Edgar And His Destined Wife Chapter 434

Francis narrowed his eyes and asked, “What happened after that?”
“My father was declared guilty.The employees in his company ran off, and my mother…After that, my uncle sent me overseas.I only discovered recently that the ‘truth’ they told me is fake”
“Who told you?” Francis furrowed his brows.
It was not a small matter if Edgar wanted to reverse the verdict.
“I can’t tell you yet.I need the case file and evidence documented from that time.As for the rest, I’ll investigate it on my own.”
Edgar’s eyes were gloomy.He trusted Edbert too much back then and never looked into the truth.
Now that he thought about it, there were indeed many loopholes.
Previously, he was determined that Gary was his enemy and had gone to great lengths to seek revenge against him.
If his suspicion now was true, he would never be able to make it up to Jean.
Francis let out a cough.
“It’s not that I’m reluctant to show you the files, but the case has been closed for so many years.You won’t be able to find new clues even if I give you the documents.”
“Mr.Jones, I’m well aware of the authorities’ procedures.I hope you can cooperate with me.Otherwise, you might never find the whereabouts of the arms smugglers.”
With that, Edgar stood up.
“Hey, take it easy.Young people nowadays are indeed short-tempered.”
Joseph, who was standing outside the office, happened to overhear the conversation.
Arms smugglers? Is this the reason Mr.Jones is extraordinarily lenient toward Edgar Royden? He paused for a moment before knocking on the door.
“Mr.Jones, Jean Eyer’s phone is switched off, and we can’t track her location.Her phone signal was last captured at Majesty Hotel, located twelve miles away from here”
The moment Edgar heard ‘Majesty Hotel’, he dashed out of the office.
“Hey! Quickly catch up with him!”
Francis yelled while pointing at the door.

“He has important evidence in his hands, so don’t defy him.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Joseph quickly went after Edgar with his subordinates.
Three police cars followed behind Edgar’s black sports car as they sped to Majestic Hotel.
Sherry stood by the bed in the room with a cup of coffee in her hand as she looked at the parking lot outside.She took out her phone and dialed Edgar’s number.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t bring the police along.Come and see me alone if you want Jean to be safe.We can talk about some other agendas too”
Edgar tightened his grip on the steering wheel and snapped ruthlessly, “If you dare to lay a finger on her, I’ll destroy the entire Pinnacle Group.”
Sherry’s hand shuddered, but she answered insouciantly, “So what? I’m not a part of the Summer family.It’s none of my business whether Pinnacle Group is destroyed or not! After pondering it for a whole day, she decided that she had to win Edgar over.As long as Edgar was willing to date her, the plight of the Summer family would be resolved.In contrast, if she failed to win Edgar over, not only would she end up with a failed marriage, but she would also be abandoned by the Summer family.After all these years of suffering, she couldn’t possibly yield to fate.
“What exactly do you want?”
Finally, Edgar spoke up.
Sherry curled her lips.
“I want you to come and meet me in the hotel alone.Thereafter, I’ll tell you the whereabouts of the two sisters”
“Fine.”
Sherry put down her phone with a smug look.She won.
Meanwhile, Jean boarded a cruise that was heading overseas.She left in a hurry with the address Sherry had passed to her and didn’t manage to take anything else with her.
“Gigi could be dead by now.You better rush over as soon as possible.You know how many evil deeds Edbert and Sam have done.Do you think they’ll allow Gigi to survive?” Sherry said this to Jean before she left.
Jean gripped the paper tight as hatred gradually filled her eyes.
There was no signal at sea, so she switched off her phone.
The voyage would last more than ten hours.
Jean used the phone on the cruise to call the inspector.
“I have some urgent matters to attend to overseas.I might not be able to..”
“Where are you now?” Joseph snatched the phone over immediately.
“Are you by yourself? Is there anything unusual around you?”
Jean was startled.
“I’m on a cruise.Everything is normal.
“Where will you disembark? After getting off the cruise, contact the embassy immediately.During this period, don’t let anyone know that the police contacted you.Right now, look around you and observe if there’s any suspicious person.Also, switch on your phone so we can track your location even if there is no signal.”
Jean furrowed her brows as she heard Joseph’s instruction.
“Are you suspecting me? Why…Before she could finish her sentence, the signal was cut off.Following that, a broadcast was made on the cruise.
“Dear passengers, there has been an accident in the water in front.As a safeguard, please return to your cabins and do not stay on the deck.”
The passengers on the deck returned to their rooms reluctantly.
Jean put down the phone and frowned involuntarily as Joseph’s words lingered in her mind.
Everyone was walking back to their room from the deck, and she didn’t notice anyone suspicious.
She took out her room card and was about to enter her room when a voice emerged behind her.
“Miss, I need your help.”
