Chapter 555

Mr. Frost, who was trailing behind Myer, tapped on Myer's shoulder. "Mr. Ben Ludwig called just now. Should we inform him that this meeting is going on?"

"Let him come over. He'll see why I stopped him from pursuing that woman. Young people like him need to learn from his mistakes."

Myer had always arrived half an hour before the meeting time when he met Edgar out of respect, but also because he had to bow to Royden Group's superiority.

He held on to this grudge, hoping that one day, he would get back to Edgar.

Although he expected Edgar to come asking for a favor one day, he did not expect the day to come so soon. He could not wait to see Edgar's conflict and dilemma now that he had power in his hands.

And yet, he felt his heart fall when he opened the door.

He stared forlornly at Edgar and Jean, who had consumed almost all the dishes, including the dessert!

How could they? This is so rude! I wished to see Edgar on his knees, begging, but now, he only had eyes for Jean. Myer groused when he saw Edgar glance at him.

"We can serve up a few more dishes that will surely satisfy you, our best customers! I'll get the menu now!" Mr. Frost tried to dissipate the chill in the room, but Myer merely stared daggers at him.

"No, thank you. Mr. Royden doesn't intend to dine with me, so I'll be going now. Thank you!" Myer replied mechanically, expecting Edgar to drop to his knees and pour apologies, but he was wrong.

Jean burped but apologized quickly. "We're done. Send us the bill."
