Edgar and His Destined Wife

Edgar And His Destined Wife Chapter 479

As the news played scenes of Sherry being arrested by the police, Jean was getting ready to leave the hospital.
She felt she had rested there long enough.
Miles tried to persuade her to stay but failed.
Thus, he had no choice but to concede.
“Ms.Eyer, Mr.Royden’s house is now empty.Are you going to live there?”
“No, I’m returning to the Eyer Residence.”
Miles nodded and replied, “I’ll get the car ready.”
“Miles, you don’t have to follow me from now on.Since I’ve decided to stay away from Edgar, you can’t help me anymore.”
“But it’s Mr.Royden’s order”
Miles broke out in cold sweat.
Miles did not know how to explain himself if Edgar discovered he had failed his task.
“Don’t worry.If he blames you, I’ll take responsibility for it.”
Jean smiled.
“By the way, if Edbert is causing you trouble, you can take a long holiday first.”
Miles nodded in resignation.
Now that things had come to this, he could no longer bring himself to work in the company.He would only recognize Edgar as the company president.
Then, Jean walked out of the hospital alone, carrying her luggage.
She seemed alone in the world and lonely.
However, she walked firmly with every step.
The taxi’s radio broadcasted news about Royden Group and Pinnacle Group.
Recently, the business world was shaken by various incidents involving the two major companies.
The taxi driver switched the channel angrily and mumbled, “Rich people’s lives are full of trouble.”
Jean rolled down the car window and looked at the river in the distance.
Apart from the projects stated in the lawsuits against Edgar, a few other projects under Royden Group also started to have problems.
Thus, many business partners expressed their doubts about Royden Group’s cash flow and sought to terminate their contracts.

Then, more people followed suit and sought large sums of liquidated damages.
People grabbed the chance to attack Royden Group while it was vulnerable.
Edbert likely did not expect this.
All he wanted was to bring Edgar down.
Yet, his plan brought troubles for him as he was the company’s vice president.
Thus, reporters and business partners blocked Edbert when he arrived at the company entrance.
“When are you going to resolve the cases involving Edgar?”
“Why is everyone in Royden Group acting dishonestly and against contract terms? Companies like yours should..”
‘’Splat!’’ An egg flew across the air in a beautiful arch and landed on Edbert’s suit.
The crowd continued to press toward him.
Edbert had to be protected by his secretary and bodyguard as he entered the Royden Group lobby in an embarrassing state.
Meanwhile, Jean witnessed everything from afar.
She pulled down her cap and hailed a taxi to leave.
At the same time, Pinnacle Group was also in a mess.
It had recently returned to the domestic market and had yet to stabilize.
Furthermore, the heiress of the Summer family was plagued with lawsuits, and her reputation was in ruins.
Even with a lawyer helping her, her case was prolonged for further investigation.
Public opinions about this matter gave Bernard a headache.
A few business partners who planned to work with Pinnacle Group avoided them due to this scandal.
That afternoon, Jean went to visit Edgar again.
She went to the detention center alone this time.
Then, she sat opposite Edgar, with a glass between them.
No one initiated a conversation.
They looked at each other quietly for fifteen minutes.
It was as if their eyes expressed everything they wanted to say.
In the end, Jean said softly, “I told Miles to leave.I don’t need anyone to take care of me”
After saying that, she got up to leave.
Edgar’s gaze gradually turned somber.He wished to say many things, but Edbert had spies everywhere.
They even noted whom he met and what he said before reporting everything to Edbert.
Edgar got up and glanced at the surveillance camera on the wall.It’s almost time.
Once I get out of here, I will make them pay for everything.
“The commissioner would like to see him”
A police officer came into the room and looked at Edgar.
“Please come this way.”
Edgar followed the police officer.His figure reflected on the glass windows along the corridor as he walked.
“Mr.Royden, thank you for providing us with all the clues to crack this case.However, we have already finished investigating your case.How long do you still wish to stay in the detention center?”
Francis cleared his throat and continued, “We have to deal with reporters and lawyers daily.It’s really troublesome.
“I’ve provided so much evidence.Is it wrong for me to make such a small request?”
Edgar sat on the couch and frowned slightly.
“Last year, your library received my donation of ….
“That’s not what I mean.But the detention center is for locking up criminals.Your presence here violates our regulations.Thus, I formally declare that you have been released without charge.”
Edgar pressed his temple.
After some time, he finally took a step away.
“Sure, but I have a request.I hope you can keep the whole matter a secret.If someone asks you about it, you can say I’m released on bail.It doesn’t mean I’m innocent in this matter.”
Francis was desperate for Edgar to leave, so he nodded eagerly.
