Chapter 553

Jean immediately darted a victorious smirk at Edgar.

He laughed at her childish reaction, "Let's go, then."

Miles pried, "Mr. Royden, shall I still go?"

"No need. You should go and visit Rachel's mother." Edgar vouchsafed Miles a day off, "Bring some souvenirs over to make a good impression."

Miles stood in place, watching Edgar and Jean left shoulder to shoulder.

Miles murmured, "I hope I don't wound up in a rocky relationship like Mr. Royden."

That night at AOL Hotel.

Jean held Edgar's arm as they walked up the steps.

The way they looked at each other was brimming with love and tenderness.

The next second, they were interrupted by the hotel manager.

"Mr. Royden, Mr. Ludwig is already waiting for you inside." The manager walked up and courteously greeted them.

The elevator ascended and stopped on the fifth floor.

"Mr. Royden, you may head upstairs and enter the VIP dining area."

Edgar strutted up the steps with confidence and poise, all while clutching onto Jean's palm.

"Be careful."

He unwittingly tightened his grip as he said this.

Jean beamed a stealthy smile at his subliminal reaction.

As they exited the last flight of steps, they saw Ben and Ally walking towards them from a distance.
