Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Threatened

“What’s that smirk about?!” Gigi bit her lips in anger when she saw Jean’s smile. “Nothing. I just thought you were guilty of cheating on Edgar; that’s why you haven’t been able to keep him all this while.”

“Nonsense!” Gigi retorted immediately, but her voice was obviously much weaker than before. Besides, she subconsciously glanced backward with a guilt-stricken look.

Jean narrowed her eyes as she was more assured of her assumptions–Gigi was cheating on Edgar. Tsk. I’ve never imagined that Edgar would one day be two-timed.

“I’m going to sleep in this room anyway. Get lost now!” Gigi forcefully pulled Jean out of the room. She knew the guest room downstairs only had a single bed, and she could only be at ease if Jean had stayed there.

However, Jean did not respond to Gigi. Frustrated, Gigi fumed, “Quickly get out already!”

Jean shook her head. “What about you come in, and we can sleep in the same room?”

I’m not going to let Gigi get what she wants! Suddenly, Gigi had a brainwave and directly took the blanket from the guest room. “Fine. I’ll sleep here tonight!”

Since I can’t chase Jean away, I should at least stay in the same room as her, so I can keep an eye on her and prevent her from seducing Edgar at night.

Jean smirked and reminded Gigi, “Don’t forget that Edgar and I are enemies.”

The next second, Gigi placed her hand on her abdomen as she recalled how Jean taught her a lesson in the ladies restroom. She gripped the blanket and warned, “Edgar is not going to let you off if you

dare to lay a finger on me!”

“Oh, is it? I thought there were some problems going on between you two,” Jean said while lying down on the other side of the bed.

Her comment hit the bullseye.

Later, Jean took out her phone and typed a message for Ben. ‘Did the operation go well? I’m handling some matters and will visit you after this.’

However, the message couldn’t be sent out for some reason.
