Edgar And His Destined Wife Chapter 433

Joseph instantly ordered his subordinates to examine the scene.
“I noticed a surveillance camera at the gate.Can you provide us with the footage?”
An officer came forward to talk to Sam.
“That surveillance camera…has been broken for some time.”
Sam let out a cough.
“Both of us are witnesses, and I’m willing to settle as long as he apologizes.I don’t wish to trouble you either.Reaching a settlement was the most common way to resolve a civil dispute.As soon as Sam said that, Edgar, sitting on the couch, snorted.
“Sam Reece, I’ll ask you one more time — is what I said true?!”
Edgar shot a piercing glare at Sam.
Deep down, Sam was extremely terrified.He reckoned Jean must have told Edgar something.
Nonetheless, they couldn’t possibly have any evidence.
“What are you talking about? That is totally absurd.Don’t try to accuse me recklessly! Fine.Since you refuse to apologize, don’t blame me for not respecting you.Officer, please take him away and detain him”
The upright Joseph walked up to Edgar and uttered, “Mr.Royden, I would like to officially question you about the details.You have the right to…”
“I’ll come with you.”
Edgar stood up and cast a disdainful glare at Sam.
“I’d like to lodge a report too” Sam freaked out.
If Winnie wasn’t holding his arm, he would have slumped onto the ground.
Watching them leave, Winnie spat on the ground and hissed, “What an overbearing man! Royden Group is ina mess, yet he still dares to throw his weight around.”
“Shut up! You clueless woman!”
Sam immediately took out his phone to call Edbert, but the call was not answered.
It was only when Winnie saw Sam’s flustered look did she realize he was guilty, and Edgar would get back at him sooner or later.
She gritted her teeth in exasperation upon discovering that she had jumped out of the frying pan into the fire.

If Sam collapsed, she would have no one to depend on for the rest of her life! After a brief moment of hesitation, she walked over to snatch Sam’s phone and hung up the call.
Before Sam could raise his voice at her, she uttered, “How did you think I left here and reached the port smoothly? It was Edbert who handled the procedures for me.At this point, are you still going to trust him?”
“What?!”
“He’s merely using you to tackle Edgar.He’s most likely the one who stirred up this incident too.He betrayed you, yet you’re still thinking of tipping him off.You’re pushing yourself into the grave!”
Sam slumped onto the floor and muttered, “I’m finished..”
He was so frightened that his face turned pale.
Perceiving that the matter was not as simple as it appeared, Winnie glanced at Sam’s phone and walked up to him.
“Tell me the details.I’ll help you think of a way.”
“What ways can you possibly have?! Get lost!”
“Now, you don’t have anyone else to depend on besides me.Even Gigi has gone missing.You might be kidnapped and thrown into the sea at any time!”
Sam was stunned by Winnie’s comment.
His body stiffened as he snarled, “Edbert Royden, you jerk!”
On the other hand, Jean received a call from the police.
“Hi, Ms.Eyer.We received a report and would like you to assist in the investigation.Your cooperation is much appreciated”
Jean tightened her grip on the phone and asked, “May I know who this is regarding?”
“The accused is Mr.Nathan Knox”
“Okay.I’ll be there right away”
Just as Jean was about to leave her house, she received a call from Sherry.
The moment she picked up the call, a cracking voice came forth from the other end.
“Jean, please help me! You’re the only one who can help me now.Otherwise, I’ll be chased out of my family, and I’ll be doomed!”
This sentence sounded familiar to Jean.She gritted her teeth and uttered, “I’m sorry, but I don’t think we’re close”
“Please don’t be this ruthless.P-Please meet up with me.I’ll tell you the benefits of helping me.
“I’m not interested.”
After blurting the three words, Jean was about to hang up the call when Sherry yelled all of a sudden, “So, are you not going to care about Gigi’s safety too? She’s your only kin in this world!”
Jean halted her steps as her eyes darkened.
Sherry reckoned her words hit the bullseye, so she continued, “You can focus on designing as you wish and can protect the company passed down by your father.But what about her? What wrong has she done that she has to be abandoned by others again and again?”
“If I were you, I wouldn’t only care about myself but would think of ways to help her.She’s your younger sister.Can you bear to see her tortured to death by Edbert?”
After a moment of silence, Jean spat, “Where are you?”
Half an hour later, Edgar sat in the office of Francis Jones, the police commissioner, and checked the time again.
Joseph sat across from him with a solemn expression.
“Is she…
“She’s not here yet.My colleagues will inform me when she arrives.”
Joseph knew what Edgar wanted to ask.
Edgar furrowed his brows.
“Did something happen to her?”
Edgar stood up and wanted to dash out of the room.
