felt that his head was hurting more. Why was it that when he wanted to get close to Jean, it felt like he understood her less? These confusing feelings made him feel tormented.

Miles was slightly dumbfounded when he heard it. Was his boss concerned about Gigi or Jean? Why did he have to investigate both of them?

“Why are you still in a daze? Do it now!”

“Yes, Mr. Royden. There’s one more thing. There are still some problems in the partnership proposal with Rukh. Mr. Mason wants to meet you to talk about it.”

Edgar looked away and said coldly, “Invite him to the hospital and tell him that I’m not feeling well.”

“… Yes.”

No one knew, but Miles had single-handedly managed all of Edgar’s admission procedures. Edgar didn’t have upper gastrointestinal bleeding. He didn’t even have a cold.

Miles left the room quietly and carried out his boss’ instructions one after another.

He also found a very reliable private investigator to secretly find out Gigi and Jean’s relationships with the magazine publisher.

After that, a few media that Edgar had been secretly instructing started to play the emotional card at the same time.
